Many of the dangers con- fronting canoeists in the spring such " poor weather. overloading. tricky water can be overcome if a little planning is done and a lot of common sense is used. [ At this time of year, it is prudent to canoe on wa- ter that you know you can handle. If you are an ama- teur you should pick a river. flowing at a gentle speed of three or four miles an hour. so that you can learn how your .canoe responds Water safety while swimming and boating means a aaie'. hm. holiday.

Or, it you just want to practise pad- dling strokes. you should pick a sheltered bay where the water is tranquil so that you can get the kinks out ot your knees and warm up your Muscles with 'little danger of a gust of wind catching you off balance.

It is heartbreaking to know that within a two week period this spring. six canoeists in Ontario drown- ed or died from exposure when their canoes tipped. It is possible that each fatalio ty could have been prevent- ed if there had been better planning for the outing. The right water could have been selected. The weather- man could have been con- suited. A comfortable life- jacket or approved personal flotation device .could have been worn. It you do eapsize. doet't panic. Fill the canoe full of water. climb in and paddle ashore as quickly " pos- sible, using your hand, and arms to get there. The Oiitario Safety League asks you to wear an ap- proved life jacket or. per- 'sonal notation ' device wherever you canoe. w . Gr (f tt t tc; JEN YEW W?
