offs last Monday evening when
the New Hamburg Bantams took
the third and deciding game in
New Hamburg by a 13-0 score. ,
Clinton came up against a very
tough pitcher in Bud Delrody as
he retired the first twelve men in
order. The locals threatened to
score in only two innings. In the
fifth Don Lockwood was safe when
he struck out and the catcher
dropped the ball for an error and
he reached second on Bruce Bet-
ties single. However, the next two
men were retired without the run-
ners advancing. In the seventh,
after two were out, Don Freeman
singled and got as far as second
when Betties walked, but Allan
Durnin grounded out to first for
the final out.
Bob Livermore did the hurling
for the locals while Don Freeman
was behind the plate. New Ham-
burg pounded out 10 hits includ-
ing a home run, a triple and two

Completes Schedule,
To Begin Playoff Series
Four teams from the Hydro,
Kinsmen, Legion and Canada Pac-
kers have been carrying out an
enthusiastic battle this summer
on the softball diamond, with more
or less friendly attitudes toward
the situation.
On Tuesday night when the
Kinsmen met the Legion, and a
game got under way without um-

curred in a couple of "close" calls.

Kent Junior Farmers
Visit Station Clinton
RCAF Station Clinton was host
on August 5, to a group of Junior
Farmers from Kent County. The
visit was arranged through Train-
ing Command Headquarters by
the assistant agricultural repres-
entative for Kent, W. D. Keys.
"RCAF "Station.- Clinton is 'the
home of the Radar and Communi-
cations School -Where all RCAF
radar and communications person-
nel receive their training. Also
located here is the School of Food
Services where all Food Services
Officers, dietitians, cooks and
food services attendants are train-
ed.
The group was first given a
general briefing and then divided
into two parties, one of ladies,
the other of men. The ladies
party first visited the Radar and
Communications School to see
some of the training given to
airwomen as fighter control op-
erators. They then went to the
School of Food Services to see
the facilities used for. training stu-
dents. in the handling, preparation
sand serving of :food. Meanwhile,
the men's party was visiting por-
tions of the Radar and Communi-
cations School where communica-
tions and radar technicians are
trained. They had an opportunity
to visit some of the facilitieS em-
ployed in teaching the theory of
electronics as well as practical
laboratories used to teach specif-
ic equipments. The two parties
then re-assembled for a general
question period before leaving the
station.
Prepare Area Properly Before Painting
Prime New Materials With a Sealer
special water soluble cement
paints may be applied over a wet
or damp surface.
Before redecorating painted sur-
faces, all loose paint should be
scraped off and the surface
smoothed with sandpaper or steel
wool. In some cases it might be
advisable to loosen the old paint
with paint remover, scrape the
surface clean then proceed as with
an unpainted surface.
Better results can be obtained if
the primer coat is allowed to dry
thoroughly before applyihg • the
succeeding coats.
It is important in every ease
that the paint manufacturer's in-
structions be followed rigidly if
good results are to be obtained.
For interior painting good ven-
tilation is needed to dissipate the
fumes and to assist in drying.
Good lighting is also essential for
interior work and daytime paint-
ing is recommended as sunlight
will permit a better inspection
than artificial light.

Good, painting means not only
an attractive finish but a paint
job that will last. This requires
some knowledge as well as a cer-
tain amount of skill.
Before painting new wood sur-
faces all knots should be covered
with shellac or other sealer. Oth-
erwise the resins contained in the
wood will blemish the finished
paint job. New lumber with a
rough or unplaned surface should
be sanded before the paint is ap-
plied.
Unpainted wood, plaster and
plaster-board surfaces should al-
ways be primed with a sealer be-
fore it is given the finish coats.
Prepared primer paints can be ob-
tained at any paint or hardware
store.
If the surface to be painted is
mildewed, it should be cleaned
with a solution of sodium carbon-
ate or other recommended pre-
paration. The surface should
then be thoroughly rinsed and left
to dry before the paint is applied.
Wood work must be dry before
painting with an oil base paint.
Trouble is bound to develop if
paint is applied over wood that is
not properly seasoned. Moisture
accumulating under painted sur-
faces will cause the paint to blis-
ter and peel,
When painting masonry the
surface Should bo dry if oil paint
is to be used but rubber paint and

Anniversary services in St.
Andrew's United Church were
held Sunday, August 9, with the
Rev. George Sctitchmer, First
Presbyterian Church, Galveston,
Texas, preacher for the occasion.
His morning sermon was based on
the text, "We' mow %hat we have
passed from death unto life, be-
cause we love the -brethren," the
subject being "Love".
• The choir, directed by organist
Floyd McCash, sang very beauti-
fully, "For the Beauty of the
Earth" with the junior choir sing-
ing the descant, •and also the an-
them "Let Every Tongue 'Adore
Thee".
At the evening service the sub-
ject was the Prodigal Son. The
wandering boy Was pictured as
the prototype of the present day
"beatniks", both being obsessed
by the idea of freedom from all
restraint, physical and moral. The
point was made that rue freedom
is not found in the selfish doing
of one's own will.
The choir's evening anthem was
"0 be Joyful" and a quartette,
"Now I Belong to Jesus" was
sung by Mr. and Mrs. Whiteside,
Miss Clark, and T. Dunn. Baskets
of gladioli added much to the
beauty of the occasion.

The Woman's Missionary Soc-
iety of St. Andrew's United
Church entertained members of

were played under direction of
Mrs. Raymond Scotchmer, Bounti-

A short program was presented
by the children. Michael Greer
read Scripture. Piano solos were
played by Joyce Rathwell and
Peggy Lou McAsh. A trio was
sung by three girls, Linda Scot-
chmer, Ellen Lindsay and Bar-
bara Turner. An interesting story
was told the children around the
supper table by Miss A. M. Stirl-
