Blackstock W.I. were pri- vileged to have two firemen from Caesarea, Deputy Chief Ray Gould and Fire Fighter Richard Miller, speak to them at their Jan- uary meeting. These two firemen gave a great deal of valuable information about smoke detectors, as to kinds, how they work, where to install etc., about fire ex- tinguishers, types recom- mended and use; what to do in case of fire; escape plans; preventative measures especially in regard to elec- trical equipment and etc. Among many points of vital importance are to get oneself and others out of the burning building immediately and not go back - life is the important thing - never over- load an outlet or cover a cord with a rug or carpet; if trapped in a room, shut the door, dampen clothes for your face and crawl on the floor; keep chimneys and pipes clean and know escape plans. Firemen Gould and Miller were asked and answered a great many questions and left pamphlets relating to fire prevention and also stickers for our telephones with the Fire Dept. number. These dedi- cated gentlemen, who do much voluntary work, offered to talk to any inter- ested group. Mrs. Martyn thanked the firemen for a most informative and valu- able talk and remarked that if any of us were ever in- volved in a fire their advice of how to react would cer- tainly be remembered. The ladies heartily applauded the motion. At the start of the meeting the Grace was said and a dessert luncheon, prepared by Mrs. Martyn's group, enjoyed.

New tire standards in effect Feb. 1st ..TORONTO- New stand- ards for tires used on vehicles operated on Ontario roads come into effect Feb. 1, 1982, Ontario Transport- ation and Communications Minister James Snow said recently. 'Essentially, we've adopt- ed the standards currently in use under our motor vehicle inspection program," Snow said. '""Now those standards apply to all motorists, as well as those seeking to obtain a Safety Standards Certificate." Under the new regulations; a mixture of radial-ply tires on the front and bias-ply or belted bias-ply tires on the rear will be illegal. Mixing of 50 or 60 series tires on the front with any other series mixture on the rear will also be prohibited. A combination of construc- tion types or sizes on an axle are alsp banned, unless they are equivalent by tire CLUB ANNRENE SAT., JANUARY 16th Dancefrom8:30P.M.to 1:00A.M. to "LOG CABIN BOYS" (Sponsored by Harmonize for Speech) Coming Jan. 23rd: Rick Johnson & The County Band industry standards. This does not apply, however, toa temporary use spare tire in an emergency providing only one is used. Tires cannot be smaller than the vehicle manufact- urer's specified minimum size, nor can. they' surpass maximum specified size so that they contact any part of the vehicle in such a way as to affect the safe operation of the vehicle. Tires with any wording or lettering indicating the tire was not designed for high- way use will also be prohibit- ed, including those bearing the words 'Not For Highway Use," or 'Farm Use Only," or 'Competition Circuit Use Only," and the letters "SL," or "NHS," or "TG." The regulations will also set minimum tread wear depths.

Tires with abnormal visible bumps, bulges, knots, ' exposed cord, or tread or sidewall cuts deep enough to expose the cords will also have to be replaced. And no tire can be regrooved or recut unless specifically designed for that purpose. Snow said the police will have the authority. to order a vehicle with faulty tires off the road under the regula- tions. "But we're also giving them room to exercise their discretionary powers," he said. "The new regulations enable the police to issue a special form, reguesting the driver toreplace an unfit tire and report back to the officer within 96 hours."
