First Aid
For the
Aiing House
Nv ROGER B. WHITMAN.

Question: have a garage built
Of stone and concrete mortar. 1t
is built into the ground. The walls
and wooden roof boards are very
moist, especially on damp and rainy
days. The moisture on the walls
makes the garage very damp, caus-
ing every tool to rust. The roof
boards are warped and turning
black.
Answer-The leakage through your
garage walls may be either due to
the absorption of water or its sweat
ing. You can tell whether or not
the walls absorb water by noticing
on a rainy day If the wall on the
windward side is the first to show
dampness. Should that be the case.
one remedy is to paint the walls in
side with liquid tar of asphalt to
make them waterproof. 1t is also
possible to get either clear or col
ored waterprooflng to be applied
to the outside. You can find out
about these waterprooflngs at a
paint store or from a dealer in
mason materials.
If the dampness is from sweating,
the remedy is to line the walls in
side with an insulating board. The
inside of the roof should also be
insulated after replacing the boards
that are warped and making sure
that there are no leaks.
Insulated Attic.
Question: have an unfinished
attic, with no windows or outside
ventilation. The attic floor has
about 8 inches of insulation. If I
add an inch of insulation, and COM
pletely stuff all outside cracks, espe-
cially where walls and roof join,
would the house be warmer? Would
an alright attic be harmful In any
way?
Answer-One inch more of insu-
lation will make but little differ
ence. Closing the cracks will help.
An alright attic above the insula-
ton will be satisfactory in winter,
but in the summer the upper part
of the house will become highly
heated, in spite of the insulation.
For GOODNESS in summer you should
have ample ventilation in the attic
space.
Snowslides on Roof.
Ouestion-Twice last winter the
evergreens around the foundation
of my house were broken by snow
slides from my very steep roof. Is
there type of snow hook that could
be applied to prevent this?
Answer-Snow guards made of a
very heavy copper wire can be in
serted under the wood shingles.
These can be obtained through any
roof material supply house.
Paint for Cellar Walls.
Question-my cellar has never been
whitewashed. How do I prepare 1t
before whitewashing, and what mix
ture do I need to get flrst-class
lob? Is it best to whiteWash with
q brush or a hand sprayer?
Answer-Before painting any sur
face, always remove all dust, dirt
and grease. The dust and dirt on
cellar walls can be removed by
brushing. Grease or oil can be
washed off with a strong solution
of washing soda or trisodium phos-
phate in hot water, followed by thor
ough rinsing with clear water. For
better and more lasting results use
a cement composition paint or one
made of casein. The mixing and pre-
pairing of whitewash is messy job
and the results are not always satis-
factory. Use brush for the paint
Ing of cellar walls.
Ping Pong Table.
Question-Is there any way I can
make an inexpensive ping-pong

"CALL OF YUKON" K NOW BILLED AT
 CAPITOL THEATRE
Numerous Scenes in Pic lure Filmed Near Ju-
 neau by N. Dawn

Among the more exciting an- nounoements to come out of Holly wood was the one from Republic Studios, announcing the production of Call of the Yukon,' opening to- night at the Capitol Theatre, based on James Oliver Curwood's story, Swift Lightning with exteriors filmed in Alaska, close by the Arc tic Circle
 For several months company had been working out of Juneau, photographing the gorgeous noun tains and wastelands of ice for in- clusion in the picture.
 The story is one of human and animal love and affection, with one paralleling the other--the love of man for his woman, and of fine, courageous dog for his mate. Swift Lightning is the name of the dog, dog of such hardness and loyalty as only the frontiers breed, dog to whom no obstacle is great enough 50 prevent him from proving his loyalty to master and mate alike.
 Two bear cubs, necessary to the picture were shipped to Hollywood by the company in Alaska: but they grew so large that they could not be used. The studio made search for others the right size. but this being the off-season for bear cubs, it was necessary to secure them from the Ross Allen Institute, in Florida, where they are hot-houSe grown. Literally, Republic searched from one end of the country to the other, and from the two extremities came the icelandic specimen.
 Also in the cast of animals is Fire fly, Swift Lightnings mate, beau tiful collie dog, and an arctic owl, who figures in comedy moment of the picture, fighting the two bear cubs. Both Swift Lightning and Firefly were in intensive training since June. 1887, preparing for their roles. They were kept together con stantly, so that the affection which is seen on the screen is real affec- tion, not of the synthetic sort

 Having already got Austria and Sudetenland, Germany was exert ing economic mad diplomatic pres sure right down the valley of the Danube, casting eyes at the Ukraine. and making it's weight felt with bal lots in Memel Would she trans late her influence into acts?
 Italy, which was Germany's ap- proving partner in much of her ex- pansionist plans, had a plan of her own afoot to expand at the expense of France. How much further 1t would go, appeared to be a matter of chance.

There's new ray of hope for a means of combating cancer in l339 and the new hope is ray.
 Neutrons, which come from break up of metallic atom when metal is bombarded with high energy rays such as radium. are the new weapon Unlike other particles, neutrons are free of electrical charges which tend to defect penetrating rays. They go straight through.
 The cyclotron, an apparatus in- vented by Dr. E. o. Lawrence of the University of California, is the best source. Several universities hope to perfect the ray in 1889.

And opponents of the administration farm program have pointed to recent crop referenda as proof that the AAA must be chang ed

 Politics
 The new year is likely to be one of political evolution When the revit- alized Republican minority in Con- gress tangles with the Democrats on such subjects as relief, spending, la- bor policy, social security, and mon- opoly, both sides will be consider ing how the arguments will affect their position in 1940.
