safest rule about candles is to
avoid them. At least keep them
unlighted if combined with Christ
mas greens, flammable plastics,
paper or cotton which have not
been made flame-resistant.
When Going Out to Parties
If you will be partaking in fes-
tivities away from home, do not
leave children unattended. Some.
times elderly people tend to be-
come confused and forgetful and
il is wise not to leave them alone
for long periods of time.
To avoid disappointment in OBJ
tanning sitters, make your ar
rangements early. Have your sit
ter come early enough that you
may give adequate instructions
before leaving.
l. For her protection and the
safety of your loved ones, make
sure she knows how to call police,
fire department and ambulance
service. Tell her, in case of fire,
to get everyone out of the house
before taking any other action.
2. Before leaving, supply her in
writing with your name, address
and telephone number where you
can be reached; the name and
telephone number of your doctor.
3. Show her where to turn on
the lights.
4. Direct her to look in on the
child at intervals after he is in
bed to make sure he is all right.
5. Get home at the appointed
time.
6. Take the sitter to her home.

Cash Market For
Black Walnuis
Set In Columbus

A cash market for black wal
nuts, not developed before now,
will be established in North and
South Carolina this fall.
M. G.. Mann, general manager
of the Farmers Cooperative Ex-
change, said FCX services thro-
ughout the two states will act rs
receiving stations for the wal
nuts. Cash will be paid at the
time of delivery.
While no complete statistics
are available as to the quantity
of walnutS produced in the Car
olinas, Mann said he believed
the FCX could provide a market
for at least one million pounds
before the close Of the season
around December 81.
B, w. Kenyon, Jr., FCX mar
keting director, explained that
the nuts must be handled prop
erly if they are to qualify for
Top prices.
This means. he said, that the
hullS must be removed and the
walnutS thoroughly dried. A test
for dryncSS is that the walnuts
should not weigh over 20 pounds
per one-half buShel after the
hullS are removed. and they
should not stain the hands when
rubbed against dry palms.
Kenyon also pointed out that
there should not be more than
10 blanks per 100 walnutS. A
blank is defined as a walnut
without kernel or with a kern
cl sufficiently damaged to class
ify it as a blank.

Neither. AS soon as the ships

the few head colds and almost
no respiratory diseases cropped
up. The air here is too pure and
too cold to breed germs. Then
we stayed SO busy the men didn't
have a chance to get bored with
each other"
What kept them so busy?
First we had to package 500
tons of equipment for airdrop at
the Pole when the planes re-
turned. Then we had to clear an
airStrip on bay ice for the planes
to operate. Man worked in l2-
hour shifts seven days a week
