REMOVING DECALS.

! from Mrs. II. N. A.. Arlington. J
Mrs. ]. c. K, Washington. De-
natured alcohol will do the trick
Of removing decals beautifully.
Moisten a cloth with denatured
alcohol or rub some over the
tdecal. being sure it is saturated
with it. Leave it. on for a few
minutes. then the decal will
almost peel of in one piece. We
moved into an apartment many
years ago that had II decals
splattered over the cabinets, stove
and refrigerator. We tried every
thing without success and by the
process of elimination, we quite,
by chance, discovered "denatured
alcohol" did the trick. There may
be other things that can remove
decals, but I have not heard Of
them. They can be very stub
born to remove. I hope you find
this hint as successful as we have.

This morning a pamphlet came
to my desk which has some very
interesting information for the
culinary minded. "Rice-The
Most Important Food in the
World" by M. r. Kopmeyer, is
published by the Rice Consumer
Service. Inc, Realty Building,
Louisville. KY. Copies may be had
free on request.
The Importance of rice is based
on the promise that in these crit
ical times he who controls the
supply of rice will control the des-
tiny Of Asia. In most of Asia,
food means rice-a fact which the
Communists know and use to their
advantage. 1t is also a fact that
should be seriously considered by
intelligent people of the Western
world
The pamphlet presents many
examples to bear out this theory.
1t also includes some historical
facts about rice that I found fas-
cinating. The cultivation of rice
is as old as civilization itself-it
has been cultivated from time
immemorial in TROPICAL countries.
According to one authority, cul-
tivated rice, in all its varieties,
originated from a wild plant in
