Parents of blind children
often feel frightened, helpless
and frustrated in their efforts
o help their handicapped sons
and daughters. 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. During the day-long

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 .
Smart Homemakers Tell Us:
To keep rim of a plate from
becoming messy while you I
frost a cake, try this. Lay
strips of waxed paper on the
plate, place the cake on the
paper. After you finish
spreading frosting, g e n 1 1 v
ease out the paper strips, leav
ing a neat and clean area
around the cake.
