GODERICH (Staff) — Local curling addicts may •be soon shouting "IOW as they cast a rock if Oharies Kerte] and the Maitland Golf Club executive have their way. With plans ' underway to build a $30,000 clubhouse at the golf course there is much talk of adding a curling rink in the future, said preeident Neftel, ROOM FOR xIIIPROVEIIICENT IN DRIVER INSTRUCTION In 1961 about 39 percent of eligible students in 1JS high schools took a thorough course in driver education, reports the Ontario Safety League. In spite of developing interest her in this life-preserving course, the number of Canadian 16-year- olds who receive driver instruc- tion in school is statistically in- significant. 0 - Safe Motoring By LUDWIG IIEIMRATH Canadian Race Car Driving Champion Whenever there is trouble ahead during a race, the mar- :eishals with dif- ferent colored flags advise on- corning drivers of the problem. Unfortunately, no such warn- ings can be set out t o advise motorists of icy patches crop- ping up here and there on an otherwise bare, icy-free road- way. I always try 'to drive 'in such a way as to be able to cope with any situation if it should suddenly arise. On ice, a prudent foot on the gas and steady hands on the wheel usually get you through safely. Don't 'try any sudden .accelera- tion or make any effort to sud- denly change direction. On Saturday members of the building committee ,i1Q4clod by Cyril Murray ,and Peter Mae, Bleats looked over the building at Listofwel .golf cettle The next meeting of the club executive elated for Feb, 5, will discuss ways and means throgget the sale of shares a mortgage to finance 'the new clubhouse. "If we're lucky," Said Mr, Naftel, "we will try in a few years to 'add the curling rink." bui he proposed clebbeese lding would be approximate- ly 85 x 65 feet with a glassed in L-shaped lounge, kitchen and &peeing room facilities. The ,small part of the "L"' could be the entrance way to any proposed curling rink. The front ,of the clubhouse may have a balcony overlooking the golf course. "No actual plans have been okayed as yet," said president Naftel, "but we .have a set of blueprints from another club consider," The new executive of the Maitland Golf Club is: Charles K. Naftel, president; C. F. Everett, vice-president; Mrs. Carl Schneiker, setretary-treae- urer; directors, F. J, Rouse, R. M. Menzies, P, S. MacEwan, Cyril Murray, E. R. Rowlands and W. M. Duncan. Robbery Appears To Baffle Police Clinton police appear baffled by the breakin at Groves Radio and Electric. The electrical re- pair shop was broken into some time last Wednesday night or Thursday morning. Police have not advised the proprietor A. W. Groves of any arrests as yet, he said Monday. "The back door was forced and 'the window screen taken out, along with $25 in bills out of the cash drawer, "There were footprints in the snow out back about the size a young lad's," he continued. "It looks dike some one 'had been in here and cased 'the place because they threaded their way through repaired TVs standing near the back door, and made right to the each regieter. They didn't even touch any of the radios, flashlights and other small items near it. They were just after the •menee-" "Police chief Thompson is looking after the investigation," Mr. Groves said. 0 Mrs. F.

News-Record 56 ALBERT STREET HU 23443 NEWS OF BRUCEFIELD PPrtrfmnOtInt;, MRS, M, BERRY Phones; Clanton .PqatPrth -P,41 4 1? Huronview last year hid what is considered by the pro- vince a good ratio of staff to patients, Harvey Johnston, home superintendent, told Hu- ron County Council this month. The ratio would tend to show that the home is slightly under- staffed this year, he added. Last year there was one staff member for every 2.3 patients. There are 56 persons work- ing full time at the home and four part-thne at present. The nursing staff, he said, needs more help. At the end of 1961 the home had 150 residents, compared with 109 at the end of 1960. Ten residents have been admit- ted since the beginning of this year. Mr. Johnston said that costs are going up, mainly because of the increase in staff members and patients since the new ad- dition was opened last fall. The town of Goderich, with 19 patients has more than any other municipality. Clinton is next with 18; Stanley and How- ick townships have 11 each. Of the 54 admissions in 1961, 31 were over the age of 80, and six over 90 years. Twenty-nine of these paid full maintenance and only one person did -not have some sort of pension plan. Within Budget J. Roy Adair, reeve of Wing- ham, in presenting the board of management's report on the home, said that the building program is within the budget. In 1959 the county advanced the building committee pro- gram $20 000, and with invest- ments made of money on hand', has realized $16,000. vgteg 040—, With lee Below Are You Planning on Remodeling Your Home or Recreation Room?

Check Slides, • Projector, For Enjoyable Show Junior gliding across the ice in his tizst pair of skates, the dog frolicking in the enoW, Johnny trying out his tobog- gan—yoe've caught these and hest of other pictures in re- cent Weeks. And now it's time to show your color slides to friends and family. But check before you pro- ject, With a bit of planning and care, your audience enjoy- merit of your slides will be greatly increased. First, inspect every slide. Pull put the "misses", the over or under-exposed shots, and the pictures that didn't "come off" in terms of color and con- tent. Arrange the slides in a logi- cal, interesting order. Filing them in series to tell a "story" will provide a far more enjoy- able show than a grab-bag of unrelated pictures, Besides giving your audience a sense of continuity, it will help you with the running commentary. Once you've decided on the order and placed the slides in a box, draw a diagonal line across the tops. That way, you can tell at a glance if the slid- es are in sequence far showing. To avoid having your slides appear on •the screen upside down, or reversed, glue a lit- tle tab to the upper right-hand corner. Or, if you prefer, mark the corner with a circle con- taining an "X". The mark can be seen clearly, even in dim light, and eliminates mistakes during projection. Inspect your slides for dirt and marks. Remember that a tiny speck of dust can loom as large as an elephant fly when projected on the average home screen. For dirt and lint, use a clean, dry, camel's hair brash, For fingerprints, breathe lightly on the side and wipe gently with a soft cloth or wad of absorbent cotton. Once the slides are spic and span, we would recommend you keep them in file boxes available from your photo- graphic dealer. You might also like to mount your better slid- es between two pieces of glass, sealed tightly with tape. Both methods help you protect your slides from dust or damage. When your friends arrive for the show, check the pro- jector before setting it up. Is the lens clean and tree from dust? Is the bulb bright enough? Remember that a smooth beginning puts your friends in the right mood, right from the start. Just one final tip: it's usual- ly best to limit shows to 30 or 40 minutes. By keeping your show to a reasonable length, you can hold audience interest at a peak and have them anxious to see your next presentation. J. I. .Co.voish is. .4 Patient in Victoria Hospital, London.
