Monthly birthday parties will be held at noon instead of 3:00 p.m. to include all residents and possibly help with meals. This arrangment will be tried for a few months to see if it is a benefit to the residents. An updated list of items needed in the hospital was received. Members will discuss possible purchase after Fall Fair. Final plans were made for Fall Fair October 16 in the Legion. Replies have been received from many local organizations, individuals and church groups offering to help make the day a success. Hopefully our goal will be reached to purchase the Flexible Sigmoidoscope needed in the Hospital. The next meeting will be October 25 fire won't wait - plan your escape How much time would you have for escape if you were awakened tonight by the sound of a smoke alarm warning your of a fire in your home? Less than three minutes. Often, it's closer to one minute, because by the time a smoke alarm is activated, a small fire could already be on its way to becoming an inferno. In a real fire, time is measured in seconds. According to Alberta's Fire Commissioner, Tom Makey, nearly half of all fires in Canada occur right at home. While most of us know the safe escape routes in our offices and schools, he says, too few of us take the time to plan an escape from our own homes. Too often that's a fatal mistake. Three minutes isn't a long time, especially when you consider the majority of fatal home fires break out when people are asleep and most vulnerable. But research shows that early detection and warning, combined with a well-rehearsed escape plan, can add precious time. And in a fire, seconds count. AU home escape plans should begin with the installation of smoke alarms.

Unger R.R. 1 Olds, Alberta Any person wishing to receive written notice of the hearing must submit a written request, quoting our file number to the undersigned within 14 days of the publication of this notice: Planning and Appeals Administrator Alberta Planning Board 18th Floor CityCentre. 10156 102 Street EDMONTON, Alberta T5J 4L4 / Jlberla PLANNING BOARD 40-1tc The Gazette tained and working smoke alarms are the least expensive, and most effective, fire safety devices we have. But an alarm can only warn you of a fire; it cannot save you unless you know how to use the early warning to escape. The first step in an escape plan should be to determine two exits from each room in the house, particularly bedrooms, since most fires occur at night. Many households find it best to involve all family members in drawing a floor plan, showing the paths of escape from each room. Planning two escape routes could save your life if one exit is blocked by smoke or fire. Take extra time at this stage if older, handicapped, or very young people live in your home. This is the time to decide who will be responsible for helping them in an emergency. Once the plan is mapped out, try a walkthrough. This helps emphasize the exact route everyone should take in an emergency, and it lets you test the plan's feasibility. Can everyone open the windows easily? Are any of the exists obstructed by toys, furniture or other heavy objects? Can children, elderly or handicapped individuals navigate easily to the exits? Spotting these problems during a walk-through could be a life-saving exercise if a real fire every broke out. Then, establish a meeting place, away from your home, where everyone will go to wait for , firefighters to arrive.; Assign one person the .job of calling the firfi department from a neighbour's telephone. When the escape plan has been developed, and everyone knows two ways out of each room, hold fire drills to practise both routes. For the first drill, pretend everyone can use their primary exit; usually that's a door, leading from their bedroom to a hallway and then to the outside. Start with everyone pretending to be asleep with the bedroom doors closed (a closed door will hold back deadly smoke and fire). Then, someone should activate the smoke alarm NOTICE OF ELECTION LOCAL AUTHORITIES ELECTION ACT (SECTION 11,35,46) LOCAL JURISDICTION: COUNTY OF MOUNTAIN VIEW NO. 17, PROVINCE OF ALBERTA Notice is hereby given that an election will be held for the filling of the following offices: Office(s) Number of Ward or Electoral Vacancies Division Number (If Applicable) Councillor for Division Five 1 5 Voting will take place on the 19th day of October A.D. 1992, between the hours of 10:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m. Voting stations will be located at: Poll 1 - Bearberry Community Hall Poll 2 - Sundre Senior Citizen Recreation Centre DATED at the Town of Didsbury in the Province of Alberta, this 29th day of September A.D. 1992.

But the air near the floor will be fresher and cooler, so practice sliding out of bed and crawling to the door on your hands and knees. Gently touch the door knob. In a real emergency, the knob may be hot; fire could be right on the other side. If it's cool, brace a shoulder against the door, turn your face away and slowly open the door a crack. If no smoke enters and no fire or smoke are visible, open the door and exit by the normal route. For your first drill, pretend your escape path is clear of smoke and fire. You can crawl out of the house, assemble at your meeting place, and then evaluate your plan. Immediately after your first drill, hold a second. This time assume your primary exit is obstructed. When the alarm sounds and you crawl to the door, pretend the fire is blocking your exit. Open the door a crack, as before, but this time imagine smoke or flames are near. Slam the door shut and head for your alternate exit, usually a window. (If your alternate exit is a second story window, consider purchasing rope or chain escape ladders, and make sure everyone knows how to use them.) Assemble at your meeting place, and again, evaluate your plan. In both rehearsals, stress to all household members, they must not go back inside, a burning home/or waste any time gathering valuables or belongings. Apartment dwellers should hold fire drills, as well - preferably involving all the tenants at the same time. And remember, in a highrise, always use the stairs as an emergency exit; never use the elevator. Building codes have been designed to help keep smoke out of the Wednesday, October 7, 1992 child welfare review near completion Alberta's Children's Advocate is drawing an end to the lengthy public consultation process which began nearly five months ago as part of a review of the province's Child Welfare System. But there's still time to participate, according to Advocate Bernd Walter. I'll keep hearing from people as long as there is a substantial interest. I won't reject any particular submission or refuse to have a meeting strictly on the basis of time constraints, said Walter in an interview this week. The consultation is a key component of his review of the province's Child Welfare System which cares for some 7,000 children under age eighteen. Walter said because people continue to come forward, he is still making appointments with, and receiving written submissions from people and groups concerned about the Child Welfare system. Already he's attended more than 150 private meetings, participated in more than 300 phone conversations, and received more than 300 written submissions. stairwells, and an elevator could take you right Ut the scene of the fire. The Fire Commissioner maintains every household should practice an escape plan jit least once a year; more often, if possible. Escape plans should be practised over and over until they become second nature, he says. There is no time to second-guess anything when you're faced with a fire emergency. A well rehearsed plan can give you a head start . . . and in a fire, seconds count. Because all interviews and submissions are confidential. Walter is careful not to cite any details that could identify his sources or breach their trust. However, he says the nature of the comments he's received indicate that the issue of greatest concern is how effectively the system is working from an organizational point of view. It's .... issues of coordination and how difficult it can be for a family with a problem on their hands to access needed services, that are the number One concern, he said. Hundreds of individuals and groups, such as children in care, professional social workers, associations, academics, foster parents, adoptive parents, and treatment professionals have come forward to share their opinions and experiences in an effort to make this the most meaningful and effective review possible. The next step is to draft and submit his analysis, recommendations and report to Family and Social Services Minister John Oldring. The Minister in announcing this review has said that the results of the review will be public, said Walter, adding I'm confident that people will have access to the information. But Walter cautions that ultimately it's up to the people involved. the ones concerned about the system, to let their government know how importasnt these issues are to them.
