But buy a place today, and, if it is modern, the floors will be var- ied with all sorts of interesting new compositions to add interest lly so in kitchen, to the decor. This is especia bathroom and' playroom where they are likely to be of tile in rubber, asphalt, ceramic or clay. Cork floors are frequently seen, as is vinyl-plastic flooring. NEW SET OF RULES | As for rubber tile and - asphalt tile, it is best to use a self-polish- ing wax applied as for lineoleum. Clean the floor first by apply- ing suds and water sparingly, or us: one of the special asphalt tile cleaners now on the market. If |you are fortunate enough to own | an electric polisher, you'll find it | just as effective on these floors as on wood. Give the floor a buffing | between waxings to brighten it and remove scuff marks. | Ceramic tile floors are mostly AH this adds up to a new set glazed, and present few problems, of rules for taking care of modern | Since they are rough and, resist flooring. | almost any kind of wear and tear. Vinl-plastic flooring, for in-|Tracked-in dirt comes away with a stince, comes in many varieties | Simple washing using soap, deter- and is sold both by the yard and |gent or cleaner, and a thorough in tile form. The colors are rich, and this type of flooring can be nicely maintained. Unlike linoleum the lovely clear colors require no wax protection to keep them wing. But a waxing now and then will keep the floor sparkling bright. Wash as you would lino- leu, then use either a self-polish- ing wax or a floor cleaner con- taining wax. And use a little cleanser to take up stubborn heel marks and ingrained dirt before applying wax drying. Liquids can be mopped up with paper towels. Old stains and accumulated dirt usually come off steel wool. Cork tile floors should be cleaned with a vacuum cleaner and buffed with a polisher _uite frequently. If waxing is desired, then use a self-polishing * type. Wash cork floors only when necessary, and avoid harsh scrubbing. If neces- -sary, use a small amount of de- Colored 'Household Linens Sell Well But the Emphasis is on Snowy White By ELEANOR ROSS Yes, they told us in the stores, colored household linens are sell ing well, but the emphasis is still on snowy white. Nothing really looks as cool, as refreshing, as clean, as does white, and it fits into any decorative scheme. Again, white linens wash per- fectly, without any sp: :ial care. They 'splash into the hottest water, to emer e looking ' :e new, especially if the water is nicely | softened. Heavy-duty synthetic de- tergents that are non-scum form- ing, or soap plus a water condi- tioner, take care of that phase. K: ING THEM WHITE Plenty of rinsing is essential and bluing will keep that snowy whiteness, as will starch, which makes for a smoother surface, too. Stains come out of white linens easily, for there's no color to fade. Food stains are soon re- moved from tablecloths, place mats and napkins, if they haven't been left to "set" too long. Some fruit stains and chocolate stains do require bleaching. Add bleach as the washer's instruction book indicates, and let the mach- ine go through its regular cycle. If any bleach odor remains after a thorough rinsing, more. _ Grease stains should be soaked in very, very hot suds, then rinsed. If the stains are old, a sponging with cleaning fluid before soaking may do the trick. :- FOR LIPSTICK STAINS Lipstick stains do need plenty of { attention, especially those made | by long-s'aying colors. The ordin- | | ary ones do sometimes fade out in! ordinary washing, but the other | type of lipstick stain does better |with a preliminary soaking in cleaning fluid. Then wash in warm suds, and rinse well. There are on [the market, some special cleaners | developed especially for lipstick {and similar cosmetic stains, When it comes to ironing, rinse once ou'll find that white linens demand less than colored ones. Fitted sheets are said to need only minimum | ironing, perhaps just a brief touch- {up. Some homemakers say that {the fitted sheets go from dryer {te bed ith nary a touch of an {iron, stretching out smoothly be- |cause of the anchored fit. | As fo- terry towels and wash- icloths, out they come from the |dryer all 'nice and fluddy, ready Stewed Tomatoes and Rice -- A Satistying Vegetable Dish "our family will love this way » use their favorite -- thgrtom- ato! Stewed Tomatoes and Rice is the perfect answer to the"what vegetable to fix" problem and here is one vegetable dish your family will vote their favorite. The tender grains of rice take on a wonderful tomato flavor as they simmer with the seasonings and the tomatoes. The sprinkling of parsley adds au exciting dash of olor contrast as well as simply - delightful flavor, INGREDIENTS Ya cip butter or margarine 1 medium onion, thinly sliced 3 cups cooked . rice 2% cups tomatoes, cut pieces 1 teaspoon salt Ya teaspoon pepper 2 tablespoons sugar 1 cup water 2. tablespoons chopped parsley Preparing the fluffy white rice: To make 3 heaping cui ; of white, fluffy, perfectly cocked rice 4, Put 1 cup uncooked rice, ¥ cups of cold water and 1 teaspoon in small [for duty again. of salt into a 2-quart saucepan and bring to a vigorous boil, 2.

