Give Us Brighter Lights
BY Robert Durr

The wife of the president of great power
and light system in the very deep south hired
Negro carpenter-minister to do some repair
work on some buildings she owns
She asked the carpenter-mnister one day
MS Interpretation of that passage in the
Christian Bible which in substance reads: GO
into the highways and byways and compel
them to come in"
BY way of reply our earpenter-minister
told story. He stated that long ago down in
the rurals where he was born and reared to
manhood, they used small tin kerosene oil
lamps for lighting at night and that the mer-
ehants who retailed the lamps did a very good
business. This was because he had a monopoly
on the kerosene lamp market in that neck of
the woods. But one day some fellow came a.
long and sold some members of the commun-
ity an installing an electric lighting system for
his home.
The carpenter-minister says the electric
lights were so much brighter and gave so
much better service that soon almost every
body in the community wanted electric lights

Protestin' Injustice In An Effective Way

BY Lauren White

Something of Juror has been created in
some circles by Indas segregation of white
South Africans in India South Africans must
carry passes in some parts of India, their trav-
els are restricted, and some hotels will not
admit them. The Indians are doing all this in
protest against the South Africans treatment
of Indians.
This writer has always questioned the
savagery of IAN eye for an eye and tooth

of the other cheek is also to be questioned
The strict adherents to both of these philoso-

Those who are too literal with the "eye

always some kind of offense to rectify thus

MODERN FURNITURE.


MRS. M. A. T., Silver Spring)
I have furniture of both
light and dark wood in my
apartment and I can tell you
I much prefer the light. My
living room-dining room
arrangement includes table and
chairs in dining section Of
silver elm, and tables, chairs,
sofa and radio of blond ma
hogany in the living section.
AS a partial "divider" I have
a desk server combination of
walnut sitting perpendicular to
the wall between living and
dining room sections.
In addition I have two white
painted bookcases and two
white flower stands. I have
had many favorable comments
about the harmonious effect
and I feel they go we'll to-
gether.
AS for upkeep, there is
practically no work to keeping
this furniture sparkling read
lily. I use the vacuum cleaner
on the various pieces as clean
and occasionally wipe them
with a cleaning wax.
The silver elm which has a
greyed appearance when new,
does tend to yellow" as time
passes but it is not objection
able.
I have the bedroom furni-
ture of walnut and mahogany.
I am constantly busting and
cleaning off fingermarks,
scratches, white rings. No
more dark furniture for me!
In my Office at school I have
all lined oak at present. In
addition to being much easier
to keep clean, it adds light to
the room.
I wish to thank Mrs. L. j.,
Washington; Mrs. j. L. S.,
Washington; Mrs. w. w. B.,
Washington; Mrs. w. H. P,
Arlington. and Mrs. L. S.,
Washington, for the wonderful
suggestions on the use Of
oregano. It's delicious!

MIAMI BEACH.

(MrS. A. E. A., Washington
For Mrs. NJ. B. j., Arlington:
How very fortunate you are to
be going to such a lovely place!
Contrary to most thinking you
will find it quite comfortable.
Every one wears sun dresses
with boleros, jackets or little
capeS for evening, also shorts
or pedal pushers. No hose is
needed. so take sandals. You
are promptly labeled tourist
If you appear in hat for any
occasion except church.
I would suggest you stay in
the neighborhood of Seventy
first street. The island is only
a few blocks wide at this Sec
ton, so no buildings cut off the
breeze. It is also cheaper and
more neighborly than down.
town. There are shops, drug
stores, newStandS, super mar
kets, post Office and excellent
restaurants within easy walk
ing distance. If you have chill
dren there is municipal play
ground. There are also doctors,
dentists and other professional
people in the immediate area.
The housing Varied from the
ultraswank ocean-front hotel
to the bay-side motel so you
have a wide range.
There is a public ocean beach
at Severlty-third street. Many
of the apartment hotels are
members of private beach clubs
which are maintained for their
guests. This is the type of place
we prefer as they offer rooms.
apartments or efficiency units
for days, weeks, or months.
They have maid service for
daily cleaning and, contrary
to the hotels, she is the only
person to be tipped when you
leave. Our favorite place is
owner-managed and they en-
courage guests to be informal
and get to know the other
guests.
The area offers excellent
bus service to Miami via the
Upper Bay causeway (Seventy-
first street to Normandy Isle)
or through the downtown sec
tion and over Macarthur
causeway. The cost is lower
than here and the service much
faster. Of course, if you go in
your own car, the places you
can see are limitless, but you
will enjoy the place immensely
even if you use public trans
portation. II you have never
been there, its color and beauty
will simply take your breath
away.

CORK FLOORS.
mrs. H. H., Washington

To Mrs. M. B. NJ, Silver
Spring, who inquired about
cork floors for her new home:
We have a home with a cork
floor in the living room in
WeStchester County, N. Y,
where there are a good many
of such floors. where houses
are built on rock with no base
ment but just a crawl space"
under the floor. It may be
good for insulation, but we
have never found a Satisfac-
tory finish for the cork floor
ing. When we bought the
house the cork floor had been
covered with layers of varnish.
We had this sanded off and
tried one finish after another
in vain. We used the different
wakes, including paste wax,
tried Shellac, tried varniSh
again, had in a number Of
floor finishers, experts, etc.;
they couldn't solve our prob
lem. If I remember rightly,
since this was several years
ago, we finally applied 2 coats
of Shellac. The finish scratches
easily and shows white marks
if a chair or other furniture
is moved, and on the whole was
very unsatisfactory. I would
advise Mrs. M. B. N. not to
have the cork floors unless her
contractor or floor man knows
of a suitable finish for the
cork. It's very hard to keep
looking nice.

NEIGHBORLY CHAT

MRS. G. II. S., Arlington
I would like to give a much
belated thanks to the lady
suggesting glass wax for elec-
trical appliances. It has done
wonders for everything in my
kitchen. The recent recipe for
fruit and berry pies from Mrs.
E. E. H. really sounds like the
best I have found regarding
crust, etc. Can hardly wait to
try it.
Now I have a few queries.
Does any one have a recipe for
chocolate icebox pie with a
whipped cream topping? Also,
how does one make really good
whipped cream? Can it be
made from cream off the top
of pasteurized milk?
We have recently become
fond of broiled or baked fish.
Could someone share some of
their recipes with me and what
kind of fish are best suited for
broiling or baking. Is there
any difference between broiled
and baked fish?
Now for a hint: Curry pow
der added to stewed chicken
n, dumplings makes a tasty
dish of an old Southern
favorite.
