PARIS.

PARIS.
From Mrs. D. w., Takomd ParkJ
Having returned from Paris in
October, and having lived in
France a number of years. I be-
lieve I can give Mrs. T. P. the
f1rst-hand information she so des-
perately wants.
I think you need have no fear
of taking the children to Paris at
present, for conditions are much
improved over what they were
during the war and they are i'm
proving right along. However,
here are a few suggestions I
would offer.
Take along powdered or canned
milk. as milk is still closely ra-
toned. Adults receive none, chill
dren receive a pint a day, I be-
lieve, but it is usually not pas
teurized and must be boiled.
Take along orange juice in
some form. as fresh oranges are
hard to find and canned fruit
juices are rare and expensive.
Take supply of soap powder
and soap flakes for the children S
clothes, as soap is still rationed.
(Of course, if you have access
to an Army PIX you will find all
these products over there)
/ Take along warm clothing even
for the summer season. as it never
gets really hot and is sometimes
quite cool a good share of the
summer.
Take advantage of this fine op-
portunity TO visit the many places
of interest in Paris and nearby
places-they are endless. If you
want to give the youngsters big
time take them to the Tuileries or
the Luxembourg Gardens to ride
the donkeys and sail the little SAIL
boats on the pond. They'll love it
at least my boy did! And take
my word for it, the longer you live

SPOTS IN TUREEN?
fFrom II. r. r.. Arington.)

from II. r. r., AriHgtOrJ
Recently I bought an ironstone
tureen which appeared to be quite
white. When I used it for q
buffet supper. large brown spots
appeared on the surface, which
had not shown before. I imagine
this was caused by the fact that
the inner substance had been i'm
pregnated with grease over the
period of years that it had been
used as a soup tureen.
I have soaked it for days at q
time in household bleach water,
using it strong. The spots shift
but come out elsewhere. 50 feel
sure if I knew the proper thing
to use for a bleach, 1t would be
drawn out entirely.
Can any one help me to get
these spots out? What other
stronger bleaches could I use?

BOOKS FOR CHuD2

from Mrs. II. b., Washinotonl
I am anxious to find 2 books
for a little boy who loves to have
stories read to him. The books ]
am looking for are 'The Wizard
of OF. and The Story of Pin
nocchio," by Collodi.> The first
book is by L. Frank Baum.
i want to locate copies with the
old-time Illustrations, not the
modern ones. I believe Denslow
was the illustrator of the original
Wizard Of o." The copy of
"Pinnocchio which I saw, was
purchased about 1924, and I for
get the name of the artist. The
illustrations were in black and
white. and very lovely.
While both of these books can
be purchased in Washington

and it occurred to me that some
reader might know where could
find them with the old illustra-
tions.

The airplanes of Chinese big

1t was utterly impossible to con-

true. the jig may be up.
The latest garrison communique

The Reds were reported trying
