about half of the crew read these books
and enjoyed them. Which books? With.
out doubt the fiction list was the most
popular, but its quality was such that
almost any choice was a reasonably
memorable reading experience.
Lord Jim,' The Catcher in the
Rye" and THE Red Badge of Courage"
all had great vogue, as did the Stein
beck and Hemingway books. still
remember with pleasure the violent
argument overheard late one nig ht in
the crews messroom over the merits
and faults of the beautiful Brett who
made so many men happy and miser-
able at once in Hemingway's "The Sun
Also Rises"
The non-6ction list had its support
ers, too. Will Durant's Caesar and
Christ" and ''The Age of Faith" had a
surprisingly popular run. Not everyone
who started these books finished them,
but even so they were exposed to
glimpse of new and wonderful world.
The books on the Arctic were under
standably popular, with Hell on Ice
leading the pack.
Science wGS popular
The science series was always active.
You must remember that out of our
crew of 100 only about 40 had been
trained in the nuclear power plant.
The rest were torpedomen, radiomen,
cooks, quartermasters and so on. The
fact that they were manning one of the
Goth century's most glamorous tech
nical creations made them naturally
curious about the field of knowledge
that had created her.
Were there any lasting results!
Although | have been gone from the
Skate for more than year, my duties
as division commander take me back
from time to time and on every visit l
notice the important place that books
occupy in this ship; she has the finest
library of any submarine | know. The
original library cost the Navy Depart
ment between 5000 and $500. I'm
not sure they've ever made a better
investment of your money.

Where fires need to be
fought in isolated places and
water must be brought in by

important. If one assumes a

Man-Made Pearls
Now Rival Beauty
OF Cultured Ones

A new simulated pearl CALLED
"Perle de Mer' has been de-
veloped specifically to fill the
growing demand for fine quail
| ity pearls of larger diameter.
These pearls, which are al
most indistinguishable from the
genuine cultured pearls are SIM
ulated from the finest compo-
nent raw materials under elab-
orately controlled manufacture
ing conditions by the Richelieu
Company, makers of fine jew
elry.
Since oysters may take seven
years or more to produce a fine
quality pearl of large diameter,
few owners of cultured pearl
beds are willing to keep their
investment tied up under water
for that period of time.
In addition, few oysters are
capable of growing pearls over
eight millimeters in size.
The new peals by Richelieu
are produced in just six days
and have the natural innerglow
and iridescence, harder texture
and depth of color that make
cultured pearls so desirable.
For those who can afford
them - fine cultured pearls; 9
nm. 10 nm. and larger sizes
are very much in demand land
in short supply but prices are
as high as $7,500.00.
A single strand of Richelieu's
"Perle de Mer" sells for a frac-
ton of the cost of comparable
sized cultured pearls.
They are available in 8 nm.
to II nm. in uniform strands,
and are also graduated up to
IA nm.

More and More Color Gets

If pastel colors give your

Colors that would have been

materials that makes pastel

Fragile colors such as forget

lose their fragility in ceramic
tile and become as practical as

eliminates many problems of
kitchen upkeep and simultane-

Want to cut down electric
bills that rise every summer be-
cause your air conditioning
units are continuously operat-
ing?
Here are several ways you
can get the best performance
out of your cooling system at
the lowest possible operating
cost:
1. Keep shades or venetian
blinds pulled to prevent suns
rays from coming into the
house.
2. Keep windows and outside
doors closed to curb cool air
from escaping from the house.
3. Keep storm windows in to
prevent warm outside air from
coming into the house.
A. On cool nights, turn off air
conditioning units and open win
doWs.
5. When ,andscaping, arrange
tree paintings to keep house
cool by shading it from suns
rays.
6. When re-roofing, choose a
light colored roofing material.
This will retard heat from pene-
trating the house.
z. Membership around out

vent cool air from leaking"

When cooking on a hot day,
use the kitchen ventilating fan.
A range with all burners going

house.
10. Have filters in air condi-

amount of air that can move
through the unit.
IL. Do your ironing on a cool

the cooling system has the re-

II. Pick the coolest part of

released into the air to cause

The well-scrubbed look may

Water can actually damage
wood furniture, according to Luz
cile Bush. director Of Johnson's
Consumer Service. Water can
cause the grain to swell and
crack, and may cause veneer
failure by softening the glue.
Additional damage can be
caused by the soap residue that
is often difficult to remove and
leaves the surface dull.
Daily busting of furniture is
desirable. and new pushbutton
wakes will remove dust and de
velop a shine all in one. These
may be used on all types OF
furniture, and materials used in
furniture including wood,
leather, Formica, porcelain,
brass, vinyl and marble; for

Cheesecloth, diapers, flannel
or wool cloths are recommend.
ed for busting. Shun coarse or
open-mesh material, synthetic
fabrics or new cloths that may
be sized or linty, Mrs. Bush adj

smeary.
Never let a damp cloth rest
on a wood surface as il may
