Lochalsh and Teeswater played base-
ball. In the draw, Localsh won the 'bye'
and Teeswater and Lucknow played the
first game. It was well contested
throughout but Lucknow gradually pulled
ahead and finished with a score of 14
against Teeswater 2. Lochalsh has a
strong team and proved a different pro.
position. They shut Lucknow out alto-
gether and ran up a score of 12. The

The Paint That
Costs The Least
is the Paint that covers the greatest surface -that takes the
shortest time to apply -that wears the longest. Martin-Senour
"1007 Pure" Paint does all three. here's the proof. •"2007
Pure" Paint covers 900 square feet of surface per gallon..
Hand -mixed -lead -and -oil, and cheap prepared paints, cover
only about 500 square feet.
The greatest cost of painting is for labor. It takes less time
to apply Martin-Senour "100% Pure" Paint because its fine, even
texture spreads much easier.
RTIN SENOUR
(Made in Canada)
is guaranteed to be exactly as represented. The purity of the.
White Lead and Zinc Oxide -411c high quality of the Linseed Oil
—the minute fineness of the grinding by powerful machinery-'
insure a paint that gives years of protection and beauty tO
your home.
Why use cheap paint ---stat t is expensive to put on --when
Martin-Senour "100% Pure" Paint wears nearly twice as long P.
