The Clinton News Record, 1941-01-16, Page 3White Paint Most Popular During 1940 ce Outside Walls of New Dwellings — New Roofs Mostly: Medium tp Dark, Survey Shows White paint, which suffered a slight loss of popularity with house painters in. 1939,, came back 'strong last year, according to a report submittedto the U.S, National Paint, Varnish and :Lac- quer Association at its recent convention in Washington, D.C. A nation-wide Survey of new homes and outstanding' display rooms conducted by the Nation- al' Council for Paint Styling show- ed a 67.9 ,per sent. increase in the use of white paint on the out-: side walls of new dwellings this ' OTHER FACTS The : survey also revealed: That most new homes have roofs that are medium to dark in color, and trim that is lighter than the body of the house. That window sash and doors, as a rule, are painted the same col- or as the trim. That shutters are painted an entirely different color from the rest of the house and in most cases serve as bright points of in- terest. Going inside the houses, the survey indicated that paint is: preferred to wallpaper in most roosts. While light tints are still most popular, stronger and deep- er wall colors are gaining in fa - vol;. The tendency to paint ceiling and trim in colors lighter than the walls continues except in kit- ahem itahens and bathrooms where ceil- ings and walls usually are paint- ed in the same color. Of the new dwellings covered by the survey, 80 per cent were of the Colonial or cottage types.

"He will eat any old scraps," they say proudly. These are notdog levers at all, They r ey are lazy people who keep a dog for purely selfish reasons, such as protection, or companionship for themselves. •Small wonder is 1t that such doge so frequentlystiecnmi) i'o intestinal troubles. Because the. master or mistress happen to have poultry or game for dinner, the bones will be given to the dog as a special treat. Actually this is not kindness at all. These bird bones, or, in tact, any bones, are extremely dangerous. They break up into needle-sharp pieces, and perforation of the intestine may be the result. ' People who keep cats are often inst as careless, or ignorant. They give cats the fish bones from their plates, trusting to luck that one will :not get stuck in the animal's throat. If thts does happen it is the cat and not the owner who suf- fers the pain. The good rule for feeding Is din - ter. at wid-day and a snack for supper, or a shack for breakfast and a late dinner. And as soon as the cat or dog has eaten all he wants take the plate away, whether he has cleaned it or not, and keep his leavinge for next. time, You ' wouldn't consider stale scraps, an appetising meal•yourself, nor are they good for your pet. Variety is important, both for eats and dogs. Meat, fish, pudding Scrapings, greens, a portion of bis, t uit an a . C d little gravy make a pew feet dog diens}', and your eat, toe, a wilt eat most of these things.` SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON LESSON ill THE SLIGHTED INVITATION.— Luke 14 : 15.35. PRNTED TEXT, nuke 14 : 15.24. GOLDEN TEXT.—Come; for all things are now ready. Luke 14: 17. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time. -January, A.D. 30, Place. --Somewhere in Peraea, the province -of Palestine, opposite Judaea, on the Eastern side of the Jordan River. In this lesson' we have revealed to us the remarkable ability of the Lord Jesus to teach the profound- est spiritual truths In the simplest form, in stories, in parables and in sentences which are so vivid and picturesque that they stay 'in our minds all the years of our lite.'We remember fair more of what Jesus said than of what Paul said, This is one of.the ways In 'which Jesus manifests himself as a teacher come from God. No man eves' spoke as he spoke. Our Lord is here dining as a guest in the home of a Pharisee; he has just finished. his remarkable discourse on the importance of one taking a humble place when,invit- ed to dinner, when, because of a superficially pious exclamation' of one sitting nearby at the feast, He was led to give His famous par- able of the Great Supper. Our Lord here is going to show how feasts held 10 our homes are pictures, we might say, of a greater and more important feast to which all men are invited by the grace of. God, a spiritual feast, if partaken of, will bestow benefits for }Ill eternity, The Great Supper Luke 14: 15. "And when one of them that sat at meat -I :th him heard these things, he said unto him, Blessed is he that shall eat bread in the kingdom of God," This was an edifying remark made by one of the Pharisee guests in an effort to turn the converastion from what was personal and prof- itable to a vague generality which touched uobody. 16. "But be said unto him, A certain man made a great supper; and he bade many. 17. And he sent forth his servant at supper time to say to them that they were bidden, Come; for all things are now ready. "Tele custom in our Lord's day in inviting friends to a diluter was first to issue a general invitation to them, without specifying the exact time Mr the banquet, and then, when t'be, banquet was all ready, to send out a servant who would announce of all the previously invited guests that everything was ready for their coming. It is inferred here that the preparation by Christ of the spiritual feast was made in a sim- ilar manner, and a similar levita- tion issued to it. They Make Excuses 18. "And they ail with one con- sent began to ntaice excuse." These people ought to have excused them selves, if they wished, when the v a ' " first Jn it tltfh came Th beg- ging n- Their e in off now wasbreaking g g their promise; and the excuses were transparently worthless. 18. "The first said unto him, I have bought a field, and I must needs go out and see it; I pray thee have me excus- ed. 10 And another id have t 9a , 7 b bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to prove thein; I pray then have me excused. 20. And another said, I have married a wife, and there- fore I cannot come." The point of this story is that these men thought more of property, the pressure of business and the pleau.rels of home, than they did of the privilege of being the guests of one Who had • invited 'them. 09 -tow many men in their prime do these men stand as the representatives; men so engrossed in the business or pur- suits of the world that they posi- tively do not know that God had any claims upon their time,—so busy with their affairs that It nev- er once occurs to them that there are other objects for the sake of which these things could be tor a time laid aside. The Second invitation 21. "And the servant came, and told his Lord these things. Then the master of the b,ouse being angry said to his servant, Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor and maimed and blind and lame." Those referred to in this verse,,people who received the see, and Invitation, are certainly those Jews who might be called the pub- licans and sinner, the unrighteous who did not observe the law. The blind had no field to view, the lame could not go along behind Ids oxen, the maimed had no wife who could have hindered him from coal- ing; only the feeling of poverty could, have held them back. 22. ."And the servant said, Lord, what thou didat command le done, and yet there is room." In Highways and Hedges 28. "And the lord said unto the servant, Go out. into the highways and hedges, and can train them to come in, that my house may be filled." Here at course the invite - Lica is extended to those outside the city which would seem to point. to the Gentiles, to those who never had the Law. The giver of the feast expects that these houseless dwellers in the open will hold them- selves so it -worthy of the invite - Hon as hardly to be persuaded that it was intended tor thein. 24, "Por I say unto you, that none of these men that were biddeu•shall taste of my supper." Thus alar Christ uses love as a compelling pdwer to persuade men to accept he invitation offered in the os - G pal. Now, in one s2iort concluding. entence, I -Te tries to appeal with a warning to thehearts of these • Dean of Canadian Letters Celebrates 81st Birthday Sir Charles G. D.

Canadian ns Like Home Workshops Extra Space in House May Be Utilized to Advantage by Hobbyists Thousands of Canadians choose carpentry or woodworking as their hobby. The average house includes ample space, whether in the base- ment, cellar or attic where a hone workroom may be constructed.' In such a place the amateur car- penter may find much diversion and utilize his time to pleasant purposes. FOR A SMALL OUTLAY Stout work bench with vise, lathe and racks for tools is gen- erally desirable. Under the bench shelves and cabinets ntay be built to contain equipment and mater- ials of the worker. For a small outlay the work- room may be completely panelled with an inexpensive material and then painted a light color to re- flect the natural light.
