In roaring market place, on tran

Let me but find it in my heart to
say
When vagrant wishes beckon me
astray,
"This is my work, my blessing not
my doom;
OF all who live, l am the one by
whom
This work can best be done in the
right way"
Then shall l see it not too great or

To suit my spirit and to prove my

Then shall / cheerful greet the
laboring hours
And cheerful turn when the long
shadows fall
At eventide to play and love and
rest,
Because I know for me. my work
is best.

Rug Laying Tips Given
Putting rug on the floor quick
ly and accurately is really an easy
job.
By using 10 simple tips from the
National Institute of Rug Cleaning
two people can easily lay a rug
and pad at the same time without
the task of removing furniture
from the room
The recommended procedure is /:
1. Decide at which end of the
room you want to begin. Usually
it is simpler to start unrolling
from the end with the least furni-
ture
2. Clear starting end of furniture,
except for large items.
8. Remove fragile things from
remaining pieces.
4. Center padding roll at start
ing end of the room, checking mar
gins carefully. Unroll pad several
feet.
5. Center rug on top of pad. Rug
should overlap end of pad about
one inch.
6. Start unrolling pad and unroll
the rug right behind it. Keep pad
and rug smooth at all times Watch
alignment of rug with floor mar
gins and pad, taking care that the
pad is always covered on both sides.
z. Unroll to the first large piece
of furniture. While one person
lifts one end of furniture, second
pei son unrolls pad and rug under
the lifted end. Repeat with other
end of furniture.
8. Shift light furniture to end of
room that has been covered.
9. Large pieces of furniture
against wall should be moved out
slightly from the wall and tipped
backwards on rear legs while rug
and pad are slid under raised front
legs.
TO- Pads which extend slightly
beyond the unrolled rug may be cut
off with scissors. The edges will
not unravel and the pad is not
damaged by trimming.
PegbOard Makes
Double Duty Closet
Two closets from one! It's poss-
ible, given a little imagination,
some pegboard, and an idea for
designing a closet that will help
make house work as light and con-
venient as possible.
One closet idea is to cover clos
ct walls with pegboard. The peri
forated panels are handy for
mounting all kinds of metal hooks
and holders now readily available
from home supply stores. On the
hooks and holders can be hung,
displayed, or stored almost any
household article of reasonable
weight and size.
/ suggest a handy husband to
measure, cut and fasten the peg
board to the closet walls-and on
all three sides to gain maximum
area.
Still another idea using pegboard
to advantage, is to install it to
divide a closet into two separate
storage areas. This is a way to
transform many home closet into
a neater better organized, and more
useful spot.

PAT LYNCH REQUEST IS TURNED DOWN

Pat Lynch's request for reim- bursement to him for having de- veloped the rock quarry from which rock was being hauled for the small boat harbor, was turned down. -
 Councils decision was based mainly on a letter received from the Bureau of Land Management which stated that MT. Lynch had no remaining rights under the Materials Act sale, and stated further that the land embraced in his former sale is approximately $500 feet from. the area under permit to the City. It further stated that his location of a min ing claim was invalid as the area had been withdrawn since 194l from all forms of appropriation. z
 The letter was tabled as the Councilmen were in agreement that use of the road facilities was by the contractor and not the City.

 il had to do, it. I just had to do 1t, was the quiet comment of Mrs Bob Mahaffey shortly after she kill ed her husband early New Years Day. The fatal shooting occurred in their home on Mission Road. Nlhaifey was the Fish and Wild lie agent for this area

He was hit in the lower part of his arm as he apparently attempted to shield himself. Bones were shattered as the bullet continued on it's course into his body. It is not known how long he lived after wards.
 Mrs. Mahaffey then closed the door, and quietly called Mir. Mahaffey's parents in Seattle. She then related what she had done. Following that, she called Will Troyer, a friend of the family, who is in charge of the Game Management office of the FWS, and told him she wanted him to come over as she needed his help.
