LAW OF GRAVITY ; A slippery floor or a cjlttered stairway causes many unpleasant encounters with the law of gravity. According to' the Institute for Safer Living< falls are the leading type of home accidents, resulting in nearly 12,000 deaths annually. Winter months are particularly bad for "inside - the - house-' falls, due to more hours of poorvisibility and entrance tj^or, surfaces made slippery ^bytracking snow and water. Most any youngster can manage on an allowance, until he needs some money. Rice Council Photo Hanging the stockings and trimming the tree are traditional nightbefore- Christmas activities--and feeding Santa's helpers is part of the holiday fun. If you're wondering what to serve on that important eve;, try a friendly Holiday Rice Rarebit. The beauty of the rarebit is that everything can be prepared well in advance, so that all you'll have to do is heat it and eat it when the tree-trimming work is done. The rice can be cooked early in the day, or even at a meal earlier in the week, and heated in a little water or broth. Place it on a buffet or coffee table; provide hot coffee and let everyone serve himself. Rarebit's very rich, so a little will serve a large crowd.
