The Flambeau-Turtle Flowage area where we stayed is really ivhat one would call "God s Country." No one can tell us that the Badger state isn't wild any more. There may be more people now than there werte twenty years ago. 'but there are also more animals. We.saw deer everywhere, even had a young buck come around ougr cabin every day. He would eat out of your hand and seemed to be most fond of a little ten-year-old lady in the next cabin.

These grim statistics were disclosed by Ed Mongeon, Red Cross director of safety servces for sixteen midwestem states, in a statement giving suggestions * for preventing boating accidents. Mongeon pointed out that there are now 7,100,000 small recreational boats on American inland and coastal waterways. with an estimated 35,- 000.000 devotees of the sport. He said, "Outboard motor boats are greatly in the majority of small crafts. The great popularity of the sport and resulting accident hazanls turn many a weekend pleasure cruise into tragedy." Mongeon listed the following safety rule^J which can prevent most boating accidents: •. 1. Stay ashore in bad or threatening weather. Learn to recognize signs of storms so that, when out in a boat, you can return in time when bad weather threatens. 2. Don't "over-power" your boat/ Many boats carrying the Outboard Boating Club of America plate telling the maximum horsepower the boat's outboird motor should have. If your boat does not have such a plate, consult a reliable marine dealer for the information before buying your outboard motor. 3. Don't overload your boat. One adult passenger to a seat is considered a good rule of thumb. 4. Avoid sudden or excessive bursts of speed. 5. When in trouble, think-- uon't panic. For the sake of boating safety, Mongeon also listed the following points: 1. Know how to swim. 2. Before leaving shore, tell someone where you're going, and then stick to this cruise plan. 3. Provide a life preserver for every passenger. Insist that non-swimmers wear a life preserver when in your boat. . 4. Equip your motor boat ajsb with oars, an anchor and line, a fire'extinquisher, a first aid kit, a whistle for signaling, and, if you go out at night, flares for signaling too. "Most boats will float when swamped or capsized," Mongeon pointed out, "Boat owners should look to 4 their boats as ^ a safety device, and if it is floating after an accident, by all means stay with it." The Ameriean Red Cross has special small craft safety courses which are offered to all at no charge in the interest of public safety. These courses cover recommended methods of small craft handling and "rules of the waterways." Boat owners are advised to contact their local Red Cross chapters for further irtformation about the ARC Small Craft Program. . SENSATIONAL RIDE Four "space wheels, ing as high as a 10-story building and billed as the "most sensational ride ever devised," will be part of the huge midway at the Illinois State Fair, Aug. 8 to 17. The Velare Space Wheels were recently* completed at a cost of nearly a quarter of a million dollars. The brilliantly lighted device can ride 96 persons at one time. It takes a crew of 15 men to erect and operate the wheels which weigh a total of 45 tons.
