Pago Throe Lady Golfe rs Work Smarter - Not Harder POLLUTION, ONE OF THE HOTTEST SUBJECTS of the day, can often be misleading to well meaning people who want to jump on the bandwagon. For instance, glass can be recycled many times. There fore its use is advocated by some in preference to metal cans. Suppose all fruits and vegetables were packed in glass. There’s extra cost in volved in retooling, breakage and shipping weight. These costs will be passed on to the consumer. Often this would be the low-income person who buys canned rather than the more expensive fresh or frozen pro ducts. We aren’t opposed to glass but before going all out against one phase of pollution, we need to get all the facts. # # # WHAT CAUSES REDNESS AROUND BONES of cooked poultry? Is it harmful? It is definitely not harmful, this color is an indication that the bird is very young, about 8 to 9 weeks old, and that it has been frozen. The redness is due to some of the pigments from the bone marrow that have reached the surrounding tissue. FOR “NO GOOF” LAUNDRY, do sort clothes carefully, This may sound old hat to you, but our CountyExtensionofficesget many calls about what to do when a ballpoint pen or lipstick was left in a pocket. If the garment has gone through the dryer, the chances of removing stains are very slim. Another problem is the paper clip, nail or other small sharp object left in a pocket. This can cause mechanical problems with your washer and result in an expensive service call. Watch for that colored sock or other small bright colored item that might accidentally get in with white clothes. When children do the wash, warn them not to put grubbies in the same load with whites. # # # IF YOUNGSTERS GET GUM ON VINYL UPHOLSTERY, carefully scrape off as much as you can. Then apply kero sene or naptha. In case you don’t have either of these, most hair oils or light sewinr machine oil will soften the gum so that it can be re moved. EMBLEM CLUB Plan Guest Day ACTIVITIES Luncheon hostesses for the Ladies Golf Association on Tuesday were Nellie Saito, Sharon Wada and Claudia Tay lor. Guests who were introduced were Lydia Brewer of Yakima, Wash., Joyce Magnuson, Velma Bean, Linda Walker, Linda Utter and Beverly Nysingh. Tuesday, March 30 will be a guest day and any lady in terested in golf is invited. A coffee hour will be held at 11 a.m. during which a style show will be given by Mark and Ericka Hipkins showing the spring golf fashions. Luncheon will be served at noon. Groups lessons will begin the first week in April. HAND KNITTING YARNS ARE FINISHED with a softener for lubrication during knitting. A fabric softener may be added during the final rinse water when laundering hand knitted garments. This restores the original softness. But don’t confuse “fabric softener” with “water softener.” They serve entirely different purposes. Ontario Emblem club met March 8 at the Elks Lodge for regular meeting with minutes of the previous meeting read, and committee reports given. A nominating committee was appointed by President Velma Frazier, Chairman Mary Danielson and Betty Collier. Those nominated from the floor were Kay Widner, Diana Ingalls and De Hunt.
