Homeowners today are doing more of their own home modernizing than ever, and the big reason is the new ease of remodeling, using plas tic wall tile. Old-fashioned bathrooms, kitchens, dinettes and other such areas can be converted into brighter, more livable rooms easily and inexpensively by installing plastic wall tile made of polystyrene. Because plastic tile is light weight, a specially constructed support ing wall is not required important in renovating an older home, me may be applied over smooth plaster, plasterboard, plywood, and many other surfaces. It is not satisfactory to "tile" over rough plaster. Wall paper or oil cloth must be removed and paste washed off before tiling. Walls must be true to insure a good job. If wall is not true or has holes, or large cracks, plastering should be done to form a smooth, level surface. After wall is prepared, follow these easy steps: Draw guide lines, using a level, to determine horizontal and vertical starting lines. (Upper left.) , , . Using a mastic trowel, apply mastic (adhesive) smooth y and in suffi cient quantity to insure good coverage on back of tile. Upper "0-) Begin setting tile in middle of wall at top level line, pressing each firmly into place by applying pressure at corners only. After laying a half-dozen horizontal tiles, lay a vertical row to lower edge of surface to be tiled. This provides accurate alignment and makes a neat appear ance. All partial tilcs.then appear in corners. (Lower left.) As each row nears corner, stop tiling before corner tile is set. When several rows have reached this stage, place each corner tile, in turn, down the line. Special tile shapes may be used as finishing touches. After installation, remove excess mastic with soft cloth and BUitauie cleaner. Do not polish until mastic sets. To polish, wipe with soft cloth dipped in warm water to which liquid detergent has been added (one tablespoon per gallon of water). Allow to dry; polish with dry cloth. The'resu'it?

LEGAL INTERPRETATIONS School boards have the poker to adopt supplemental budgets of union high school districts so long as the assessor still has the tax roll and time to make the extension. Other recent opinions by Attorney General Robert Y. Thornton were: A union hgh school district cannot, however, without subse quent hearing and supplemental budget, expend revenues' for any purpose other than the amount estimated and appropriatea in its budeet. the attorney general said. Unless provision is made in the budget a school may not lawfully expend revenues which it had not anticipated. A motor vehicle driver whose liepnse exoires during the period for which it was suspended, must be charged with driving wunoui a license if lie drives his car. The driver cannot be charged with driving while the license is suspended. The secretary of state can sus pend a drivers license for one year for certain traffic violations such as reckless driving.
