FIRST AID to the
- !! A 9!:!! |! ! HOUSE
by Roger C. Whitman -

QUESTION: We have Just
moved into our new home. We
were told to stain our kitchen cabi-
nets and then wax them. After
living in the house a month we
found that the cabinets we're be-
coming stained and marred by the
water splashing on the wood. We
would like to remove the wax and
restain and then varnish them Is
there anything we can use to re-
move the wax from the cabinets
without harming the wood?
ANSWER: Turpentine is a SOL
vent for wax; use it literally to re-
move all traces of wax. The liquid
is inflamable, so ventilate the
room while working and shut off
all pilot lights and refrigerator. II
you wish to apply another stain of
the same color, this can go right
on over the old one, although the
second staining will make the
color still darker. If you wish to
tighten the color, you can apply
wood bleach, on sale at large
paint stores.

Malaria Still Regarded
Greatest Mass Killer

Although malaria, mankind S
greatest killer, no longer claims
its toll among the worlds great as
it did before discovery of quinine.
the disease still remains the "most
important in the world from the
standpoint of prevalence.
The yearly number of cases
throughout the world is estimated
at 900 million with million
deaths
Even in the United States, be-
tween one and five million cases
occur annually with an estimated
1900 deaths.
By claiming such figures as
Alexander the Great, Lord Byron,
Oliver Cromwell, King James
of England, and a dozen or more
popes among its victims, malaria
through the ages has enormously
influenced world history.

Not Always luck

For the angler who contends that
fishing is not always "95 per cent
luck" here is some ammunition:
Surveys have shown that the sue
cessful angler, whether he uses it
consciously or subconsciously, is
employing experience and skill
won through years of engaging in
the sport of fishing, together with
a wealth of "know-how'' whenever
he comes home with a nice catch
of fish.
These surveys reveal, for in
stance, that the late-summer ang-
Ter must know, if he is going to
get any results, that best catches
are made in this season from eddy
waters around rocks, logs, root
wads, and along edges where
plants and cover provide accessible
food. Many fishermen, through in
experience or lack of knowledge,
pass up these places in search for
large, deep pools in which to try
their luck.
How many anglers, for example,
know that in many lakes the late
oullllileI IlOllLHS pIOuuCe water
stagnation in the lower half of the
water level? The novice angler,
fishing such spots, would be
tempted to fish deep, thinking the
the fish would surely be found in the
deeper, cooler waters. AS matter
of fact, however. the contrary is
often the rule, since the fish will be
circulating in the upper Is feet of
water in such lakes because that is
where they find sufficient oxygen.
AS tip to live-bait fishermen
wishing to determine proper depths
for angling in late summer and
before fall has chilled the surface
waters:
If your minnows die quickly at
the depth you are fishing them,
you are most likely fishing in the
stagnant, or non-oXygenized, water
level and should fish at consider
ably lesser depth.

stand out in obvious degree when
champion pointer or setter is at
work.
But the lesser, unsung breeds Of
bird dogs are beginning to come in
for share of the attention which
rightfully should have been theirs
years ago. Among these are the
German shorthaired pointers, the
Gordon setter, the Brittany spani-
els, and even cookers and spring
ers when the game is to be flushed
close to the gun.
All these proven breeds, though
lacking the flash and class of
their swifter, more spectacular
kinsmen, can and will do the job
that is to be done, provided they
are properly trained and carry
within themselves the instinct to
hunt which distinguishes the true
bird dog whatever his breed.
