His firm haa just takcn another biz forward stride by nrchase of the bijr C. C. Mitchell & Company, for fifteen years in the Chicago mo.tgaffe banking business.

Keeping the Kitchen Plumbing in Trim

To keep tha -white kitchen sink free from scratches, it Is wise to protect it by means of a rack made from three strips of wood fastened to two crossbar pieces. If your kettle or pan drops, it cannot hurt the enamel. If the enamel is stained or discolored, rub it with some kerosene and soap, but do not use sharp cleansing powders, as the continuous use of same is bonnd to remove the glossy surface of the porcelain. If there are any stains caused by iron rust or running water from leaking faucets, a little lemon juice will tend to remove same. Nickel faucets should daily be washed with soap suds and dried carefully; be sure not to scour them with some sharp cleanser containing acid or snnd. as this will rub th nickel plating off in a very short time. Brass faucets have to be kept polished all along, or they will-corrode. The stub end ft a lemon or grapefruit rind may be used to clean a brass or copper faucet and remove copper salts. Ee careful not to clog the drain f your sink, but after it Is once clogged, take care to clean It out at once. Open the trap, so that all the foreign matter that might have gathered there can come out into a pail which vou have placed underneath and clean with a long, pliable wire. See to It that there is a small rtrainer over your drain pine, so as :to prevent small matters from fallinr through. After you are through Iwith dishwashing, flash the sink 'with very hot water (or after you

are through with your wash-soap suds), which will dissolve grease which has accumulated on the walls of the drainpipe. Beware, however, ef the frequent use of lye for this purpose, as lye will combine with tb.3 grease, forming a kind of soapy substance, which Is then hard to remove from the pipe wails. In very cold weather, open faucets just enough to let a very small stream of water pass through continuously, so as to avoid freezing. In very severe weather, however, this will not protect you absolutely, and if the pipes are frozen you have to be very careful in thawing them without bursting same. Towels wrung out of very hot water and applied to the pipes might do the trick. If you close the house for the Winter drain all faucts after the water has been shut off, and pour a small quantity of kerosene in the pipes after the water has been all drawn back, so as to avoid the sewer gases from entering through these pipes. Thfn put stoppers in your bathtubs and basins, and your house will not suffer from frozen pipes nor can the sewer gases enter it. It is just as easy to keep a warm stove clean as a cold one. Keep the fire ail Winter long, after once started. After dinner shake the fire half down, fill up with coal, shut off dampers, and in a few minutes' the stove will be cool enough for polishing. Then you may open all dampers and have fire "started again, thus keeping your range clan without letting th3 fire go out

Troop 1 Ksverend Licklider turned the service of the Baptist church Sunday evening entirely over to the Boy Scouts aside from the music by the choir. The meeting opened with Troop 1, led by .Scout Master Gordon, marching down into the front of the church and after taking tho oath of allegiance they repeated the Scout laws and took the Scout oath. Members of the troop acted as ushers and also took up the evening offering. P. J. Mann, a member of the troop committee, then spoke on the past history of Troop 1, and gave a very interesting account of how Troop 1 was the llrst troop organized in the city of Hammond, which was In 1915.

It was organized under the leadership of Kcv. Aiam.j, assisted by Levi Golden. Later, Mr. Golden wii registered as Scout Master and built the

troop up to a membership of C5, but finally gave rip Troop 1 to devote his entire time to Troop 2 at the Christian church. , Then Albert Tosvle, another troop committeeman, spoke on the present status of the troop. He explained the troop organization, present officers and the tacts as regards the interpatrol contests, etc. .'ext came Clarence Martin, another troop committeemah, who ?poke on the future of Troop 1 and outlined the possible activities of lht3 troop and

the support that would be given it by the churcii. The fourth troop committeeman, Cloyd Smith, then spoke on the relation of the Boy Scout troop to the church and Bible school and gave a very clear and convincing talk to the effect that the Ioy Scout troop was really an asset and a supplement to the Sunday school and church work. Mr. Licklider then introduced Bcc.it Executive ticott, who tpoke on the subject of scouting and its future. Mr. Scott first told of the early history of the Boy Scout movement. He told how It originated In England r.ndr Gen. Badin-Powe'.l, being brought to America 11 years ago and organized under the combined efforts of all the thea existing boy organizations. lie next explained the steps a boy

takeg to enter a troop and become a!

Boy Scout, describing the passing of tests and showing how they ultimately work for character building and citizenship training the two great aims of scouting. As to the future of scouting, he pointed out the fnct that at the present rate of growth in the year of 1931 th'-re will he at least one million boys who have had the boy scout training, and the fact that of these boys over live hundred thousand of them would he voters and active citizn.-t of the country. This fact should be an inMiranc against future radicalism and the promise of good citizenship In the years to come. He further stated that the Boy Scout

movement would not fulfil Its mission! in the city of Hammond unless! through Its organization It was able

WTien the daily housework begins to loom like a mountain before the tired housewife, when she finds the old refrain "a woman's work is never done" running unbidden through her brain, it is time for her to pause and think about her physical condition. The chances are that some insidious form of ill health is nudermining her powers to cope with the day's work and is sapping her ambition. Physicians long ago pointed to the fact that some women cannot run the sewing machine by the method of foot-pedaling without subjecting the body to an unnatural strain which shows its bad effects in the nervous system. The Free Westinghouse Electric Sewing Machine is one of the greatest boon3 of our civilization and makes it possible for any woman to operate her sewing machine without sxertion, strain or danger.
