accidents and fatalities occurring in the field have been steadily declining in ontario tor the past few years it must be remembered that this is happen ing in spite of the greatly incre ased use of firearms in marshes and uplands there is no doubt this improved safety record is tna direct result of an intelligent approach to hunter safety train ing by the department of lands and forests adopted in the late 1950s under the hunter safety train ing plan all applicants for gun licenses who had not previously been issued a gun license are required to take a hunter safety training course as prescribed by the department these cour ses are conducted by fish game clubs throughout the prov ince and successful candidates issued a certificate by the course director c c an of training is specified by govern ment regulations by this means thousands of young hunters have been successfully trained and have proven the effectiveness of this type of educational effort in order to give more assist ance to the fish and game clubs in the valuable work they are do ing and also provide a more ac cessible examination service the department of lands and forests will open official hunter safety examination centres in january 1968 under new regulations anyone wishing to obtain a gun license without previously having been issued one can go to a depart ment of lands and forests ex- amin centre and take- the test without necessarily taking a hunter safety training course if be is successful in the test he may obtain a gun license if not he must take theprescribedhun- ter safety training course and again take the examination the basic rules of safe gun handling have been printed thou sands of times and taught to thousands of people in hunter safety training courses through out ontario observance of these safety- principles is the only way to cut down needless hunting accident treat your gun as if it loaded at all times never point a gun at anything you do not intend to kill keep the safety on until rea dy to shoot never run n carrying a loaded gun unload your gun before cross ing fences other obstructions or rough ground police report another accident involves motorcycle
