It provides for convenient living de- spite its modest size. The three- bedroom plan features a good in- terior layout which is designed around a central bathroom core. This allows the sleeping area to be completely closed off from the living section and provides two- way circulation, - In addition, by raising the ground floor six steps from the grade lev- el, the architects have assured a large, well -lighted basement for a future recreation •room. The main access to the house 'is from a bal- cony while the secondary entrance opens into the basement from a stairwell at the rear. The total floor -area- is 889 --square. • feet and the exterior dimensions..,. are 30 feet, eight inches by 29 feet.

Back filling with frozen earth will also cause surface collapse. ADVENTURE IN BUILDING Remove Ali Rubbish Before Bdckfihlin.ci This is the eleventh in a 'gen- ies of articles by Central Mort- gage and Housing Corporation, Federal housing agency, on building a •house. When the fdundation is finished a deep pit is left around the out- side of the foundation wall. Fill- ing this with earth is known as backfilling. It does not have to be done immediately after comple- tion of the foundation; in fact if the house has a block foundation • it is not wise to start backfilling until some lateral support has been provided for the foundation walls, since the weight of the backfill • may cause the foundation to cave in, Rubbish should be removed from the pit before backfilling begins as it may cause cavities, with conse- quent surface depressions when the• backfill packs down. This may not happen until much later when the landscaping has been completed, and the home owner may be put to considerable expense to repair the damage. Using frozen earth as backfill may also lead to surfaee collapse. Frozen soil buried four feet under- ground takes a considerable time to thaw out. Un(jer these condi- tions the surface around the foun- dation has been known to drop a foot or more, months after occu- pancy of the new home. Backfill should be free of boul- ders 'as these may damage the damp -proofing, which protects the Name Winners At Orange Euchre The LOBO held a euchre last week. Winner's were: ladies' high, Mrs. B. Hildebrand; lone hand'§, Mrs. Wilf Glazier; consolation- Mrs. McDougall; men, high, Will Glazier; lone hands, John Tre neer; consolation, Sam Pethick. Mr. Pethick won the draw for a iloilie, foundation. Earth should be pack - 'ed down as the excavation is be- ing filled. Normally, the weight of the bulldozer will do an adequate job, except near the edge of the building where the treads 'Of the bulldozer cannot reach. Although the surface -is not ready for final grading and landscaping at this early stage, tire grounds around the house. should be level- led off as neatly as possible while the machinery is still on the site. This makes it easier to clean up the lot when construction is over. By C. A. DEAN, M.D. Applications of heat are advised to increase circulation in parts of the body. Such treatment is re- commended for infections (boils, sore throats, .etc.), inflammations (bursitis and arthritis) and swel- lings (•sprains, strains, etc.). , There are ,certain conditions of the body, however;. for which heat would be harmful. It is important to know when not to use heat. Perhaps the most important con- traindication of heat" is with pat- ients who have poor circulation, especially if it involves the feet. Regardless -of whether the patient's feet may be cold, he should not apply any type of concentrated heat, such as hot water bottles, heating pads or heating lamps. Warming- a leg to a temperature much higher than the rest of the body will cause demand for 'more blood in the area. • With the inadequate circulation, this extra blood is not forthcom- ing and a burn can easily result. Even if it doesn't, damage to the tissues can develop which contri- butes to other complication, such as ulcerformation,• dermatitis, poor healing std infections.

