Prince Charles, 5 Years Old,
Has Exciting Day With Gifts

beth II and the Duke of Edin-
burgh. from Princess Anne, 8,
and other members of the royal
family.
For tea there was a blue iced
sponge cake with five candles.

Charles by the Buckingham
Palace chef.
Greetings from a circle of
young London friends were re-
layed to Windsor. However, the
bulk of the birthday mail re-
manned at Buckingham Palace
in London until the royal family
returns there early next week.
The queen and the duke, who
so far have spent only one of
Charles birthdays with him,
were set to have a family party
at Buckingham Palace today,
but suddenly changed their
plans. They decided instead to
rest at their Sandringham estate
this week end for the gruelling,
six-month Commonwealth tour
they will start November %.
So Charles and his flaxen-
haired sister were sent to spend
the week end at the royal lodge
here with Grandma Queen
Mother Elizabeth.
But there will be a real big
party, with the whole family to-
gether, at Buckingham Palace
next Tuesday.
He'll Get a Real Auto.
The young prince is expected
then to receive his top secret
surprise from his parents, q
spanking red motor car complete
with an electric motor under the
hood. 1t was built specially for
Charles from designs drawn up
by the Duke. But there's a
drawback. With it will go orders

with decaying wood and cement
covers. There was 10 feet of
water in the septic pit where
Jeryl fell and drowned. The pit
discovered yesterday had about

Ridgeways notified police, and
the Silver Hill Fire Department
pumped out the water.
Jeryl was the daughter Of Mr..

Citizenshp--Americsn citizenship, that ie-

Sometimes citizenship calls for much for-.
sight, thought and sacrifice.
Such was the time when Americans CT Jane-

into concentration camps because Of militia
~ necessity.
The American born Japanese and their pa
~ents were put through stiff test of loyalty
a test asked from no other single racial group
in the history of the United States.
Everyone knows how the Japanese proved
their 10, atty.
Citizenship, in addition to supreme sacrifi-
ces, always means participation in civic cf-
fairs. The Japanese Methodist church cho-

Many home craftsmen are do
ing finer work in furniture finish
ing than some professionals, who
can't afford to invest the time
and pains and still stay in busi-
ness. The most intricate tech
niques are now studied and de-
veloped n'the amateurs modern
home workshops.
Yet it is surprising how few
handymen understand the ad-
vantages of wet sanding. Ap-
parently they have not watched
automobile body workers develop
high finishes by using soapy
water in their between-coat abra-
sive work.
This type of sanding with the
new waterproof production pa
pers was recently referred to in
this column. Mention was made
of lubricating oil used on var
nished wood surfaces for wet
sanding, with soap and water
recommended for rubbing down
finishes on metal.
This got a rise out of j. F. r.
of Washington.

who puts Soapy water on metal

"very fine'' production paper.
This sanding is done very light
ly, over only the area of the
blemish, and is continued until
the mar is removed.
The Sanded area is then
stained to match the original
finish. When the stain is dry, a
medium-heavy coat of sealer is
applied. This is allowed to dry
for at least four hours. Then the
area is dry sanded again with
very fine" grade paper on a
rubber sanding block to level the
Sealer.
You are now ready for the top
coat. Since it is very difficult to
blend a damaged area perfectly
with the surrounding surface, it
is usually best to recoat the
whole surface with varnish or
lacquer. When this has dried,
wet sanding begins.
Light lubricating oil is used
for this process with grade "su-
perf1ne" black waterproof sand
paper on a rubber block. This
wet sanding will produce a per-
fectly level and satinlike finish.
If you want a high luster, rub
the entire surface with rotten
stone and oil until you get the
luSter you desire. The surface is
then cleaned with a furniture
polish and cleaner.
Try it.

Drivers of the Seward Vol unteer Ambulance Corps report that twice within the last few days, and several times in the past, the vehicle could not be used because someone had tam pered with the lights, causing the battery to run down com pletely.
 Thursday, upon replying to an emergency call for person who was on the point of death, the machine would not start. It was discovered that children had turned on the lights in the rear and the battery was dead. This had been done since the night before when the ambulance had been put away after just having the battery recharged from the same cause.
