WATER RUGS?

quired thoroughly to no avail, am
turning to you. The problem is
water bugs in our house. There is
no basement and the house Is one
year old. I don't think they are
reaches because they don't travel
so fast, but are reddish in color.
At first, they showed themselves
in MY kitchen cabinets, around
the sinks, and in the bathroom.
We have used numerous bombs
under the house, washed around
areas with soda. nothing helps.
Now they are so numerous that
I am seeing them in my children's
bedroom, adjoining the bath. We
know an exterminator can guar
antee ridding us of them. but it
is so expensive. If any one knows
what we can do, please let me
know at once.

COOKING LIVER.

(From L. L. S., Temple HiHSJ
May I contribute the following
method for the reader who wished
to know how to avoid having
dried-up rubber in place of min
eral-rich and tender juicy liver.
Half Inch slices scalded to clot the
blood. Let stand for a few min
utes. Mix salt, pepper and flour.
Remove liver and let dry on paper
towel.
Coat with flour mixture and
cook slowly in medium hot fat
or bacon grease. about S minutes
on each side is the amount of
doneness we like. Liver is rich
in iron and copper. Also spinach
seems married to liver and in
order to really utilize the iron in
spinach, always chop parsley into
it, as the copper in parsley gives
the iron in spinach just what the
body needs.

TABLECLoTHs.

fFro7n Mrs. J. E. H., HyGttSDilIeJ
Would like to pass on to Mrs.
J. j. L., Washington a few Of the
ideas I have worked out when
faced with her same problem, the
outgrown tablecloths.
The plain cloths look very nice
with a wide border Of stripe or
print material Of the same weight
and texture. The prints are
sometimes improved by wide
border of plain material. If your
linen cloths are a good weight
and plain. they look beautiful!
with a crocheted border to make
it fit the table or makes a very
striking cloth when cut in squares
and put back together with lace
or crocheted insertion with border
to match.
Even embroidery may be added,
if desired, or fagotting used to
put the borders on. The cotton
prints are the hardest, especially
as you do not want to put too
much work on them, but some of
them can be used successfully by
cutting in four pieces and using
each piece as a corner of a plain
cloth.
Some of these cloths also make
handsome kitchen curtains. And
almost any cloth except the bor-
der prints make nice luncheon
sets, place mats, napkins and run
ner. Any that cannot be adapted
to the large table will probably
come in handy anyway. I find
that I often want small cloth
for a bridge table or coffee table
for special service.
(From Mrs. r. E. ~, HugheSUilleJ
I suggest that some very nice
place mats could be made from
your small tablecloths. Hem them
if you wish, trim them or fringe
them. To fringe ravel out threads
one-half-inch deep on all four
sides and sew on machine just at
the edge of fringe to prevent
further raveling. Perhaps lunch
con cloths for card tables could
be made from some of the too
small cloths. Place mats look
prettier longer than wide. Note:
Hemmed oblong place mats can
be also used as napkins.

Role OF Soldiers
Is Network Drama

NEW YORK, Feb. 49, "The
Ordeal Of. Sergeant Dunbar" a
radio drama depicting the role Of
Negro troops in American wars
from the Revolution down to the
present Korean conflict, was pre-
scented under auspices of the Ma
ACP on a nationwide broadcast
over the NBC network.
The script, written by Alvin
Yudkoff, who donated his services,
tells the story of a white sergeant
who became interested in the his
tory of the Negro soldier follow
ing his rescue by a colored CT
in Korea. Walter White, executive
secretary of the National Associa-
ton for the Advancement of
Colored People, concluded the
half-hour program with a brief
statement on the work of the Ma
ACP. The program was presented
in celebration of Abraham Lin
coins 142nd and the NAACP's

The YIimy neud Of Censorship

On February 16, the Board of Regents Of the State
of New York banned the showing Of Roberto Rosselini's
film "The Miracle" This unprecedented action goes far
to abridge the civil rights of the residents of the most
populous state in the Union. That the board was "pressur-
ed' into making this move by a minority group is too we'll
known to require detailed comment at this time.
We have not seen 'The Miracle" Therefore we
have no opinion on it's merits and dement's. But we do
want to be free to choose to see it or not to see it when it
comes to Dayon!
We deny the right of any man or group of men to
say to us what the apostle Paul said to the ancient church
of Corinth, 81 fed you with milk, not solid food, for you
were not ready for it." q Corinthians 3 2, Goodspeed Yer
sion)
No, we are Americans, not Corinthians We are lv-
ing in the 10th Century not the first. We are ready for
"solid food" We hope that film censorship will not raise
its Shiny head in Ohio!
For a minority group to force the banning of a film
through official state action is quite as subversive as the
deeds of the Communist Party.

Democracy On A Small Scale

Do you happen to know how many Negro teachers
in Dayton's public school system are at present assigned to
teach white pupils? Just ONE! And on a "trial' basis
Here is just one of a great host of dismal commentaries
on the shocking backwardness of Dayton in the area Of
human relations!
The Dayton Daily Express does NOT demand that
the Board of Education completely abolish it's ~discrimina-
tory methods Of hiring and placing teachers.
Not that the present policies of the board are
either just or legal - they aren't!
Not that we don't have a moral right to demand
the immediate and complete %stoppage of racial segrega-
ton and discrimination in our school system we DO
have that moral right!
But we know that the present board simply can't
begin all at once to run our schools on a 100 percent A.
merican basis. To do this would involve such radical
changes that the whole system would be thrown into a
turmoil.
So all we ask is that this new policy of integration
be pushed ahead and out Of the "experimental' stage just
as rapidly as is feasible in our %prejudiced community.
May this lone Negro teacher of white pupils be tax
en- off her precarious perch as the Jackie Robinson of the
teaching staff as soon as possible.
