Rising in anger, the Lion's paw dropped on the Mouse. 'Please let me live," begged the Mouse, *'and, some day I'll do as much for gout 'Shortly after, the Lion was caught in the net of a hunter. He tireggled and fought and struck blindly, until his spirit and strength were bepKen, and he lay helpless and dying. The Mouse, recognizing his roar, came up, gnawed and nibbled the rope and' gave the King of Beasts Lis life. : The Mouse taunted the Lion for r.diculing the idea of his ever be- ing able to help him; and remind- | ed him that it was possible for cien a Mouse to confer benefiis on a Lion. This fable illustrates in a strik- ing manngr what real service means; and from it we learn the lesson that everyone, young and" old, rich and poor, strong and weak; is fit- 'tedi'te take an active part in the work of conserving the lives ana iesources of our people. Especially is this obvious with regard to the prevention of fire. The talents, with which we are endowed be they great or small, «an be used for the benefit of our fellowmen. i No matter how young how enex- perienced, how' insignificant our physical strength may appear to be: or how small a part we may be as- signed in the cast of life's drama, we 'have potential resources that can be applied to help and benefit others, Self-satisfaction: and content= ment with present conditions is a most dangerous factor in the life of 'an 'individual, a community or a nation. No great thing has ever beén done without a vision. It has been well said that there éxists in every community the forces and the ability to solve that community's problems. They may be and fre- quently -are undeveloped, but they are none the Ta there. These forces must be sought out stimu- lated, trained amd developed, and then applisd to' problems of the community, Efficiency follows or- ganized effort. "Wastefulness" is one of our be- getting sins, and fire waste--eighty per cent. of which is preveniable-- is an economic grime; caused prin- cipally by pLarelessness and 'indif- ference. ate The five hundred and Tify miil- Ron dollar annupk fire \whste of the North American continent is a contributing factor 'to the high cost of living. To make up this amount of money an indirect iax is levied on every man, woman and child in the country. It is assess- ed on everything we eat, drink and wear through . insurance premiums, collected and distributed by the in- surance companies, which makes it plain that YOU PAY and that the fire losses are gradually, but none the less effectively, impoverishing the country, for that which is burnt is irretrievably lost. Two out of every three fifes oc- cur in our homes, which is a seri- bus matter to contemplate, when we consider the housing problem and stupendous |- amps rh the high cost of building 'material. It is yesterday's dirt that always starts the fire. The factories and industrial plants are, however, re- sponsible for the big losses, Ap- proximately five per cent. of the entire number of fires occur in this classification and are responsibie for nearly fifty per cent. of the annual loss. 3, More than four times as many people , are burned to death every year in Canada as are killed on steam or electric railroads. The es- timated death toll caused by fire on the North American continent is thirty th8usand human beings year- ly. When the people decide to put the same energy into production and the conservation of necessities that animated item during the War, social unrest will be dissipated and high cost of living problems will be quickly solved. You naturally take pride in your city--in your home town--you want to make - it great and still greater; but to do that you must give protection to the lives of those who come to live here and to those who invest their money. Action is what counts--the world is full of good intentions and procrastination, "which is the thief of time." It steals more than ime. It steals en- thusiasm, confidence, energy oppor- tunity and all that go to make a forceful character and "a successful life, Study local conditions and adopt the best and most practical methods of preventing fire. The foilowing suggestions are necessarily of a general character and are a mere outline for Fire Prevention work, which will be found oth interest- ing and instructive, and of great economic benefit to the community, in which Wwe reside, as well as a source of civic pride. 1--A thorough inspection should be made of all homes and business places, from basement to attic, re- moving all combustible and inflam- mable materials. . Make a thorough inspection also of all chimneys, pipes, furnaces and stoves, and rem- edy all defects. 2--If your neighbor is harboring a fire menace, of any description, particularly that of gasoline, re- port the conditions to the Fire De- partment, You can.do so with an assurance of confidence. 3--If you contemplate = making huilding alterations or extensions of any kind, it would be wise to com- vly with the law. by obtaining the necessary permit from the City En- zineer. By so doing, you will, no doubt, save yourself unnecessary fu- ture trouble. 4--Doors on all public buildings should open outwards. re extin- guishers should be placed in all nublic buildings and garages of a public nature, All city offficials and citizens are requested to assist in this splen- did work, which means so much to the Dominion of Canada, and to Oshawa in particular. 1 wish to compliment the princi- pals and teachers of our public and separate schools on the Nigh state of efficiency of our standard fire ¢rill and the extreme interest which they are taking in' Fire Prevention work.

Former Premier Lloyd George, the Libera: leader, sees the dawn breaking and seemingly as vigorous as at. the erest of his power during the war. threatens a parliamentary comeback by placing 500 Liberal candidates in the field at the next election. Labor's new battle crv is "On with the surtax."" The surtax re- places the lillifated capital flevy which Labor sponsored at the las! election, The project calls for a graduated surtax beginning with wo shillings per pound upon ali incomes from property and invest- ments over £500 annually. Its ex- veeted yield is £51,000,000 annually and it is intended to abolish taxes on the necessities of life and reduce Great Britain's enormous national debt.
