(ADVERTISEMENT^ jbatt &G4f&+ AVOID DAMAGE FROM ALCOHOLIC STAINS X^ospel €%urch News The Christmas services at the fkospel church this year were exceptionally well attended, rich Jjb inspiration and wonderful in fjpirlt.

Thank you, Ihnd may God bless you! |W Next Thursday night, Bee. SI, If "Will be our last service of 1953 t *Siere at the Gospel church. It ie i' the Annual Watch Night service, * Which begins at 9:30 and Cottle tinues up to the midnight hour. % The time will be spent in a pro- 1 ifltakle way and, we believe, |>leaaing to God, in singing andl musie, in brief messages from V. the Word, in testfmoniea and ®!;-.Christian fellowship. There will] be a social hour between 10:301 The morning after the night before - particularly New Tear's Eve - . is hardly the time to be full of rules and cautions. Still, clothes do mean a lot of money, and we all want to reduce unnecessary losses to a minimum. In terms of New Tear's Eve parties, therefore, one stain is always outstanding, frequent, numerous and sizeable . . . the alcoholic stain. Right here let us say this: BRING ALL GARMENTS W H I C H H A V E B E E N STAINED DURING NEW YEAR'S PARTUS IN TO BE CLEANED RIGHT AWAT. In about 99 cases out of 100, these stains will be from alcoholic drinks. Alcohol, being a "semi-dry" liquid, is extremely volatile. In addition, most dyes are soluble to a lesser or greater degree in alcohol. Which simply means that ALCOHOL TENDS TO LOOSEN OR DESTROT DTES. SO THE SOONER YOU BRING THOSE GARMENTS IN. TOE LESS RISK YOU TAKE OF DAMAGING THEM BEYOND REPAIR OR RESTORATION. And on cellulose acetate materials, remember that alcohol tends to dissolve the fibers of the fabric. Nothing can be done about this. Just try to be careful and not spill anything alcoholic otf a rayon or cellulose acetate garment. Whatever your cleaning, yon can be sore it will be done better when you bring it to -- RAINBOW CLEANERS, North Front Street, n round the corner north of National Tea.

Use care when you handle, skin and dissect those rabbits you just brought in from the hunt, and you will probably not have to worry about getting "rabbit fever" (tularemia), says Dr. R. E. Witter of the University of Illinois College of Veterinary Medicine. Each year an average of fifty Illinois hunters, housewives and butchers get this disease. The germs enter the body through cuts, bruises or even the bane skin. Open sores often form at the place where the germs get in. If you feel sick after handling rabbits and have a headache, chills, pains and a high fever, call your doctor at- once. If you ignore these symptoms, you may be one of the twenty tularemia victims who die each year. Symptoms usually appear the first week after Infected imbbits are handled. It may take Anywhere from two weeks to a year to recover completely. Although rabbit fever is most often spread by rabbits, it has been found in many other game animals and birds. It can also be spread by fleas, ticks, lice and deerflies that bite humans after feeding on infested animals. Take these simple precautions and you will help cut down rabbit fever this year: Dont shoot or handle slow, slugglsr rabbits. Wear gloves when you handle, skin and dissect all game. After handling, always wash your hands with plenty of soap and water. Cook all game thoroughly.
