If you're looking for a place to start on
home improvements, consider
these facts about electric wiring.
To most people, home improvements
' mean a panelled recreation room or a
shiny new set of kitchen cupboards. But
there's a way to improve the improve-
ments: modernize your home wiring first.
Up-to-date wiring lets you make the
most of the new room you're building, or
the old one you're re -styling. It lets you
place your lighting wherever you like,
have as many electrical outlets as you
choose, and use as many appliances as
you need without popping fuses.
In fact, you'll notice pleasant changes
all through your home. Modern wiring
can improve the efficiency of your light-
ing and the performance of your appli-
ances. It puts such comforts as electric
heating and air conditioning well within
your reach. It can also make a big differ-
ence to the safety and re -sale value of
your home. Before you reach for your
toolbox, reach for your telephone. Call
a qualified electrical contractor, or your
Hydro.
Up -to' -date wiring .`b
costs less than you may `IA
think. Yet it could be your %to)
most important home
improvement of all.
Red Kelly, the ex -Toronto
Maple Leaf hockey star, ap-
peared as a guest on "Front
Page Challenge" last week. Al-
though he spent most of his
hockey years with the Detroit
Red Wings and is now the coach
of the new Los Angeles hockey
team, he stated that he would
probably never give up his Ca-
nadian citizenship.
Red was a member of parlia-
ment for a term and retired
from politics before retiring
from active playing with the
Leafs. Although he never
missed a game, he came close
a few times because of his po-
litical activities,
Seeing this reminded us that
the two hockey nights will soon
be with us. This year the Toron-
to Maple Leafs will miss three
Saturday night games at hone,

nesday night games this year,
