These feelings must have been allayed in part for the parents who at tended an institute for pa rents of blind children spon sored in Medford November 3 by members of Crater Lion's auxiliary in cooperation with the Oregon State School for the Blind. The institute was called a demonstration of "living skills" and after it was over, the auxiliary women and staff members of the school con gratulated one another on its evident success. Members of the auxiliary have sponsored such training sessions for the parents of blind children for several years, but this was a departure - a departure which proved noteworthy. The institutes, or training sessions for the parents, were m the beginning held at the school in Salem, Parents were brought to the schools from all parts of Oregon, with the Lions and auxiliary paying their expenses. There they at tended classes and learned how to care for, help and work with their handicapped children. Auxiliary members served as baby sitters for oth er children brought by their parents. Afler a time it was dis covered that some parents could not attend the institute sessions, because of circum stances at their homes. This led to the plan "taking the institutes" to the parents and of holding them in various areas throughout Oregon, and then the idea of the "living skills" institute was devel oped. At the sessions held here the parents watched their sons and daughters, all now attending the school or who formerly attended classes there, demonstrate the "living skills" which they learned. They cooked, ironed, played games and engaged in other activities which some might believe would be virtually im possible for the visually hand icapped.

Electric fry pans with brown stains on the bottom have baffled many of you. When you pour fat from the pan, a little of it probably dribbles down the side. Grease from dishwater gels on Ihe bottom too, if you dunk the pan last after you've washed the dishes. The invisible grease film on the bottom of your fry pan turns brown the next time you heat the pan. The stain is practically im possible to scour off, but it's easy to prevent. Always wash the pan in clean, hot, sudsy water, rinse well and dry thoroughly. Then there'll be no grease film on the outside. Does your wood paneling need sprucing up? The way your neighbor cleans hers may not work for you. How it s cleaned depends on Ihe origin al finish, we're advised by OSU experts on wood finish ing. This applies to natural wood kitchen cabinets too. If panels or cabinets have been waxed, a liquid cleaning wax like you would use on floors is good. A whif of it will tell you if you have the right type - it smells like dry cleaning fluid. This both cleans and waxes, but it has to be buffed. You needn't remove it next time you clean. Cream type wax is also a good cleaner. Don't use self polishing wax on wood panels. If your panels are varnished or lacquered, wipe with a damp (not dripping) cloth or sponge wrung out of sudsy water. Then dry with a clolh. Too much water can cause wood fibers to swell .
