 6ia-Minute Trip
 For the first time they have dem- onstrated certainly that ultra high frequency radio waves can pene- trate the ionosphere, the electrified outer areas of the earth's atmo- sphere beyond which ordinary radio waves cannot go.
 They hope next to establish radar contact with one of the planets, pos- sibly Mars, the fascinating red globe whirling 35,O00,O00 miles beyond earth in the Suns system. The radar round-trip to Mars. at f86, 900 miles second, would take about 6 IA minutes.
 Signal Corps scientists achieved their first contact with the moon, 23G,857 miles away, on Jan. 10, the pulses completing the round trip in about 2 l-2 seconds. They used a n.odernized radar set directly de- scended from the less powerful model S'hich spotted Japanese planes l32 miles from Pearl Harbor on Dec. T. l94l.

Put some cologne on cotton and
tuck it into your clothing for de-
lightful scent.
Use the cuffs from dads worn
out shirts for making shoulder
pads. They're firm and generally
give you all the padding you need.
Here's a way to hang your crisis
cross curtains so you won't have
to use double rod. Takes a little
sewing on your part, but in the
end none of the rod will show.
Simply basic the top curtain to the
lower one over the curtains top
row of stitching. Run the curtain
rod through the heading on the
under curtain. Top one gathers
with it.
When the edges joined in a seam
are cut on the bias, it is helpful to
basic piece of paper in with the
two edges of fabric. After the
seam is stitched tear away the
paper. This little trick keeps the
bias edges from stretching.

A broom that is sprinkled with
kerosene occasionally will gather
dust more easily.
In patching underwear, use small
cross stitches around the edge Of
the patch, say the experts. This
makes for elasticity.
To give your dinner party an air
of the unusual, serve small scoop
of orange sherbet floating in chilled
apple juice.
On any small apron sew numer-
Gus pockets. Into these slip your
toilet articles. Fold the apron and
put it in your suitcase. Then when
you need a freshening up, toilet
articles are where you need them.
In order to get much Vitamin
c, turnips should be eaten raw.
Turnip sticks or slivers really are
