from contact with hands or

the metal is rinsed and then
polished with a paste MADE
of scratches securing pow
der and water.
Lost Cause
How can I remove veneer
from a table top? Water
damaged the table and part
of the veneer came off but
the rest is stuck tight"
H. M. H.
Answer-It appears quite
obvious that water will re-
move the rest of the veneer.
but what will you do after
you get it off? The wood
beneath the top surface Is
made of scrap material that
cannot be finished. Seems
to us that you can stand q
new table.
Cleaning Stainless Steel
IT have a stainless-steel
built-in range top which I
cannot get clean. 1t looks like
grease is embedded in 1t. Do
you have any suggestionsP"
Mrs. P. c. p.
Answer-It seems that al
most anything passes for
stainless steel that goes into
kitchen appliances. Unless
the quality is too bad, you
should be able to remove
the stains with a metal polish
made for automobile chrome.
Pointing q Door
when painting the intert-
or of a house, how does one
paint a door that connects
rooms having different col
ored woodwork" E. l..
ANSWER: You will. Of
course, paint the face of the
door to match the woodwork
on that side. The lock edge
of the door should be paint
ed the same color as the
woodwork in the room In
which 1t will be when the
door is open. The hinge edge
is painted the color OF the
woodwork In the other room.

to acquire waterfront prop
erty. It does have certain
limitations, particularly for
those people who yearn to
own cabin cruisers, but the
cost is within the proper
range and this is always ap-
pealing.
Before we get into a dis
cusSion of the way to build a
garden pool. we must men,
ton that such a pool can
present q hazard where there
are small children. Keep the
size Of the pool in proportion
to the size of the children
that may come into your
yard.
Except in a formal garden,
the shape Of a pool should
approach shapes that are
found in nature. Distorted
ovalS are the most common
shapes. Avoid designs such as
kidney shapes and crescentS.
Use the garden hose to lay
out a design on the ground
that will fit with the land
Scaping. For the average city
or suburban lot, a pool should
be no more than eight feet
in the largest dimension.
Depth should be between IL
and Is inches, but here re-
member the danger that deep
water presents to children.
The pool should have gent
ly sloping sides. This serves
two purposes. 1t bears more
resemblance to a natural
pool and 1t permits placing
the concrete without the use
of forms.
The pool should have
drainage although many
pools are made without 1t.
Unless you encounter heavy
clay, all that Is needed is a
five-gallon paint can filled
with large stones and IN
verted with the top surface
almost level with the bottom
of the excavation. Punch a
hole in the bottom Of the can
(Which Is now the top) and
insert q short one-inch pipe
nipple. Screw a coupling onto
this nipple and have it posi-
toned so that the top Of the
nipple is level with the top
of the concrete. An extension,
with the threads well lubri-
Gated, Is added to the top OF
the coupling so that the top
Of this pipe will be at the
intended water level height.
The sides and bottom Of
the excavation should be
lined with 6x6-10 steel rein
forcing mesh. You will have
to cut this into relatively
narrow widths so as to form
it. around the irregular sides
of the pool. After the mesh
is in place, the concrete is
applied. For a small pool. it
is more practical to buy the
dry mix to which only water
is added. If you want to do

The corport

One Of the most over
looked areas for comfortable
outdoor living il the carport.
BY its nature, the carport
offers protection from both
the sun and unwanted rain
clouds. It's an ideal spot for
the barbecue pit.
