Page 2, Terrace Bay-Schreiber News, Wednesday, September 4, 1985 Good Morning! We sure have had love- ly weather this past week, it would be nice if it stayed around for a few more months, but I guess that's asking too much. As this little old lady has been on the sick list for the past 10 days, I fear my news is scarce, however I'll do my best. ' On Saturday evening the 24, the young men of the Kinsmen club came to Bir- chwood and made a most enjoyable time for the seniors. It was a real "'casino night", with several games of chance and by the sounds coming from the Rec. room, I know our residents were having a good time. A very lovely lunch was served after the games and everyone said what a swell by Helene Ballard Saturday night it had been. I would like to thank the Kinsmen for their work. You know folks, a lot of you don't really know all of the good works these young men do for Terrace Bay. Just look around and ask and I am sure you will be surprised. Instead of go- ing around finding fault with them, give them a pat on the back. Just ask the Boy Scouts about the new roof on their building, that was done thanks to the Kinsmen. Just because they don't go around bragging about all that they do, they still get lots done. so to these young men, our heartfelt thanks and keep up the good works. Remember last summer my article on "Bats at Bir- chwood"? Well; this sum= mer it's "Bees in our bon- net". Yep! We were hav- ing a nice afternoon of Bingo in the Rec. room when 3 large bees came to join 'us, uninvited! Well, this stopped the game while two of the gentlemen came to our aid and killed these pests. So far we have had '*Bats_in our belfry" and '*Bees in our bonnet", so I suppose next year it will be "Ants in our pants". Never a dull moment.

As the month of August nears an end, the © requirements on = a- statistical basis show a severe drop in the number of forest fires. Favourable weather conditions and the Ministry of Natural Resources' preparedness have kept fire loss to. a minimum this year. The manpower released will return to educational programs and hopefully these experienced men will return again next year. Meanwhile, who is looking after the shop should a fire occur? Each district retains ex- perienced crews at each location' who are perma- nent firefighters sup- plemented by some casual staff. Initial attack five man crews are available for im- mediate service. Secondary assistance is supplied by the Fire Service Organiza- tion Personnel from all branches of this-Ministry. This support system is comprised of trained per- sonnel who normally do not function as firefighters. Further, extra assistance is requested on a need basis through extra firefighters who are local citizens. The. helicopters have departed for their - home towns and basic road attack will be employed should a fire occur. The present weather could change the favourable forest condi- tions over a relatively short period of time so lets be ex- tra careful with forest fires at this time. Thank-you for your co- operation during the past season. 4 ies | "
