Margaret Rhodes
Honored On 18th
Birthday Anniversary

When one reaches a 18th birth
day it's something to be proud of
and something you wish to share
with your friends. Mrs. Margaret
Rhodes, 1924 Clinton Av. was the
honored one on Tuesday, October
IS, when a wide circle of friends
responded to the invitation by her
daughter, Mrs. Thomas M. Jones,
for a birthday party and open
house in celebration of the occa-
sion. The hours were from to 7
pm.
The autumn motif was carried
out in decorations. The dining table
was beautiful with a centerpiece
of yellow, brown and green fall
flowers and on either side candle
sticks holding yellow and white
candles. The center of attraction
was the beautiful birthday cake
which was baked and decorated by
Mrs. Leota Perkins. 1t was frosted
in white with pink Tosebuds and
inscribed Happy Birthday to
Mother on Her 18th" in pastel
green, and was truly a master
piece. A large sheet cake carried
out the same color scheme. An
other sheet cake with peppermint
icing was baked by Mrs. Ida Mae
Young and given as a gift.
During the hours some 100
friends came in to greet the hon.
Gree and to wish her happy birth
day while showering her with
many beautiful gifts, floral bou-
quets, cards, kilograms and cash
tokens, which all added up to a
memorable day for Mrs. Rhodes.
At the death of her husband in
1913, in Louisville, KY, Mrs.
Rhodes came to Minneapolis to
make her home with her daughter
and son-in-law, Mr.. and Mrs.
Thomas M. Jones and has endeared
herself to everyone who has met
her during her residence in Min
neapolis. She is an active member
of St Peters AME church; a MEM
Der of the Stewardess Board and

little token from the honoree.
Others assisting were Mines. Nancy
Allen, Alyne Rhodes, Ida Mae
Young, Mercedes M. Smith, Idella
Wallace, Hattie Lucas, Leota Per-
kins and Thomas M. Jones.

Weather stripping around

Floors: Floor covering in

Noisy equipment: Put it in

vibrating pipes. and secure
loose heating ducts.
Outside noise: The impact
OF noise from the street poses
a tough problem, particularly
during summer when win
dows are open. Trees and
shrubbery will shut of some
street noise and a high, tight
fence shielding the home
from a busy street is a reas-
onably effective noise barrier.
Air conditioning, of course,
will mean the house will be

age. Rubber pads or casters
under chair or table legs
win stop scraping.
Check the plumbing
Bathroom: Flushing toilets,
gurgling pipes, shower and
tub sounds can be disturb
ing and embarrassing. The
bathroom should have snug
fitting doors and drain pipes
should be wrapped in sound
absorbing material. Noisy
toilets may be fixed by re-
placing ballcock with a
noiSeless type and by hav-
ing the flushing mechanism
in proper order. Water
drips can be stopped by re-
placing worn washers.
Rumpus or recreation
room: There is no reason
why the sound generated in
this room should disturb
those in other parts of the
house. Since concrete is a
poor absorber of sound and
the ceiling is usually low, it
might be wise to line walls
with absorbent wall material
set away from the masonry
by wood furring. The cell
ing should be covered with
acouStical tile. Two sets of
doors to form a sound lock
will keep the noise from
spreading to the rest of the
house.
Quiet Those Doors
Bedrooms: The bedroom,
even In the most modern
house, can be restful if fur
nishings are chosen that
trap sound. Rugs and win

sound will help. Insulated
walls and snug doors will
keep noise out.
Doors: Nothing is more

After the rigors Of the
work-a-day world, man turns
homeward for relaxation.
Unfortunately, too often the
noise Of the store, plant and
office-dependent is they are
on the mechanical advances
OF the industrial age-is evi-
dent around the home.
This is tyranny that man
need not suffer. With some
well-directed effort, the home
can be made a place of tran
guilty. This is true whether
you live In a suburban home
or a downtown apartment.
Modern homes tend to be
brighter than most older
homes, but the generous sur
faces Of polished tile, glass
picture windows, enamel and
hard-surfaced furniture,
walls, ceilings and floors re-
fleet sound, causing it to
build UP.
Room by Room
The most effective way to
deal with home noise is by
tackling the various prob
lens room by room. Here are
some suggestions, many Of
which can be undertaken by
the homeowner or resident
at little cost:
Kitchen: The kitchen is
probably the noisiest area in
the home. Not only is it one
OF the busiest rooms, but the
noise generated here bounces
of its hard enamel and
plaster. surfaced counters,
caplnetS, walls, ceilings and
appliances. The kitchen har-
bors a number of gadgets
that add to the noise, along
with the clatter of pots and
pans and dishes.
Usually, appliances are not
noisy when they are new
and in good condition, so
keep them in good repair.
Resilient mats of rubber,
plastic or other material
used to cover drain racks

Then, F. Joseph (Jiggs)

man, moved to amend the
Shackleton motion by casting
the bloc of nine District votes

agreeing to caucus during the
first roll call on what to do
next.
The fight was on. Chairman
w. John Kenney, who came
out for Senator Kennedy, ruled
the amendment out of order.
So Mr.. Donohue turned his
motion into a substitute. The
second came from Robert Ma

delegation to victory in the
primaries on the Humphrey
ticket, stood to say, 81 don't

But Mr.. Rauh insisted a
Humphrey vote now was an
anti-Kennedy vote, pure and
simple. IF I were for Steven
SON or Symington, I'd vote for
the Donohue resolution. I'm for
Kennedy, so I'll vote against
it,"
He pointed to the liberal plat
