Dear Mr., Bates:

We at Carnation Company spent
a great deal of time, effort and
money in sponsoring the Contest
Erwin, Wasey our advertising
agency. worked hard to create
good Contest advertising, promo
ton and publicity But ii was
your newspaper that really put
the Contest across to local par
ents. 1t was your newspaper that
gave the Contest its dramatic in
terest and continuing news story
impact.
l am sure you realize that an an
nual event like the Healthy Ba-
by Contest can do two very i'm
portant jobs: 1t can further your
readers awareness of the fine
work being done by your local
doctors, nurses and hospitals in
the field of infant care, And be-
cause your newspaper played such
a dominant role in the Contest, II
can become an annual looked
forward-to event that will help

Questi0n-HoW can i measure
accurately the amount Of mois-
ture In a crawl type basement
and what are the best steps to
be taken If an excess of moisture
exists?
Answer-A hydrometer or a
humidity indicator is used to
ascertain the amount Of mois-
ture in a given area. These in
struments are usually sold by
dealers handling thermometers.
etc. If the earth under the
house is exposed, a great deal
of the moisture is generally
given of. To counterfeit excess
dampneSs, cover the exposed
earth with a vapor and mois-
ture-proof paper or aluminium
sheets overlapping the sheets at
least six inches. The laps should
be sealed with an asphalt roof
ing cement. The paper on the
outer edges of the area should
lap onto the foundation walls
and be sealed in place with roof
ing cement.
Refinishing Furniture.
Question: have a maple
bedroom set of furniture which
is of a red color and about II
years old. I would like to re-
finish it to obtain blond affect.
Answer-Remove all the finish
down to the bare wood with
paint remover, then bleach out
the color in the wood by apply
ing a hot saturated solution OF
oxalic acid. Apply this literally
and allow to remain overnight.
Rinse thoroughly with clear
water. When the wood is dry,
smooth by rubbing with 10000"
Sandpaper. then wipe of the
dust with turpentine. Local
paint stores sell a variety Of
modern wood stains to give a
blond, platinum or picked effect.
Apply the stain according to
directions and finish with clear
lacquer or two coats Of varnish.
Soiled Asbestos Shingles.
Question-My asbestos shingles
have become stained from rain
water running off the porch
railing, also off the asphalt
single roof. How can I clean
them?
Misunderstanding at the bot
tom, soak the shingles with clear
water, then scrub with one Of
the new detergent powders using
about a quarter cupful in
each pailful of warm water. On
stubborn spots it may be neces-
sary to use securing powder.
