Canada is in the midst of the greatest oil and natural gas development In her history, according to 8. W. Fairweather, vice president of research and development of the Canadian National Railways. The Alberta district, Mr. Fairweather says, is today one of the ;:BOSt active areas of oil exploration |ta the western hemisphere, with Edmonton the "oil capital" of north- North America. ^ > • concise, chronological report "Mi the Canadian oil development. Ilj'complete with maps and charts has *'*'* '^fsst been Issued by the Canadian National Railways. In "The Geography of Oil and Gas in Western ^ Canada," Mr Fairweather traces the development from the first oil discovery in the Turner Valley in 1914 np to the present unprecedented activities. Mr. Fairweather fixes the be- Stating of the present Canadian oil ••boom", to the discovery of light oil near Leduc, 18 miles south of Mdmonton, In 1947. In less than a year, developments proved the presence of a major oil field extending from Leduc across the North Saakatchewan River to the Woodbebd district Up to the end of .^_ilA49. drilling in this field alone has "^r^Aadkatai a reserve of 150 ntillloa 0:' feM A barrels of oil and 500 billion cubic feet of natural gas. Since the Leduc discovery, the railway economist declares, oil of a similar Quality has been found "almost all around Edmonton"; at Joseph Lake, Whitemud, Golden Spike, Barrhead, Bon Accord and Redwater. The Golden Spike discovery well is remarkable for a thickness of oil-bearing formation that exceeds 500 feet. The Redwater field, with an indicated reserve of S00 million barrels, Is the largest oil pool yet discovered in Canada. Pincher Creek, south of Calgary, has the deepest successful well ever drilled in Canada. It was recently brought Into production at 12,500 feet with a record potential of 83 million cubic feet of wet gas per day. The Lloydmlnster field, situated astride the Alberta-Saskatchewan boundary, which came into production in 1943, still constitutes the largest known reserves of heavy oil In Canada., ^ Exploration • Is nowf spreading Into the sedimentary areas of British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and northern Alberta, Mr. Fairweather says. Oil in quantity was recently discovered by Imperial Oil. Ltd. at NormandvlUe, SO miles south of Peace River and 210 miles north of Edmonton. .

Hqwever, one of the stipulations tbe Red Cross makes is that a X&ped-off area be designated ag a Me place for the children to be I trained and where they can be restricted by the guards. There las never been such a roped-off area in Wonder Lake, although there are such areas at every other beach in the county, maintained by the beaches or subdivisions. Such an area means that it is a safe distance and that boats are Hot allowed within.

The float3 < were placed ia the water at regu lar intervals and anchored with cement blocks. Two days later, when the classes met again, all of the ropes anchoring the floats had been cut and the floats had drifted away or been taken.
