Rinse the sprayer thoroughly with water. Prepare a one per cent solutidh of household ammonia, using two teaspoons of ammonia to each quart of water.

Christmas decorations in t local stores are going up. toylands are opening, and Santa Claus has arrived in Chicago. The festive holiday parties "and gatherings > are just a few weeks off. If you have taken time oat from these busy days to plan how you, individually, or your family or your group, can share the joys of this Christmas season with those who are less fortunate--perhaps with youngsters whose parents are sick or handicapped or living on incomes that can't possibly be stretched to cover Christmas--why not let the Christmas Clearing House be Santa's go-between for you. making it possible for you to send your gift where it is most needed and in a way that will bring the most pleasure? The Christmas Clearing House, operated by the' Community Referral Service of the Welfare Council of Metropolitan Chicago, each year handles appeals for Christmas help from individuals and families and also serves as a referral source for doners who wish to contribute Christmas gifts wis#1* ly. The Clearing House itself has no gifts or baskets to distribute. It primarily serves as a channel between donors and registered social agencies inhere case workers are familiar with the needs of persons under their care. Mrs. H. A. Pfiffner, director of the Clearing House, says that many of the most requested items from youngsters, handicapped men and women, and aged folks in institutions are simple tokens, such as a pair of cotton sock's, bobbypins, cigarettes and inexpensive toys. Gifts of all types are welcomed and will be greatly appreciated; however, Mrs. Pfiffner suggests that individuals and groups give consideration to cash gifts. CasAi remembrances make it possible for mother and dad to shop for their own youngsters, getting what Mary or Johnnie really want and to plan their own Christmas dinner. Cash gifts help kwp the holiday a family affair in the true spirit of the Christmas season. The Christmas Clearing House will channel cash gifts through I recognized social agencies direct to needy families. The agencies can tell you about a real family situation whare the needs and wants wants of the members are known. Although the name of the family will not be known to you, your gifts will be real to them. "If, however, holiday shopping has a special meaning for you. we can tell "you about special gifts that can be purchased for children in an institution--individual gifts of toys or clothing, or play equipment to be enjoyed for months to come," Mrs. Pfiffner added. Another suggestion is the purchasing and wrapping of simple gifts for some cf the many persons who will be in a hospital on Christmas Day.

Viruses Stailei Key to victory over many viruses that now cripple and kill domestic animals may soon be found with the aid of the electron microscope. Viruses, which are disease-producing agents too small to be seen under most laboratory instruments, can now be studied under electron microscopes that magnify objects 60,000 to 70,000 or more times. According to veterinary medical reports, the viruses of equine infeetio^ is anemia, Newcastle disease of poultry, and foot-and-mouth disease recently have been photographed through these powerful'magnifiers. Information gleaned from a study of the photographs is expected to guide future animal disease research. . Need rubber stampsT Order a The Plalndealer.
