Just have her stand at lop and you sit a few steps lower. KEEP VEGETABLES FRESHER longer!---put paper toweling in bottom of your refrigerator crisper or storage bins. At one time of- another, we've all come face to face with a SCORCHED COLLAR on hubby's white shirt. But don't givfc up, girls, until you've tried the sunlamp treatment. Dampen the scorched area and hold under a sunlamp to "bleach" cdjlar white again. (Repeat as' necessary if it doesn't get white the first time.) It may sound nutty to WORRY AKOIT YOUR LAWN in January, when it's so cold and it looks so frozen. But any tracks.yoif make will show up this summer like ugly scars. This is due to erosion, caused by alternating freezing and thav^ing, which terribly weakens your lawn (especially if you seeded last autumn). So, first winter rule: Keep off your lawn. Next step: Prevent or lessen erosion, especially on slopes, by scoring lawn all over. Don't ridge or dig it up.. just lightly cross-hatch with a rake about^-Vfe inch deep. This will hold-^iew seeds, stop bare spots from getting worse, hold water and aid germination come Spring. lv It's easy to fix a SEWING MACHINE NEEDLE that's catching on fine fabrics and causing material to rip and tear. Just git a small piece of steel wool and run needle thru it a few times until rough burr is removed. WASH-DAY QUICKIE: No more hunting and sorting for those easy-to-lose small items, such as baby socks. Keep them separate by putting them in an old. nylon stocking. Just tie the top and toss the bundle into your washer. When COOKING NOODLES in salt water, take a little shortening and grease a ring on the inside of pan, just above the waterline -they won't boil over! KNIT-SMART-CUT: If paH tern calls for 2 colors (or more) to lie knitted together, run ends of skeins thru paper straws. v Prevents yarn from tangling and snarling. The holidays have gone, but if that FOOT-STAINED TABLECLOTH remains, let's get it looking like new again' Get rid of cranberry, other fruit, and coffee stains by prctreating with hot water. Pour boiling wateij throu- stained area, holding-kettle about 3 feet above cloth so water hits stain forcefully. Wash with detergent and hot waic-r (soaps, will permanently set color-fast, sprinkle sodium prel)orate on wet stained area. Pour scalding water thru; rinse well and wash again. Sponge meat or gravy stain with lukewarm water; wash in warm soapy water. Pretreating with hot water may sel grcr.se stains in fabric. Many mothers unwittingly cause BABY SKIN IRRITATION*" from washing clothes. Orange juice stains aren't pretty, but don't use bleach to get them out. Bleach and strong soaps are murder on tender skins. It's best to use bleach once a month and then re-wash in clear water to remove chlorine (let machine run full cycle). And never, never use starch. Say Mom, if you have the patience, here's a good way to TRAIN BABY TO FEED HIMSELF. Sit on Baby's side anrl feed him wiih your hand over his, guiding the spoon. Soon he'll start imitating you. For Y U M M I E R ROAST BEEF--mix a d^sh of pepper with melted butter and brush onto meat slices just before serving. Watch for Maggie every week! m 21 A column for teen-agers By Dan Haliigan DEAR TEEN-AGERS: Like the average adult, I probably don't think your music and songs today are anywhere nearly as "good" as they were during my teen years but don't hate me for that. Forgetting who likes what, let me say that I know many of you girls and boys, wherever you live in the United States and Canada, probably have musical ability and talent going to waste. You may be a "name" in your particular community but nowhere else. For that matter, perhaps no one outside of your immediate family knows you have the talent you do. If either is the case, iet's try and give you a little public recognition. Thanks to interest being shown by a growing number of radio stations in various widespread areas of the United States and Canada, your particular talent may be heard outside of your home community if you wish. Here's what to do: Send me your talent on tape. Whether you're a soloist, a duet, trio or combo, whether you sing, play a musical instrument or imitate, send me your talent. Keep your number to no more than three and a half minutes (this is important) and also send along a brief written history of yourself or your group. If plans materialize, your talent will be presented over this growing number ofv stations at some future date as a possible "teen talent time" five-minute program each day. This is not a contest and there will be no prizes but if your selection is used, you will have the satisfaction of knowing