For safety's sake, if you are planning on using a raised platform, be sure it is rigged from two strong ladders and a wide plank, Otherwise you may enjoy your new room from the confines of a recovery bed. Allow the plank to extend at least a foot beyond the step of the ladder on which it rests and make sure the ladders are fully open and locked in position. When painting toys or children's furniture be sure to use a paint designed for use on indoor surfaces. Paint made for outdoor use usually contains more lead than that made for indoor use. Outdoor paint should never be used on toys, .walls, woodwork, furniture or anywhere inside the home. From the price point of view be wary of excessively low prices as the dealer may be trying to clear his shelves of old, deteriorated stock. Unlike many other commodities, the higher the price, the better the quality. A good paint lasting three or more years is a better buy than a cheap paint that will wash off in one year. Useful inforthatiOri such as this appears regularly in the bimonthly magazine, "Cariadian Consumer."

To make your painting easier, remove all hardware and light fixtures from the room and cover with masking tape. Kitchen and bathroom walls should be washed with household cleansers to remove dirt and grease. Cover all floors and furniture with drop-cloths before painting because a few spatters are inevitable. Now you are ready to apply the undercoating or primer. By dipping the bristles of your brush no more than one-third of their length• you can minimize clean-up problems. Save yourself extra work by wiping with a damp cloth before the spatters dry. Start with the ceiling and work across the width of the room, so you can begin the second lap before the first has dried. 'And remember — don't try to move your ladder with paint or tools aboard. Now begin on the walls and watch your room take shape. Start at the upper left hand corner and work down toward the floor. Follow this order whether you are using a brush or a roller. Finally, tackle the woodwork., A round -one-inch brush is handy for the window sash; a two-inch brush makes painting the trim a simple affair. When you paint panelled doors it's a good idea to coat the panels first then the centre rail. The top and bottom rails come next, then the vertical stiles and edges last. As soon as you are finished, clean up your brushes and tools so they will be in good shape for your next painting spree. Good brushes are a wise investment but must be cared for and should be cleaned and stored carefully. CAC reminds you that there are certain dangers in connection with painting. Virtually all solvents used with paint for thinning and cleaning up are toxic and highly flammable. These must be kept away from children. It is advisable to dispose of all paint rags immediately but at least spread Ontario Where are three of our most famous historical figures buried? Which is the oldest remaining church in the City of Toronto? When was the City of Peterborough established? The answers to these and many more questions on the history of Ontario are contained in the book Historic Ontario. The, famous graveyard is St. Andrews West where Simon Fraser, the great explorer of the Fraser River in B.C., John Sandfield Macdonald, ntario's first Prime Minister and Miles Macdonell, the superintendent of Lord Selkirk's ill-fated Red River Colony lie buried. The oldest established .church., in Toronto is Little Trinity Church, built in 1834 on King Street East. Peterborough was established by Adam Scott in 1820 but its real growth came in 1825 when a settlement of Irish emigrants was sponsored by the British government. Put out by the Ontario Department of Tourism and Information, Historic Ontario is a quick source of information on the province's more famous historical sights. It is ideal to take on a trip around the province to point out sights that are easily missed in today's rushed style of travel. Historic Ontario sells for $1.75 at the Ontario Government Bookstore, 880 Bay Street or it is available by a prepaid order to Queen's Printer and Publisher, Publications, Parliament Buildings, Toronto 2. Painting in and around your home can be easier than you think and for consumer savings is still the cheapest, quickest and best way to achieve a fresh look. Almost any room can be changed with an investment of only a few dollars. Consumers' Association of Canada suggests that if you are not too knowledgeable in this field, your paint dealer will give you all the information you require on accessories such as brushes, rollers, putty, edgers and so on. But before you go to the dealer, measure the area you are going to paint and ask him to estimate how much it will require. He will be able to give you a closer estimate than you can arrive at yourself. One point to consider: if the estimate should come to three quarts, it might be wiser to buy the gallon for the few, added cents it will cost for the extra quart. It will come in handy for touchups as the next time you go to buy the paint it might be a different batch and slightly different in color. An executive of one of the world's largest paint companies once said "We do not make money on the paint we sell, but rather on the yaint the consumer viiisteS." " ' So a real money-saver is to be sure to seal the left-over paint properly. Clean the rim and lid of the can thoroughly with whatever solvent is recommended and seal it, gently tapping the lid in place with a hammer. Store the can upside down. By following this procedure, even enamel should remain in excellent condition. The best single piece of advice is, read the label before you apply the paint. The label directions are not advertising. They are written for a purpose and for your information. The Canadian Paint Manufacturers Association suggests every instruction be followed to the letter if you want a beautiful paint job and offers some guidance for do-it-yourself painters. Don't jump in without first making the necessary preparations. Fill all cracks in plaster walls with spackling material, using a putty knife, a kitchen knife or a versatile finger and thumb. When the patching is completely dry, sand the surface GARBAGE COLLECTION For MONDAY, AUGUST 3 WILL BE PICKED UP SATURDAY, AUGUST 1
