°Yes, it’s a good idea. We’ve found at Bell that it saves ub

Don’t Leave That
Rake Around!
Now that spring is here and
cultivation becomes an active indus
try, it is well to keep in mind that
gardening tools can be dangerous as
well as helpful, say safety experts of
the Ontario Department of Lands and
Forests. They advise: “Hoes, rakes
and other such implements should not
be left lying with their cutting edges
upwards or placed where they are a
menace to the unsuspecting.
“Pleasure derived from a beautiful
garden or a plantation of trees is
worth the labour expended, but not
at a cost of a sprained ankle or a
bruised face. Take thought When leav
ing a tool down; no one enjoys a rake
handle in the face or the blade of a
hoe in the sole of his foot.
» “Carefulness is not a Waste of
time. A painful injury caused through
carelessness may prove costly in time
and money, Practise safety habits ahd
Work Safely!”

OF MOUSE-TRAPS AND HOCKEY STICKS!
Build a better mouse-trap and the world will beat a path to your door!
The same can be said for hockey sticks, especially a new type being readied
for production by Lasmor-Patrick Manufacturing Company of Vancouver.
And, the man who has lent the name ^Patrick” to the new company, has
been more than handy in the use of hockey sticks for many years.
Frank A, Patrick, brother of Lester, and a member of the famous
Coast hockey dynasty.
Frank has only recently revealed what he thinks is the best and
economical hockey stick on the market today. You won’t be able to use the
phrase, “laying on the old hickory”, if these sticks come into vogue. After
three ye'ars of experimentation with a combination of woods, Patrick now
has a stick that is partly laminated with thin sheets of plastic, In such a
way as to do away with scuffing the heel and bottom of the blade, and also
to prevent the blade from splitting. The handle is also reinforced to a point
about half-way up, so the vulnerable parts of the stick are greatly strength
ened.
But, the most interesting part of
the Patrick stick is the fact .that he
uses B.C. fir and birch, which have
a definite appeal because of their
availability and low cost. Hockey
sticks are made mostly of ash at the
present time, but this wood is becom
ing scarcer and more costly each year.
The .fir and hjrch sticks, plastic-re
inforced, will make a bid for a good
share of the market this fall.
In a letter to a friend in the Dun
dalk area, Patrick gives an interesting
figure on the number of sticks pro
duced in Canada each year. The fig
ure is 700,000, and his company plans
an output of 40,000 in the first year.
The plastic laminated stick has been
tried out on the ice, and was found
to be lighter and more durable than
any comparable model on the market
today. Hickory wood has been found
to be too heavy for modern-day hock
ey, so the cry will go up, ‘‘lay on the
plastic”, an indication of the chang
ing times in sport.