your talent was heard by many thousands of listeners over many stations. However, when you send along your tape, be certain you've done your best possible job. Some of you will receive your tapes back without being used -- one reason or another. Those of you whose tapes will be used will be notified and told other details. Who knows? The "right" someone just may be listening the day your tape is played. While we have no connections with the entertainment world and are not in the talent industry, if we-Ja^li^ve your particular talent it outstanding enough', we'll CM-tainly do our best to bring it to the attention of those who ape in show business in one form or another. And since I am sifch a critic of today's teen musical tastes, if you please me, you can please anyone. If your number is acceptable to us, the least that can happen is that your talent will be heard by others. All tapes will be eventually returned and it is impqrtant that you send only tapes, not records. Send your talent to "Under 21" Box ...Kalispell, Mont., and we'll take it from there. Okay? --~--77T * DEAR DAN: Do girls appreciate a boy running his hands through their hair when saying goodnight after a date? I want to try this if it will be okay. -- H. A. J. DEAR H. A. J.: I don't think they would, especially if their parents are still up. They don't want to walk into the house looking like they just finished wrestling, you know. Girls appreciate a guy treating them like ladies. Besides, too many of them wear wigs these days and you could wind up in a very shocked condition. DEAR DAN: We're two senior girls at P.C.H.S, We have a classmate who has turned against his religion and has started smoking and drinking. We've tried to tell him how wrong he is but he just laughs at us. Everybody always looked up to this boy and respected him but we don't anymore. How can we tell him how wrong he is? -- S. and D. " DEAR S. AND D.: There's always a reason why a onetime decent boy makes a turnabout as this boy has done and if you ca,n discover that reason, I'm sure you can help. If this problem is as serious as you say, as friends you should speak to his parents. You might also talk to your principal and if you have one, your counselor. DEAR READERS ^ Eleven-year-old Barry Gray of Route 3, Danville, Pa., recently underwent an operation for the amputation of his right leg above the knee. A bone tumor necessitated the amputation. I don't personally know Barry but I'm sure any get-well cards and notes of cheer you might care to send would be deeply appreciated and would do much to help speed his recovery. Barry has a long haul in front of him and a word from you will be of great helpi Okay? DEAR DAN: What do you think about a friend who tolls her mother she was at my house when all the time the was out with a boy? She wants me to say she was with me if her mother ever asks. Do you think I should? -- Worried. DEAR WORRIED: You should not. The girl lying to her mother is bad enough but you shouldn't let her include you in her deception.

Gann In his new novel, Ernest K. Gann employs all his mastery of suspense, of incident, of narrative excitement -- and his uncanny ability td make us aware of the larger forces that impinge on our individual lives. In "Fate is the Hunter", he snowed us man against the imponderables. "Of Good and Evil" is a novel about violence in society -- the hidden violence that reaches out to touch and terrify the ordinary citizen -- and the forces arraigned against it. The time is now. The action takes place in a single day and night. The foc&L point is the Hall of Justice -- headquarters of a metropolitan police force Tj this nerve center come the myriad impulsesof conflict arid tension, of greeaT of brutality, of fear, that vibrate endlessly through a great city. The anonymous man staging a spectacular suicide, the malevolent underworld baron plotting to squeeze the marrow from the city's bones, the psychopathic girl of 15 who accuses two boys of rape, the pusher, the piitip, the murderer -- each in turn acts out the demonic compulsons that strain the social fabric. Facing them is the law, the had pressed, imperfect hum^n beings who are its enforcers, and the man who is its protector -- the judge, struggling to reconcile justice with Compassion. All these lives are brilliantly interwoven in a novel that is at once a morality, a dark thriller, and a piercing social document. "Of Good and Evil" is Mr. Gann's most ambitious and powerful work -- a drama of the opposing forces, the drive to order and the drive to chaos, continually at war within society and the individual. "MONTENEGRO" by