They all spent some time in London where Mrs. Weeks' brother, last year's Mayor of the Borough of Stoke Newington, planned many excursions for them. The Crown Jewels in the Tower, Tower Bridge opened up Madame Tussaud's waxworks, the Ntural History and Science Museums, Kew Gardens, Hampton Court Palace and the Maze, and the Changing of the Changing of the Guard at St. Jam- ess were some of the sights they enjoyed most, but there were other less usual events, like the day they spent in the Kentish hop- fields with the pickers, or being guests at the opening meeting of the borough council at which the mayor and aldermen wore their wigs and robes of office and were preceded by the mace-bearer in full regalia. All this was fascinating to the girls, and their pleasure was more then doubled in their grandmother who proudly escorted them. Mrs. Weeks visited Sittingbourne and Gillingham in Kent, her late husband's home, and said that the 'garden of England" never looked lovelier. She also took a trip to Blyth, near Newcastle, to meet for the first time Mrs. Ruth Wilkinson with whom she has been corres- ponding for over ten years. The correspondenc. started dur- the war. Mrs. Weeks as & member of the Canadian Legion Auxiliary made knitted garments which were sent for the comfort ofthe men serving in the mine- s ers in the North Sea. A pair of man's socks that she knitted were received by Mrs. Wilkin- son for her father, who asked his daughter to write to Mrs. Weeks thanking her for the gift. Since then they have corresponded regularly. Mrs. Weeks was deeply impress- ed with the spirit of the people she met. She found them warm- hearted, generous and optimistie, taking life at a more leisure- ly pace. One thing she noticed par- ticularly, the fewness of street accidents, despite the narrow roads and the amount of traffic. GROUPS, CLUBS AUXILIARIES NORTHMINSTER WA Group IIT of Northminster WA met at the home of Mrs. Reginald Robinson, Woodcrest Street, on Tuesday. The devotional riod was conducted by Mrs. Robinson and the secretary and treasurer gave encouraging reports.

Photo by Hornsby Studio Mr. Murray Clarke a secondary school teacher with the Govern- ment of Ethiopia and who has just returned from Addis Ababa where he has been teaching for th: la t three years was the guest speaker at the Fall Thankoffering meeting of Knox Presbyterian Wom ens Missionary S.:iety last Wed- nesday evening. A gratifying number were pres- ent and were well rewarded by a mest instructive ans interesting evening of colored slides of Ethio- pia customs and views of its mountainous country as well as its cities and hamlets.' Mr. Clarke's | running commentary throughout in- Icluded many of his own experiences The present ruler Haeli Selassie is a fine Christian gentleman who |lives for the welfare of his people in all respects said Mr. Clarke. In 1936 the general Italian in- vasion of Ethiopia marked the be- ginning of a six year reign of ter- ror under which missionaries had to leave the country, leaving only about fifty native converts to carry on the work. The Empero: Selas- sie also had to take 'refuge in England where he remained an exile until his country wag liberat- ed about six years ter. At the Listeners Inspired by Talk On Christian Work in Ethiopia end of that time he returned in triumph. The first act of Emperor Selassie was to open his country again to the work of missions. Mr. Clarke closed his remarks with reading an account of the soul stirring experience of the return- ing missionaries to find that the fatihful fifty Christians had been the means used by God for a great spiritual revival -- 200 churches and some 25,000 Christians was the amazing harvest. The work is still going on. The Holy Spirit has trans- formed thousands of lives and people will come for miles around to attend the Bible classes and will give so sacrificially even to their clothing that others may hear the gospel. Mr. Clarke has seen God's spirit working and has returned to Can- ada to enter a two year course at. Toronto Bible College that he may go forth as a, missionary of Jesus Christ, The President Mrs. James Cor- mack presided at the meeting. Mrs. J. A. Swindells read the scripture followed by prayer by Mrs, C. J. McLennan. A Thanksgiving solo by Mrs. Robert Mills was much ap- preciated. A social half hour followed the meeting.
