Thank you. ' -- X P. DEAR T. P.: The big factors in any dating situation these days are that school and your studies must take priority over any boy, sad as those words sound. I think a girl of 17 should be allowed at least one and possibly two dates a week but not on school nights. Friday and Saturday nights are good date nights. Your time coming in should be the time your parents tell you to check in the house. The five otber nights should be devoted to your parents, your girl friends, your school work and keeping your wardrobe and your room in order. Okay? • * * m DEAR DAN: If a boy asks a girl for a movie date and gets turned down two'weeks in succession, should he ask her .again or should he accept the fact she doesn't want to date him? I've asked this same girl twice now and each time she ;said she already had a date for that night. I know she isn't going steady so maybe it's just me. What do you think T 'should do? - Not Sure. DEAR NOT SURE: If I were you, I'd ask her once more. This time, however, ask for a date alt least a week in advance. If she says she's again already dated up and doesn't seem to give any encouragement for asking again, take that as Jier final decision and dont waste your time with her. # • * * DEAR DAN: I'm a girl of 18 and have a brother two 'years younger w(ho knows more about my personal life than fhe should. I've done a couple of things I'm ashamed of and my brother somehow found out about them, from the boy I .dated, I guess, and keeps hanging the threat of telling Mom ;Over my head unless I'm nice to him. His way of my being :"nice" is to give him spending money whenever he needs it. I make my spending money by baby-sitting and unless •you can give me a solution to myv problem, will have to keep ••being "nice" to my brother. Please help. -- Worried. * ; DEAR WORRIED: I don't know what your brother ^has" on yon but I'm sure it isn't that bad that you have to ftow down to him. My advice is to tell your mother and hope "She'll understand. Maybe yon should be ashamed of yourself for whatever you did but so should your brother. URGE USE OF PROPOSED MILK PRICING FORMULA Pure Milk ass6ciation, whose nearly 1|,000 members supply most of the milk shipped to Chicago, was instructed this past week by its delegate body to urge the use of its proposed economic-type pricing formula for Class I (bottled) milk as a basis for negotiating superpool increases for producers over the government's announced minimum prices for the Chicago Order 41 market. The delegates requested the association to take up their recommendation as soon as possible with Federated Dairy J Cooperatives for that organi- ! zation to use in negotiating the • 1961 superpool prices on Class 11 milk with Chicago milk dealj ers. They also went on record in favor of authorizing FDC to withhold milk from the market if such action becomes necessary. . FDC. organized thr o u g h PMA's initiative last year to negotiate superpool prices on behalf of the association and twenty-two other dairy farmer cooperatives, • serves as the bargaining agency for all dairy farmers shipping milk to Chicago and adjoining areas. PMA's proposed pricing formula for Class I milk sold under Order 41 includes the wholesale commodity index, one of the best measures of the general price level; an index of consumer purchasing power; and a feed-farm labor index, an important measure of milk production costs. Use of this formula in negotiating superpool prices with dealers was recommended by the delegates "because the income of dairy farmers has dwindled to a point of insecurity due to increases in costs relative to higher property taxes, farm equipment, maintenance of buildings, farm labor and transporting milk." 7* October 20, I960 How Can I ?

There are a number of porcelain glazes on the market for this purpose. The area to he fixed must be free of grease and dirt, and completely dry. Apply a thin coat of the glaze, wait 30 minutes, then apply another thin coat. Keep applying these thin coats until the damage area is built up so that it is level with the surrounding surface. The trick is not to try to fill the chipped area with one single thick coat* Have denatured alcohol on hand for use in wiping off any surplus glaze. Q. What can I do about rust stains, on, the fixtures in my kitchen sink? A. Scour them with a paste made of equal parts of hydrogen peroxide and cream of tartar. Let this remain on about 15 mtnutes, then rinse off. Q. How can I remove water from an ear? A. Tip the head down toward the ground or floor on the affected-ear side, and jump up and down on the foot of the same side. Q. How can I prevent a screw-jar cap from sticking? A. Put two scraps of waxed paper over the mouth of the jar before you screw on the cap. Then, while one piece of paper will stick to the par, and the other will stick tp the cap, the waxed papers will still slide against each other for easy removal of the cap. Q. How can I remove paint spots from shoes? A. The quickest way to do this is to use a kitchen match. Dip it into cold water, and apply to the paint. Q. How can^ I discourage moths and silverfish in my rugs? A. These pests have a hearty dislike for printer's ink, and you can capitalize on this by spreading layers of newspapers under your rugs.' Put the papers between the rug and the pad, if you have one -- if not, use a heavy layer of newspapers and it will serve as a cushion, too. Q'. How can I prevent screws from working loose in plastered walls? A. Make a tiny opening in the plaster where you wish to drive your screw, then fill this with plastic wood. Drive your screw in while the wood is still soft. . Q. How qan I remove daubs and splashes of paint on son^ of jny window glass? .n. A. Easy! Just rub gently over these spots with some flijye steel wool. ^ Q. How can I remoye grease from silk? A. Take a lump of magnesia, rub it well on the spot, let dry, and brush off.

MYF News On Sunday, Oct. 16, the M.Y.Flers went on their an-; nual .Christian Wjjtness \jiissiqn, the purpose of which is to""get inactive » members to come more often to meetings. Fourteen members left the church at 1 o'clock to call. After they returned they danced and were given supper by Mrs. Ambrose. At 7 o'clock that same evening, they had an- M.Y.F. meeting. The regular members joined hands with the inactive members in a welcome back to the club. There was a movie called "Rebek'iwith a Cause", which was thought provoking as well as very interesting. There was much discussion after the movie and one of the t hings that was brought up was the youth center. Members felt that they could be "rebels with a cause" if they supported such a project and tried to put it through. One of the most important parts of the meeting was the announcement that the M.Y.F. and I.Y.F. would be calling for UNICEF on the Sunday of the twenty-third. This is a very important part of the I.Y.F. and M.Y.F. They hope people will be home and contribute to this fund. The members of both I.Y.F. and M.Y.F. will collect Sunday from 2 o'clock on.

Early in the evening a delicious turkey dinner was served by the Auxiliary to all the members of the carava^ traveling through the northern part of the 5th District. This caravan included the present Department Commander, Dick Depper, of Caseyville, the past department ^Commander, Henry Cole, of Chicago, Commander of the fabulous 5th District', Ray Soden of Bensenville, his Seniorvice Commander, Ray Mann of Highland Park, and many other officers. Following dinner, the International Hypnotist, Thomas G. Derkson, held the audience spellbound with his amazing feats of hypnotism. Immediately after this wonderful performance, the orchestra took its place on the dance floor. (And what a dance floor) it was. All ablaze with Beautiful Femininity and Female Finery. Believe me when I say, even Hollywood would have taken a second look. McHenry has every right to be proud of its own, George Freund and his toe tingling orchestra. Many nice compliments were made by the visitors on the soothing rhythm of his arrangements. Commander, Ray Soden joined the band and sang a few Songs for us. I'm sure many of the guests were surprised to hear what a singing voice he has. Just about every post and auxiliary in the fifth district had representation at this affair. Yes, the V.F.W. Fox River Post 4600 is making itself known, and should soon be recognized as one of the top posts of the 5th District FUTURE PROJECTS WIN ATTENTION OF McHENRY JAYCEES The community development program, the project of the year fop the McHenry Junior Chamber of Commerce, v£s again the main topic of conversation "at the Jaycees dinner meeting, held last Tuesday evening.
