BAILEY 400 Marlborough St, GOOD REASONS SUGGEST ELECTRIC HEATING W. BURTON 141 Gidley St. E. P. DURAND 107 Anne St, 1. SAFETY Flameless, automatic electric heating is just as safe as your electric light. There are no fumes, no pilot lights, no burned-up oxygen to worry about. There's no danger of fire. 2. ECONOMY Electric heating is available at Special New Rates. You can save in other ways too- no annual inspection or maintenance - no need for chimney or flue - there are never any major repairs. Electric heating equip- ment lasts as long as your house. C. BRINTNELL 3. CLEANLINESS J. SCHROEDER 126 Huron St. W. Electric heating is dust and soot free - doesn't dirty 172 Huron St. W. walls and drapes - saves you money on cleaning and redecorating. It's as clean as electric lighting. 4. COMFORT Electric heat is gentle and steady. No hot blasts, cold spots or uncomfortable drafts. It's not stuffy and dry. And it's quiet - no roars, hisses or rushing air. 5. CONVENIENCE Individual room temperature controls enable you to se- lect the temperature you prefer in living areas, bath- rooms and bedrooms. Electric heat saves space. There are no registers. 6. VERSATILITY No matter what your heating problem, electric has the answer. If you wish air conditioning in the summer you should consider the electric furnace or the heat pump. If you wish a concealed system, electric cable in your ceiling Is the answer. Baseboard convectors, fan forc- ed units, as well as many others are also available. J. FAIRBAIRN 148 Sanders St. W. L.

" Spring has sprung, the grass has riz, I wonder where the boidies iz. The bold is on the wing, ain't that absoid, I always thought the wing was on the bold. (Anon) Yes the crocus are blooming and, as this picture shows, bees are already hunting for food, a sign that winter is fast disappearing. And another sign of spring is the sap dripping into pails along Town- ship roads. This photo was taken near the Morrison Dam on an afternoon when it was too nice to stay in the office. (T-A photos) — Continued from page 4 take up a collection and buy me a package of blades, all In good sport you understand. You must be prepared for such comments as "ah, one of the Smith brothers I presume". And from those who don't know you, you will get such comments as, "What is he? some kind of a nut?" Don't be discouraged by the comments and above all don't let anyone know they bother you or life will be miserable. People get accustomed to almost any- thing and you have to remember the people making the comments are doing this out of jealousy. They would really like to grow one as well but don't, either be- cause it comes out scraggly or because their wives have threat- ened to divorce them. It will be interesting to see how many beards are grown for the centennial or using this as an excuse. I won't say who the other fellow is who promised to grow a beard with me. If he keeps his word it should be apparent by the time this column is published.
