Main MAIL TRIBUNE ; Have White Now, where should .a person go for money to finance his White Christmas?. Here is a bit of advice: Get acquainted .with the cred it services offered by stores, loan companies, banks and other financial institutions in your' community. Find out how much you will pay for their services and ntst what those services are Are they'merely g-oing to' hand over some money or ' some goods? What will they do to you if things get tough? Will they help you? Will your payment record be appreciated? You may not need credit or want to buy on time; yet. there are important reason why you should establish a good credit record for yourself.- Who got nylons first . when V-E und V-J' days came. along? Charge, account customers. Why? The store operators knew their charge-account customers and had no way of learning the names, let alone the addresses, of their cash 'customers. It's as simple as that. Does the charge account or installment buyer always get preference over the cash buyer? Not necessarily.

Here' are some suggestions from Dennison's designers which can serve .to in spire you to many attractive variations. To Your Christmas . buy a television set- fof cash' and your aerial needs fixing The. service you get will depend on the size and ability of your dealer's service organization. If that is good .there will be no d(lay iii getting the aerial fixed. But there is one point to rcmem - ber: If the dealer offers you a finance plan "backed by . a re putable bank or finance com pany, you can be sure that- his service organization has been carefully examined and judged adequate to serve his customers. No bank or finance company wants to have payments' held up because of a poor dealer service organization. Who Gels Help? Who gets financial help fast est when he runs into a series of tough breaks? It's the person whose character, integrity and past payment records prove that he is a good- credit risk. If no snch previous record is avail able, it is much harder to judge character and capacity to meet obligations. ' It costs money to make these 'credit privileges available to you. And in some places these privileges will cost you more than in others. The cash you get and the total-amount of the monthly payments will pin the cost down for you. After that, it's tip to you to decide where you get the most for your money where Santa Claus will help you make it a White Christmas at lowest cost. Ice Cubes Have Numerous Uses ... Do you think- ice cubes are made: just for tall, cool-tinkling beverages? You're in for a surprise. . Ice. brought dramatically to the forefront by the new auto matic iceerver refrigerator, has uses you probably never dream ed of. Of course, . increased quanti ties of -easier-to-handle ice find their greatest use in preparation of appetizers, relishes, salads, entrees and desserts, but many other household uses are re ported. Ice cubes may. be used to "skini the grease" from .gravy or a tew. When ice is dropped into the hot liquid, surplus grease collects eround the cube and may be easily lifted out. House plants may be watered without fuss and muss bv dmD ping a few pieces of ice fnto the flower pots-. When cubes melt, the plants are watered; no drip ping around the pot. . . An ice cube wrapped In a washcloth and held, against closed eyelids for 10 minutes daily, helps relax the" eyes and relieve' strain. A hot w;a'shcloth jnay -be used 'before, the- ice js applied. Then, of course, there's the tried-and-true ice pack.'- It re lieves headaches, fevers apd soreness. It-.can also be used as a facial- astringent.

