be obtained by applying a
heavy coat Of Shellac.
ALI bare spots from which
paint has been scraped should
be given one coat Of paint be-
fore the rest Of the surface is
painted. Allow this to dry for
at least "a hours. Now, if you
have any energy left, you are
ready to start painting. For
this part Of the job, we offer
only one bit Of advice.
Do not permit yourself to be
tempted by price when you

below 40 degrees, but the fall
season is the best. It is then
that you need the boost to
your morale that a freshly
painted house gives you after
the losing battle that you
waged with crab grass and
chinch bugs all summer.
Applying paint to the exter-
ior of a house is easy. The
part that separates the pros
from the buffers is the pre-
paration Of the surface before
the paint is applied. The i'm
portance Of this cannot be
Over-emphaSized.
If you apply fresh paint
over paint that is on the verge
of falling off, this loose paint
will soon break off, taking the
new paint with it. When you
neglect to fill cracks in wood
SO that water cannot enter,
you will eventually have wood
to replace. It is the extra time
and attention that the
homeowner can devote to a
paint job that often makes his
work superior to that done by
the professional painter who
has obtained the job by COM
petitive bidding.
A wire brush, a paint Scra-
per and coarse sandpaper are
as important to a paint job as
the paint. The wire brush will
remove loose paint. The scra-
per will take off patches that
are bit more firmly at
tached and the sandpaper will
feather the edges Of paint
around bare spots so that the
patches do not appear as ridg-
es. Go over the entire surface
with the sandpaper to remove
weathered paint, even though
the paint may be firmly at
tached. Wipe clean with a dry
cloth.
Examine the caulking
around doors and windows.
Much Of this will be cracked
and should be removed and
replaced. Use the paint scrap
per or a putty knife to cut this
loose.
ALI cracks in wood must be
filled with putty. If you intend
to apply two coats of paint,
putty these cracks after the
first coat is dry. Notice par
ticularly the lower edge of
trim around W i'm dows and
doors and fill every crack
through which water might
enter.
The resin in knots and sap
streak ks frequently bleed
through paint and causes
paint in these areas to discol-
or and peel. A product sold
under various trade names,
but known gen er ally as
WP57S, is intended to be ap-
piled over knots to prevent

The Cumberland County

remembered for the many vases

This bank was sponsored by
the Bank Of PoWhatan. and its
president was an old Cumber-
land County boy, W. R. Parker.
Marion E. Blaliton served as
vice president, Max B. Harlan
as cashier, and Margaret Ingle
as asst, cashier and bookkeeper.
In addition to Mr.. Parker and
Mr.. Blanton. other directors
were r. H. Blanton. E F. Yates
and B. c. Heath. Mr.. F. w. Put

later, and gave valuable assist

The original slogan of the bank
was" A Friendly Bank in a.

there may be banks elsewhere
that are larger and make more
money, it would be hard to find
one that enjoys better rela-
tionship with the community.

Captain Roy ?. Gee, USM, Com manding Officer of the Naval Sta tion, Kodiak, announced today a new plan to reorganize the Station security system.
 'The new security system will go into operation on May 18, Armed Forces Day." Captain Gee said.
 Primary point of the new system is to discontinue use of the three gates currently in use-the two on Tom Stiles Road and the Anton Larson Bay Road-and place new main gate adjacent to Building C-6, currently the Civilian Cafeteria on Sixth Street.
 An additional gate will be placed at the intersection of Eighth Street and Avenue c to allow personnel with station decals to go to and from their housing areas without having to pass through the new Main Gate.
 AS an additional aid to visitors, the Security Office will be re- located in the Civilian Cafeteria in order to expedite issuance of passes
 This will not mean, that any one can come on the Naval Reservation at his or her convenience without authorization" Captain Gee added. ''The new Sportsman's Pass will still be needed to hunt or fish on board the station. Restricted areas will be posted with appropriate signs such as Restricted Area, Off Limits except for tenants, guests and official business and author ized personnel only, violators sub- ject to prosecution signs. Visitors are reminded to use the Main Gate to enter the Naval Station proper but may exit through either gate

Two Tots Die I'm Ouzinkie Blaze

Two infant daughters of MT. and Mrs. Emil Anderson of Ouzinkie perished when their home was razed by fire last Sunday.
 Dead are June Allen Anderson, 3, and her sister,, Carla Mae, 3. Three other children who were outdoors playing were unhurt.
 The fire apparently was caused by a faulty oil range. Mrs. Anderson was baking and left the house to get water from distant well. While she was absent the house burst into flames. The blaze was discovered by a neighbor, Betty Gugel, but by then the fire was so intense the children could not be rescued.

 Roads; Makes Pass Issuance Convenient

Captain Gee also mentioned that special sign would be placed at the Reservation boundaries to read: "Attention - areas on both sides of Tom Stiles Road and An ton Larson Bay road on the Naval Reservation, with the exception of the parking area adjacent to the PIMA terminal, are restricted to all unauthorized traffic. Do not enter these areas without an approved pass. All persons must obtain re- quired passes at the Main Gate"