Milovan Djilas Milovan Djilas wrote Montenegro in prison. Following his expulsion from the top rank of the Yugoslav Communist government, Djilas was imprisoned from 1956 until January of 1961. On his release he turned over to his American publisher the manuscripts of three books that he had written at Sremska Mitrovica, the same jail to which he was returned in May of 1962 because of the publication of "Conversations with Stalin", the book he wrote during the tragically short period of fifteen months he was free. Montenegro is the first of Djilas's three "prison books" to be published. This is a remarkable story, being part history and part fiction, a blend of reality and legend that Djials creates in a way that is distinctive and surprising. The story is related in three parts: "The Battle" at Mojkovac in January, 1916, when the outnumbered Montenegrins capitulated to the Austro-Hungarian forces; "The Gallows" that await three Montenegrin prisoners of the Austrians during the occupation of Montenegro; "The, End" of Montenegro's existence \as an independent state, following World War I, when it became part of Yugoslavia. The ballad-like tone of "Montenegro", with its deep and clear awareness that violence both destroys then heightens life, resembles "Land Without Justice", the autobiography of Djilas's early years. His book has the quality of an epic story. "THE TURRET" by Margery Sharp From the same pen that delighted young and old readers with "The Rescuers" and "Miss Bianca" conies a third in a series of adventures starring the appealing white mouse Miss Bianca, with supporting roles played inimitably by Bernard, half-Irish Shaun, and a cast of hundreds. "The Turret" is a suspenseful tale filled with Margery Sharp's charcteristic gaiety, warmth and humor. This time, Miss Bianca is placed in the trying position of having to rescue her mortal enemy from gruesome fate. It is with mixed emotions that the reader watches the wicked Mandrake in his unaccustomed part of wretched captive. The quality of mercy, of which Miss Bianca is an advocate, is truly strained in this situation. But ever-compassionate Miss B. puts her delicate shoulder to the wheel to perform the unpopular task of rescue, and in the process enlists the aid of everyone from obliging Shaun and his Prisoners' Aid Society Boy Scouts to the brave stallion Sir Hector. Uninitiated readers nave a treat in store as they observe Mouse Society at play, at work, and in conspiracy. It is hard to forget the delightful picnic on the lily pads, set to Handel's "Water Music," and dances such as "The Dashing Brown Mouse" and "Mousetown Races". Nearby there was a lonely tower, with a mysterious scrap of white linen fluttering from the window -- thus began this adventure which imperiled the lives of Miss B. and all her cohorts. Margery Sharp is the versatile author of novels, including "The Eye of Love", "The Gipsy in the Parlour", "Cluny Brown", and, most recently, "Martha in Paris". "The Turret" is further proof of her talent -for creating enchantment from light fantasy. Illustrator Garth Williams has again outdone himself picturing the doings of Miss Bianca's gallant crew. IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE Inmates at Vandalia State Farm now have a controlled television system vto entertain them. The system was installed with money from the Inmates' Benefit Fund at no cost to the state, Joseph E. Ragcn, director of the Illinois Department of Public Safety, said. The television system replaces moving picture equipment that has become obsolete. The system consists of two television sets with 23-inch screens in e|ich dormitory and two in each hospital ward, all of which are controlled from a central unit. All programs are selected by a member of the staff and are scheduled each week in advance. All inmates watch the same program. • • „ COURT TEST Gov. Otto Kerner has commended the city of Salem for its decision to test in court a 1951 Illinois statute which would enable cities to issue and sell tax-free municipal revenue bonds for industrial development projects. The Industrial Building Revenue Bond Act has never been used, explained Gov. Kerrier, because its constitutionality has been questioned - but never tested in a court, The Salem City Council is, planning a revenue bond issue of $1,500,0()0 for the purchase of industrial property and construction of buildings and has instructed Frederick E. Merritt, city attorney, to prepare pleadings to test the constitutionality of the law before the Illinois Supreme Court. SHOP IN y@HENRY Have you applied for a Charge Account at GLADSTONE'S, INC.?
