PLAINDEA LER PHOTOS CLEAN-UP PROGRESS -- Hard at work preparing to erect a high snow fence on the Charles "Chuck" Miller property, west of the city on Sherman hill, are members of the State Highway department. A heavy layer of gravel to the right in­ dicates the previous work done by Mr. Miller to cover the huge amount of debris which had been dumped on the property. The bottom photo was taken the previous week, showing abandoned cars which had been driven just feet from the highway "no parking" sign, causing a traffic hazard. The state promises a twenty-four hour patrol of the area. PG. 4 - PLAINDEALER- FRI. AUGUST 8, 1969 Fcfifi-CJoodLQlMLO. U.S. Savings ©!

First let it dry partially, then press out the creases in the crown oi the hat. Next turn down the band and place the hat in a cool place away from any heat, and let dry thoroughly. Finally reshape the crown and brush the hat gently. If your work is done carefully, your hat should then look almost as good as new. Q. How can I make an ef­ fective bathroom "deodor­ izer"? A. A bottle of lemon juice, left uncorked in the bathroom, does real well. Q. What causes a cake to rise only in the center, and not around the edges? A. Usually a too-hot oven. Q. How can I increase one pound of butter to two pounds? A. Measure out one pint of butter, then add gradually one pint of milk and a small quan­ tity of salt, beating it with the egg-whip until smooth. Place in a mold, and set in a cool place. Q. What is the easiest and most practical way to apply liquid wax? * A. With a sponge that has been dipped in water and wrung dry of all excess moisture. This will do a much better job and use up less wax than a dry one would. Q. How can I prevent my 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 remove fish- slime stains from fabrics? A. Soak or sponge with a sol­ ution of %-cup of salt and one cup of vinegar to two quarts of water. Rinse with clear wa­ ter, then wash with warm wa­ ter and soap. An entire section of my new household-hints book deals with stains of all kinds. Q. How can I make varnish dry faster? A. Fill a shallow vessel with hot water and place the con­ tainer of varnish in this while working. It will make the var­ nish flow easier, and it will also dry in a shorter time. Q. How can I clean a white felt hat? A. Coat the hat with a mix­ ture of equal parts of corn- meal, salt, and flour, and let remain overnight. Next morn­ ing, brush off thoroughly.

CARE OF FRVIT Because temperature is an important factor in ripening, don't put unripe fault in the refrigerator. Slightly under­ ripe fruits that are fresh and sound will ripen in open air at room temperature. Do not place them in the sun. THAT ISN'T RIGHT. . . It might take a second glance to realize that the spelling in this sign is wrong. The "typographical" error is on a sign on the westbound side of U.S. 80. n e a r S a v a n n a h .

It would be hard for a motorist who disobeyed the sign's order to convince a patrolman that he didn't get the message.

For most people stampede like sheep regarding medical ailments and fail to use their "horse sense." Half of the hospital patients should be back home in their own beds! And most of our drugs are just "window trimming*' to justify our medical fees! By - George W. Crane, Ph. D., M.D. , Case K-550: Arnold D„ aged 22, is studying to be a phar­ macist. "Dr. Crane," he began, "why are there so many drugs on the market? "Recently I counted over 1,000 different named drugs that are offered by the pharmaceu­ tical companies and I didn't even complete the entire list by any means! "There aren't that many dis­ eases, are there? "So can you please explain this discrepancy?" DRUG PSYCHOLOGY Dozens of splendid pharma­ ceutical firms put out essen­ tially the same type of tran­ quilizer, but "coin" their own trade name for it. Thus, we have many tran­ quilizers on the market, all for treating the same ailment. Alas, it is an axiom of med­ icine that when there are many different remedies for any giv­ en disease, none of them is a cure! Fbr when we have a sure­ fire cure, there is wily one drug! Same goes for preventing ail- Q. How can I care properly for slate tile floors? A. This type of floor should be dusted with an untreated mop and brushed with a soft brush or vacuum cleaner at­ tachment. Wash with a mop and mild suds, rinsing and wip­ ing dry.

Aspirin is the most widely used drug in the world as a sim­ ple pain killer. But your television shows will exclaim over the various merits of their special brand of aspirin and try to discredit that of their rivals.
