Civilian Defense
Stressed By Home
Demonstration Club

At the meeting of the Shawnee
Home Demonstration Club last
Monday night, civilian defense and
what we can do TO prepare for a
nuclear attack were discussed by
club members. Discussions were
lead by Mrs. William Holstein, Civ
ilian Defense Chairman. Mrs. Paul
Buehrle, international Relations
Chairman, and Mrs. Richard Wood
ward, Safety Chairman.
Mrs. Buehrle told the members
what other countries are doing
about civilian defense. An item of
particular interest in her report
was that Russia requires each citii
zen to take % hours of civilian
defense training yearly.
Mrs. Holstein discussed prepar-
edness-what we can do NOW to
prepare for nuclear attack. 1t
would be impossible TO accumulate
the necessary items and prepare a
bomb shelter during the short peri
cd of warning that we would have
before an attack.
Mrs. Woodward discussed alert
and take-cover signals, exactly
what to do when we hear the sig
nails. and what frequencies to dial
on the radio for instructions dur
ing an attack. Copies of this in
formation will be distributed to the
club members.
II was decided by the members
that they would start preparing a
bomb shelter in their Easements.
Their goal before the next meet
ing is to put in their Easements
enough canned goods to last their
families at least two weeks. Each
month they will add necessary
items until their shelter Is COM
plete.

Does adding linseed oil to
outside house paint make 1t
better?" S. F. writes.
Answer-If you buy good
quality paint, it contains all
the oil it should properly
have and adding more does
not improve its quality. The
addition Of one pint Of lin
seed oil to q gallon Of paint
often is done when the paint
is to be used as q primer on

through the paint. Make a
test in a small area first.
If bleeding occurs, you can
then use a stain sealer. Sew
eral brands are available at
the paint store. Most Of
these are very slow drying, so
allow ample time before ap-
plying the paint. Test the
sealer on a small area be-
fore applying it to the entire
house.

Answer-The only out-of-
season apparel that could be
safely stored in this closet is
s deep-sea diving suit. AL
cellars are naturally damp
and clothing stored there is
subject to damage from mil
dew. I suggest that you find

II would like to build q
closet across one end of our
bedroom. Access to it will be
through a pair of sliding
doors. I have some general
ideas about carpentry but
please explain the more i'm
portant details so that I will
not make any serious
blunders." H. C. w. writes.
Answer-You may have
general ideas about carpen-
try but it appears that you
are not verSed in the way
wives share closets with hus-
bands. If you were smart
about this project, you would
build two closets or at least
place a partition down the
center of this one, otherwise
your allotment of space on
that bar will barely be suf-
ficient for one pair of pants.
But let us not meddle with
domestic problems and get
along with the project as you
have requested.
The stud partition is
, simple to build. All parts are
2x4s except the header over
, the door and this should be
two 2x4s spiked together. The
; easy way is to assemble the
s right and left side on the
floor and then raise them
into place, using double
wedges at the top. These as
Semblies must be "a inch less
: than the floor to ceiling
height.
b. Door jambs usually are OBJ
tanned from mill work plants
and are available in a wide
range of sizes. Select the one
that best suits your needs
and frame the opening to
fit, allowing q inch at top
and each side. The jamb
must be perfectly square
when installed. This is done
by adjusting wedges between
the jamb and the framing
before the jamb is nailed in
place.
Plywood is not suitable for
doors since it has a tendency
to warp. Hollow core flush
panel doors are better. Each
door should be about one
inch wider than half the
opening so that there will be
an overlap Of about 2 inches.
Sliding door hardware is
made by several companies.
and each brand has its own
installation instructions. The
track is attached to the top
jamb so that there is 5s-inch
clearance from the facia
board. The hangers are at
tached to each door, two
inches In from the edges. An
adjusting device permits the
doors to be raised or lowered
as necessary.
The doors are suspended
from the track and then the
floor guide Is fastened to the
floor. Place q piece Of card
board between the floor and

Mrs. G. A. M.-We can
think of no use for a cracked
toilet bowl unless. like one
eccentric acquaintance, you
plant flowers in it. It cannot

A. D.-That brown liquid
that appears on the outside

has passed through the walls

It is caused by lack of ade-

MY matchstick draperies

Do you know of any way to

Mrs. P. Y. writes.
AnSwer-In my family.
the problem was solved by
giving the draperies to the
maid. I suspect she threw
them into the garbage. The
prescribed treatment is to
scrub away the stain with a
kitchen cleanser, then use
laundry bleach to remove
any that remains.
Let the wood dry thor
oughly, preferably in the
sun. Wipe the surface with
a liberal amount Of de-
natured alcohol and let this
dry. Finally, paint the dra-
peries with the varnish that
is available in aerosol cans.
A better way is to give the
draperies away or throw
them in the garbage yourself.
