where is that draft coming
from?" This is a question you will
often hear asked-or a question
some one frequently feels like ask
ing-in many homes today. The
doors are all closed-the windows
are all down-but still there's
draft.
Where does all this dust come
from?" There's another question
you have probably often asked your
self.
No matter how often nor how
thoroughly the house is cleaned it
seems that soiled curtains and
draperies and dirt streaked walls
can not be prevented. If you want
to find out-easily and simply
where all those drafts and all that
dust come from, just hold a lighted
candle to doors or windows, with
the flame a half inch away from
the crack between the door or win
dow and the frame. See if the
flame doesn't flicker or blow to one
side.
Increases Heating Load
You may not be able to feel the
draft with your hand, but the can
die test will prove that it is there.
A test of this kind usually reveals
many such drafty places around any
home-cracks that are leaking dust
and cold air into the home % hours
day. 1t is estimated that 80 cubic
feet of cold air leaks in the average
window a minute. All of this cold
air must be heated-all of it brings
in dust and dirt.

How to Remove Paint

Do not use strong I've water to re-
move paint. 1t is dangerous to use
in the strength necessary to remove
paint. If paint is to be removed
from the exterior of a building it
may be done with a painters blow
torch, burning the paint off. Care
must be taken to prevent setting
fire to the building On interior

EARLY standings of most of
II loops of the city prove that the
teams making up the various leagues
are well-balanced. Few leaders are
making runaway races and in many
leagues the standings may be
changed over night through a clean
sweep by some victorious five.
Closeness of many of the game
scores further evidences the even
ness Of most aggregationS. Two to
one victories have ruled thus far in
the deciding of team series, and
many winners have barely breezed
through with slim margins of a few
pins.
The hardfought league races Gre

leagues are to be commended on
their distribution of the heavier

Stockholders in Cornerstone

Visions of riches are floating be-
fore the eyes of many Kennewlck
residents who are stockholders IN
tha Cornerstone mine in Idaho,
since the return yesterday OF d.
W. Desgranges from California,
where he had gone to purchase
machinery. -.
With the new methods recently
developed, Mr.. Desgranges is GER
tain that the Cornerstone property
will in the near future mean as
much 20 Kennewick as the Bunker
Hill has meant to Spokane or the
Sunshine mine has meant to Yak

biggest thing people Of Kennewick

commerce luncheon today and talk

the deal meant much to Kennewick
Mr.. Desgranges said, was due to
the fact that about two-thirds OF
the stock was held by Kennewick
people. He said the equipment ne
brought back from California
would handle 25 tons of ore per
day at a net profit of 1925; that if,
alter a reasonable test it was dis
covered to be as profitable as it
now looked, that additional ma
chinery could be added to step up
production to any point.
It will be from so to 80 days
Mr.. Desgranges said, before the
equipment would be in full opera

Having accumulated a substan-

This move will save the Dis

payment in that year, according to
