PAOT 3-PLAINDEALER-WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 1972 Return Scout Goodwill Bag* To Organtxatlon Following a Boy Scout Good v Turn Day, many inquiries are 4$ceived by Scoutera and Goodwill representatives as to tbe disposal of the Scout bags, it was announced today by A1 Soldwish, Community Relations Director for Goodwill Industries. First of all, the empty bagi should be returned to the Scouts or Goodwill. It is unlawful to use them for anything but materials to be used and worked on by the handicapped clients of Goodwill Industries. The bags do involve a great cash outlay and if misused, it is robbing the disabled. The Boy Scouts of America have been working with Goodwill Industries for the past forty-five years and the in­ tention of the Scouts and Scouters is to provide rehabilitation. Goodwill In­ dustries is the only agency serving the disabled, who want to help themselves, in a program of refurbishment, not a glorified rummage sale. If anyone has a filled Scout bag, they should call their Local Goodwill representative and make arrangements for a pickup service. In this area, call Mrs. Nick Adams.

Nov. 29.1972) How Can I? HSCnBBnBBPEnBBhfljS By Anne Ashley Q. How can I make a better job of mixing my own cement? A. By mixing the dry ingredients first - portland cement, sand, gravel, - in the correct proportions. Then, when thoroughly mixed, add your water. Q. How can I clean gold or silver borders on dinner plates? A. Try scrubbing these with a dry toothbrush dipped in baking soda. Or, dip a moist toothbrush into powdered alum and scrub with this. Let the alum stay on for a couple of hours before washing the plates. Q. How can I "antique" an old gilt wood frame? A. Buy a small tube of burnt umber at any artist's supply store. Daub a small amount on a piece of clean cloth and rub into the gilt frame until you get the mellow shade you are looking for. Q. How can I sharpen a pair of scissors? A. One easy method is by cutting up and down on the rim of an ordinary glass. Even if you have a nick in your scissors from cutting into pins, this will usually smooth out the rough edges. It also works for pinking shears. Q. How can I clean a discolored wooden bread­ board? A. Dip a slice of lemon into a dash of salt, and rub the board well with the cut side of the lemon. Then rinse with clear water and let dry in the air. It will whiten itself as it dries. Q. How can I bind the cut edges of carpets and prevent their fraying? A. With rubber cement. First trim the nap from about one- eighth inch of the edge of the carpet, then coat the trimmed edge and the underside for one- half inch or so with ordinary rubber cement - at least two applications. Q. How can I clean the holes in the bottom of my steam iron? A. By using a pipe cleaner dipped in a solution of detergent and water. Q. What is a good method for frosting a window? A. Soften some putty with a few drops of linseed oil, and dab this over the outside of the windowpane. This -will dry into a nice frosting in a day or so, whereupon another coat may be applied. This frosting is more or less permanent and weatherproof, and can safely be washed. However, you can "defrost" it at any time you wish with some concentrated ammonia. Q. What is an easy method of removing animal hairs from dark clothing? A. You can easily remove these hairs from dark suits, coats and dresses by wrapping a length of masking tape around your hands and brushing over the entire gar­ ment. The animal hair and lint will stick to the tape. This method is also good for cleaning the upholstery in your car after your pet has had a ride. Q. How can I camouflage or hide nicks and nailholes in light-colored wallpaper? A. With a little dry corn­ starch. Just press a bit of this \ into the holes, then rub over it lightly with your fingertips to smooth it out. Q. How can I mend a broken lipstick? A. Just heat the broken ends over a match, gas, or cigarette lighter flame until they melt enough to adhere when you press them together. Q. How can I treat heatmarks on furniture? A. These can usually be obscured with camphorated oil. The best method is to stroke the affected area lightly with a cloth moistened with the oil, then rub immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Do not use a linty cloth, as fuzz might stick to the wood. The final step is to re-wax. Q. What is an easy way to fill in nailholes in a plastered wall? A By mixing up a little talcum powder or cornstarch with a few drops of water, forcing this into the holes, then smoothing off with your fingertips. Q. How can I renovate a worn or misshapen paintbrush? A. You can often work wonders just by trimming it back into shape. By holding a razor blade against a small pocket comb, and gently pushing the comb through the bristles of the brush, you can remove stray hairs and per­ form a very neat job of trim­ ming and reshaping. Q. How can I remove shine from woolen clothes? A. Sponge the garments with a solution of one teaspoon of ammonia to a quart of water. Press on the wrong side. Q. Have you any suggestions for a substitute shoe polish for either black or brown shoes? A. Try simply sprinkling lemon juice over the shoes, then polishing vigorously. Works real well. Q. How can I mend broken chinaware and glassware? A. By dipping the broken edges into soft, melted, powdered alum, then holding the pieces together with adhesive tape until the cement has hardened. Q. How can I render fat? A. Cut it into small pieces, or run through your food chopper. Then melt it in the upper part of your double boiler, and follow by straining < through cheesecloth laid in a wire strainer. Q. How can I remove spilled fingernail polish from rugs or clothing? A. Use amyl acetate (banana oil), available in drugstores. Q. How can I keep boiled potatoes from breaking? A. When potatoes are boiled too rapidly, they become soft and broken on the outside, while their centers remain hard and uncooked. Q. How can I make a good job of cleaninjg my piano keys? A. With a soft cloth dipped in alcohol, or with a paste made by combining fine whiting with lemon juice. Wipe the keys clean with a damp cloth after each application. Q. What can 1 do about grease spots that have been allowed to become well set in washable fabrics? A. You can try "fighting fire with fire." Rub some fresh grease into the spots, then wash immediately. Q. How can I remove crayon marks from a parchment-type lampshade? A. By rubbing a ball of soft bread over the crayon marks. bout com* ? I NEVER MIND %NOW COME', WHATS YbuR NAME ? " STRETCH 3Your Xmas y Dollars USE OUR Breakfast Is Essential Even During Holidays Corn flakes or whole wheat flakes and leftover turkey are the primary Ingredients for a holiday breakfast that will make a hit with all family members. Breakfast is Just as important during the busy hol­ iday season as it is any other time of the year. But with the many extra activities, some people may ipglect this meal. One way to entice the non- breakfast eaters to the table in the morning is to plan break­ fast as carefully as any other meal. Breakfast does not have to be elaborate or take a long time to fix. The wide variety of breakfast cereals available offer convenience as well as nutrition. Keep various kinds of juices and fruits on hand to add interest to breakfast. For a unique breakfast treat combine corn flakes or whole wheat flakes with leftover tur­ key to make Turkey Cereal Cakes. This is an excellent combination of foods. Many cereals are fortified with eight essential vitamins and also supply carbohydrates for en­ ergy. The turkey provides pro­ tein. Prepare the turkey mixture the night before, cover and store overnight in the refrlger ator.
