like to have them in the ma
tural brass finish. Can any
one tell me how to remove the
remainder of the plating? !
understand is is rather costly
to have the work done.
MEAT AND CANDY Their
MOMETER: FREEZER;
ALBUQUERQUE.
MRS. F. G. A., Mt. Rdinier)
For Mrs. E. A. S.. Kensing-
ton: Do you stick the meat
thermometer way down into
your meat? I found by plac-
ing it deep into the roasts
near the bottom, the roast
would be done when the Their
mCmeter said so. Test your
candy thermometer by using
it in a pan of boiling water
to see if it registers properly
t212 degreeS). If it does. per-
haps you haven't placed it
deep enough in the candy mix
lures. Hope this helps you. I
use thermometers a great deal
and seem to have good results.
For Mrs. P. G. c., Alexan-
drla: We own a seventeen Gu
bic foot upright freezer which
serves our family of three
quite adequately. 1t would
undoubtedly be ample space
for four. We feel that an up
right freezer is not only a
space saver, but the contents
are far more accessible. The
only pro I can think of for
the chest-type freezer is that
1t is cheaper.
For Mrs. C. O.. Arlington,
about her request concerning
Albuquerque, New Mexico:
Yes, there are sandstorms,
but only for a short time dur
ing the spring. My husband
and have lived there off and
on for six years. We love it
there and hope to go back.
The Chamber of Commerce is
surprisingly accurate. The
climate is exhilarating and
there are many places of in
terest in and near Albuquer-
que People are friendly. Food.
rent and clothing are all
lower than in this area. I
would be glad to give you more
information if you care to
contact me through RICH.

My little boy received a car
molding set for Christmas. BY
mixing some powder from the
set with water. a plaster of
some sort is made which
hardens very quickly. My little
dear mixed this stuff in his
silver cup and it is as hard as
a rock and impossible to re-
move. 1 hate to discard the
cup. Could any one please
come to my rescue?