They have. 22 bead in the district, and from slime of the names, they would be classed as new men in the game. .' One thing to make anyone take notice when mentioning Seaforth, is to add "Thunder Bay.". Wilson Oke is the "'owner of this •brown gelding by Ra Chilcoot-Mary R Lee. The writer feels free to men- tion Wilson as they are'pretty good friends. Wilson had Ada McLellan back about 1953. She never had a fast record, but had breeding by Worthy Spencer by Spencer, which should have made her respected. She would get lucky and win the odd heat and Wilson was •having the time of his life, trucking her all over to one, -day meets. He was a very successful insur- ance man in Detroit before coming to 'Seaforth, and still acts in the same capacity. He never made any beefs and was always ready for a smile when the pipe„left his lips, even when the mare was in. over her head. He then purchased the pacer, Thunder Bay, and he appeared to be too much for him in- the break- ing departments. His friends and wife, felt he would get hurt with this new one, as he had a mind of his own and was a „rugged indivi- dual, But Wilson, ,,being of the de- termined type, won .out and the pacer is considered one of the fast- est in Western Ontario. • He came out as a green four- year-old pacer in 1957, and started at one -day meets. In 40 tries he had a standing of 15-9-7 and $1,275, with a race record of 2:11 4-5 hmt. In 1958 he started 56 times and had a standing of 22-8-10 and low- ered his record to 2:09. _Thewrit- er believes he was -in. the first five among leading dash .winners of North America that year, and. earned $1,600. During 1958 he had a numberof price offers around the $6,000 and $7,000 mark from American interests. He ,would say to the writer, "I don't want to sell him. I realize I am not giving him, a good chance for a record, but I. have chased all the other hoses and drivers with my other stock for years, and now I have a fair one, and I want to. be` chased for a while.” Last year as a six -ye -old he paced in 2:05 2/5 and earned at one -day meets`$1;654. This horse is a good contender wherever he par- ticipates and we couldn't see a nicer fellow own him. Wilson also owns a promising three-year-old called Joan Spencer, by Sam Hy 2:05, dam Delphene Spencer. -- ' Cecil and Ben Loney, owner of the popular Cardinal Prince stal- lion) Smash, Hit,' have some on the training list. They are Luella Chips; 4, by Mr- Chips -Luella Guy; Rita's Brogue, 4, by Royal Brogue, dam.' Rita Aires, who has started ..,to 'show plenty of manners and does everything right, giving Cecil high hopes; and a Mr. Chips eight-year- old, called Turves Chips. All hors- es have been going every day and look in show horse condition. Harold Shera has Village Maid, a seven-year-old sidewheeler, look- ing in fine shape. She was pacing right along when the writer saw her. Harold is hoping she can ac- quire the speed of Miss Legal Grat- tan, 2:04 and a tick, as Village Maid is also by Legal Hanover - Minnie Grattan M. Ron Bannerman has three on the mdve every day and they appear like they will do• He is mighty high on his two-year-old, called The Rocket B. This one is by Who— Honor's Bonnie V by His Honor 1:59314. The writer witnessed this mare many times in her prime when Jack Bannerman raced her, and he gave her a record of 2:08 hmt. She should leave a terrific colt by this breeding. Sputnik Lee, a four-year-old by the popular dou- ble -.gaited stallion Glen Hanover - goodwill Linda,. is also' doing ev, erything right. The last gne •is by Canadian Catinsel by Chief Counsel and out of a Lee Harvester darn. Norm. Williamson needs no intro- duction tb onr sport with his good campaigner Lucky Star: Ile is a Seven-year-old pacer by Ra Chil- coot-Betty Grattan M. He is train- ing sound and will be heard of again this summer. He also has a good looking three-year-old called Sandra Hy, by Sam Hy -Babe Cbil- coot. Watch this one. We don't haveto mention that Chilcoot dams' are good producers. Jacob Broome has Ben Lee, a six-year-old, by Bob Lee-Bendonna by Benedict 3, 2:041/2. This well made stallion should surely do with this breeding. The only other brood mare that comes to the writer's mind at this time by Benedict is Miss Jean Axworthy, the dam of Billy Easter 2:04 4/5. Jake•is bet- ter known for his fast mare, Miss J. B. Hal, by Alpha Hal -Miss Chips W. She has a record of 2:12 hint. and is a stalwart mare when she gets to the front in any mile. Gordon Pullman has a promis- ing mare in Estell Chips. She is fouryears old and is by Mr. Chips - Elizabeth R. 0+ Harvey Mclllwain has two on the move; who appear to have the gait under control. They are Legal Flash, a five-year-old by Legal Hanover -Golden Flash, and Rev Lookout, a four-year-old by Stein- way Grattan. Harvey leans a little to the latter as he has plenty of size and shows that he is of the rugged nature. -These'- Steinways are tough. N. MacLean has a Count Han- over four-year-old called Count Van Egmond, out of Minnie Bari., This one is certainly satisfying -the owner the way he is performing. Graham Kerr has a :Victory Bars five-year-old out' of Delphene Spencer, who is showing some rap- id bursts of speed when given its head. It is called Robin Spencer. ' Archie Parker has a good look- ing chestnut Victory Bars, called Flash Brook Bars, out of Pearl Brook. He is just in the process of breaking this one, and he should enjoy a number of pleasant hours backache! —tired out!' —rest disturbed! ARE ALL WIVES FED UIP �.
