Spring Cleaning Is Sfill A Drudgery Wholesale Cleaning Seen As Unlikely By GAY PAULEY United Press Women's Editor NEW YORK <UP> - Let's face! it, girls. Spring cleaning is still drudgery even in the outer space age. American ingenuity can build a H-bomb, launch a rocket into orbit and make a synthetic. But to date, it hasn’t found away to eliminate the annual foray against the winters 'collection of dirt from attic to cellar. All it's done is give us some new and improved tools for doing 'the* sk rile 6lcT “back -breaking job. “It would be nice if someday a housewife could just turn a hose on the whole interior,’’ said XC. Fuller, the original Fuller Brush man. “But I doubt if well ever have what you would call wholesale house cleaning It's .too individual a thing, as individual as each of the 45 million women running homes in America.’’

Fuller, chairman of the board of the company bearing his name, came to New York from his Hartford- Conn., headquarters on business and todiscuss the''then” and ‘‘now’’ of house cleaning. The man, whose door-to-door salesmen have been the subject of numerous jokes, cartoons and even a movie, started his career in a sisters home in Somerville, Mass. He recalled that he invented SSO in a supply of horsehair bristle, wire and handles, and sls in a machine of his own design. He worked by gaslight at night and sold brushes the next day. Today, at 73, Fuller has more than 7,000 deaers giving housewives the brush (a free sample) in the United States, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Alaska, and as far away as Australia. “We’ve even sold specil igloo brushes to eskimos,” he said. Fuller estimated the company gives away two million brushes each month. Fuller said that when he started, haff a century ago. housewives needed brushes to clean kerosene lamp chimneys, icebox drains and cuspidors. Th two best selling brushes then were those for cleaning a man's derby and for brushing the mud off the long skirts of the ladies. ___________ ,

Today's best seller, FuOdr said, is, of ail things, the hairbrush. Fuller figured the modern household needs two to three dozen brushes, counting those for personal grooming and house cleaning. “Housecleaning, if you count all sides of it, is the world's biggest business," he said. “I think it always will be.” Thorough Test For Poison Ivy Vaccine Summer Months To test Effectiveness By DELOS SMITH United Press Science Editor NEW YORK (UP) - This summer will tell the tale of whether s c i e n c e now knows enough to make the cool woods, the daisyfilled fields, and the picturesque country roadsides safe for poison ivy sensitive people. Two apparently perfected ways of giving people immunity to the h o r r o r s inflicted by the most treacherous of vegetables, are being used on a truly mass scale for the first time. Both seek to rouse body chemical defenses, as the Salk vaccine provides defense against polio viruses. One way is to inject a little poison ivy into people with a needly. The other is to add a few drops of it to their morning orange juice. Used Over Yean Both have been tried over the years with indifferent success, but neither was free from bugs which prevented it from working in many if not most persons sensitive to poison ivy. The needle method has been made effective by Margaret Strauss, director of the allergy laboratory of the New York University Hospital. After 10 years of experimentation . she learned how to make a poison ivy vaccine that is stable, confers more than a fleeting immunity, is free of “side effects,” and can be injected* into people painlessly. It has been available expert mentally to selected physicians. They tried it in more than 1,000 persons and found it effective in Btder Li v /) NO HANDSHAKING HEM Bake a batch of these crispy ginger cookies. Then watch for she magical disappearing act!

Keep soft cookies in a tightly covered metal or glass container. A small unpared apple in the container will help keep them even more moist. Crisp cookies should be stored in a glass or rpetal container with a loosely fitting cover. . Remember not to atore cr jsp and soft cookies together.

Can Be Injected It now is a “prescription drug” called "Aqua Ivy” which any doctor can, inject into any poison ivy addict. Five weekly injec tions are required the first time it is used. The following summer, a “booster shot” may be enough. The hope is that after three sum mers, immunity will be per- ' manent and no additional “shots’’ will be needed.

The "by-mouth” method seems to have been made more generally effective in the Miiderm Research Laboratories of Philadelphia. Scientists there succeeded in mounting a stable poison ivy extract in all alcohol base. This extract has now oeen tried out on a large number of the poison ivy sensitives and found effective in many — but again, not in all. For six weeks, they put five drops or It In their breakfast milk or orange juice daily, j j After that, they 'sp'iked’ “their j I breakfast beverage three times a I

The extract is now a “prescription drug” called “orval Ivy.” » Driving Suspensions MONTPELIER, Vt.
