Of course, that happens to everyone. What can be done? One smart homcmakcr, who before marriage was in radio work and conscious of the clock, came up with an idea She makes lists of jobs which take 5 minutes and others that take about 10 minutes - such as, "sew on a shirt button, clean one dresser drawer, pick up tile living room." There's also another list of longer jobs. She says that when the chil dren are around she can't hope to concentrate on any one long job, so, as far as practical, she docs the short jobs. The longer ones she saves for the time children have naps or ate in school. This idea works most of the time and every little bit helps. You'd be surprised how many of the jobs that you put off, actually take only 5 or 10 minutes when you get started doing them. How many limes arc you interrupted because a child can't roach his jacket, or your husband'? lie isn't where he thought he left it?

You can double the usage of closet space for a child by suspending a rod (an old broom handle will do) by two ropes tied to the regular clothes pole. If this rod hangs down 23 inches from the grown-up level, children can easily reach and hang their own everyday clothes; seldom used garments can hang above. Metal rods for this pur pose, which hook over the regular closet pole, are also available In some department stores. As the child grows, you can adjust the height of the rod. If you'd like more practical ideas for stretching space in children's and adult's closets. we'd be glad to send you our Extension bulletin "Ideas for Better Clothes Closets." A free copy is yours by writing Oregon Stale University, Cor vallis. Here's another smart stor age tip. Before you put baby's plastic panties away, dust them with talcum powder. This will help keep them soft and prevent sticking where plastic is folded. Some of these plastics can be machine washed, others can't. The only way to know is check up on the label - and save it for fu ture reference. How do you remove a ball point ink stain? Some of these inks will wash out with soap and water. For most of them, you'll need to sponge the fab ric repeatedly with rubbing alcohol or acetone or nail polish remover. If the fabric is acetate, Ar nel, Dynel or Vcrel, sponge with amyl acetate which you can buy at a drug store. When In doubt about the fabric or the fastness of the dye, test on an Inconspicuous spot.

Powers has won her fight to see that the governor's in Jefferson City is furnished fully with chinaware. Mrs. Powers made it clear uit there would be no cost to taxpayers for a 75 place setting of china with the im print of the Great Seal of Mis souri. Mrs. Powers, who lives in nearby Ladue, had sent let ters to Missouri's 600 honor ary colonels suggesting each donate $2.1 toward the china. Mrs. Powers' husband, an hon orary colonel, quickly wrote his check. Mrs. Power's plan ran into trouble when John W. Ing. lish. Democratic party state chairman, and an honorary colonel too, protested against the solicitation. In a note, Inglish suggested that the money be returned immediately. "I can't understand all the fuss," said Mrs. Powers. She said she had first con tacted Gov. John M. Dalton and had received his bless ing to buy the china. "He (Dalton) was absolutely delighted and suggested I get the letters (to the honor ary colonels) in the mail right wny." Mrs. Powers said. Inglish told Mrs. Powers to call off the project. Mrs. Pow ers said "no." What started Mrs. Powers on the china - buying was a visit to the governor's man sion.
