ONE HUNDREDTH ANNIVER-
SARY OF ST. CLAIR COUNTY

Consideration is being given by
the county Board of Supervisors
to the question of observing the
one-hundredth anniversary of the
founding of st. Clair county.
w. l.. jerks brought the matter
to the attention of the Board that
the boundaries of the county were
set by the late Governor Lewis
Cass on May %, 1920 and that the
county seat was established on
May 8, 1921. 1t seems fitting that
such an historic date should be
commemorated by some proper
celebration. The chairman Of the
Board named Supervisors Myron
w. Mills, Patrick Cotter, j. G.
Brown, Frank Mallon and Donald
Mcqueen as a committee to begin
preparations for such an event.

PAINT PROTECTION
AND ITS ECONOMY.

The preservation Of structural M
terials, which may be obtained through
the application Of paint, constitutes a
most vital means of furthering the con-
servatlon of our natural resources. 1t
Is, moreover, the most economical
method of sustaining the appearance
and general upkeep Of any commu-
nifty.
A structure cos ted with sheets of In
dia rubber would not be as well protect
ed from decay az structure coated
with good oil paint This is due to
the fact that sheet Of rubber is not
so durable or as waterproof as thin
dried film of paint. The latter mate
rial when applied dries to continuous
elastic 6lm containing finely divided
particles OF metallic. wear resisting
pigments. A square foot Of such a
film upon a wooden surface costs less
than a penny, yet 1t will beautify and
protect a dollars worth of surface for
many years. This is low rate Of in.
Surance.
Dwellings, barns, outbulldings, sheds,
posts, fences, stock enclosures, wagons,
implements, windmills and other struc-
lures, whether of wood, iron or cement,
should be preserved, through the use
of paint from rapid decay. High grade
paint may be used successfully for all
such purposes. Colored paints will be
found the most seviceable, the eolorlng
matter In the paint adding from two
to three years to the life of the coating.

Query.--what do you think OF paint as
an investment. aside from the appearances
II lends? Does 1t really PAY to paint =
house regularly, say. every three or four
years?
Answer.--Good paint properly APP
Piled when needed is the main thing in
making 2 house last long and well A
house worth $500 can be painted at
cost of about SIPS. In 80 years that
house will need about Is paintings,
the total cost Of which will be $1,S95.
Left without paint, such house would
fall into complete ruin in 80 years SO
taking 60 years as basis for our fig
ures we find that with paint home
will last that time In good condition
and will cost, plus paint, $4,375. With
out paint the house would have to be
rebuilt at the end of 80 years and
would be ready for another complete
renovation when the sixtieth year ar
rived. Cost, without paint, $4,000 for
a home ready to fall to pieces. Does
regular painting payf AS the old
Dutch adage says:

QUESTIONABLE
ANSWERS WHICH WILL SOLVE
PERPLExiNo PROBLEMS or
THIS REcoNsTRUcTioH ERA.

Query.-The government has launched
an educational campaign TO encourage
building in order to put more men to
work. Would not a similar movement to
show how the old structures can be best
and most economically repaired and made
good as new also help7
Answer.--It is learned that such
plan is in effect and IS linked directly
with the Washington propaganda.
Industry must be turned back from
works of war to the ways Of peace.
Employment must be found, In the
meanwhile, for those whose occupa-
ton has been interrupted. There is no
real surplus of labor In the United
States. Rather there Is shortage.
which would be acute II normal condI-
dltions we're already restored. and one
step towards restoring them will come
with resumption of repair work.
Government restrictions, imposed by
the necessities of the war program,
have for many months past retarded
or altogether prevented construction,
Improvement and repairs. These re-
strictions are now of, and there ls
scarcely town, city, factory a
dwelling or a farm that does not reveal
a crying need for prompt attention
Nothing delays such instant action ex-
cept the feeling that prices are high
for the time being and may be lower.
That Is not logical. No matter what
1t costs to repair, the cost is less than
the cost OF neglect. No matter what
the cost of paint, the wind and tho
weather win collect higher bill in
deterioration and decay.
