How To Pamper
Your Husbands Pipe
APP Newsfeatures

Every once in a while an in
dustrious wife will go too far in
cleaning up her husbands para
phernalia One horrible example
was the girl who boiled her hus-
bands favorite pipe and soaked it
in detergent to get it spotlessly
clean.
Whatever happens. resist the
urge to tamper with your hus-
bands pipes unless you know the
formula. But if you insist. here's
the way experts care for pipes.
1. Tap the bowl gently in your
palm 10 remove stale tobacco mot
on the edge of a hard surface).
2. Separate the pipe into two
parts bowl and mouthpiece.
3. Push pipe cleaner or two
through stem and mouthpiece to
clean out stale tobacco and mois-
ture.
4. Scrape excess carbon depos-
its on bowl with reamer, leaving
a cooling film of carbon about the
thickness of a thin dime.
5. Revive briar luster by rubbing
against the side of your nose. (Skin
oil helps to impart a sheen.)
6. Assemble and stand pipe,
bowl down, in rack with a fresh,
dry cleaner through mouthpiece
and stem. Never hang a pipe with
the stem up.)
Additional steps may be employ
ed for cleaning the new type filter
brush pipes, says Morris Levinson,
president of kaywoodie Company.
He advises.
Clean these pipes by unscrew-
ing the bowl from the metal base,
cleaning out dirt with cleansing
tissue. Remove filter brush and
wash out with lukewarm water.

pies Progressive Party denoted
ex-Prime Minister Cheddi Jagan
and his wife yesterday and the
Jagans walked out of a party
conference. Mrs. Jagan was born
in the United States.
The conference adopted a mo-
ton of mo confidence" in the
executive committee Jagan had
headed as party leader" and
named a new interim committee.
Former party Chairman L. F.
S. Burnham was named party
leader, replacing Jagan, and DR..
j. T. Lachhman Singh became
party chairman. Jagan was
pushed down to first vice chair
man.
Mrs. Jagan lost her key post
of general secretary to Jai Ma
rine Singh, while she was named
party treasurer.
All the party officers except
Mrs. Jagan were members of
Jagan's cabinet which the British
government ousted in October,
1853, charging that the PPP lead
ers were plotting to turn the
British colony into a Communist
state.

The Muffat Toccata, a work

have come as surprise to those
who think of a Toccata as a
showpiece of speed and bril-
lance.
OF the three Frenchmen on
yesterdays list, Arthur Honeg-
ger alone has found fame as a
composer in this country. The
names of Andre Caplet and
Charles Koechlin crop up fire.
quently, mainly in accounts of
happenings in Europe, for, until
their deaths, they were among
the leaders of musical life in
France.
Caplet and Koechlin show evi-
dence of training in the thor
ough tradition of the French
conservatory. Although their
styles differ decidedly, both show
little ability to go beyond the
most tentative personal express
sion. Nevertheless the music is
agreeable and, in contrast with
much of the musical padding
one often hears in church, it is
constructed with taste and eDl
pert craftsmanship.
