QUESTION:
We havo Just
moved Into our new huma. We
were told to stain our kitchen cabi
nets und then wax them . After
living in the house u month we
found that the cabinets were be
coming stained and m arred by the
w ater splashing on the wood. We
would like to rem ove the wax and
restain und then varnish them Is
there anything we cun use to re
move the wax from the cabinet!
without harm ing the wood?
ANSWER: Turpentine is a sol
vent for wax; use it liberally to re
move all truces of wax. The liquid
is influmuble, so ventilute the
room while working and shut off
all pilot lights und refrigerator. If
you wish to apply »nothCf'atuin of
the sam e color, this can go right
on over the old one, although the
second staining will m ake the
color still darker. If you wish to
lighten the color, you can apply u
wood bleach, on sale a t large
paint stores.
W id e D o g Choice
When it comes to the breed of
. dog a man chooses to accompany
I him afield in search of upland
game birds, the choice is far more
varied than are the kind of birds
sought. For decades, however, the
nobility of the race of bird dogs
has been the pointer and the setter,
with the former having a slight
edge, possibly, in preference.
The stylish, far-ranging pointer
or setter never fails to bring a
j thrill of appreciation to the heart

LYNN SAYS:
These Cookie Making
Tips Help You
Ingredients for cookies will blend
together more readily if they have
beeh allowed to reach room tem
perature. If the dough is too soft
for drop cookies, let it chill until
proper texture is reached.
Fragile cookies keep best in tins,
with waxed paper in between the
layers.
Do not store crisp cookies with
moist ones in the same container,
as the crisp ones will become soggy.
Drop cookie doughs may be
chilled if you do not wish to bake
them all at once. Simply wrap in
waxed paper or store in a well-
covered bowl and refrigerate. Let
soften before using by allowing to
stand at room temperature.
Cookies will bake to a more even
brown if the pans or sheets on
which they are baked are not shiny
surfaced.
When the recipe for cookies calls
for a generous amount of fat, it
is not necessary to grease the
cookie sheet.
These proud parents are 18-
month old German pointers,
owned by Chagrin Fails. Ohio,
residents. The puppies were
three weeks old when these ca
nine champions posed for their
pictures. The German pointer,
long overlooked by the general
scatter-gun addict, is fast coin
ing into widespread popularity
as an efficient complement to
the wing-shot.
ists—finding birds. Speed, grace,
ability, superb assurance, class all
stand out in obvious degree when a
champion pointer or setter is at
work.
But the lesser, unsung breeds of
bird dogs are beginning to come in
for a share of the attention which
rightfully should have been theirs
years ago. Among these are the
German shorthaired pointers, the
Gordon setter, the Brittany spani
els, and even cockers and spring
ers when the game is to be flushed
close to the gun.
All these proven breeds, though
lacking the flash and class of
their swifter, more spectacular
kinsmen, can and will do the job
that is to be done, provided they
are properly trained and carry
within themselves the instinct to
hunt which distinguishes the true
bird dog whatever his breed.

For the angler who contends that
N ot Always 'Luck1
fishing is not always ‘‘95 per cent
luck,” here is some ammunition:
Surveys have shown that the suc
cessful angler, whether he uses it
consciously or subconsciously, is
employing experience and skill,
won through years of engaging in
the sport of fishing, together with
a wealth of “know-how’’ whenever
he comes home with a nice catch
of fish.
These surveys reveal, for in
stance, that the late-summer ang
ler must know, if he is going to
get any results, that best catches
are made in this season from eddy
waters around rocks, logs, root-
wads, and along edges where
plants and cover provide accessible
food. Many fishermen, through in
experience or lack of knowledge,
pass up these places in search for
large, deep pools in which to try
their luck.
How many anglers, for example,
know that in many lakes the late
summer months produce water
stagnation in the lower half of the
water level? The novice angler,
fishing such spots, would be
tempted to fish deep, thinking the
fish would surely be found in the
deeper, cooler waters. As a matter
of fact, however, the contrary is
often the rule, since the fish will be
circulating in the upper 15 feet of
water in such lakes because that is
where they find sufficient oxygen.
As a tip to live-bait fishermen
wishing to determine proper depths
for angling in late summer and
before fall has chilled the surface
waters:
If your minnows die quickly at
the depth you are fishing them,
you are most likely fishing in the
stagnant, or non-oxygenized, water
level and should fish at a consider
ably lesser depth.

TALKING IT OVER.
Quiet, Please!
Some of the ancient taboos of
fisherman seemingly have good
basis in fact and should be ob
served. While it has not been
proved that voices on the stream
bank cause fish to leave, a good
fisherman will take your name off
his list if you persist in talking too
much near the stream. Vibrations
seem to affect fish, too. as does
running up and down the bank,
breaking sticks underfoot, tossing
articles into the water.
