IT'S EVERYBODY'S BUSINESS
Literally hundreds of enthusiastic
skiers come from the States every
year. Expert or novice, they really
can have fun on Ontario’s ski frails.
And we certainly want to make
sure they do!
WHAT CAN S DO?
Well, everybody has his own way
of saying welcome. Ontario hotel
men are famous for their hospi
tality: here is a set of tips suggested
by one of them.
Find out all about what your
neighbourhood offers, and be
come a booster.
Write your friends in the
States about Ontario ... show
them when they come you’re
really proud of it.
Try to make any visitor glad
he came.
Take time to give requested in
formation fully and graciously.
In business, remember Can
ada’s reputation for courtesy
and fairness depends on you.
To sum it up, follow the
’’Golden Rule.”
It works both ways!
They treat us royally
when we visit them 4.
we can’t do less than
return the compliment.
Remember that it costs
money to take a holi
day *. . so let’s see they
get a good return for
every petmy they spend.

Hello, Homemakers! Home light
ing by electricity makes our work
easier, but we are often careless in
failing to use it to the best advan
tage. Insufficient or improper light
ing can be guarded against. Use a
table lamp placed so that the light
shines on the work in hand from the
left side. If there is not a close
enough outlet, use an extension
cord. Inside frosted bulbs .and white-
lined shades are highly recommend
ed. Sixty to 100 watt bulbs are
suggested for tedious work When
the light source is three or four feet
away. A good light will prevent
unnecessary fatigue and strain from
cleaning cupboards, painting, scrub
bing, ironing or any household
chore.
TAKE A TIP
1. Dark bulbs and dark shades
absorb light.
2. Coloured lights are decorative
but do not give as much light as
white ones,
3. Clean lighting fixtures occa
sionally to obtain maximum amount
of light and life of bulb.
4. Keep a few bulbs in stock for
replacements.
