sonite quarter-inch tempered cardboard.
This material comes in four-foot widths
and lengths up to II feet. 1t has smooth
surface which is widely known for its
durability and resistance to moisture.
The cardboard is extremely tough and
will wear a long time.
It's a good idea to keep panel on
hand around the home or farm because
cardboard has so many uses. Men and
boys who are handy with tools will find
innumerable household furnishings and
gadgets can be made incorporating this
versatile material. Hundreds of manufac-
turers use tempered cardboard in furni-
ture lines and thousands use them in
their factories as bench and table tops,
the surfaces Of pallets and trays, as aisle
runners and mats and in other spots
requiring unusual variability.

For Farm and Home
Resurface Utility Tables

UTILITY tables are common neces-
- sity on the farm and in the home.
It's good idea to check the condition OF
their tops occasionally. To give the best
service, the tops should be smooth. hard
and simple to clean. Rough, worn tops
make work difficult. Those that are hard
to clean are unsanitary, and in most cases
sanitation is very important.
If utility table in the workshop, base
ment, milkhouse, dairy barn, feed room
or garage needs a new top, it may be
covered very easily with panel OF Ma

APPEAL MADE
FOR RETURN OF
XMAS SEAL FUND
Receipts Are $500 Short OF
Quota In Fight Against
tuberculosis

Mrs. Ray Claus, county chair
man of the recent 1949 Christmas
Seal Sale, today issued an appeal
urging all county residents who
have not done so to acknowledge
their Christmas Seal letters since
total receipts to date are still
100000 short of Ottawa county's
quota.
Returns on the seal sale are still
coming in to the associations
headquarters and we cannot en-
phasize too strongly the fact that
there is still time to make pay
ment for Christmas Seals, al
though the campaign officially
closed at Christmas.
Seal Sale funds work the year
round to bring tuberculosis under
complete control in Ottawa county.
Hence, contributions now are as
welcome as they were during the
official campaign season and are
still credited to your 1949 cam
paign. Reaching our quota will
mean that the health education,
finding, and rehabilitation
projects of the association can not
only be continued but can also be
improved and expanded during the
new year.
Because of the excellent sup
port county residents have given
the association and its fund rails
ing campaign in previous years,
we have every reason to believe
our quota of $4,000 will be made
up in belated returns. Won't you
take a moment and check on the
seals we sent you last November =?
Seal sale returns as of January
8 totaled $3,807.33 or sc per cent
of the quota, Mrs. Claus reported.

thought.
