T2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Fridey, October 31, 1958 House On The Market? Give It Sales Appeal F By ELEANOR ROSS Moving, everywhere, is on the Increase. This isn't only the re- sult of new housing developments, but of business growth, too, opening and established busines- ses are branching out into more stores or offices in various parts «' the country, So there is a y amount of selling and buy- of houses going on all the There's a lot of good advice availabie on how to buy or build a new house, but how about ad- wice on how to sell a home? QUICKEST SALE For one thing, the home that is going to have the quickest and best sale is the house that has been kept in perfect condition from cellar to roof. Good bathroom space and eloset space are vital, as is plenty of storage space. When you put your house on the market, be sure that the win- dows are freshly washed. Have the bathroom immaculate and keep it so, giving it a going-over daily. Same goes for the kitchen and its equipment from sink to eabinet doors. Look to the flooring and see that floors and coverings are elean, with the wood well waxed and gleaming. Window curtains should be erispiy clean, and Venetian blinds or shades should be in good work- ing condition. Put your best clean bedspreads on beds. Turn on lights in darkened rooms and see to it that little used rooms, such as guest rooms, sparkle like the rest of the house, KITCHENS AND CLOSETS The. Construction Research Bur- eau advises us, and rightly, that women are usually more inter- ested in the kitchen and closet space, while men pay special attention to basements and utility rooms. So put these in order, too. Regardless of which area of the house seems most important, cleanliness will be a ieading fac- tor, psychologically speaking. Edmonton Couple Hold Anniversary 45 Years Late EDMONTON (CP) -- Mr. and Mrs. Elias Polson of Edmonton have been married 45 years but held their first wedding-anniver- sary celebration only this year, Shortly after the couple's mar- riage in 1913 at Enderby, B.C., a box of papers was lost in a basement flood. The marriage certificate was in the box amd the couple over, could agree on the date on which they had been married. So they never cele- brated an anniversary. 15 was their a daughter-in-law, Mrs, 'Enar Lars Polson, wrote to the British Col- They have two sons and five daughters. English System Proves Successful With Delinquent Boys and Girls EDMONTON (CP)--A woman Justice of the peace says England rehabilitates 80 'per cent of its Juvenile delinquents, Peggy Simmons of Grays, Es- sex, said in an interview here that in England delinquents are carefully studied to determine what course rehabilitation should take. Miss Simmons, in Canada to visit Girl Guide companies under a King George VI bursary, said that in England, as in Canada, more boys than girls come be- fore the juvenile courts. STUDY EACH CASE Each county has its own re mand home, where girls and boys- are sent for three weeks' observation before treatment is decided. Youngsters who commit- ted different types of offences are kept separated while psychiatric, medical and school reports are considered, If the child's home environ- ment is found unsatisfactory, he is sent from the remand school to a classifying school, where au- thorities using all the reports of experts decide what type of cor- rection school is best for the youngster, For a child who has always bad dificulty in school, and for whom persistent failure may have been a contributing factor in delinquency, there are trade schools. A boy may learn wood- work or metalwork, for instance, or gardening, while a girl may study dressmaking, cookery or commercial subjects. After the child leaves the cor- rection school and takes a job, he or she is frequently visited by a social worker. Tey know that courts. In adult cases, three jus- tices of the peace sit on a raised platform, but in juvenile cases they come off the bench and face the child directly in an attempt to encourage him te talk more freely. "When I'm trying some of those Teddy - Boys, though I wouldn't mind being back on the bench," Miss Simmons said. She feels the so-called Teddy - Boys, "teen-agers with: their own. style of dress, "are usually without a great deal of ability. They have to show off in some way or an- other." She was chosen as a justice of the peace because of her long career in Girl Guide work. She has been active in Guiding for 28 years, and now is captain of the company she joined as a Girl Guide 28 years ago. It was for her organizational work with the Girl uides all over England that Miss Simmons won the bursary for her present trip. She reached Canada early in July, and will leave for home on Dec, 5, BIGGER GALLON An Imperial gallon of water weighs 10 pounds, compared to 8 1-3 pounds for the U. S. galion. W.A. PRESIDENT Mrs, A.

Northminster United Church came into being on September 13, 1946, when seven couples met at the home of Rev. and Mrs. B. 8, Morwood to discuss the forming of a married couples' group. Of the original group, two couples, Mr. 2nd Mrs, Jack Piatti and Mr, and Mrs. Kenneth Farrow, are the only ones still with the club. The primary reason for the club was to give Christian fel- lowship and wholesome recre- ation to young couples in the growing aorth end of the city. Added to this was the hope that these couples would make North- minster their church home, al- though # has never been a requisite of the club that mem- bere belong to, or attend the church, To assist couples with small children in church attendance, the club instituted a service of baby-sitting. This service has been continuous and is still one of the major projects of assistance to the church, The first executive was elected in January, 1947, with Mr, and Mrs. George Perkin as presi- dents. ? Although the club was primar- ily a social group at first, with the intensive building program of Northminster, the club undertook many projects to assist in that program. Several auction sales cleared the attics of friends and neigh- bors, to add to funds. The club staged a play, "Oh Aunt Jerusha" and a variety show, "Mellow Moments' to add to the coffers and increase fellowship. tary, Mrs. E: 8. Dafoe; treasurer, Mrs. R.
