C"larksville, Tenn. He is an industrial arts major. within a short time began the long wait for fourteen eggs to hatch. The -dramatic end of the tale came last Thursday and Friday, much of it taking place in our own office, converted into a pediatrics center for young, abandoned animals and requiring the attention of most of our employees. Officiating over the center with his expert advice was our knowledgeable neighbor, George Thompson. It was on Thursday morning that we arrived at work JEo find Mother Duck nuzzling three offspring w ho seemed content to remain under her protective wing as pnlookers stopped to check on "their family". With some work and very little ingenuity, the 5 o'clock closing hour found a rather insecure cardboard enclosure around the fbur as night fell. The warm sun of Friday morning disclosed all intact at K:30, but fifteen minutes later mother had led her brood, undetected, to the river not far away. As the day wore on it became apparent that Mother Duck was satisfied with a family of three after weeks of warding off stones and other irritations of meddlers. She apparently had decided not to return. With some assistance, four more ducklings entered the big world during the day., and as they did. each ifound a warmhearted employee eager to take it to a good home. After all. the tiny fox had proved himself a fine pet, and how could one of these little ducklings, awaited for so long, do otherwise. One of the weaker specimens required a heating pad and an all-night watch, but even with such attention failed to survive. At last report, the others were adjusting fine to human family life, and will probably continue to do so until they set out upon their own.

(continued from page 1) the Malaysian government. I was one of twenty-two volunteers asked to teach English. "We arrived in Jesselton, the capital of the state of North Borneo, or Sabah as it is known, in December of 1964. We were in for a surprise. "National Geographic magazine had pictured tattooed "wildmen" and bare-breasted women squatting in atap huts. The rigors of Peace Corps training had prepared us for a primitive existence. "But Jesselton, like the other large towns of Sabah, is a modern city of gleaming concrete offices and stores. The towns of Sabah were totally destroyed by allied bombing during World War II when the Japanese held the island. They have since been completely rebuilt. Their largely Chinese populations wear western dress. "This modernity in one of the last outposts of the primitives is initially disappointing to Peace Corps volunteers. So we made a trip into the interior to see how the other twothirds live." Next week's account of Miss Clark's stay in Maylaysia carries a colorful description of living conditions over the greater part of the country.

The accident occurred just before midnight when Grizely told county deputies he was driving north on Rt. 31, approaching the railroad bridge, when a south-bound vehicle crossed into his lane and swerved from side to side. He added that he swerved to the left to avoid the collision, lost control and went through the guard rail. In a second one-car accident that night, Nancy J. Piatt of 3002 N. Oakwood, McHenry, escaped serious injury when her car left the north side of Rt. 120, east of the city, and turned over, landing in a ditch on the north side of the highway. The driver was unable to say just what happened to cause the accident, although she may have fallen asleep. The car was demolished, but she refused medical aid. Carl Sallaz of 4206 N.

Not too much, since this could turn the hats yellow in time. Instead, mix equal parts of cornmeal, salt, and flour, and rub this intothe felt. Let remai^ overnight, then brush out thoroughly. Or, make a paste of plaster of paris and benzene, rub on the hat, and let dry before brushing. Q. How can I soften a stiffened chamois?" A. By giving it a lengthy rinse in two quarts of lukewarm water to which a tablespoon of olive oil has been added. Many other such easy-to-do household tips are included in my new book. Q. How can I keep the cream from curdling in coffee? A. If the sweetness of cream seems uncertain, stir inapinch of baking soda, and this will prevent its curdling in your hot coffee. Q. What is a quick remedy for a loose tile in the hearth of a fireplace? A. Lift out the loose tile, pour in hot paraffin, then quickly replace the tile, and it should remain in place indefinitely. Q. How can I clean zinc? A. Just about the easiest and simplest way is to rub it off with a cloth moistened with kerosene. Q. How can I remove the stains from alcoholic beverages or soft drinks from fabrics? A. These often cause tannin stains, and while almost unnoticeable at first, then turn brown if allowed to stand, or if the fabric is washed and ironed -- and then they're almost impossible to remove. Fresh stains can usually be dealt with by sponging with cold water, or with a mixture of equal parts alcohol and water. After sponging, pour a little glycerin on the stain and rub the fabric lightly between the hands. Allow the glycerin to stand for about 30 minutes, then rinse or sponge with water. Q.

Please suggest a way I can remedy screw holes that have become so worn that the threads will not hold. A. Try packing a small a- ; mount of steel wool tightly into the holes, and this will grip;, your screws tightly. And another method is to insert a wooden kitchen match into the worn screw hole, then drive your screw back into this. Q. How can I improvise white ink for writing on the black pages of my photo album? A. White shoe polish does a good job. Shake the bottle well, dip your pen into it, and oftentimes this writes even more clearly than the real thing itself. Q. After I have oiled an electric fan, how can I prevent it from throwing oil all over the place? A. Slip a large paper bag over the blade guard, then turn on the fan, and the bag will catch any flying oil. Q. Is there anything I can do about sets that persist in falling out of some of my pieces of costume jewelry? A. Reset them with clear fingernail polish. Brush the colorless stuff into the setting, then press in your stone, and allow to dry thoroughly. If any of the "stickum" oozes out around or over the stone, clean up the overflow with a piece of cleaning tissue just barely dampened with nail polish remover. Q. How can I remove crayon marks from enameled surfaces or linoleum? A. Silver polish, applied with a damp cloth, usually works fine. Many such helpful hints are contained in my new household manual. Q. How can I remove banana stains from fabrics? * A. Cover the spots with a liberal paste of fuller's earth and water, and, after this has dried, brush it off. Q. How can I keep the bottom of my iron smooth? A. Make a habit of requently rubbing the iron over a cloth that has been sprinkled with scouring powder. A wad of steel wool may be used to remove accumulated coatings.
