the georgetown herald wednesday july 29tb 19ss r- linoleum mat montreal artist fritz brandtncr puts the finishing touches to months of work on an unusual map of jasper national park alta carved and painted on linoleum the ottby 80 inch map covers an area of some 2500 square mites and will be displayed at jasper park lodge tins summer so that guests at the cnr resort can orient themselves in the park fritz brandtncr specializes in the little practised but highly effective craft of linoleum murals the map was worked out fr g em inent topographical charts with the benefit of adviceftonrauthoritie3on canadian rockies by dorothy barker the queen of canada is a career woman this fact was brought home to me as i witnessed her complete composure but authori tative attitude toward her job du ring her recent tour it is hard work being subjected to an official tour of this vast dominion only a person well trained for such an ar duous task could stand up under the strain three times since the tour be gan however manly nature show through her slow studied inspection or inter ested attention at social functions during the early part of the tour quite unexpectedly eliza beth the home maker became en thralled with the sparkling new equipment in the kitchen of a mi ners home in schefferville que bec cest grande she exclaim ed in the soft excellent french ac cent which so thrilled the french- speaking peoples of canada mme antolne pichette preened at her queens complimentary remarks she undoubtedly vowed that her unborn child would be brought up to be a loyal subject of this very human monarch a young woman her contemporary another facet of elizabeths charm broke through formality as millions of pairs of eyes watched her on tv the obccasion was the formal ball in montreal as she waited patiently for red coated mounties to clear the floor for dancing seated fbeside her in the magnificent ballroom of the hotel named for her was donald gor don president of canadian nation al railways a noted wit and conversational ist mr gordon seemed to delight her majesty elizabeth the eter nal feminine bandied an animated conversation with him obviously exchanging quips her laughter was spontaneous genuine and re freshingly natural for those brief moments while she waited the of ficial aot of opening the ball by dancing with montreals mayor sarto fournier queen of the bri tish commonwealth elizabeth n was a lovely woman engaged in conversation with an attentive par tner the third incident which appeal ed to me as one which must have added pleasure to the trip for this royal person was the casual man ner in which president eisenhow- er ignoring the fact no commoner is ever seen to toudh her august person took her elbow firmly in his right hand and guided her to the spectacularly decorated plat form for the opening ceremony of the st lawrence seaway this gesture seemingly delighted her and elizabeth flashed ike her most winning smile continually under the guns of dozens of cameras her every ac tion being marked by hundreds of press people queen elizabeth has seldom dared to be herself to show her fatigue or any sign of discomfiture during this gruel ling tour she came to canada to do a job and she is doing it mag nificently j if it has been torture for me to keep my hair in curl my dresses in press and my temper cool dur ing this changeable temperamen tal royal tour weather my admira tion for a woman who never turns a hair under any circumstance but always looks cool and impec cable composed and controlled has ascended like todays mercury to an all time high she must have a secret inner source of en durance that i and others cover ing this tour have not yet devel oped i quite agree with those who feel that extended tours op- the nature now under way arc a form of torture no one should have to suffer during future visits to canada may this charming young woman who is wearing her charm for the most part under a cloak of proto col and formality be given the opportunity to unbend and be her self as she was in the brief mom ents recorded above investigate beore you buy or modernize our lorfovertxad sa ves you money earl

we all en joy getting off the highway and driving along some of the roads that are off the ibeaten path one thing that spoils it for many of us are those piles of trash which people insist on dumping at the roadside this recent editorial comment in the orangeville banner must surely represent the popular reac tion of many citizens these days as they flock into the great out doors for in this part of ontario far too many scenic spots have been transformed into eyesores by thoughtless garbagedumpers pre vention of this is an important aim of conservationists there is restrictive legislation in most townships and municipali ties in some cases lines up to 50 but education perhaps beginning at public school level will be per haps the most effective method in the long run of overcoming this lack of good citizenship when the powers that be are thoughtful enough to provide a place for this trash should we not cooperate the banner adds have we no pride in our beautiful country or are we just litterbugs the banner concludes its thoughtprovoking editorial by quoting this parody by tan pease life 1991 i came from haunts of coal and hern alas a fatal sally for through what heaps of junk

extension specialist doing some uuilding remodell ing work between haying and har vest judging by the inquiries at the office this pat two or three weeks it is evident quite a fcw farmers are contemplating doing some building remodelling work as soon as they are through haying with haying fairly early this year there should be a few days for doing some of this work most remodelling or new build ing work involves some cement work perhaps if you are doing some cement work a few com ments on making quality concrete might be helpful it is just as easy to make concrete of good quality which gives excellent service as to make concrete of poor quality which often gives disappointing re sults to make good concrete you of course need the four necessary ingredients water cement fine aggregate and coarse aggregate cement cement lumps that cannot be easily pulverized when struck lightly with a shovel should not be used it should be a free flowing powder when used this means that it is necessary to store cement in a dry place wafe wa that is usedljl concrete work should be clean enough to drink course and fine aggregates it is necessary that both fine and course aggregates be used since the fine particles fill in the voids or spaces between the larger par ticles gravel should range in size from onequarter inch up to about one and a half inch for most work bothhavc one thing in common they must be clean concrete is held together by the paste like j action of the cement and water on the surfacesjjf the aggregate silt clay and loam are objection able in sand and gravel to be used in concrete as they coat the particles and prevent the cement paste from bonding to them re sulting in weak porous concrete if you are wondering about your gravel here is a simple test you can run 1 put two inches of a representa tive sample of sand or gravel in a pint fruit jar 2 add water mntil the jar is al most full cover shake vigorously and set the jmr aside until the water over the material clears 3 if more than oneeight inch of silt has settled out on top of the sample the gravel is too dirty to use unless it is washed the most important thing to remember when mixing concrete is that you obtain your strength by the ratio of the water to the cement not the cement to the gravel in other words to get strong concrete you should vary the amount of gravel to get the thick ness of mix you want rather than the amount of water for most jobs such as floors y dining hall replaces one destroyed by fire two presentation marked the official opening of a new dining hall at west end

then all of the cement then all the sand and the remain der of the water and the remain ing stone the material should be mixed for two minutes curing is very important the chemical reaction between the cement and waier makes the ce ment harden so moisture is neces sary as long as the concrete is hardening which takes seven days before it is completely cured if concrete is kept damp for seven days after pouringit will be half again as strong as concrete that was allowed to dry out as soon as concrete is dry enough 60 that it will not mark it should be covered with straw the straw should be
