Welcome Wagon NEW YORK = MEMPHIS « LOS ANGELES TORONTO PHONE 807 Acquilla Lands In Heap Of Trouble, . Ends In Hoosegow It only required a short thirty minutes, last Feb. 5, for Acquilla Georing, of Scotland, Ontario, to run smack dab into more trouble than most men have to contend in a lifetime. In town court last Thursday, provincial police testified that Acquilla had impersonated an officer, shown his heels to a police cruiser at 85 miles per hour, barely avoided hitting an officer, crashed into four cars and sent six people to hospital, and pos- sessed liquor illegally. Acquilla's problems were quick- ly solved by Magistrate Kenneth Langdon, who sent him off to jail for 30 days on a reckless dri- ing conviction, and tacked on a $10 fine, or ten days, on the liquor count, It all happened this way, police told the court. Acquilla alighted from his car on No. 2 highway near Aldershot and informed Captain Ward Binkley, of Ortona. Barracks, that he was a police officer. He then proceeded to give Capt. Binkley what-for about his driving. He then hopped into his car again, and soon afterward Provincial Officer Harry Wilson saw him scooting along Queen Elizabeth Way at 85 miles an hour. Wilson radioed Provincial Officer John Bunce, who was near the 7th Line stoplight, and Bunce promptly waved traffic 0 the side of the road and pre- pared to stop Goering. But Acquilla beat 'the officer to the punch with a four-barrelled shot of his own. Roaring down the pavement, he swerved, nar- rowly missed the astonished Bunce, crashed the sides of four cars, and slightly injured x startled motorists therein.

Amateur interior decorators too often fail to realize that there are many practical factors to consider when dealing with that vari-colored protective fluid, paint. If you are renovating an old home, or if you aren't too impressed with the kitchen color scheme in your new home and have an irresistible yen to do some- thing about it, you would be well advised to settle down in an easy chair and give the job at hand a bit of forethought. Before grabbing a brush and wad- ing in, just mull over these simple but important painting tips: 1. A good quality paint is very important, and should be thoroughly mixed before use. If it needs thin- ning, thin SPARINGLY with tur- pentine. But don't start to swing that brush until you have made cer- tain that the surface is spic and span--iree from oil and dust parti- cles. Before you apply the paint, pour most of it into another con- tainer, then thoroughly .stir what- ever solidified pigment may remain in your original can, then pour back and stir again. Then "box" the paint by pouring it several times from one container to another. And always remember to pause from time to time, while paniting, to stir against lumps, thus assuring a smooth uniform coating. Always follow the directions of the manu- facturer. He has prepared his pro- duct, and is much better equipped than anyone else to give advice on its use. 2. Always use a good quality brush of sensible size. Never try to get into tight corners with a big brush, or cover a wall with a small one. And if the brush is new, it should be given a 24-hour soaking in linseed oil before putting in paint. 3. Don't be in too big a rush. Allow plenty of time between coats. enough to permit the paint to dry hard and firm. Interior painting should be done when the air is warm and dry, and with plenty of air cir- culating. 4 When selecting your color schemes from charts, bear in mind that the color of the finished job annual project for several yes, This year, chairman of the direc) mail canvass is George Do while the campaign treasurer |i H.
