My husband has just received
word that he is being transferred
to Santiago in about three weeks.
We will be travelling by plane
with a young son of 2 years. In
asmuch as the transfer is for less
than two years duration, any
household goods, ETC., we take
will have to be at our own ex-
pense. We are expecting a sec
ond baby in May, which further
complicates our moving problems.
We also have a small dog to
whom our son is strongly at
tached. II any of the RICH read

and can help out with informa-
tion of any sort regarding living
conditions in Santiago. 1t would
be greatly appreciated.
Also, does any one know any
thing about obstetricians, mater

available, and at what percentage
OF markup?
Are Chilean substitutes salts

it be wise to take a one-year sup

Readers Clearing House
OIL PAINTING

(From Mrs. P. B. g., Washington
Directions for making simulated
oil paintings by lacquering:
l. The print or picture to be
processed should itself be on a
fairly good quality of paper to
start with, else the dampness of
the lacquer may cause splotching
or discoloration and results in
general be disappointing.
2. Mount your picture on a
heavy piece of cardboard, allow
ing mucilage or paste used for
this purpose to become thorough
ly dry before going on to the next
step.
8. Working on q fiat surface.
cover the now dry mounted pic
ture with a piece of heavy cheese
cloth of large, coarse, open mesh
for best results. Anchor both pic
ture and cheesecloth covering, so
that neither will slip during the
lacquering process.
4. Using a clear lacquer, brush
the covered picture thoroughly
with 1t. Use plenty, but don't
'overdo it.
S. just before the lacquer dries
remove the cheesecloth, gently
but firmly, from the picture. The
result should be a lustrous, stip-
pied effect resembling oil painting
Note: The lacquering has the
added adv ntage of making the
picture dustproof. No glass will
be needed for framing. And no
frame will be needed If, for an in
expensive but attractive substitute
you would like to mount the
lacquered picture on a mat of
white poster-board, any size de-
sired, using passpartout. a gum
mer paper tape available in black
or colors around the edge of the
mat for a make-believe frame.
Both poster board and passepart-
out may be found at art supply
counters or picture-framing de-
partmentS for a nominal sum.

| TFOREWORD FOR SCRAPBOOK.
From Mrs. M. A.. Washington.j
| I, for one, want to let Mrs. M. B.
know how much I enjoyed the
beautiful poem "Unawares" sent
in by her. It is indeed a lesson
wen spoken and will be a cherished
addition to my scrapbook collec-
tion.
Speaking of scrapbooks, to
those of you who keep one, I
wonder If you would like this
little introduction or foreword
taken from "The House Of
Dreams"
This is my scrapbook. Here I
keep my treasured thoughts. Come
take a peep.
Come kindred spirits, you will
find thought to cheer your
troubled mind.
These things I've cherished,
odds and ends.
IT share them with my dearest
friends.
Come sot beside me and we'll
look, and turn the pages of this
book. and dream a dream of
happy things, of trees and stars
and flowers and wings.
Life is a scrapbook, torn and
old, in which our little lives are
told.
And when the twilight shadows
fall, this is the sweetest thing Of
all:
ITO turn the pages Of the years,
remembering with happy tears,
the faithful love, the perfect
friend.
These things we treasure to
the end"
POUND CAKE?
From Mrs. M. S. r., ArIington.)
I am wondering if you can for
ward recipe of a pound cake
cut from the RCH in about 1943.
I put mine somewhere for safe
keeping, it was much worn from
using, and now can't find 1t. tt
is an excellent recipe, and makes
a cake that has never failed me.
I remember it called for 22s cups
of flour. l cup of butter, a cup Of
eggs 6 or g., the flour and butter
is mixed first instead of butter
and sugar as in some cake. I
think the baking time was 80
minutes.
I hope some one has this recipe
and think there are many people
who would enjoy it again.

FAIRBANKS, Alaska, (P)-Dr. Ferris Moore, president of the Uni versity of Alaska, Saturday con- firmed reports that two University students lowered the American flag and tried to raise the Red flag during commencement exer- cises May 21 at which Governor Warren of California spoke.
 One of the students, identified during a chase afterward, was later expelled. His identity was not disclosed The identity of the other student still is not known.
 Dr. Moore said the faculty had been forewarned that certain stu dents would try to ''ball up" the exercises. Members of the Univer- sity's Reserve Officers Training Corps were stationed on the cam pus to watch for any demonstra- tions or "overt acts."
 An R.O.T.C. guard saw an at tempt to raise the Red flag and chased two offenders. Both es- capped but one was recognized in the pursuit.
 Dr. Moore said the two were part of small number of radical or prank-playing students that "can be found on any university campus.
 Manager Al Bramsted said some one deliberately cut the radio transmission line prior to the Warren speech, preventing the California governors talk from being broadcast.

Disappearance Of British Diplomats Puts New Strain
 On U. S.-BritiSh Relations

LONDON, R The hunt for two missing top-drawer British diplomats widened suddenly from France to Italy Saturday after the Foreign Office disclosed a tele- gram to relative of one of them was sent from Rome.
 A British Embassy officials in Rome said that even though the message did come from the Italian city it was not conclusive evidence the missing men had been there.
 Both diplomats Guy Burgess, a former British Embassy official in Washington; and Donald D.. Mclean, head of the Foreign Of- flee American section-know high level American secrets.
 Fear has been expressed in Lon don and Washington that they may have ducked behind the Iron Curtain. The incident put a new strain on British American rela- tiOnS.
 Thousands of detectives and in- telligence agents were engaged in the hunt for Burgess and Mac Lean. It bids fair to be the big gest manhunt in European history.