Do you ever have to forego the pleasure of a shower when you want one? Do you have to- plan your housework around your hot water supply? Do you sometimes -have to postpone doing the dishes or the laundry because you lack hot water? If your answer to any of tiiese questions is ''yes," then - you have an outdated water heater. Putting up with it any longer will not only ' be aggravating, it's false economy. Overwork ing tfur heater takes years of f its life. And it adds greatly to your operating costs. Increasing use of home laun dry and automatic dishwashing equipment has brought with it a need for larger size water heaters in most homes and more important, a need for hot ter water.' These appliances do their best work with water at a temperature of from 140 to 160 ! decrees Plan for Future r When you pick out a repl.-ice- ; ment for vour old water heiitpr. plan for the future as well as the- present. A properly sized tank -is one. which is large enough to provide a margin of extra capacity to meet maxi mum current as well as possible future demands. Your final selection may de pend on where you want to in stall your heater. The house wife today is" no longer limited to a big. white cylinder. Water heater, manufacturers have' be come color - conscious, even shape-conscious. In many lines, the customer can choose from a variety of trim colors to fit the decor of the kitchen,, base ment or utility room. If you want. the heater in the kitchen, you can get an attrac tive counter-top model. If you want it out of the .way in some odd utility room corner, you can buy a square one. Handy Husband May Build Dream Kitchen If your husband is not afraid, of .work and is 'handy with tools you may -be able to get that dream kitchen for a lot less money than you'd think. Today's emphasis on build ins, stack-oirs, and dozens of other short cuts to "loniorrow's kitch en" is made to order for a man with "do-it-yourself" inclina tions. Some dealers have recognized that high casts of professional installation are a drawback to sales and' have launched all-out campaigns to encourage home owners to. tackle installation themselves. Much of it can be done by non-professionals at substantial savings. .But don't try any "do-it-yourself" electrical wiring, gas con nections or plumbing. These are jobs for qualified experts. Many localities require that these spe cialists be licensed. Amateur work may jeopardize your in surance as well as create a fire or safety hazard. . Liquid Detergents Safe for Laundry Early this year an entirely new class of laundry and house hold cleaning product made its appearance the heavy-duty liquid detergent. The new liquid, synthetic detergents are .safe for all laundry but will- remove dif ficult stains better than powder products. According' to manu facturers, the new liq-uids also have the abilityto restore nylon lingerie, yet are effective- for household tasks like cleaning .walls and. stoves. Manufacturers urge that par ticular attention be paid to in structions. For- example, most of them point out that too. much of any product interferes, with proper washing, strains washing machine motors- and is difficult to rinse'out, leaving clothes 'dull looking and stiff feeling. . wonderful Christmas present happy Christmas morning.

GO iJZ$h 5s You'd Better Ge Acquainted Points in Buying Hot Supposing you've decided the family should give itself a. White Christmas gift a much needed new gas water heater. Do you know what size to buy? They range in size from 30 to 100 gallons. The size you buy should be determined by two things: The amount of hpt water you need and the re covery capacity of the heater. Recovery capacity means the ability of the heater to replenish-hot water as fast . as it's used. With a fact-recovery heat er you can use. a smaller tank. This will save you money on purchase price, installation, maintenance and operating costs. Besides, it will take up less space. Many 30-gallon gas-fired wat er heaters will recover their, en tire capacity in about an hour. They give more hot water per hour than any other kind of automatic heater, says the American Gas Assn.. even in cluding heaters twice as large. ' Gas water heaters will turn off and on automatically. And there is never any danger their hot water supply will be cut off by power failures or delivery curtailments. TUere are many automatic gas tanks that have diaHike con trols enabling you to obtain in stantly the very high tempera tures required for automatic dishwashing and laundering. Gas heaters are equally at home in the kitchen, concealed in closets or shown counter-top ACCENT ON SPEED If it's speed you want, gas range manufacturers now offer high speed giant burners of up to 20.000 BTXi's, making them the fastest - on the market. If you count the seconds in brew ing a morning pot of coffee: in bringing water to a fast boil, for deep fat frying, canning and. preserving, then you will find these high speed burners the ideal answer, the American Gas Association points out. . presents A Christmas Special Sty led in Steel you $045 11 save ly) On This 66" Deluxe Twin-Bowl Model ,. jj .lL , -:- T ? . . : " NOW NOTHING DOWN Convenient Monthly Terms at Your Youngstown Kitchen Center SMITH DYIIGE LUMBER CO. 8th & Fir Street Phone 2-7166 with the Finance, Manager.'

Two-in-One Wall Oven Useful Gift ; A two-in-one wall oven that broils and bakes at the same time j is bne of the new spa0e-sa.ving I electric appliances that Santa j might be able to get into his pack without too much trouble. j Kitchen pla'nmng experts point , out that an oven like this will j help solve space problems in j small kitchens or in any kitchen : with limited usable wall space.
