Clarke, Chief of the Fish and Wildlife Branch. witnessing the application should pected that upwards of 30,000 nim- rods will have been trained in safe and proper gun handling under On- tario's Hunter Safety Training Pro- gramme inaugurated in the fall of 1957. Some 6,500, mostly youths and some girls 21 and under, have been trained so far this year and 22,142 since the programme began. The safe hunting project, spon- sored by the Ontario Department of Lands and Forests, is backed by the Ontario Federation of Ang- lers and Hunters. Training is done by 3,200 instructors from the Fed- eration and other fish and game clubs across the province. Commenting on the success of the programme, Lands and Forests Minister the Hon. J. W. Spooner said: "I am most gratified by the whole-hearted co-operation. given by these instructors who give of their time and experience voluntar- ily in the cause of safety in the hunting field. The interest: shown by our young people is particularly encouraging." When properly qualified in the handling of firearms, licences may -be obtained at the age of 15. Younger students, however, are eligible to take the hunter safety training courseleading to a certifi- cate of competence. The Minister pointed out that, by an amendment to the regulations under the Game and Fisheries Act dated September 15, 1961, the pro- cedure for acquiring any resident hunting licence has been amended. As of that date, the applicant for |any type of a resident hunting li- cence must file with the licence is- suer: 1. A compietea application form No. HT 14, and 2. (a) An old licence issued to [he applicant by a competent authority or (b) A "certificate of compet- ence"' issued to the applicant by an instructor in hunter training. Where the applicant has been issued a hunting licence by a com- petent authority and. cannot pro- duce it, he may be issued a licence provided the application form states in the appropriate place the reason why the licence cannot be produced. 'It will be noted", the Hon. Mr. Spooner said, '"'that the affidavit required to prove the loss of a hunting licence is no longer re- quired' and instead a revised ap- plication form is to be used. "As the Game and Fisheries Act provides that it is an- offence to |knowingly make a false statement in an application, the amended: pro- cedure will simplify the purchase of 'a licence without losing the be- nefits of an affidavit. : "The riew regulations require that the application be witnessed by the person issuing the licence, and the issuer should ensure that this procedure is followed. Also, the person issuing the 'licence and in JOY OF SHARING Children are genérous little crea- tures .. . especially when they've got more than they really need themselves; That's why so many of them choose to "Shell Out for UNICEF" on Hallowe'en.

He was 84. Mr. Panarites emigrated from his native Greece as a young man, and after a short period in the U.S., came to Cobalt in 1907. He became well-known in the north as a restaurateur and candy maker. Generations of Cobalters bought their candy from Mr. Panarites. He made it from jealously guarded recipes until ill health forced him to retire ten years ago. Mr. Panarites operated the Rex }Candy Store until it was burned down in 1937, and then founded the Minerva Restaurant in Cobalt.

BRING RESULTS Lands And Forests Considerable progress has been made on the construction of the 23 mile Englehart Management. Unit forest road joining Highways 560 and 66. The bridge over Driftwood Creek has been completed and the hauling of 30,000 yards of gravel to surface eight miles of the road will begin soon. The road will be com- pletely surfaced by next summier. It will provide access to valuable timber, and moose hunters -should take advantage of the road as well. However, hunters should always be careful to park their vehicles so as not to obstruct other traffic. The Department of Lands and Forests fire fighting practices are among the most advanced in the world. We recently received re- quests from both Australia and New Zealand for information about how we handle water hoses. The Department has developed a ma- chine used for folding hoses, which are then put into specially designed pack-sacks. The method is very ef- ficient, permitting one man to handle 400 feet of folded hose. in the field. A moose hunter check station has been in operation at Elk Lake, at the junction of Highways 65 and 560, since the first of October. The purpose of the check is to collect first-hand information about the hunt from sportsmen. Hunters are asked to bring out the lower jaws of their moose, from which we can determine their approximate age. wise' Management. . As of Thursday morning, 90 Go- gama moose and 30 Swastika moose passed through the station, and fair hunter success is indicat- ed. Hunters passing through Elk Lake are asked to stop at the check station which is open 24 hours a day. Those~hunting in other parts of the Swastika District are requested to save us the jaws, and to drop them off at a Lands and Forests of- fice. If this is too inconvenient, call your local office, and the jaws will be picked up. om COBALT-HAILEYBURY ° CURLING CLUB : Haileybury, Ont.
