Many students from both Courtice and Bowmanville shifts attended. Everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. It was a dress-up dance and the girls all wore spring dresses and the boys suits and sports- jackets. Ben Dickenson of BHS was the lucky winner of the door prize. He can get any long-playing album he chooses from Higgon Electric. Many came a little worried but were relieved to find they didn't have to waltz all night. This dance was sponsored by Senior Commercial with Bill Bickle as MC. For entertainment the Scott brothers played several popular pieces on their electric guitars. Charlie Trim, a natural come- dian, kept the auditorium rock- ing with his hilarious jokes. All in all it was a terrific dance and Senior Commercial deserves our congratulations. On Wednesday, Carnagie Tests in English and Composition were written by Grade 10 students.

WHITMAN REVARNISHING DOOR QUESTION: The outside sur- face of my front door needs re- finishing. When I revarnish, how could I make the last coat go on smoothly? The door is not blistered. ANSWER: Before revarnish- ing, be sure the surface is free of all trace of grime, soot, dust, |wax, etc., and any gloss should {be dulled for better adhesion of {the new coating. Wipe the surface with fine steel wool and turpentine, then apply top quaj- ity spar varnish in several coats, being sure each coat has thoroughly dried before apply- ing the next and dulling the gloss by light rubbing with fine steel wool. Be sure not to shake the can of varnish; air bubbles may form and be carried to the door surface, causing imperfec- tions. Apply the. varnish in straight strokes, along the grain, never across the grain. When the brush is empty, again |brush over the same area to |carry the varnish forward and spread it in an even coat. | WATER-STAINED FLOOR | QUESTION: Is it possible tof remove water stains from a| (hard oak floor? | ANSWER: Usually the an- swer is "yes."

SUN DECK QUESTION: We are building a home and planning to have a sun deck over the garage, lead- ing from the living room. What is best to use for the floor? What type of railing? ANSWER: Roofing canvas, available at roofing supplies dealers, gives highly satisfac- tory service and requires*a min- imum of maintenance. Various types of wood or metal railing are available at building sup- plies dealers. PEELING PAINT QUESTION: Is there anything that can be painted or ce-| mented to a metal shower base? | The paint peels, leaving rust. I have tried a rust-inhibitive paint, but that doesn't hold up either. We use very hot water. ANSWER: Use the rust-inhibi- tive paint, as you have been do- ing, after first removing all trace of loose and scaling rust with steel wool and turpentine, or one of the rust - removing preparations now available at most paint dealers. Then apply a coat of top quality enamel or a ceramic-like liquid tile coat- ing; this will resist water pene- tration which is causing the paint to peel. WHITE-LEAD WHITE PAINT QUESTION: How can I pre- pare white paint from white lead paste? ANSWER: The department of agriculture suggests the follow- ing formula for making white- lead outside house paint: (To make white paint, use refined linseed oil, specially treated to lighten the color, and pale Japan instead of ordinary dark drier); seven gallons of paint when thinned; white lead paste, 10 pounds; linseed oil, two gallons; Japan drier, one pint; turpen- tine, one pint. PAINT REMOVER QUESTION: Is there a for- mula for making a paint re- mover at home? I wish to GALLUP POLL By CANADIAN INSTITUTE OF PUBLIC OPINION Most Canadian voters don't look for any significant impact, politically, from the New Party. Across the country, about four in ten say it definitely will not become an important force; al- most four in ten can't even hazard a guess, while two in ten look for strength in the new combination of CCF and Labor forces. Among the one in five who anticipate a political threat, opinions divide very closely as to whether Liberals or Conserv- atves will lose most votes to the New Party. On the average there is rather more expecta- tion that present Government forces will suffer more than Liberals. Impact Of New Party = On Electorate Gauged ~ 2 or 3 per cent of the voters would mark their ballots for the New Party in an immediate Federal election. To get the views of the public on attitudes toward the new political entry, Gallup Poll re- porters 'were assigned to ask questions of a representative sample of the Canadian people. They first found out how many had heard of the New Party. Nationally two in three have done so; one in three has not. Next question: 'Some people think that this new party, based on a labor and CCF union will become an important force in the country; others say that it will not. What is your opinion? While on most political issues there are strong contrasts of opinion between the East and West, on this matter, public Since first ement of its formation, the Gallup Poll's reg- ular Political Round-up of party standings has shown that about Will New Party Become An Important Force? Canada East Ontario West Reporters asked all those who said they looked for considerable political strengths in the New Party, from which of the pres- os ®esesscssessessnnss ent parties it would draw most votes. In asking the question inter- viewers rotated the order of naming Conservatives and Lib- erals to avoid any first-named bias. "Apart 'rom the CCF, from which party do you think it will draw most votes -- from the Liberals or the Conservatives?" Which party will Suffer most? Conservatives Liberals Others Don't know Equally from both 38% 26 1 20 5 100% Quebec and Western voters who look for political strength are more likely than others to think the Conservatives will lose most votes to the New Party. In Ontario the people who think this way split evenly those who think Conservatives will feel the im- pact most; and those who believe it will hit the Liberals hardest. World Copyright Reserved bathroom and can't afford to spend too much on commercial paint removers. ANSWER: An inexpensive paste paint remover may be made by mixing trisodium phos- phate with twice as much Ful- ler's earth or whiting and add- ing enough water to make a paste. Apply one-half inch layer with a putty knife or trowel and allow to remain about an hour; then scrape off and rinse the surface with clear water, to remove all trace of the chemi- cals. Should warn you that a paint - removing job this size will be tedious and messy. CHARCOAL ON WOOD FLOOR QUESTION: Is there any way to remove charcoal from a varnished floor. One of the chil- dren had some on his shoes and walked on the floor. I have tried cleaner, detergents and am- monia, to no avail. ANSWER: Try using a clean- up wax made by a nationally known manufacturer. Or fine pinion runs at much the same level across the country. The West is a little more interested --but not much more.

McINTYRE HOOD NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE -- Two Capadian maple trees, brought specially to Tyneside from Canada, have been plant- ed at Newcastle-Upon-Tyne by, Roy H. Thomson, chairman of Thomson Newspapers, Limited.

Thomson Park will be used as a recreational centre by employees of his news- papers, the Journal, the Even- ing Chronicle and the Sunday Sun. The maple trees will mark the chairman's link with Canada, FOR EVERYBODY "I am tremendously impress- ed with the idea of having a park of this kind," said Mr. Thomson. "There is something here for everybody." There were similar parks in Canada, he added, but they were much smaller. "lI am greatly honored that you have seen fit to name this place after me." R. Clough, director and gen- eral manager, Newcastle Chron- icle and Journal, Limited, said that he hoped that one day Thomson Park would be the most attractive sports field on Tyneside. "It is going to be a nicer place," he said, 'because so many people in the office have put their hearts into it. It is good for Mr. Thomson to know that in" Newcastle his employ- ees have time to play as well as to work." Mr. Clough presented Mr. Thomson with a Lindisfarne sil- ver salver, to commemorate the occasion.
