King’s Grocery and Market “Where Your Money Buys More” At the Mile Bridge Phone 91 Riverview Mag Carries Local Interest Story The following article is one that will appear in the next issue of ‘‘Dutch Boy Painters,” a mag azine published by the makers of that paint product: “While we haven’t seen the “gainful occupation” figures from the 1940 census, we feel pretty sure that they would show no great increase over the previous censustaking in the number of women house painters. Since the war began, however, we have occasionally heard of the inva sion of this once 99.9 per cent masculine craft by the fair sex. As, for example, the instance re corded here. “This will introduce Mrs. Ethel Buffmire of Vernonia, Oregon, who, a little over a year ago, de cided to do something about the painter-manpower shortage in her community. And Mrs. Buffmire has kept right at it. SI e started out rather modestly with an inter, ior job which entailed calsomining several rooms, painting kitchen and bathroom walls and enamel ing the woodwork. “After another inside job, a theatre lobby, had been properly disposed of, Mrs. Buffmire turned her attention and newly- acquired talents to exterior work, the first of which was a two-car garage. The results here were so favorable that another exterior job was promptly lined up, a three-room cottage, and done in white and black trim. Then came a larger dwelling, this one white with navy blue trim. “All told to date, Mrs. Buff mire writes, she has done 17 interior and three exterior jobs. Because the local manpower shortage continues acute, Mrs. Buffmire intends to keep on spreading paint and the gospel thereof. On her schedule for early attention, Mrs. Buffmire has several more outside joBs 'and some work for a logging concern. Some of our sterner sex painter friends may not agree with Mrs. Buffmire’s con tention that women make better painters than men because they take more interest in the way a job turns out, but we have no wish to argue the point—not when the lady has a loaded paint brush in her hand.” Soldier Returns To Camp Ellis NATAL — Staff Sgt.
