ElectrolyticMethod !;
Cleaning Silverware
(From Department of Agriculture
Bulletin.)
An easy and effective method of
cleaning tarnished silverware by
boiling In a soda and salt solution
in contact with a clean piece of
aluminum or zinc is recommended
to housewives by the department as
a result of studies made by its spec
ialists in home economics. The nec
essary procedure is so simple that it
may be followed successfully In prac
tically any home.
The cleaning system known as the
electrolytic method has been well
recognized for several years.
lmt the Electrolytic Method Is.
The tarnish which occurs on silver
is not due to oxidation, but is de
pendent entirely upon the action of
sulphur. In most cases the source
of the sulphur causing tarnish is
rubber, wool, foods like eggs, and
the sulphur in the air due to burning
illuminating gas and coal. The elec
trolytic cleaning method depends on
the facts that this tarnish of silver
sulphld is slightly soluble In the hot

Mrs. Henry Terry Elmore of Ashland
will sing at the annual memorial ser
vices of the Ashland lodge of Elks
at their temple hall next Sunday af
ternoon at 2:30 o'clock. Other num
liers will be given by Loveland's or
chestra; Sumner Parker, violinist;
G, L. Rasor, vocalist. Mrs. A, L,
Strickland is the accompanist.
The lodge wishes it understood
that the services are public and that
the citizens of. Ashland and vicinity
are not only welcome, but cordially
invited to be present. Following an
opening number by the orchestra,
there will be brief ritualistic exer
cises by the officers, invocation by
Rev. P. K. Hammond, eulogy of de
parted brothers by A. L. Strickland.
The memorial address is of patri
otic character and the reputation re
cently gained by Mrs. Hanley as a
public speaker is a guarantee that it
will be well worth listening to. Mrs.
Elmore of Ashland has no peer as a
singer, In this region, and those who
have not had the pleasure of hear
ing her should grasp this opportun
ity. Tho ability of Sumner Parker
as a violinist and the splendid bari
tone of Mr. Rasor are also induce
ments to attend. In short, the lodge
has neve. before had so many good
numbers on a program of the kind.
The committee in charge is com
posed of J. K. Choate, Howard Bar
rett and Wilfred Carr. Neat souve
