CONTESTANT -- Muj Donna Marie Scarboro. 17. has been selected to be a finalist in the 1977 North Carolina United Teenager Pageant to be held at the Reeves Auditorium. Methodist College. Fayetteville.Aug. 20. [Photo by Lyfe- Photographic ] From The Home Agent's Desk by Mrs. Ellen Willis If rain threatens your family's cookout -- don't move that charcoal grill inside. And for good reasons. If barbecuing is done outside where there is plenty of ventilation, it's safe. But the danger comes when people try to escape bad weather and move grills into closed garages, porches, cabins, tents or station wagons. Smoldering charcoal gives off carbon monoxide -? the same deadly fumes that come from car exhaust. It's an invisible, odorless, tasteless gas, so there's no warning of its presence. And just because the charcoal has low flames doesn't mean you're safe. It only takes 17 charcoal briquets burning in a small, un ventiliated room to cause death in about 45 minutes. Even putting a grill in an indoor fireplace can be hazardous. Unless there is a good draft in . the chimney, carbon monoxide will not be carried up and out of the house. Only the built - in grills are ventilated properly for indoor cooking. So don't take chances, When rain ruins your picnic, wait until it stops -- or don't barbecue. Using a charcoal fire to cook inside is taking a chance with your life. Crash Savings Chances are you've heard of a crash diet. But have you ever tried crash saving? Instead of losing pounds ?? you gain dollars. Here's how it works. Let's say you decide that for three months, you'll buy only absolute necessities. You'll cut out, or way down, on movies, concerts, week end trips, taxis, restaurants, des serts, steaks. You'll take sand wiches for lunch, walk any distance under one mile and stay away from sales. If you've been drawing . SI 00 a week for walking arbuftd cash, keep drawing it, but put the amount you save - maybe $30 or $50 a week - into a special savings account. At the end of three months, sit down and gloat over your new savings balance. Then go back to your usual savings routine. < Crash savings may sound a bit drastic - but it can work. Door-To-Door Contracts Ever change your mind about something bought from a door - to - door salesperson? If it costs >26 or more, you have the right to cancel the contract up to three business days after purchase. However, there are certain things that must be done to cancel the contract and get your money back. When you buy or order something, the salesperson must give you a contract with a notice of cancel lation attached. He must tell you about this notice as well as give it to you. The notice of cancellation must be in the same language he used when he talks to you. Also, make sure the salesperson fills in the date of sale, his name, business address, and the date by which he must receive the notice of cancellation if you change your mind. To cancel, all you have to do is fill out and return the notice of cancellation in three days or less. And be sure to keep a copy for your records Jurors Called Sixty nine persons have been summoned for jury duty for this week's term of Superior Court.

English, Willie Jacobs, George Housing Tips By Willie Fealheralone, Jr. Asst. Agri. Ext. Agent Fleas may become a problem wherever dogs, cats, or other furry pets are allowed inside the house. Fleas attack humans, as well as >. animals, and a house overrun by ? them is almost impossible to live in. . These pests feed on animal or ? human blood. They cannot breed or survive without this blood. The female flea lays her eggs on fets. Then the eggs fall off and atch in places where the pet spends most of its time. Indoors, these places may include chairs. . sofas, rugs, carpets, the pet's bed, . or even a part of the basement r floor. The larval fleas that hatch from the eggs develop to maturity ? in cracks in the floor and other hiding places. A home may become heavily infested with larvae before ? they are noticed. Adult fleas that result from the ? larvae can live several weeks ? without feeding. This explains why ? people who own dogs and cats ? sometimes have fleas upon re i turning from vacation. [. Fleas can be controlled in the ? home by a combination of good | housekeeping and the use of j insecticides. First, thoroughly clean \ the infested rooms several times ? with a vacuum cleaner. This would 1 include thoroughly cleaning car ? pets, rugs, upholstered furniture t and any other items on which eggs or larvae may be found. Then apply insecticides if you feel these are necessary. Apply surface sprays containing such chemicals as diazinon, baygon, dichlorvos, malathion. or pyrethrins. These materials are often purchased in household aerosol sprays or other ready mixed household chemicals. You'll find these products at garden centers and at grocery stores. Be sure to use a non ? staining product when spraying your rugs, carpets, and upholstered furniture. When applying insecticids, treat the baseboards, the cracks in the floor, the rugs, the carpets, furniture, and places in the home where your pets frequent or sleep. You may need to repeat the treatment after about a week because eggs will continue to hatch. Usually insecticides will not control the unhatched egg. The best way to prevent flea infestations in the house is to control the fleas on the pets. A dust containing four to five percent malathion or sevin can be used. These are safe and effective when applied directly to mature dogs or cats. Rub it into the fur all the way to the skin. Fresh insect control collars should also be kept on pets, especially during warm months. Burrellton Nations, Ollie Ingram. James D. McGougan.
