FOR SPRING
To catch a fellow, dress in yellow
Is advertised for Spring.
So if you’re out to “catch” a man,
Heed that advice and make your plans.
If strenuous winter activities
are not your cup of tea. you may
find yourself in the “Winter Dol
drums” at this time of year. One
cause of this let-down feeling is
inactivity, which causes boredom.
There are many ways to cast
aside this depression and “sorry
for yourself feeling.” Remember,
the out-door days will soon be
here, so start planning your
flower and vegetable garden.
Then, too, gardening can be back
breaking, so you’d better get
yourself in trim ahead of time.
One way to do this is to take a
short walk each day. You can
also get your seed and bulb cata
logs and be ordering your gar
dening supplies. Planning home
re-decorating can be fun, too, and
profitable if you do it yourself.
The important thing is to plan to
do things "just for fun” and not
do just the things you feel you
must do to keep up with your
friends. Anyway, winter can be
fun and the busy person is most
always happy.
Some people just have the knack
of making What might be a seem
ingly boring subject very inter
esting and two people which ]
have enjoyed hearing recently arc
Mrs. Mary Leggett Drowning and
Mrs. Jane Shoaf. Somehow these
two ladies bring out a clear un
derstanding of the subject at
hand, making it almost like a
picture.
AVOID OVERWEIGHT EAT
TO LIVE: An old saying main
tains that the only certainties we
all face are death and taxes. Now
a third can be added for many
of us: OVERWEIGHT. Accord
ing to estimates—more than one
in eight of us are overweight,
weighing between 10 and 20
per cent more than is healthy.
Apart from being an aesthetic
problem, overweight can lead to
serious medical problems. For
instance, Heart Trouble, high
Hood pressure, hardening of the
arteries, diabetes —all seem to be
related to overweight, although
scientists are not certain why.
So If you want to live longer,
watch your weight and do some
thing about it!
It’s good to know about so
many new innovations in furni
ture and decorations for the home
even the thought of “re-doing” a
room can keep us from being too
bored these pre-spring days. The
new decorated window shades for
instance, offer a striped elegance
or a flower garden to be rolled
up or down at will. The use of
living plants in decorating can
give color and enchantment to
most any room. For example, let
the Philodendron drip from a shelf
in the hallway, or a bracket in
the bathroom. Above all,'don’t be
afraid of color. It is one of tne
most important features of any
room setting.
Did You Know That—
Ordinary clip-type clothespins
make good paper clips. For the
busy housekeeper who is apt to
mislay clippings from this and
that, or to keep bills and letters
from being scattered try using
this simpfle method of using a
clothespin to hold them together.
Someone told me recently that
Glasswax is good for cleaning
pewter.
Bathe nylon hose in borax to
keep them from becoming limp
Use several tablespoons of boiax
in a basin of warm water. Gently
dip hose and the dirt will float;
away.
Put your pie pan on a cookie
sheet when baking. This makes
for easier handling and keeps the
crust and meringue intact.
Here’s a breakfast quickie made
from left-over biscuits: Sol it the
biscuits, butter and sprinkle with
cinnamon sugar or so read with
orange marmalade. Toast spread
side up tinder the bioiler until
the biscuits are all bubbly and
golden.

Poison-Proofing Os Home Urged
Keep your household products
and medicines out of reach of
children, preferably in a locked
cabinet.
Always turn on the light when
giving medicines.
Even the most meticulous house
keeper often neglects giving her
medicine cabinet a thorough spring
cleaning. If youris is crammed
with an assortment of bottles and
jars partly used, outdated, inade
quately labeled drugs, the time
has come for all-out cleaning.
Here are some indications for
the down-the-drain treatment of
“tired drugs”:
Prescription drugs whose labels
are gone or unreadable.
Peroxide Which is flat, milk of
magnesia that has caked, dis
colored spotted ointments, cloudy
nose drops.
Regular cleaning of the medi
cine cabinet is more than just
good-housekeeping. It may be
life-saving.
Today Wednesday—is Buff’s
birthday—just another one of the
great men born in February!
