Lakemoor-Lflymoor URGE CHILDREN TO USE CAUTION WHEN BIKE RIDING 9hbl«y Sdmcsrr M5-S645 Parents, do you know where your child or children are on their bikes after dark? Several children have been riding on IJly Lake road (the blacktop) in packs. These children have no lights whatsoever on their bikes where a -driver of a car can see them. They almost caused an accident last Thursday evening. Not only are they riding in packs without lights, but they are daring the drivers of cars to see how close they can come to the cars. To them this might seem like fun, but this is a very dangerous way of having fun. No driver can stop on a dime the way most children think a driver can. A driver can have breaks one second and none the next, this has already happen. Parents please explain to your child or children they are not playing with a toy in a car, and how dangerous this can be to them as well as the drivers. Several complaints have been coming in about this riding bikes and daring drivers at night, as well as during the day. Rummage Sale Sponsored by the Woman's auxiliary is this Saturday, Oct. 26.

It seems that those who have most to do, and who do the same, willingly, always find most time to do things. Page Nin£ m worn I by Maggie LovtweU I If you're like me, you'd hate to part with YOUR ELECTRIC BLANKET (good for backaches, too). But the top binding gets awfully soiled after a few months. To protect it, make blanket casing from old sheet folded in half. Sew sides only. You can slip sheet off and wash as often as you like. Nothing irks more than to find the SHOE POLISH HARDENED. Well, soften it quickly, ready to use, just by adding a little turpentine. In fall fashion KNITS ARE THE NEWS, so be extra cautious to keep yours nice and pretty. Always save tags that tell how to clean the garments. Knits can easily stretch and shrink, and even dry cleaners have to take special pains with them. All bulky items, those with fancy trim, your best suit, silk knits, so on, should be dry cleaned. Tell your cleaner what type of knit it is. Always try to wash sweaters and small items yourself. EXTRA TIP: Never store knits on hangers--always fold them up, to avoid creasing and stretching out of shape. Old Grumpy Puss I^ovewell is pretty smart when it comes to FIREPLAC ETARTING. He saves old burned-down candles and puts them in with the logs. Wax melts over the wood and he gets a strong fire started resal quick! < » SMARTY-CUT: Lift stampf off envelopes easily.

WHEJf BUYING APPLES, you picfi, according to how you're goingto fix them. The Delicious var* ieties, Red or Golden, are best for just plain eating, or slicing up in salads and fruit desserts. For pies, applesauce, general baking--the prize kinds are Baldwin, Rome Beauty, Rhode. Island Greening. Most Important: Know whether the apple holds its shape when cooked, or has tendency to "mush up." For firm shape, best varieties are Rcme Beauty, Jonathan, Grimes Golden, or Baldwin.
