Paint Works •
11/Iiraclet In Hall
The front hallway is the hand-
shake of the house and should
greet people cheerfully. Unfor-
tunately, it is usually the most
gloomy spot in the home be-
cause it seldom receives a ray
of sunshine.
Suggestions for injecting a
cheery 'hello" into the most dis-
mal entrance hall are offered
by W. D Sinclair, color consult-
ant.
Paint can work miracles, pro-
viding the colors are right. The
color of the hall walls should
be light and sunny but it must
also harnionize with the colors
in the rooms opening into it.
Primrose yellow is a good
ehoice, since yellow is on speak-
ing terms with most other col-
ors, says Mr. Sinclair.
If the hall is a long narrow
tunnel, square it up by painting
the end walls a darker color—
a medium" blue, for instance.
Dark colors tend to pull walls
In, light colors make them take
a step back, visually changing
the shape of a room.
Especially in an old house, the
ceiling often seems, far too high
for the size of a narrow hall.
Mr. Sinclair suggests using the
darker color trick to pull the
ceiling down. Another effective
measure is to dispense with the.
ceiling light and, instead, use a
lamp placed low on a table.
Finally, every room needs a
centre of interest, even an en-
trance hall. A painting on the
wall opposite the door draws at-
tention into the house. A softly-
shaded lamp suggests warmth
and welcome. When the front
-door is opened, even the paper-
boy' should feel "Here is a pleas-
ant house to live in!"
Minnow-Keeper
A little know secret of trans-
porting minnows• fork long dis-
tances is to carry them in an air-
tight container. A milk can with
tight cover is ideal for carrying
large numbers. One or two gal-
lon, wide-mouthed' "glass jars,
are ideal for carrying smaller
numbers. Place fresh water in
the container, put in minnows,
and screw lid on tightly. When
jar is opened, change water and
replace tight cover. Minnows
can be carried safely and gen-
erally will remain lively for 24
hours by using this method.
SCHOOL BAND LY
By IL R. CALVERT.
The, wilcl west, was tamed et
the turn , of the century, The
adventurers and pioneers who
made the Klondike blaze with
golden stories have long since
died away. There is a new breed
of pioneer now. These people
are steadily pushing the known
boundaries of Canada ever wid-
er and in them the spirit of ad-
venture still lives.
Most Canadians hug the south-
ern boundary of their country
and cities such as Montreal,
Toronto and Vancouver, contain
the bulk of the country's pop-
ulation; thousands and thou-
sands of• people talk with pride-
of Canada's rapidly growing
mining industry but not many
-of them have had the opportun-
ity I have of taking a look at
this industry "in the flesh"—or
at least one small segment of it.
In August of this year I left
Winnipeg and flew north and
west to the town of Lynn Lake,
Manitoba, where Sherritt Gor-
don Mines Limited are located,
and spent one of the most pleas-
ant weeks of my life in this
community with people who are
a part of the mining industry.
These people are undoubtedly
Canada's pioneers of today and
they are also, undoubtedly, the
most highly-paid pioneers since
the dawn of history.
When I left Toronto to visit
Lynn Lake on August 5th it was
with no foreknowledge of what
I might find. Perhaps I can be
pardoned for thinking, because
it is a common misimpression—
that a typical mining town is
made up of a group of hard-
drinking, hard-gambling social
misfits eking out a bare exist-
ence in a community of shacks,
and in which there is little or
no recreational or social activ-
ity. It was with some concern
over how I might fit in that. I
boarded C.P.A. at Winnipeg.
The aircraft • stops respectively
at Dauphin, The Pas and Flin
Flon before its 'last leg to Lynn
Lake. It was interesting to note
the change taking place on the
terrain below us—flat, rich, fer-
tile farm lands gradually becom-
ing more lake-dotted and heav-
ily treed—and finally no cul-
tivation at all, just mile after
mile of rivers, lakes and mus-
keg, froth the air seemingly im-
passable.
Some five hours' after leaving
Winnipeg, we circled the town
of Lynn Lake which,' even from
above, looked clean and_ well-
panned; 'a wide main street,
homes painted and modern, the
Sherrit Gordon Mine buildings
compact, efficient looking, on
an elevated area east of the
townsite. Perhaps a sixth sense
told me—perhaps my memory
influenced by subsequent events
is faulty, but I seem to recall
that suddenly I was no longer
"concerned—that I said to myself
"I'll like this town and I'll like
the people"—and I do.
I was rather surprised at the
number of motor vehicles -at the
airport, including four taxicabs.
NN MANITOBA
I learned• Wei= that, despite the
fact that there are only thirty • -
odd; miles of road, there are two
hundred and fifty-four automo-
biles and trucks on the townsite,
two hundred and twenty-fiVe of
which, ate privately-owned,
A short taxi ride of one' mile
on a sand end gravel road cut
through stunted pine and ever-
green brought els to an attrac-
tive two-storey hotel. Popular
Manager Bob McKay welcomed
me aboard in refreshing old-
time greeter's style, and showed
me to a 1 a r g e, bright, clean,
well-furnished room with bath
overlooking, the main street.
After a good, inexpensive din-
ner in the hotel restaurant I
wandered down to the theater.
Mrs. Patterson, whose husband
is the managee, said'— "We run
two shows nightly, seven to nine
p.m., six days a week, summer
and winter. Summer attendance
is not too iood because our
summers in Lynn Lake are 'short
and, people „like to take advan-
tage of the good weather. How-
ever, our theater is well pa-
tronized during the winter and
we try to provide good enter-
tainment." The theater is a„cre-
dit to the town — four hundred
comfortable seats and featuring
a wide-vision screen. It was built
by Calvert Construction Com-
pany and personable Bill Cal-
vert commented, with pardon-
able pride, "This was a hurry-
up job; _the first show was pre-
sented to the public less than
two month's from the day we
started construction."
Lynn Lake is under a Local
District form of Government
with C. R. Neely the Adminis-
' trator and S. G. Gudgeon his
Assistant, Mr. Gudgeon, in Mr.
Neely's. absence, was most co-
operative•.in„supplying informa-
tion pertinent, to, this article. The
Local Government DiStrict of
Lynn Lake covers roughly four
hundred square miles centered
by the townsite. Annual 'budgets
are prepared and submitted ,to
the P r o'v incial Government.
M o n e y is raised, partially by
taxation, but Sherritt Gordon
Mines Limited provide the bulk
of .the money required to run
the community, To quote Mr.
Gudgeon, "Hundreds of thou-
sands of dollars, were ,and are
being spent by herritt Gordon
free of charge to the munici-
pality. Our to w n planning
scheme is such as to require
and assure a high. standard of
homes and .commercial, build-
ings. You haye doubtless seen
that Many new modern- homes
are under construction. Certain -
areas are classified as 'residen-
tial-districts' and others as 'busi-
ness or commercial districts';
note this new tubdivisiOn of 101
lots now being cleared .for future
homes." Even a cursory exa-
mination of the impressive 21-
Page planning sehetne made it

