Abby : This counselor needs a cure for his prejudice

DEAR ABBY: I am a straight “A” high school student (girl) who has always wanted to be a nurse. When I told my high school counselor that I had chosen nursing, he seemed disappointed, and asked, “Why?” 1 told him I wanted to help people, and he said, “With your brains, you should consider medicine; all a nurse does is carry bedpans and follow the doctor’s orders.” Now l m confused. What is your opinion? PLANNING MY FUTURE DEAR PLANNING: Nursing is one of the most interesting and rewarding professions a caring person could choose. As a nurse, you may indeed carry a bedpan; but you will also comfort a frightened child, calm and reassure an anxious patient, alert a physician to a change in a patient's condition, teach people how to care for themselves, and much, much more. And you can do these in a variety of settings hospitals, clinics, physicians’ offices, schools, public health agencies and in private practice. Talk with your school nurse or contact a school of

Heloise l Clean electric blankets for storage

HELLO! Hope you have a lot of sunshine in your day today! Spring is such a wonderful time of year, even if it means giving the house its annual attie-to-basement or wall-to-wall cleaning and getting all that winter stuff ready for storage. One thing you most definitely want to put out of sight is your electric blanket, right? It sure came in handy when you were shivery, but it’s not appreciated right now. Before you pack it away, make sure it’s clean so no little winged critters decide to feast on it during the summer. You have a couple of choices.

First, you can take it to a professional dry cleaner don’t use one of those coinoperated, self-service places that won’t do. The solvent in a coin-operated machine can cause damage to the wiring, resulting in possible electrical shock or fire. A professional dry cleaner knows the proper way to handle those electrical parts. In other words, electric blankets should never be dry cleaned by you in a coinoperated machine! Second, you can wash the blanket yourself. Disconnect the control from the blanket and shake the blanket to remove any dust. I run the vacuum cleaner hose over

both sides. This sucks up most of the loose dirt and lint. Fill the washing machine with warm water (about 100 degrees), add an adequate amount of detergent, and be sure it’s all dissolved before putting in the blanket. To make sure, it’s a good idea to let the machine agitate a few minutes to thoroughly mix the soap before putting the blanket in. Once you put the blanket in the washer, don’t let it agitate for more than three minutes. Run through a short spin cycle and gently “press” the remaining water out by hand. Fill the machine with water again and rinse for a few seconds, drain the machine

and again use a short spin cycle, removing the excess water by hand. Drape the blanket over two parallel clothes lines to air dry, smoothing out the edges and corners. DO NOT put the blanket in your dryer. This too can damage the wiring. If you prefer to hand wash the blanket, you can do it in the bathtub by soaking the blanket for about 30 minutes, depending on how soiled it is. Swish the blanket around every few minutes to loosen the soil. Rinse thoroughly. A plunger comes in handy when washing by hand but be gentle! Treat that blanket with tender loving care.
