The graphics section by
Alan Fern Of the Library Of
Congress is small but very
choice. The ceramics chosen
by the Corcoran's Richard

old and humble craft all the
way up to anybody's defini-
ton Of fine art In the full
sense.
Finally, the visitor may
with great profit study the

More than 1900 National
Merit Scholarships will be
awarded for 1s64-65 academic
year.
The 10th annual merit pro-
gram begins with qualifying

program will select $4,000 high
school students as semifinal-
lists.
Another $4,000 students will
receive letters Of commenda-
/ ton and become eligible for
certain services through the
merit program,
In a student information
bulletin, the National Merit
Scholarship gives In detail the
information that q student
needs to take the merit test.

ory services Of the National

ton. Major industries have

Septic Trouble
Our septic tank has a
large drain field, but after
seven years, black water is
appearing on the surface of
the ground over the drain
tiles. What is the cause Of
this trouble?"-L. L.
Answer: Often, when a
drain field is laid in heavy
clay soil, the absorption of
water into the soil is so slow
that an exceptionally large
drain field is required. An
other frequent cause of this
trouble is the fact that peo-
pie are careless about throw
ing waste kitchen grease into
the sink drain. This grease
will work its way into the
tile field and there prevent
the soil from absorbing the
water. Septic tank troubles
like this one require the
services of an expert.

Since we are charter men,
bers of this cult of back

abetting the movement with
a design for a barbecue that

piles of bricks and concrete

gether by anyone who re-
membered how he stacked his

This one will test your
knowledge of bricklaying. If
you live in an area where
stones of varying sizes are
plentiful, these can be sub
stituted for the bricks and
the effect should be more at
tractive.

without cracking. and will
then settle into place when
the earth thaws. In more Sc
