Household Tips: Are you Won
dering how those pots and pans
are going to last for the duration?
Since the production for these has
been sharply curtailed, you will
want hints on keeping them in
cooking" condition:
Aluminium: Leaving food in
aluminium longer than necessary,
soaking the utensil before wash
ing and alkalies such as soda spell
short wear for this metal. If
you want to clean aluminium with
out endangering it's wearing Pc
riod, use very fine securing pow
der or steel wool for discolora-
tons. Or. cooking acid foods like
tomatoes, rhubarb and apples will
do the trick.
Iron: Wash in hot, sudsy wa
ter. If this doesn't clean it, use
hot soda and water. If rusted,
use securing powder or steel
wool. Always dry completely
and wrap in paper for storage.
Tin: This metal does not keep
shiny Indefinitely. Remove burnt
foods by boiling in soda and wa
ter for five minutes, never long
err. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

the side Of the head. Falling, he
pulled the trigger, and the rifle
slammed in the stiffness.
Hands tugged at the gun, but
Joe wrenched it free and swung
the butt. He felt it crunch
home on bone. Then he was on
his feet, with the three of them
lying around him.
The driver, cursing, leaned
from the car window. Some
thing shone in his hand, and
spat. He fred three times. The
bullets drove Joe-Ben back,
