Mildew

in Awnings

Youre PLANNING to store your awnings, garden umbrella or

chairs in the cellar this winter, don’t put them away’ without

the precious canvas against mildew and. winter rot.

DEAR JANE JORDAN-—I went with my husband a year before we were married. During the first three monthseof our courtship he drank. Things grew serious between us and I told him he couldn’t have me and whisky, too. He stopped drinking and after nine months we were

married. For eight years we got along fine. Five years ago our baby boy was borm Beaently I've had very seriGis nervous spells and as I always

loved ‘to dance my husband sug-s

gested that we start going to dances which we did. My husband started to take a drink or two. A few times he drank too much. Now he goes out with the boys andicomes back after mid- . night "drunk." This happens about every three weeks or so. Should I leave him? I hate to deprive our son of his ~ father, yet I married with the understanding that there would be no drinking. Would it help if I drank ~ mildly? One’ friend suggested this, Work is very plentiful and I am sure I could make a living for Junior and myself. My husband makes good money and we have a * hice bank account. + I have resolved not to go to dances now. I feel that was a ‘mistake. Don’t you think I should . find other entertainment for us since it encourages drinking to go ‘where there is drinking? Please help me... WORRIED MOTHER, ” ” ”

Answer—Evidently your husband is one of those who cannot. drink ~ socially without overdoing it, but the decision to quit must come from him. You can help but not by any .0f the methods you have men- = tioned. “The first method you mention, that of leaving your husband, is worst of all. You do not want to break up your home or take your kchild away from his father, and ‘when you threaten to do so you only increase his nervous instability, and yours. Instead of helping him you create the need for a drink. The suggestion of your friend that you drink yourself is obviously destructive because it is based on re- \ venge. “You've put me through the wringer. Now I'll show you what it feels like.” How can you help him by making yourself a party to the . very thing you wish to avoid? It is not sensible to avoid dances because liquor is served there. ‘The world is full of alcoholic suggestion and the man who wants a drink can get one without going to a party. The nervousness which sent you to dances in search of relief may have more to do with upsetting your husband than the drinkers he met at the party. Your success with him will depend on your attitude toward him. If it is critical, punitive and scornful it will drive him to further excesses to relieve the tension. If it is kind, sympathetic, and full of confidence in his ability to pull himself out of this temporary slump, it will tend to decrease the inner, tension which calls for alcohol. In all your dealings with him avoid the old-fashioned emotional appeal, tears, pleas and threats. Strive for a calm, even attitude of confidence. in him.

colorless paint made especially for the purpose. Applied to any canvas

surface, it insures the fabric against|

mildew as well as making it water repellent. , This is siaportant. for dampness is the lurking place for mildew. Unlike ordinary paint, it doesn’t stiffen the fabric and doesn’t crack after being painted or sprayed on. It is generally best to paint the awnings with the colorless preservative as they hang in position and allow them to dry before taking them down. If this is not possible, remove and place them on a hard surface, such as a basement or garage floor. If oytdoors, use a driveway in preference to grass since any paint will affect the color and growth of a lawn. The paint dries

in an hour or two and a quart will|#

cover about 60 square feet of surface. If the cellar is hot, damp or dark, store canvas articles in the garage, which is generally cool, light and dry, to prevent mildew.

The Question Box

Q—Why did some localities get more sugar for canning than some others? I understood that the allotment for canning ‘was the same all over the United States. A—The allotment was the same all over the United States; one pound to each four quarts of finished fruit plus one additional pound for each member of the family, for making jams and jellies. Differences in the amounts allowed families were due to the fact that local rationing boards must consider not only the amount of fruit which the individual wishes to can, but also the amount each family had left over from the preceding year.

Q—I received a gift of a meat or fish plank for cooking planked steak, etc, but I do not know how to use it.” Can you tell me? A-—The cold plank should be put in a cold oven and gradually heated (plank and oven) to between 450 and 500 degrees F. Then remove the plank from the oven, oll it thoroughly, place the fish or the meat on the plank, return to the oven and cook the required time. The meat or fish so cooked can be placed on the table without being transferred to a platter. The planks usually are made with grooves that hold juices from the fish or meat, or from the

By MRS. GAYNOR MADDOX Times Special Writer

EVERY WOMAN responsible for keeping her family well fed and healthy in war time should understand the vital part protein foods play in nutrition. From ‘The National Nutrition,” written by Morris Fishbein, M. D., comes the following: “The proteins which come from animal bodies have the highest biological values—notably, meat, milk and eggs.”

Seek Teachers For Red Cross

Study Course

Lack of teachers is: depriving more than 250 Indianapolis housewives of instruction in Red Cross nutrition ‘ courses for which they have registered, according to Mrs. Aneta Beadle Vogler, director of the Red Cross nutrition department. At least 15 volunteer instructors are needed, Mrs. Vogler said today. They are particularly in demand for day classes, because most of the ' registered housewives can attend only at thgt time. Women who are college gradugtes, who majored in foods and who have taught home economics within the past four years are eligible to become instructors. Qualified women should contact Mrs. Vogler at Red Cross. headquarters, second floor, Chamber of Commerce bldg. In connection with. her plea for volunteers, Mrs. Vogler pointed out that a “proper understanding of foods is especially essential under war conditions when health is more important than at any other time.” Five new nutrition classes have been scheduled. They are as follows: Hotel Lincoln, starting Monday at 7 p. m.; school 58, Linwood ave. and New York st. starting Thursday at 9 a. m.; school 1, 3614 E. 36th st., starting Oct. 28 at 10 a. m.; school 67, 3615 W. Walnut st., Oct. 22 at 1:15 p. m. The fifth class started Monday at school 82, 4700 English ave, ” » » The Indianapolis chapter of the Red Cross hext week will sponsor a surgical dressing institute t@ assist other Indiana chapters in starting their surgical dressing programs. Representatives from 14 chapters will attend the institute Monday through Wednesday, at the center, 243 E. Ohio st. Mrs. R. W. Murray

Frank Hoke, volunteer chairman of production for the chapter, will be in charge. # zon An urgent request for all Marion county women possessing Red Cross yarn to send in the knitted articles immediately has been issued by Mrs. Frank Hoke, chairman. Women who are unable to com-

Clothespins, Lines Need Adequate Care

Since “save” is the watchword on the home front, even such small items as clothespins and washlines call for their share of adequate care. A rope washline should be washed at least once a month in the washiag machine, taken down, if possible, between usings; wire lines should be wiped off with a soapy cloth ‘before each use and taken down and wound carefully after clothes are. dried. Clothespin marks on clean clothes mean just that much more work—

|so be careful of clothespins,' too.
