Automatic Furniture Manufacture Means New Material, Lower Costs BY WILLIAM H. MEYERS United Press Correspondent Chicago U.R) The day may come when housewives will get their new furniture from ma chines which consume raw logs at one end and turn out almost finished chairs and tables at the other. G. Maurice Hill, vice-president of Drexel Furniture Co., Drexel, N.C., told at the recent home fur nishings shows here of research being conducted by the. indus try to provide homes with better furniture at less cost.

"But it'll be a much better, happier, far more comfortable and much more beautiful way of life." The dream of furniture mak ers, he said, is to achieve a de gree of automation comparable to that enjoyed by appliance manufacturers whose machines virtually gobble up steel ingots and disgorge finished refrigera tors, washers and ranges. But to enjoy the benefits of cheaper, faster-made furniture the homemaker must be willing to take into her home products .which are more standardized than at present or which are made up of standard units into various pieces, Hill said. It will be up to the advertis ers, promotion men and mer chandisers to convince Mrs. America that she can have a prettier and more comfortable home by using the new ma terials.. Meanwhile, research work ers are constantly studying new methods of manufacture. Plastic materials made of wood chips hold great promise as do the metals and various STUDENTS!

"If the" housewife will only give them a fair trial, rather than demanding 'traditional' features, she'll find that her family's comfort will be greatly enhanced," Hill said. FRUIT CUP New York (U.R) Fresh fruits now coming to most' markets provide variety in spring menus. For instance, fresh pineapple and cantaloupe may : be com bined in fruit cup, either for an opening course or dessert. Cut the pineapple in wedges and the cantaloupe into balls with a melon-ball cutter. Mix with sugar and fresh lime juice, using half as much lime juice as sugar. Chill before serving and garnish with mint. Burning trash and brush any where near forests or grasslands can be dangerous; guard against wild fires. By ELIZABETH HURIOCK. PH.D. think about what is in store for them when the big day finally comes and goes. Then they real ize that their old lives are over and new ones are ready to begin. Those who go on with their education, in college or in some special training school, may feel that there will be no real ad justment for them to make, that they are merely going on from where they left off. This, how ever, is not the case. Each step higher in the educational ladder means new adjustments and new attitudes toward the work ahead. For those whose education is coming to an end, the adjust ments necessary will be even greater. Everything they do will be new and the whole atmos phere of the place in which they find themselves will be dif ferent. Even those who remain at home will find that adjust ments must be made, that they are no longer "school boys" or "schoolgirls." Suggestions for Adjutiments Several suggestions may help make these adjustments easier: 1. Accept the fact that you are not the important person that you have been during the past year in your role as "sen ior." You are now the most in experienced person in your new world and you must start to build up from the bottom of the ladder. 2. Recognize that the path ahead is going to be hard and that you cannot expect people to help you as you did when you were a child. You will have to solve your problems alone and learn to take the blame when you deserve it. 3. Recognize the fact that you are now expected to dress and behave like an older person. If you want to succeed in whatever lies ahead of you, your chances will be greatly improved if you grow up and act your age instead of clinging to the patterns you have used in the past. LETTERS FROM READERS Summer Let-Down: "My "chil dren have all had a hard winter of illnesses and hard work at school. Now that the summer vacation is coming, I am afraid they will have a terrific let down as we are not going le be able io go away as we usually do. Any suggestions?" (A) No matter where you are, there will be plenty to keep your children occupied if. you plan things ahead. However, be careful not to plan so much that they will feel as rushed as they do doing the school year. Sum mer is a good time to learn new skills, such as sports, cooking, sewing, and typing. It offers time to see people and to do things that one rarely can squeeze in during the winter. Most important of all, it offers an opportunity to read the books and magazines one never gets around to reading during the busy winter. Helping Bride: "My daughter is to be married this month. When the returns from her wedding trip, should I offer to help her get her new apartment in order?" (A). If your .home responsibili ties make it possible, I am sure she will , welcome your help. Volunteer to help her during the day (when she will be alone. In the evenings and over the week ends, when her husband is at home, it would be better to leave the young people alone to work out their plans for their new home. Exercise for Elderly: "My fa ther is in his 60s and likes to play golf. Is this wise at his age?" (A) Your father's doctor can tell him if it is wise or unwise. If he is in good physical condi tion, the exercise should be helpful, provided he doesn't overdo it or exercise too much in the heat of the day. It cer tainly would be better for his morale to get out and exercise than to be forced to sit around and feel sorry for .himself. (COPYRIGHT 1955, GENERAL FEATURES CORP.)
