The Wingham Advance-Times, 1946-05-23, Page 6• 'TEft.''' 'PAGE .SIX t. 1.6 "The next place I live in is going to have..." Many an over-expanded household has endured the "bathroom prob.. lem", but lack of ADEQUATE ELECTRIC WIRING is a more subtle irritation. Having to move the chesterfield to plug in the vacuum cleaner, for instance, just because the only wall outlet is back there ; ; . with all the lamps and the radio hooked up to it. And then there is the new range or water heater you would like to have if the main wiring would only stand the strain. That is where the real rub comes ; ; . when you can't use some new electrical convenience until new wiring is installed for it. Many homes are not wired for modern demands. As more appli- ances become available, the use of electricity keeps right on climbing, and makeshift wiring adjustments lead to trouble. That is why it is so necessary for you to insist on adequate wiring for your home, be it old or new. Hydro rates have been reduced until they are now among the lowest in the world. Enjoy full benefit of low-cost electrical servants by having your home adequately wired. A good electrical contractor knows• how to wire adequately, and your local Hydro will gladly give you information. If you are improving or building a home,, ask your Hydro for the book- let, "Adequate Wiring for the Postwar Electric Homes of Canada.'.' wt:., Clean up Paint up Plant up — Beautify your community WHITECHURCH Mrs. A.

We want them to enjoy themselves . . . it's in our own interest to see they get the very finest of everything we can give them. WHAT CAN I DO? The answer is plenty! Here are some of the things anyone can do. These practical suggestions come from a well-known Ontario Hotelman: 1. Know the places of interest and beauty spots in your district and tell people all about them. 2. When you write your friends in the States tell them about the places they would really enjoy visiting. 3. Try to make any visitor glad he came to Canada. 4. Take the time to give any requested information fully and graciously. 5. In business dealings, re- member Canada's reputation for courtesy and fairness depends on you. 6. To sum it up, follow the' "Golden Rule." • Worth his weight in gold! The Province of Ontario profits to almost the Same extent froth tourist bUsi- nese as it does from the gold mining industry.

How can I check the proper value of coupons? A :—All stores have a monthly con- sumer coupon calendar which gives the proper value of the sugar-pre- serves coupon with respect to all kinds of canned fruit and preserves. Q:—Last November I bought a 1927 Whippet and paid $226 for it, I would like to sell it or trade it in' for a better used car. What will I get for it if I sell it? A:-.-Ceiling prices on cars vary ac- cording to- the type of car and acces- sories. Will you please tell us if the car is a four cylinder or a six cylin- der, a Coach, sedan or coupe and list its accessories. Then we shall be able to quote you the correct ceiling price, Q:--We have in our possession and for sale an 'extensive supply of rock elm suitable for large timbers, What is the ceiling price of such material standing, 'or in log measure. Q:—My daughter is attending Normal School anti boarding in London. Her landlady wants her sugar-preserves coupons for canning. Must she give them up when I shall need them. A:—We have had many queries such as this. The Ration Administration has no regulation compelling a boarder to give up sugar for can- ning coupons. We would suggest that your -daughter and the landlady reach an amicable settlement be- tween themselves.
