i? SUMMER BOARD

Sin-Last Autumn I rcnlt-lnbol‘ reading lll thc Public Forum that the proper time to get rcndy for next summer's guests ls the day they leave our shores. This suggestion would sol. one thinking. as we often put off for another day what ‘we should attend to at once. |‘ When we consider what ayboon. the snmlner people are it stimul- ates us to be up and doing. I kilow a lady who watches the sales, and when the guest season colncs she has everything ready for her roollls instead of leaving lt tlll the last moment. One can lnakc an old house look very attractive with {refill pllpcr, paint. and tintillg—thc latter so quickly applied. If tilt‘ colour scheme is carried out in each room it is very effective. If your rooms have no closets. put a shell in one corner with straps for hooks and, a pretty chintz for covering. Tilis will be very convenient fol‘ hanging clothes. A pocket made out of the same .matcriai and tacked on the door is very useful for shoes. The way the Tourist Association has worked for town and country. and tho increase in the number of lourlslscach year .looks as though more farm homes will entertain this summer. Some people think it a hard task

As a rule onc meets very nice peo- ple; very often you arc entertain- ing guests whom you never expect- ed to see.

GENERAL: The population and wealth in Canadian cities is increasin the public from which first-run theatres ‘draw their audiences. Motiori picture theatre operation is a cash business with practically no inventories and nocredit accounts. The principal capital employed is invested in centrally situated city real estate and properties, which are showing a tendency steadily to increase in value.