been given to expansion' and
standard of structures, and this
foresight is paying dividends as
is evidenced by the fact that

and with obvious community

On the night before July 30
Wore was a new and strange
atmosphere about the Kon-Tiki.
Perhaps it was the deafening
clamor from all the sea birds
ever us which showed that
something fresh was brewing.
The screaming ,of birds with
many 'Voices W45 SG hectic and
so earthly, after the dead creak-
ing of lifeless ropes which was
all we had heard, above the noise
of the sea in the three months
we had behind us .
At, six o'clock Bengt came down
from the masthead, wake Her-
man, and turned in, When Her-
man clambered up the creaking
swaying mast the day had be-
gun to break, Ten minutes later
he was down the rope-ladder
again and was shaking me by
the leg,
"Come out and have a look at
your island!"
His face was radiant, and I
jumped up, followed by Bengt,
who had not quite gone to• sleep
yet, Hard on each other's heels,
we huddled together as high as
we could climb, at the point
where the masts crossed. There
were many birds around us, and
a faint violet blue veil over the
sky was reflected in the sea as
a last relic of the departing
night, But over the whole horizon
away to the east a ruddy glow
.had begun to spread,' and far
down to the south-east• it grad-
ually formed a bloodred back-
ground for a faint shadow, like
a blue pencil line, drawn for a
sohrt way along the edge of
the sea . .
We heel only to cast one glance
over the sea to perceive at once,
from the direction Of the waves,
that we had lost our chance in
the darkness. Where we now
lay, the wind no longer allowed
us to press the' raft on a course
towards the island. The region

currents which twisted in all di-
rections as they ran up against
land, and many of them varied
in direction- as they met power-
ful tidal currents flowing In and
out over reefs and lagoons.
We laid the steering oar aver,
but we knew quite well that it
was useless. At half-past six
the sun rose out of the sea
and climbed straight up aS it

lay some few miles away and
had the appearance of 'a• quite

crowded close together behind
