TAKING OFF DOORS

Question: We are remodeling our
house, and it is necessary to take
off a number of doors temporarily.
What is the best way to do this?
Answer: The proper way to take
door off its hinges is as follows:
First, open the door part way and
put a block or a book under the
outside bottom corner. The bottom
hinge then should be separated, fol-
lowed by separating the top hinge.
If the top hinge is separated first.
slipping of the door would create
SO much leverage that the bottom
hinge would be bent or broken. In
putting the door back, the top hinge
should be connected first and then
the bottom hinge. AS general
thing, the two parts of hinge are
held together with a pin that can
be driven out with a fat-end tool
like a screw driver.

For attractive drawers that are
easy to keep clean, such as draw

bright-colored paper (paper nap
kins will do) to line them and
cover with waxed paper. The
bright color shows through the
waxed paper and makes the
drawer look cleaner.

SMOKE AND DUST

Question: When we are feeding
the furnace the smoke and dust
come through the registers upstairs.
When the feed door is closed it
stops. What is the cause?
Answer: You evidently have an
opening or crevice around the out
side shell and the furnace door.
Check this possibility, and if any
opening is found fill it with iron CO.
ment, which you can get at your
hardware store.

Stain Wears Off

Question: The finish on the rungs
and seat edges Of my maple dinette
chairs is wearing off, and the ma
tural wood shows through. How can
I refnish these spots to blend in
with the rest of the finish?
Answer: Smooth the exposed wood
by rubbing with fine sandpaper; then
wipe with benzine, being careful of
fire. Finish with a coat of varnish
stain of the same color as that of
the set. You may have difficulty in
matching the finish and it may be
necessary to refnish the set.
Laying Brick Steps
Question: Can you tell me how to
lay brick? I want to make some
outside steps for a small house.
Answer: 1t would require too
much space to give you this infor-
nation. But you can get the in
structions from the Common Brick
Manufa cturers association, Cleve-
land, Ohio. Books on masonry work
can be found on the shelves of your
public library.
Taking up Linoleum
Question: How can I remove limo
leum that has been cemented to the
floor?
Answer: Begin by tearing off all
the linoleum that can be loosened.
The cement holding the remaining
pieces can be softened by flooding
with water, which will work under
meath. Remove the remainder of
the linoleum paste and felt, if any.
with hot water.
Refrigerator
Question: AS we must discontinue
the use of our electric refrigerator
for while, can I just turn off the
electricity or must have service
man come and close it?
Answer: The refrigerator can be
shut down by cutting off the cleo
tricity and leaving the refrigerator
door open. If the box is to be shut
down for long time, I would adj
wise having a serviceman put it in
order.
Creosote Stains
Question: How can keep the cre-
osote from my Chimney from coming
through and staining the wallpaper?
Answer: Staining Of the wallpaper
might be prevented by Turing out
the chimney wall and finishing it
with gypsum walIboard or laths
and plaster. If the creosote condition
is very bad, it may be necessary to
rebuild the chimney.

 He glanced at his wrist watch. "Gesh'" he exclaimed "I'd bet ter hurry or I'n be late for the volley ball game"
 Who's playing?" we inquired.
 Its mixed teams. We don't have enough fellows to make up full teams so we have to get some of the girls to fill in. It's not so good but we have to make out the best we can"

 How about that?" we ques- toned a sergeant confidentially. What's the story on all this cheese cake which is on all sides of us?"
 ''Oh thatn' he comes back with an excellent example of scorn. You wouldn't think so much of 1t if you had to look at it all day long?"
 Wouldn't we?" we inquired politely but doubtfully.
 Its like anything else" he ex- plained patiently Having pret- ty girls around all the time you get used to it and after a while you get sort of fed up"
 Like having too much spam?" we suggested.
 Something like that" he agreed, ''only it don't get quite that critical?"
 Elsewhere in Alaska" we pointed out, "it is not critical at all. In fact at some points sol diers have been known to re- mark at the shortage of girls. By pulling few strings you could get yourself transferred to one of those places and avoid further annoyance.
 Don't get me Wrong,' the ser geant haStened to assure us, I'm not dissatisfied and I'm not complaining I like my work and everything but it's no soft job like a person might think. We really work, keeping track of the service men who are signed up for courses. They move around so much that in many cases each lesson has to be mailed to a diff ferent address"
 This appeared logical but we had to confess we were unim- pressed by this. apparent draw back. Work also occurs elsewhere in the armed forces We decided to dig up new source of in- formation.
 A corporal was crossing the campus attended by four girls two blondes, a brunette and Native girl. We rescued him.
 "What kind of recreation is available here" we inquired, eX- pecting him to laugh in our face.
 The corporal pondered. the question for a moment. Well, he said, eff you like fishing there s plenty of trout in nearby streams. Or you can take hike to the mountains, a short distance from here, and do some hunting if you have a license"
 What else," we prompted him.
 "That's about all" he told us. "We have movies three nights a week but most of the films are old and it's better to take a bus to Fairbanks if you're a movie fan. It's only about 30-minute ride and we have class A pass es.
 eff we had such pass we would never use it, we declared. eve would not even consider ab- senting ourselves from a post such as this"

Thomas
Challenges
Texas Law

WASHINGTON (FP)-Consti-
tutionality of the anti-labor, Chris
tian American backed Texas Man.
ford act was challenged in petit
tion filed in supreme court Jan.
by Pres. R. j. Thomas of the Unit
ed Auto Workers (CIO).
Thomas was arrested Sept. 90
in Goose Greek, Tex, for soliciting
members for the Oil Workers In
ternational Union (CIO) without a
state license, forbidden under the
Manford act. While acquitted on a
technicality, the union president
was sentenced to three days in jail
and fined 500 for ignoring court
order enjoining him from making
a membership appeal.
His supreme court petition con-
tends that his constitutional right
of free speech was violated by the
law and that this right 'is one
which affects more than 12,000,000
workers who are now organized
into labor unions in this country"
"The effect of this statute" he
said, "is to restrict and limit the
labor unions of this country in
their effort to organize workers,
particularly in the states where
only recently organizing efforts
have begun"
