Young Mother Writes:


Mrs. T. r. M, West Hydttsuille
To Mrs. ". r. c., Arlington:
We too have young baby
and. living in an apartment,
have no outdoor clothes lines.
Since our laundry room isn't
the cleanest, ] use the drier
for the baby's clothes. rather
than hang them up. After a
few dryings we found the drier
heat made the stains turn
brown. Since then, on the
white things, I use a bleach
CO, using about one-half
cup to a tub of clothes. Il
have my own washing machine
in the laundry room.) This
seems to take care of the stains
very well--except for some
punch / spilled on an under
shirt. Since l have my own
machine, l put the clothes
through a complete wash-rinse
cycle. then through the cycle
again, using no soap the second
time to make sure all soap and
bleach are removed. AS for
the colored clothes. these get
bleached once a month or so,
and the bleach has not partic-
ularly affected the color. Hope
this helps you.
Now a question: Our baby
threw up on our divan and
after repeated efforts of water
with and without soap and a
couple of cleaning fluids. the
stain of milk and syrup still
remains-quite white. Any
suggestions on removal?
Thanks loads for this COL
umn.

Don't Mix Well

Mrs, /. B., Falls Church
My screened-in porch is just
a few inches off the ground
and I have used one of the
self-drying wakes on it to keep
1t looking clean and shiny.
When 1t rains, the wax be-
comes very sticky and slippery,
due to the fact that it rains
in at floor level.
I am wondering if any Of
you readers have some other
solution. Is there anything else
/ can use on this colored

Mainly Personal

WE THINK WE HAVE
TROUBLES occasionally when one of
our three faithful typesetting ma
chimes gets tired and let's down
temporarily, but our spirits were
buoyed considerably this week read
ing of the trials, troubles and tribu-
lations of the Bridgton News of
Bridgton, Maine, weekly on our ex-
change list.
Henry A. Shorey, editor and pub
Usher of the paper wrote in last
weeks edition that he wasn't sure
earlier in the week that there would
be Bridgton News on the streets
come press day.
"The underpinning at the rear of
the News office which extends out
into Stevens Brook gave way to start
the trouble" wrote Shorey. "Then
the press started slipping in the di-
rection of the brook due to the accent
ed slope Of the floor. The crew had to
keep shortening the pully belt of the
press to keep up with its progress
The Bluffton news. [volume] (Bluffton, Ohio) 1875-current, 1956-01-26

toward the rear of the building but
that problem was finally conquered
by trigging with blocks and bridge
spikes.
However, in the course of the chase,
pneumatic type shock absorber
mechanism on the press got out of
line and was damaged. The bed of the
press slammed back and forth and we
all entertained suspicious that the
last two forms might take right off
through the end of the building.
Securing a replacement part for
our press is about like looking for a
piece of equipment to fit Stanley
Steamer. Even the manufacturer
does not realize that his company
ever made such a press. According
ly, a trip to Portland with the
broken parts was total failure. In
fact, even more so, since we had the
first experience of getting park
ing ticket from very kindly police
woman.

A Handy Tool Is Put To Work

Although the villages tractor equipped with load
ing and digging attachments had already proved itself to the
satisfaction of Buffon officials it made rather dramatic
public demonstration of value last week in the speedy task of
removing from the Main street business area.
The heavy snowfall had created the usual waist high
pyramids of sidewalk shovengs and and sush pushed
by traffic into the cutters made parking difficult Within
just about days time the piles cleared and curbs
open The equipment made short order of big job
Businessmen and others who have been critical in the
past of the villages slow action in freeing Main street curbs
of snow, should have been happy withh prompt service
The task of removal is doubly difficult now that
the state highway departments pow longer

up to the local crew.
Apparently council has put handy tool into the hands
of the street department the form of the tractor and loader
The city fathers be proud of the in which the

more it isn't amss for individuals to let loose word of
precaon to Lee Coon and his street for job nicely
