Take in the Whole Family
Observation-Disclosures

Battle of the Budget" It will be
sent with the compliments of
this newspaper, to any reader
who encloSeS a stamped, self
addressed envelope. 1t gives de-
tailed instructions for organizing
your family. and putting it on a
buSiness-like basis. Many fami-
lies have tried budget and
given it up after a short time,
because they made it too elab-
crate or too rigid. This bulletin
gives common-sense suggestions.
You'll want very simple ac-
count book. You can get one
free from many banks, insurance
companies, finance corporations.
and other sources. or you may
pay a small sum for one at a
variety store.
Take in the whole family,
when you make out a budget.
Every one has a responsibility.
Don't be influenced by how your
neighborS or your parents are
living Build your own plan to
fit your own combination of de-
sires and income. A family coun-
Gil of this kind can be made Just
as interesting as the average
radio or TV program-and much
more profitable. To find out, in
the process, that the family is
really unit desiring the good CT
all rather than the greedy pleas
ure of each; that happiness is
won by groups far oftener than
by individuals; and that real
hospitality need not be expensive
are some of the by-products Of
such a family council.

Modern Marriage
By Dr.. Paul Popenoe

Did you resolve last year to
put your family finances on a
sound basis? Did you economic,
even scrimp here and there? And
now, with income tax time at
hand. do you find yourself in the
red" and wondering where the
money went? Shake. fellow
member of a very large club.
Shake, also with Mrs. L., who
gives us this report:
1--WE have the security of a
steady job for my husband. but
there isn't rapid promotion in it,
and the children are costing us
more every year. I feel respon-
sible when we run behind, flnan-
cially. because I spend most of
the money, but I don't spend a
cent foolishly and we don't even
have some of the things that we
really need"
I suspect that nine families
out of every 10 would say the
same thing, Mrs. L. The United
States Bureau of Labor Statistics
got information about the posi-
ton of 1888 families in 81 cit
les of all sizes. After paying
taxes the average family had
$4,000 to spend during the year.
1t actually spent $4,700. Does
that sound familiar? The $400
deficit was made up by digging
into savings or going into debt.
Does that sound familiar, too?

many other families to do is to

STAIN ON FURNITUREi
HAIR PROBLEM.

mrs. M. S., East RiDerdGle)
I have blond mahogany
furniture in my living room
and bedroom. My table lamps
in the living room have felt
across the base to prevent
scratching. However, there is
now an. orange stain on the
tables under the lamps. Also,
in my bedroom, I have a port
able radio with 4 small rub
Der feet standing on one Of
my end tables, and they have
left 4 round orange stains on
the furniture. Also, the table
under the radio has turned
color. I use wax. lanolin pol
ish on this furniture, but it
doesn't remove the stains. Can
anyone help?
My second problem con-
Germs my Is months old
daughter. She has very curly,
fine hair and I can't seem to
be able to get a ribbon to stay
in her hair. If any RICH read
err has had this problem and
solved it I would appreciate
hearing from her.

RECONDITION BED?
THEATER GROUP?
CLUB INFORMATION.

mrs. E. L. s., jr., Washington
My eldest child has been
sleeping in our four poster
double bed ever since the birth
Of our second child. Now we
have decided to store the bed
until such time as we can buy
a house. However, after q
years use. my beautiful ma
hogany bed is an absolute
wreck and ! am wondering If
any kind readers can suggest
ways to recondition 1t for fur
ther use. Not only is it
scratched in many places but
the scrolled part of the posts
are filled with an ointment
that contains fish oil. Short
of using a knife to scrape every
intricate detail, am at a loss
as to how to remove this fish
oil which has stuck like glue.
Also, one Of my friends mem
toned seeing an article an
nouncing the tryouts for peo-
pie interested In forming an
amateur theatrical group. It
mentioned the name OF George
town, although the club is not
going under the name Of the
Georgetown Players or any
thing similar. If any one can
remember this article. I would
greatly appreciate knowing
details.
To the lady who wrote in
asking for suggestions for her
club, if I can be Of any help
at this late date, I will be very
glad to give you the particulars
on club which / have recently
organized. May ] also suggest
at this time that she and any
one else interested in clubs,
write to Miss Betty Carter.

ASPHALT TILE PROBLEM?
M. G. r.. College Park

IN. G. r., College Park
I do hope that some one who
has had experience at remov-
ing asphalt tile will come to
my help. We laid our tile our
selves and carelessly laid
many the wrong side up. I
hope this may also serve as a
warning to enthusiastic anna
teur tile layers who might
make the same mistake. Our
choice was one of the lighter
colors and it was almost i'm
possible to tell which was the
right side. They did not ap-
pear to be right side up in the
box. There are several large
patches where all the tiles are
on the wrong side and there
are also individual wrong sides
scattered among the rest.
Now that the floor has been
waxed these tiles are very OBJ
vious and I do hope that there
is some way to replace them
without running the good ones

Several months ago ! pur-
chased a lovely new refrigef-

removed they left yellow
marks which I have been un-
able to get off. Can any one

Pierre Duval, who has smooth,
pleasant voice, sings to his own
piano or accordian accompaniment.
Many Of the compositions are his
own. with interesting melodies and
reminiscent Of the Paris he grew
Iup in.
In the dimly lighted room with
its unusual space" decorations
and driftwood and bamboo decor,
Pierre Duval sings his delightful
arrangements Of contemporary
music, skilfully weaving a mood OF
Iightness and charm. There is Tilt
enough in his style for brightness
and gaiety yet strength and rhy.
tim TO provide something more
than is usually found In cocktail
and dinner music.
The continental sophistication OF
Pierre Duval's music is unobstru.
sive yet unique and compelling. The
young Partisan has sounder mus.
