WORK

Work appears to have no friend, Yet it gives us all we spend: Warmth against the winters cold: Luse and comforts when we're old; Aini-he various wanted things. Motor cars and diamond rings; Pinter.» to grace a loved ones bier; Freedom from bot-ii want and fear; Food and rainmenl; books to read: Vine and tree and garden seed: Pride and honor; childhood‘: toys; Schools to tea-sh our girls and boys; and it puzzles me to know Why so many hate it so. —Edsar A.

To remove chewing gum, use tither ice or egg white. If t-he gum is on fabric that will not water spot, rub it with icc. This burdens the gum enough so that it can bc rraped or rubbed free. This is an mspecially good method for rugs and other heavy materials.

It is also possible to soften the gum with egg white and then wash off both together with cool soapy water.

STEAM AND OIL HELPS THE SKIN Bcsi. time to give yourself a lame-facial aimed at: erasing years frcm your looks is while you're in the tub. Steam from a hot bath reips a cleansing cream to do I octtcr job, makes skin more re- i-cptivc to a lubricating cream. Make a cleansing cream and a. lubricant your chief allies in fight- iiig off dryness, the robber tmt steals the bloom from skin. Cold weather makes your fight harder. If you wvanlt a lubricating cv-‘euni tiint literally defies cold weather --impnrts moisture and keeps it on a skin, under powder and all, until you [ash it off - try one of the many good creams.

Careful use 0f n good sink strainer will go a long way to-

wards avoiding clogged drains. Re- moving grease from dishes and utensils before washing is a fur- ther precaution since clogging is

usually caused from hardened grease. advises Consumer Infor- mation Service. :

Oicasional use of a plunger, and plenty of hot water poured down the drain at the first indication of stoppage will usually clear out the trap, but if this fails a com- mercial cleaner or a strong solu- lion oi washing soda followed b1.‘ lrenty of boiling water should do the trick.

For complete stoppage or for the removal of such obstructions as cctli or lint it may be necessary tc open the trap under the sink. l." the trap has a clean-out nole tlic cap can be screwed off, and obstructions removed with a small wire or stick. Some traps have two screws so that the trap can lc removed for cleaning.

Ellen ’s Diary

By an hilnd Farmer’: Wile g

We attended the church chicken supper this evening, in fact we have just returned from there At the community hall, it was held, which lies a short distance beyond the schod on the road which follows the river. It was u successful affair financially. and I would say in other iivays as well. While the returns in money is al- uuys of extreme importance at such an event. there are other ele- merits to be considered also. There is the social aspect and one has orly to see old friends meet to know that neither the food nor the " "<‘i return are the most im-portant ts to an affair of this kind. The general air of friendliness and goodwill, the warm hand-clasp and SlYllE or word of greeting. all of these udd up to make one rent‘: ' Veil that was a nice time. wiasnt it?" in the months to come.
