FIRST AID to the
-MA A|LING HOUSE
by Roger c. Whitman

QUESTION: Is it advisable to
wash the house before painting?
If so, what is the best cleaning
agent to use?
ANSWER: Professional painters
do not wet surfaces shortly before
painting. They use wire brushes,
steel wool, turpentine, and some
times a blow-torch to take off old
paint. Steel wool and turpentine
usually serve to clean the surface
sufficiently for paint to adhere.
Paint remover can be used if nee
essary to remove old paint. Follow
by thorough cleaning with turpen-
tine. Brushing off the dust is usual
ly sufficient.
QUESTION:: We are about to
move into house that has wood
clapboard siding. 1t has no spout
ing. Would you advise copper
spouting, or will it stain the walls?
ANSWER: On paint containing
zinc there may be some discolora-
ton from copper. On straight lead
paint the discoloration will wash
away. Copper has the great ad-
vantage of being non-rusting, and
for this reason is very economical.
To prevent discoloration you could
apply spar varnish on the spout
ing, renewing it from time to time
whenever necessary, or you could
paint it.
QUESTION:: Our window frames
are made of soft pine and are fin
ished in enamel. Condensation
causes water to run down the
panes and soften the enamel,
which peels off in flakes. 1t is
only the lower part of the frame
that peels; the other parts are in
good condition. How can the
frame be waterproofed?
ANSWER: Your windows may
; need to be re-puttied. Before win
ter you should plan to have storm
sash put on the windows to pre-
vent the condensation. In the
meantime, scrape off the failing
paint, wipe the wood with turpen-
tine and refinish with two coats
enamel undercoater and coat of
enamel.

Board OF Review
Rules On Appeal
Workers Appeal
Denied By Board

A worker who quit his job
because of a temporary ailment
though subsequently available
for work-was held to have left
his job without just cause and
therefore ineligible for benefits
in decision handed down yes
terday for the Unemployment
Compensation Board of Review.
The Boards ruling, made with
one of its three members dis
senting, came in the case of a
Fremont man who had left his
employment as a steamfitter on
construction job because of leg
pains. The board found that the
employer had encouraged the
claimant to remain on the job
despite the fact that he had pre-
viously had to take several days
off because of the leg.
The board noted that the leg
ailment had reacted to heat
treatments and that there was
no possibility that it could be
considered a permanent disabil-
ity. The board further found that
when the claimant contacted his
doctor the latter had not rec
commended that the former quit
his job because of the leg con-
dition.
The worker testified that
muddy working conditions" had
caused his ailment. He therefore
asserted that he had quit his job
with just cause and was avail
able for any other job for which
he was reasonably fitted.
The board did not question the
claimants availability for work.
1t did question that he had quit
his job for just cause. The board
cited the Ohio law which states
that "no individual may {.
be paid benefits" if such individ-
ual voluntarily quits his work
without just cause in connection
with his work"
In denying the workers ap-
peal for benefits, the board con-
cluded: "Since the employer was
willing for the claimant to re-
main in its employ, there ap-
pears to be no reason why the
claimant should have severed
the employment relationship.

the various appropriations surely
was an important factor in these
last days.
An attempt was made to ad-
just salaries of state employees.
The deaf and blind children will
probably get much-needed new
school, the state universities, in
Guiding Wilberforce, were well
subsidized, but very little done
in any way for the public
schools-nothing for construction
of new buildings, nothing for sal
ary increase whereby Ohio might
be able to hold her present
teachers and entice new people
into the profession,-a little for
rehabilitation and a little for
school buses.
1t is very evident that cam
paign promises were broken and
party platforms forgotten in sew
eral matters, but the people will
be able soon to evaluate the ac-
complishments of the 98th gen.
eral assembly and place the re-
sponsibility where it rightfully
belongs.

THE CHRISTIAN RACE
PART III CONCLUSION

Text: "Know we not that they
which run in race run all but
one receiveth the prize, so run
that we may obtain" | Cor. 9:24
In our former inStallment we
stated that before the Athenian
or Olympian racer came upon
the race course, several things
were suggested to him; one was
to run light, second, that he
ran in the presence Of witnesses,
and the third that there was a
crown at the end of the race.
The Apostle Paul in Heb. II; l..
says, Wherefore seeing that we
are compassed about with so
great a cloud of witnesses let us
lay aside every weight and the
sin which does so easily beset
us and let US run with patience
the race which is set before u.s..
The Prophets, saints, and seers
who lived by faith and saw from
afar the blessings of Christ's
Kingdom, are interested in our
faithfulneSs, for without us, their
life work cannot be brought to
completion. Abraham the pion-
eer of faith; Moses, the lawgiv-
er; Isiah, the prophet Paul, the
Apostle; Martin Luther, the
father of the Reformation; David
Livingstone, the missionary, and
thousands of others are counting
on us to run the Christian race
successfully and to finish the.
course in triumph.
Finally, it was suggested to
them that there was a crown at
the end of the race. Different
crowns are mentioned in the
Bible. There is the crown of life
for faithful service. "Be thou
faithful unto death and / will
give you crown of life. There
is the crown Of rejoicing for low
ing the Lords return. Also the
crown that is incorruptible for
enthusiastic service.
In conclusion, it would be sad
to put forth much effort and
fail in the race because we
thought some other way was as
good as His way. So the Apostle
says, 81 keep under my body and
bring it into subjection lest after
/ have preached to other / my
self might be a castaway. This is
where the crux of the Christian
life comes, lie, in keeping the
spiritual on top and the animal
under. This means as great an
effort as fighting a major en-
gagement. So, / bring you a
great race, and as the Apostle
says, Il beseech you that ye SO
run that you may obtain"
