NEWS To those night shoppers who may have been startled by the uproar emi- nating from the lodge rooms a week ago. Saturday night, June 9th, we hasten with the explanation. The general enthusiasm marked the meeting for the Dart Baseball cham- pionship between Dundas = Lodge Champions of District 24 and Port Perry Lodge champions of District 41. LEN . To the unitiated a game involving darts may produce little in exitement but to the participants the game can produce a great measure of rivalry and interest. The origin, of this game is obscure to this scribe but it can be recommen- ded as recreation for many groups. A combination of skill and the ele- ment of "Chance" create an ideal game for fun, rivalry and relaxation? However back to the games in ques.' tion. We are. happy to relate that Port Perry came through with flying colors to triumph in two straight games. They were we believe prob- ably the best two games of the year, very close and in doubt until the last out. The scores of 80-26 and 31-27 "4" shows the close as well as high scores " 7 - : /of the two teams indicating that all players. were on their mettle. We were happy to entertain the Dundas team. Such contacts, fasten. ing a close harmony between lodges. To those members not present we in- vite you to see the two trophy shields on display in the lodge rooms. A co-operative assist from the weather man aided greatly in mak- ing our annual Church Service a suc- cess, The turn-out was pleasing and fn conjunction with the Rebekah's we wish to thank Rev. B, D. Arm- strong of the Presbyterian Church, the High School Cadet Band and others participating in this annual event, June 28th will be our last meeting before we recess for the summer, The committee in charge are planning re- freshments 'befitting, the occasion. , The invitation is to turn oyt and khare them. ~ Patio Extends Summer Outdoor Living For a summer with more fun in the sun, one of the biggest returns for a small investment is the construc- tion of a patio. It provides more living space for playing, eating and entertaining. It cuts down on maintenance--there's no lawn to mow, so there's more time to relax with the family. Concrete products manufacturers have made patio-building easy with the production of concrete patio slabs in several colors. They are easy to handle, and inexpensive. All you have to do is prepare a sand or gravel bed, select a pattern, and place the slabs in position. Patio slab dimensions -are usually about 16 x 8 x 2% inches, just right for easy handling, and almost any of the dozens of patterns that can be used in building concrete block walls will serve equally well for patios. Patio slabs aren't joined with mor- tar, for a good reason." The earth a- round a new home settles, and provi- sion must be made so that the slabs can be levelled from time to time. justed to level the patio if any ofthe slabs get out of line due to earth settlement. Maintenance is simple-- a good washing down with a hose from time to time keeps the slabs clean and attractive. ] Some advance planning will increase your enjoyment of your outdoor liv- ing area. Location is- important, to ensure the best view, and as much privacy as you want, Protection from sun, wind and rain is an important consideration espe- cially if you plan to eat or entertain outdoors. ' Experts advise putting your patio plans down on paper first--outline house 'and property to scale on squared paper, then sketch the patio areas on a thin piece of paper placed over the outline. This helps you to visualze the area, and allows you to try several plans, choosing the one most suitable. A patio can be a work centre, hobby area, barbecue area, dining space; or play area for the children, among other uses. 'Plan for the most effective use. Attention should be given in the planning to the surroundings for' the patio. If you choose colored concrete | patio slabs, and work out your own pattern, how will they fit in with the trees, shrubs, flowers and plants that will border your patio? Will you want to plant more, build a wall for pri- vacy, extend your patio with a gar- den walk, terrace, flower bed border, or the many other attractive outdoor units you can build with. concrete ter. race. slabs? Your concrete products mahufac- turer will be glad to help you choose a pattern, and will advise you on costs. Consult Ontario Block and Tile, Port Perry while your planning is in the early stages. His advice can save you time and money. County Council Favors Compulsory Insurance Ontario County Council has gone on record as favoring compulsory automobile insurance.

Mr. Fred Brown showed us a sample of his Fall Wheat, and we measured a stalk 63 inches, better than a yard and a half tall. And that is tall. } Mr. Brown says that he planted the wheat in corn stubble last fall on the garden of Mrs, Zulu Jackson's home and he believeg that it is easily the tallest in Ontario County.
