Dorothee promises luxur- ious living for tiie larger family. Utilizing a complete bedroom wing, it has complete privacy for the sleeping area as well as ample. closet space. A feature of the interior plan is the master bedroom with its priv- ate bathroom, dressing room and double clothes closet. Other eye- catching provisions in the design are the large, well -lighted living room which can be shut .off from the diking room by a wooden ac- cordion door; the generous kitchen with space for dining and a built- in area for a washer and dryer; the screened flagstone porch which provides a covered walk between the kitchen and garage and the large coat closet with built-in table adjoining the front entrance. The basement is partitioned into four sections allowing for ftirnace and laundry rooms as well as a large games room and storage area. The total floor area is 1,662 square feet and the exterior dimen- sions are 58 feet by 47 feet. Work- ing drawings for the house, Design 804, may be obtained from Central Mortgage and Housing, EASY DOES IT — Window sashes are sometimes fitted with glass before installa- tion, but glazing is often carried out on the site. With wooden sash care should be tak- en not to damage the edges of the frame. ADVENTURE IN BUILDING lei Care Required in Adjusting Window Frames and Sash This is the 22nd in a series of articles by Central Mortg- age and Housing Corporation, Federal housing agency, on building a house. When nailing wooden window and door frames in place, care should be taken to avoid hammer marks. Disfigurements of this sort are dif- ficult .to conceal and are a con- tinuing blemish on a finished sur- face. . A -precision-made wooden sash often has- a 'tendency to bind to the frame when exposed to exces- sive moisture. This may result from insufficient priming. Once the window frames and sash have been given the required three coats of paint the tendency of .the wood to swell is greatly reduced. Until the sashes are painted or some other type of moisture repellant has been applied, the house should be kept as dry as possible. Prolonged rainy periods may lead to marked swelling in wood that has not been properly moisture -proofed. More- over, until the basement floor has been laid, a certain amount of dampness can be expected through- out the house. Plastering should be postponed until finish wood surfaces have been waterproofed. A great deal of water is used in plastering a house` and some of it will be absorbed by the wood if it has not been pro- perly treated, Woodwork should be dry before putting a plane to it. Otherwise, when the wood loses its moisture doors and sashes will not fit snug- ly. A gap of as much as a quar- ter of an inch may appear between the door and the door frame after the wood has dried out. During the summer months win- dow sash is often not glassed -in or "glazed" immediately. If the•sash is installed temporarily before NOTICE TO PARENTS!! A dangerous situation is being created on No. 8 Highway, opposite .the entrance to the Lions Park, as a result of children leaving their bicycles along the edge of the Highway. ADEQUATE FACILITIES EXIST FOR BICYCLES. WITHIN THE PARK ! Children on bicycles should use the east entrance. The co-operation of parents is requested in im- pressing on their children the fact that bicycles must,be properly parked. Children who persist In leaving their bicycles at the west entrance, in the interestsof highway safety, may be denied the use of the Park as long as the practise continues. SEAFORTH LIONS PARK glazing, care should be taken not to mark the fraile or the sash with the tool used in removing it. These precautions are all the more necessary when the sash and frame 'are of soft -textured wood, such as white pine, often used for this pur-. pose. Some builders nail a piece of rough lumber to windows and ex- terior door sills to prevent dam- age'aur' ag construction. This is good prac tice, provided it is done carefully. Only fnishing nails should be used and nail holes should afterwards be puttied over to remove tell-tale marks. Sash balances are needed for double -hung windows. There are a number of devices for this pur- pose, spring balance probably be: ing the most widely used today. The older cord\and pulley has fall- en into disuse with the introduc- tion of simpler types of frames. Many builders favour balances with a leaf spring since they are inexpensive, simple to install, and are not conspicuous. Factory -built sash and frame units often come equipped with their own balancing devices. It is useful to have both lower and top sash fitted with balances. A slight additional expense is in- volved but many homeowners con- sider the extra convenience well worth it. Factory -built sash equipped with weather-stripping is also becoming increasingly popular. Weather- stripping the windows provides ad- ditional insulation for your house and prevents heat loss at these points. If weather-stripping is be- ing put on by the builder, the job can be postponed until the house is nearing completion. Storm sash and screens, if or- dered at the same time as the regular sash, should be given a priming coat of paint when receiv- ed, then stored in a dry place. If they are properly stacked there should be no danger of the wood warping. At the first opportunity, however, after deciding on the ex- terior colors for the house, the Storm ash should be given three COW of 'yacht.

Not Fault Of Authority Damage claims by cottage own- ers at Port Franks against the Ausable Authority have been dis- missed by a board of engineers, it was revealed at an ARCA execu- tive `meeting fast, week. In a unani- mous decision, the- board stated that the cause Ref shallow' water near the mouth ,of the river in 1958 was the Iow lake level. The report pointed out that the lake level 'in midsummer of -958 was four feet below that of 1952, when the com- plainants acquired cottage,-, lots along the old river bed. The cot- tage owners, William Weir and Robert Greensides, claimed $4,000 damages because of a loss in pro- perty value caused by the dredging of a new channel at the mouth by the Authority. They stated ,this work had caused sand bars in. the old river bed which made it -im- possible for Ahern to reach their cottages by water. -Exeter Times - Advocate. , Seek Tax Reimbursement At the public hearing of the On- tario Water Resources Commis.' sion here Friday relative to the planned sewage system for the town of Mitchell, Reeve J. Wilson Brown, of Fullerton township, ask- ed if compensation would be paid for loss of taxation on property the Commission having planned to take Over some Fullerton land re- quired for lagoons. Mr. Wilson brought out that one school sec- tion in the township would lose a considerable amount in taxes, but he had no estimate of the amount. The reply to his question was that at present there is no provincial legislation establishing payment, in lieu of taxes, for land used by the OWRC. however, C. S. Mac - Naughton, MLA (PC, Huron), who acted as hearing chairman, said be thought there might be some future legislation amendments,•but added that "frankly I am not too sure." Buildings are assessable for taxation.—Mitchell Advocate. It's a Scream From Start to Finish !
