• To determine if bak
ing powder is still active,
mix one teaspoon with one-
third cup hot water. If the
combination bubbles vig^
oruusly, the baking powder
is still good to use.
• An emptied, large-size
detergent bottle with a dis
penser top (well washed
and aired) is perfect to use
for watering plants. You
can control the flow of the
water—and there’s no drip.
• If you have a washing
machine with no lint trap,
make one from an old nylon
stocking. Put the stocking
over the drainage hose,
fasten it tightly, then pro
ceed as usual. The stocking
traps the lint, is easily dis
posed of, and ends con
tinually clogged drains. (Do
not use with a suds saver
washer.)
• Try wearing a white
canvas glove when grating
vegetables, etc., and save
yourself the problem of
possible grated knuckles
and fingers.
A musty odor in your cot
tage furniture? Sprinkle
napthalene flakes between
and under cushions on
chairs, sofa, etc. The flakes
will evaporate and leave a
fresh, clean smell.
Faulty Brakes Responsible For
Great Number Of ffighway Deaths
Moving a car forwaid is easy;
stopping surely and safely when
it’s ncx.'essary is something else
again. And one of the more com
monplace mechanical failures re
sponsible for wrecks is faulty
brakes.
Lights, wipers, horns and other
accessories can go bad, and do,
but for pure panic few driving
exptTiences surpass a sudden
brake failure. And most such
failures can be blamed on indif
ferent care.
Actually, say maintenance ex
perts of the State Highway Pa
trol, drivers should know the
diffeience between good and bad
brakes and the care necessary to
keep them in top condition.
Narly a year later Trooper F.
C. Simmons of Halifax wonders
if a little car care might not
have saved nine lives.
‘He was the investigating offi
cer at a wreck on a rural road
near Scotland Neck. A speeding
car had ran off the road, smash
ed into a pine ti*ee, killing nine
of the occupants.
Significant in Simmons’ report
was the statement: “...was go
ing west at a high rate of speed i
when the right front tire start- !
ed marking the roadway for 81
feet to shoulder, marked shoruld-
er for 189 feet to pine tree which
it hit."
Officers theorized the driver
may have sensed he was going
too fast, tried to slow down by
braking (perhaps in a panic)
when something went wrong.
“Something” could have meant
a grabbing brake shoe, the long
skid mark to oblivion is mute
evidence of it.
Automobile brakes are usually
reliable and give ample warning
if they do start going bad, ac
cording to technicians. Adjust
ment and periodic attention sim
ply can’t wait until next week
because an emergency situation
demanding top braking perform
ance can arise at any time.
Highway patrol mechanics en
dorse a simple sequence of tests
which will imlicate the wndition
of your brakes.
First test is to push down the
brake pedal hard and hold it.
There should be a solid feeling
after very little pedal travel. If
the brake feels mushy or it tra
vels excessively—to within two
inches of the floor~it indicates
the need for adjustment. Or may
be more detailed work only a
trained specialist can detenmine.
Next, pick a quiet street or
section of road an dmake several
stops from medium speed. Care
fully note any tendency of the
car to pull to one side. Then,
with the hand brake pulled up
tight, acceserate slightly to see
if there’s any imovement against
slight engine pull. With good,
well adjusted brakes the engine
will promptly stall.
Performance of the hand, or
emergency brake, is important
too. It should be able to hold the

Frequent, sudden stops shorten
the life of brake linings quicker
than anything else, according to
the experts.
And safety men add that such
exhibitions are a bad practice to
start with and indicate reckless
ness or driver inattention. For
longer brake life stay alert to
what’s ahead, anticipate your
stops and begin slowing down
gradually.

The Rev. Robert Lee Haden,
Headmaster of Trinity Day
School, announces that the first
day of classes will be Wednes
day, September 1.
The school is accredited by the
Episcopal School Association end
the Kanuga School Assocuation..
It operates under the highly re
spected and successful Carden
Method. This method encourages
the child to think, analyse, ob
serve, gain coinfidence and pro
gress at his own rate of spcetl.
Tlie school is also interested in
the physical and spiritual grov^dh
of the child as well es the men
tal growth.
Ever since the descendants of
Noah tried to build a tower that
would reach to heaven, one man’s
language has been another man’s
noise.
It was a scv€*re punishment
for the arrogance of man. who
today is confronted with more
than 2,7(X) spoken languages, not
to mention dialects, accoiding to
World Book Encyclopedia,
Alonj vviin pro.:k»rs of com
munication, the glut of languages
has provided another instrument
for expressing national pride,
and even hostility. The ancient
Greeks, for example, called all
non-Grrek speakere "Barbaroi.”
or “babblers”—an unhappy end
ing for the word “Babei.” which
originally meant “gate of God.”
After the French Revolution,
which created a wave of nation
alism in France, letters address
ed in Breton, the old language
of the northwestern tip of
France, were returned to the
sender. Sinhala is the official
language of Ceylon; but when
the government tried to enforce
its use in 1961, some two million
people who speak Tamil revolte<l.
Some countries have tried to
solve the language problem by
having more than one official
language. Canadians use both
French and English. Switzerland,
which has been at peace longer
than most countries, has three
official tongues—German, French
and Italian and ro^-o^nizes I
Romansh as a fourth national
language. 1
To put an end to the babble, j
some persons have suggesttnl
that one existing language e >
made universal, but then there's ■
the problem of which one. The j
French philosopher Descartes I
had an admirable idea when he
proposecl that an artificial Jan- :
guage be created to serve as an I
international tongue. He moy i
only have complicated things,
however, for several hundicNl ar- j
tificial languages - including Vol- *
apuk. Interlingua, Spelin and
Nopo- have been nominattHl for
the honor.

“Outstanding Young Democrat

has held many positions with
the North Carolina YDC during
the post few years, will seek
