Order in Kitchen Found
Vital to Self-Respect
By Joan Patterson, Extension
Specialist in Home Furnishings,
Oregon State College.
The maintenance of order and
cleanliness in the kitchen is not
only essential to the self-respect of
the homemaker and the well-being
of her family, but is an economy
measure in that it helps to keep
equipment in good condition. While
there are many good cleaners on
the market, there are few kitchen
cleaning jobs that will not respond
to some of the materials ordinarily
on hand in most homes. Here are
a few suggestions:
Wood surfaces, Including uncov
ered floors, woodwork, shelves, ta
bles and other furniture require
frequent cleaning, but their care is
made easier if they are well fin
ished with enamel, oil stain, spar
varnish or linseed oil.
Painted and enameled woods may
be cleaned with mild soap and wa
ter to which Is added a small
amount of turpentine or household
ammonia.
Varnished or oiled surfaces may
be cleaned with a cloth wrung out
of 1 quart boiling water, 3 table
spoons linseed oil, 1 tablespoon tur
pentine. Water should be used
sparingly on such finishes and only
mild soap.
Enameled stoves should never be
washed while warm as this may
crack the enamel. A daily wiping
with a cloth wrung from soapy wa
ter will keep the enamel in good
condition. A little baking soda or
kerosene oil applied with a cloth
will remove discolorations which
do not respond with soap. Never
use gritty cleaners on enameled
surfaces.
Wood or coal stoves should be
wiped frequently with cloth or soft
paper. Rub occasionally with a
cloth moistened with a few drops
of kerosene or light lubricating oil.
If blacking Is used, it Is best ap
plied sparingly to a cleaned, slightly
warm stove and then rubbed brisk
ly and thoroughly with a dry brush.
When soap and water fail to keep
the sink clean, use a little kerosene
or baking soda. The drain must
be kept clear with thorough daily
freshening with hot water or a
commercial drain cleaning prepar
ation may be used if it becomes
stopped or clogged.
Ice refrigerators need cleaning
once a month or oftener. Racks,
shelves and interior may be washed
with warm water to which either
baking or washing soda has been
added. Scald removable parts. Dry
all thoroughly. The drain pipe can
be cleaned with a long, special brush
then flushed out with boiling water
and soda.
It is best to defrost mechanical
refrigerators according to the man
ufacturer's instructions. Following
the defrosting, the entire interior
should be washed with cold water
containing baking soda, then dried
with a clean cloth.
RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT.
In memory of our departed bro
ther, Silas Edward Moore, who
died March 27, 1936.
Once again a brother Mason, hav
ing completed the designs written
for him on life's trestle board, has
passed through the portals of eter
nity and entered the Grand Lodge
of the New Jerusalem and hath re
ceived his reward, the white stone
with the new name written thereon
And whereas, the all-wise and
merciful Master of the Universe
has called from labor to refresh
ments our beloved and respected
brother, he having been a true and
faithful member of our beloved Or
der, therefore be It
Resolved, that lone Lodge No
120, A. F. & A. M. of lone, Oregon,
In testimony of her loss, drape its
charter In mourning for thirty days,
and that we tender to the family
of our deceased brother our sincere
condolence in their deep affliction
and that a copy of these resolutions
be sent to the family.

Great Men
Many great men of the past have
not been recognized as being great
until many years after their death,
One of these men was William
Shakespeare. His life was that of
a common man in England, with
no special occupation, except hold
ing horses for English lords and
ladies.
His plays were written to enter
tain the people of the "pit" who
were only the common people.
When he entered the field of writ
ing drama, he had no regard for
the future, and little did he realize
that he would be remembered for
ever for his remarkable works in
writing.
Men who are Bimilar to Shake
speare would strive to do their work
well and would not let discourage
ment enter their everyday life. He
has set an example for all men who
wish to be successful in life.
Mark Twain was another example
of great men. He strived to im
prove his character from the veiy
first and made a success of it His
spirit was built of the very fabric
of truth, and he used only common
sense in his writings.
Like these men, everyone has a
chance In life. We should make
the best of all tasks set before us
and try to leave our "footprints In
the sands of time."
H.H.S.
Heppner Band to Enter Contest j
Twenty-five members of the
Heppner school band wlil leave by
automobile early Friday morning
for Corvallis, where they will par
ticipate in the state band contest
This will be the second year of com
petition for the local band. A very
creditable showing was made last
year, and it is felt that this year the
band will better their last year's
performance.
All schools participating are
grouped, according to their size, in
one of four classes, A. B. C. or D.
Because of its size, the Hepnner
band will enter class D. Last year
Burns was the winner in this di
vision. If a band of B, C, or D class wins
first place for three successive
years, it is automatically graduated
to the next class. If a school is
champion in A class competition
for three successive years, its priv
ilege of taking part in the state con
test is revoked for one year.
The support of the community
has been so enthusiastic, that prac -
tically all the money necessary for
the expenses of the trip has been
raised by the benefit dance spon
sored by the Elks, the proceeds o
which were supplemented by a do
nation from the Woolgrowers" aux
iliary. Good keep, a good time, and an
excellent opportunity to awaken a
deeper appreciation of music are
all assured to participants in the
band ocntest
Mr. Harold W. Buhman, director
of the band, will leave today for
Corvallis in order to make final ar
rangements for his proteges.
The students who will make the
trip are: trumpets, Charles Cox,

many are truly beautiful if cut and

synthetic or simulated stones are
made of ground quartz, four parts,
red lead five parts and potassium
carbonate one part This is melted,
fused and allowed to cool slowly
and with a little coloring matter
becomes rubies, sapphires and even
diamonds. Their appearance Is us
ually nearly perfect but their spe
cific hardness compares with glass.
We have some quartz. When pure
or free of all impurities it Is rock
crystal. Many jewels are quartz.
Amethist is quartz with a small
amount of manganese, rose quartz
has a small amount of titanium,
and cats eye is quartz containing
small fibres of asbestos.
The commonest stone is chalce
dony and this in turn covers car
nelian (light red), jasper (dark
red), chrysophase (light green),
plasma (dark green), flint (brown),
and agates. Agates are divided into
onyx, sardonix and petrified wood.
Agates have a hardness of seven,
they are quite plentful within a
radius of five or six miles of Peters
(Opal) Butte and were probably
thrown out thru some volcanic out
burst When visiting the mountains,
keep your eyes peeled, you may pick
up a stone well worth cutting.
