OfltCiON WORK SMARTER NOT HARDER By BERNICE STRAWN Oregon Stat University Many parents are concerned because their children seem to like dessert better than their vegetables. Mrs. Roberta Fra sier, family life specialist for OSU Extension service, sug gests that if this is true in your family, take a look at what you've been teaching. If you've used dessert as a reward for eating all the food on his plate or all his vegeta bles, he'll value it highly. If this isn't what you want to teach-take a different ap- proach. Let him have his por tion of dessert whether he . eats all his vegetables or not. This will de-emphasize it. He will be better off in the long run, especially if dessert is well selected. Barbecue clean-up may not be as glamorous as cooking and eating, but there are ways to cut it short. Pick up grills and spits with asbestos mittens as soon as cooking is finished and wipe quickly with a large cloth soaked in cold water, mis will remove most of the Recorder Players Attend Festival jacKsonvuie mi. mio.

Dump left over coals In a bucket of water or put in a tightly covered can to smoth er them. These coals can be re-used. You'll need soap or deter gent, but nature will provide the scouring agent. Add small pebbles to suds and shake to loosen food stuck to deep jars or pots. Smudge on the outside of cooking utensils comes off with a mixture of sand and suds rubbed with a cloth. As a preventative, you might also rub a bar of soap on the out side of the pan before cook ing. For Ideas on foods to cook outdoors, write for our free Extension bulletin, "Outdoor Cookery for the Family." Slate and flagstone patios become dull with wear and weather. Use a penetrating sealer designed for exterior use. This will give luster and make it look like new. Scrub the sealer into the slate or flagstone with a flat brush. Wipe in and take off surplus with a non-linting cloth. This finish is moisture re sistant, forms a tough coating, and helps prevent sanding off of mortar between the pieces. These surfaces can be scrubbed with soap and wa ter, don't need waxing.

Furniture Trend To Traditional By MARGERY McELHENY United Press International Chicago -IUPII- Contempor ary American furniture, once brashly-painted and angular, has acquired a built-in neat ness, graceful lines and a beautiful facade. The last decade has been the "most productive in the history of American furniture designs," said Sanford Wal lack, designer for Basic-Witz. Interviewed during the In ternational Home Furnishings Market here, Wallack said new designs for small rooms meet the need for storage, growing families and beauti ful furniture. The bright paints and boxy lines of modern have been discarded in favor of softened contours, fine cabinet woods and touches of the traditional in moldings, inlays and hard ware. Clinical Look Gone The clinical look has been dropped, even though func tional assets of contemporary have been preserved, such as built-in neatness in cabinet in teriors with specialized com partments for jewelry, shirts, dividers, and odd-size items like handbags. The last 10 years also have given homemakers permanent collections of furniture so new pieces can be added as an adaptation of the open stock china plan. To get maximum use of rooms, furniture has climbed walls the last decade. The ver tical movement has brought a wide array of taller furniture along with shelf and cabinet wall arrangements. This upward trend, said Wallack, takes up compara tively little floor s-pace. "After all, in small rooms, the only place left for furni ture to go is up," he said. To get maximum use from furniture, designers now are emphasizing appearance so bedroom and dining furniture can be used in foyers and even in living rooms. Cabinets and chests with simplified molding treatment, rich inlays and contrasting Sisters Visit In Hornbrook Hornbrook-Recent visitors at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Burket were two of Mrs. Burket's sisters.

FALL HAS ARRIVED IN LaPOINTE'S STORK HOOK Maternity Fashions The meaty hot dogs that are as nourishing as steak woods may be pegged for the bedroom, but often can on used in the living room, as well. "Fine woods and inlays have brought to modern furn iture the warmth and richness it lacked so long," Wallack said. Moldings, inlays, and an tique hardware, all once strictly traditional accents, now are being used in contem porary. IS Convenient Credit We give il'M Green Stamps .COLUMBIAN OPTICAL CO.
