Query-What do you think of paint as
an Investment. aside from the appearance
1t lends? Does 1t really PAY to paint a
house regularly. say. every three or four
years?
Answer.-Good paint properly ap-
piled when needed Is the main thing in
making house last long and well. A
house worth $500 can be painted at a
cost of about $125. In 60 years that
house will need about l5 paintings,
the total cost of which will be ST, ,S05.
Left without paint, such house would
fall into complete ruin in 30 years. So
taking GO years as basis for our fig
uras 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 30 years and
would be ready for another complete
renovation when the sixtieth year ar
rived. Cost, without paint, $1,000 for
home ready to fall to pieces. Does
regular painting pay? AS the old
Dutch adage says:
"PAlNT PAYS FOR ITSELF"

OUEsTIONNAIRE E
ANSWERS WHICH WILL SOLVE
PERPlExlNo PROBLEMS OF
THIS RECONSTRUCTION ERA.

Query.-The government has launche0
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.-Tt 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-
ditions were 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 Off, and there Is
scarcely town, city, factory. a
dwelling or 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 will collect higher bill in
deterioration and decay.

LYRIC

The sensational mystery play "The Unknown Voice" is now playing to crowded houses twice daily at the Lyric theatre. Although 1t can be called detective play and probably will be by some it will be remember ed by all as mystery play because of the mystifiCation of the audiences until the very end of the last act.
 In The Unknown Voice" the audi ence is held fascinated from the rise to the fall of the curtain wondering who will really be the person guilty of the murder which occurs in the first act. Even the chief of police who is called in fails. to throw any light upon the mystery until the mur- derer discloses his identity when haunted by the spirit of the woman whom he has killed. The author of the play holds close to the theme of the story and while unfolding the plot he deftly shuffles and mixes the incidents so that they become more complex and tangled as the play pro- gresses. ;sa.f sag.ss..ss. 7sag1s
 Next week the Poli Players will again launch into comedy with that much advertised and popular produc- ton Tt Pays to Advertise" It is a comedy of more than usual merit and when presented by the Poli Players will lose nothing of it's former value.

He took with him O list of players, and War Department officials under took to locate the men for him in or der that the clubs may arrange to have them file applications for dis charge.
 MT. Johnson conferred with General March, Chief of Staff. So far as known there will be no change in the policy of the department not to issue any special order in favor Of baseball players, but to treat them as all other soldiers are treated and leave it to their immediate commanders to pass upon their applications for discharge Since the league players have their places awaiting them, however, they fall within the class of soldiers com handing officers have been authorized to discharge without delay where mil itary efficiency would not be injured by that action.
