ANSWERS TO QUERIES.
(From Mrs. N. H. c., Washington
For Mrs. w. q. A., Chevy Chase:
To keep from weeping while slicing
onions, or dicing or scraping, graf
ing or collecting onion juice, try the
sort of comfortable synthetic plastic
spectacles or imitation tortoise
shells (noninfiammable) with plain
glass lenses that you would buy at
a 10 cent store, novelty store or,
village pharmacy for summer, beach
or garden wear. The glass defects
the onion euphoria from the eye
hall surfaces and the tear ducts re-
main unirritated. use them. Have
for 30 years. Or If you use eye
glasses, put them on while on the
onion and knife work, even your
best specs.
A couple of teaspoonfuls OF vine
gar in the boiling water and a
really large gravy spoon with a
long, cool handle might aid the
yolk to arrive yelled on the plate
for poached eggs. You could try
giving As seconds to go seconds more
time to each egg you poach.
Your scrapbooks should bring you
in pleasure nowadays and a re-
newed interest in future years.
From Mrs. A. B.sH., Washington. J
For Mrs. w. G. A., Chevy Chase,
who weeps over onions: A relative
visiting me recently said to slice
the onion down instead OF up to
keep it out of your. eyes. Since i
tried this method, I have used
onions in many more dishes. Slice
the top off the onion first and then
dice, slicing down toward the root
each time. I find that If I leave the
root on and slice everything off the
| top, I can keep the onion from
falling apart. I would appreciate
the experiences of others trying
this method. Maybe I got some
mild onions recently, but they
haven't hurt my eyes.
Maybe Mrs. w. G. A. could afford
one of the gadgets sold for poached
eggs. Some of these are inexpensive
and very convenient. Recently I
saw a pair advertised especially for
egg poaching, but have also seen a
small rack with separate cups to
put into any pan, which will hold
one to four eggs.
If I'm not taking too much space
I would like to add few things on
Child Care which learned with my
second baby. Too much attention
is almost as bad as not enough. I
was unable to get nurse when I

ciate being rocked" to sleep.

Whale Oil Eases
Edible Fot Need

OSLO.-Of a total production OF
S3.615 tons of whale oil, over 4O
per cent has been set aside for the
home margarine industry, and be-
fore the years end Norwegians
will have consumed over 4,OoO
tons of whale fat. Improved meth
DDS of refining and hardening
have made today's margarine
which incidentally is about 80 per
cent whale ola far cry from
older butter substitutes using the
same product.
Vegetable oils and butter, both
of which have added to the fat
content of pre-war Norwegian
margarine have been so limited
that without resources of whale
oil a serious edible fat shortage
might have developed An increas-
ing number of uses for both fish
and whale oils are being found in
Norway at the present time.

Norway Exploration Ship
From u. S. Cutter

OSLO.-The Norwegian Cabinet
is now considering an appropria-
ton of $4,000 Kr. for the pur-
chase of the former U. S. Coast
Guard cutter North Star" for ex-
ploration and scientific studies in
the Antarctic.
This suggestion is seen as pre-
liminary step in preparing for the
joint Norwegian-Swedish-E English
antarctic expedition which is being
discussed for 194S. While it is in
tended to use the North Star as
an auxiliary ship with the main
expedition. plans are underway for
sending the ship to Antarct,ca this
year-to test the ships adaptable
ity and to aid in the training of
young Norwegian scientists who
may accompany the expedition in

Missing Belongings

OSLO-A nationwide search
for furnishings and pieces of art
stolen by the Nazis from Skau-
gum, the home of Norway's
Crown Prince and Princess, is still
underway. Newspapers the coun-
try over are displaying photo
graphs of the missing items, in
Guiding paintings, rugs, and pieces
of furniture, with the request that
anyone recognizing them report
their location to the authorities
Most numerous among the miss
ing items are paintings by some
Of Norway's outstanding artists.
A cache of items stolen from
Skaugum was found shortly after
liberation in a private storeroom
of the late Nazi Reichskommissa
Terboven, but it is feared that
considerable number of the miss
ing goods are scattered over the
country. 1t is quite possible that
many of the missing items are be
ing held by unwilling purchasers
to whom they were sold during the
occupation without the buyer be-
ing aware of their origin.

Norwegian Interest In
Soviet Whaling High

OSLO.-Norwegian sources re-
port that Russia is now out-fitting
a deep-sea whaling expedition. For
a time there was some doubt as
to what the Soviet intended to do
with the former German whaling
factory ship "Wikinger,' but it is
now clear that Russia too is shar-
ing a reviving world interest in
whaling.
The Swedish firm "A/S Separa-
tor" has delivered a large number
of oil separators for installation
aboard the Russian factory ship
"Slava" and it is evident that this
ship is the former German Wi

also seized from Germany are now
being repaired in Russian yards.

Oslo Begins Vocational
Guidance In Schools

OSLO.-Oslo school authorities,
long aware that once the pupils
leave public school the choice of
job or trade is left mostly to
chance, are striking at the heart
of the problem. School and labor
offices have initiated a program
to guarantee the right person in
the right job especially during this
period of reconstruction and labor
shortage. What Do You Wish To
Be" is a question which Oslo
pupils are today attempting to
answer in written themes the city
over. One man and woman teach
err from each school are now TAX
ing a series of special courses un-
der city occupational guidance ex-
perts to prepare them as advisors,
and to aid them in Analysing and
rating on the compositions written
by their pupils.
The program is two-fold: to in
terest the young people and their
parents in determining w h a t
course is to be followed, and to
provide individual occupational
guidance for every single pupil.
This will include, to begin with, a
study of the written composition,
followed by an analysis of the pu-
pills hobbies and free-time inter-
ests. With the pupils then broken
down into general interest and ap-
titude groups psycho-technical
tests and interviews will make it
possible for the school to prepare
a recommendation in each case

The new plan is completely vol

SPOFFORD OVERCOMES
SPORTS CENTER, s TO 0
DAVIDSON

In a contest protested vigorously
by the losers, Spofford Mills edged
out the Sports Center Bulldogs,
60, yesterday at Robert Strange
park.
The whole argument conferred
around a play on which a Sports
Center player intercepted a pass,
and ran it back for a touchdown.
One of the officials. a grammar
school football player, footed his
whistle too soon on the play even
though he said he did mean to, the
rules forced the touchdown to be
called back.
Scoring for Spofford Mills was
Balmb. a s #. 4 in. end, who took
a pass out of the hands Of two
Sports Center players, and raced
40 yards to paydirt.
Outstanding for the winners was
Bobby Hinson, fullback, and for
