ELECTROCUTION DANGER PRESENT IN MOVING ELEVATORS It happens every fall one or more Illinois farmers are usually electrocuted when corn elevators they are moving contact overhead electric wires. Prank Andrew, rural electrification specialist at the University of Illinois, says such accidents are easy to prevent. He offers these tips: If the move is in your farmyard, pull the fuses at the main service box while moving the elevator so that overhead wires which may touch the elevator are not charged. If this is impossible, have one person watch the operation from a short distance and warn you of close overhead wires.' This final precaution, Andrews . says, may help to avoid doubling the toll if a man is electrocuted. Only after turning off the current or breaking contact With the charged wires is it safe to touch the victim. If the current cannot be turned off, use a dry rope to pull the body away. Failure to observe this rule can mean death or serious injury to anyone touching the victim. Y PLAINDEALEP lpson raffic Safety i H r F ( \ S f C A P f- N 1 I f P - v..1 .1. , >.( '.-I .If.

Scores of folks are trying their hands at interior painting these days. Some are delighted with the results; others are disappointed. Wherein lies the difference ? "Hi ere is more to a professional paint job than just applying the paint, says Dorothy Iwig, home furnishings specialist, University of Illinois College of Agriculture. Time, patience and considerable "know-how" are very important ingredients. The first step, is to prepare the surface for the paint. If the plaster is cracked, take time to do a professional repair job. Use sprackling material for the small hairline cracks. Apply it with a putty knife, a case knife or your finger, working rapidly and smoothing the surface before the filler dries and sets. Large plaster cracks call for piaster patch. Cut out a' triangular channel or trough in the plaster along the line of the crack. Make the channel narrow at the surface and wider at the inside or base. Then feed the plaster patch into the channel through the narrow opening, and smooth the surface. When the filler is thoroughly dry, apply a coat of undercoater or nrimer. The next step & to remove the hardware from the doors and windows and loosen the light fixtures, dust the walls and ceiling or, if they are very soiled ,wash them. Let them dry completely before you attempt to apply the paint. All paint, regardless of type, calls for care in mixing. The job will be easier if you pour most Of the liquid from the can of paint and then mix the remaining liquid with the pigment. Paddle it in until the color is uniform and the texture smooth. Then add the liquid you removed and mix it in carefully, and the paint is ready for the brush. TWICE TOLD TALES Forty Years Ago In honor of Miss Marguerite Granger, who is to be a November bride.

Daniels, commission chairman. An enactment of the last session of the General Assembly provides that on Jan. 1, 1954, facilities of the state correctional institutions will be transferred from the Department of Public Welfare to the Youth Commission.

Pig* Fifteen No Holiday For Balanced Menus Illinois Nutrition Week, scheduled for Nov. 15 through 21, will come at a time when homemakers are on a big merry-goround of activity. Thanksgiving Day is drawing near, and Christmas gift-shopping miy afready have begun. With so much to do, and so little time, there's a natural temptation to put the family on a diet of "hurry-up" dinners and leftover lunches. That's why it is hoped everyone will take seriously the Nutrition Week slogan, "Food First for Fitness." and make sure the family gets all the -nutritious foods it needs. The United States Department of Agriculture says everybody needs these foods: Leafy, green and yellow vegetables. One or more servings daily. Oranges, grapefruit, tomatoes. One or more servings dally. Potatoes and . other vegetables and fruits. Two or. more- servings daily. Milk, cheese, ice cream. Children, three to four cups milk. Adults, two or more cups. Meat, fish, poultry. One serving daily if possible. The most important factor in the winners' sucoeaa in this year's Illinois sheep production project was that they liked and took an interest in their sheep, reports a livestock specialist. -->4AiJ>4k* rr-- • • • -«.• --f* BUSIEST WORKERS EN TOWN!
