Heloise-
time and the only part that needs to be washed is the cap. Mrs. Richard Rohe • • • • Dear Heloise: I have heard different people make the statement that they would put fabric softener in their last rinse water if they could catch the automatic washer at the right time. When I got my new washer, I stayed at the washer the first time to see how many minutes it took from start until the last rinse, then jotted the time
down.
I then set my timer on my stove so I would know when to add my fabric softener. I do this now every time I want to add fabric softener and it never fails. Mrs. Mona Smith • • • • Mona, doll, your brain was really generating when you figured this out. It is amazing that so many appliances are developed by mechanical geniuses ... to be used by us who are not. And it took you, a housewife, to find out for us. Great! Love, Heloise • • • • Dear Heloise: Instead of using shaving cream on legs and under the arms, try hand lotion when shaving those places. It works smoothly, leaves legs soft and there is no stinging or burning or rinsing afterwards. I just rub the excess lotion in. Mrs. Fred Eder

Small Per Cent Of Corn Planted LAFAYETTE, UPI — Only 15 per cent of the Hoosier corn crop had been planted by the end of last week—but the situation doubtless has improved in the last three days. Robert E. Straszheim, agricultural statistician at Purdue, said in his weekly crop report that wet fields hampered plowing and planting and progress of field work rated 12 days behind normal. The corn crop percentage in the ground compared with 55 per cent average over the last five years, and 25 per cent this time last year. Less than five per cent of the soybean crop has been planted. The five-year average for this time of year is 30 per cent. Winter wheat is 25 per cent headed, well in advance of 15 per cent a year ago but behind the 35 per cent average. There was a decline in soil moisture from a week ago as top-soils began drying at a more rapid rate. But ratings for top-soil moisture remained adequate to mostly surplus while subsoil moisture was adequate
to surplus.
State climatologist L. A. Schaal, in an accompanying report, said rains of the past five weeks “left soils in good condition for those droughty periods of summer that should be
expected.’*
Notes And News Of The County Social Clubs
Notion Enjoys Spring Weather By United Press International Peaceful springweather reigned over most of the nation today, though a few spotty showers and thundershowers lingered early today in the northern plains and Great Lakes area and along the southern Atlantic coast. In the plains, furious winds followed thunderstorms, with gusts up to 74 mph recorded at Rapid City, S. D. Rainfall, however, was light. Scattered rainfall eased Florida’s drought Tuesday, with most of the state getting some much-needed moisture. Temperatures are mild over most of the nation, marking the end of a record cold snap in the East. Readings in New England in the early morning were above freezing for the first time in a week.

Red Rioters Now Staging Strikes HONG KONG UPI — Peking -backed Communists today turned from riots to strikes in their effort to humble the British rulers of Hong Kong. In nearby Macao the Reds renewed their pressure on already chastened Portuguese authorities. The Portuguese capitulated earlier this year to the same kind of demands Peking is now making against Britain. The British have stated they will not bow. A British ban on all unauthorized demonstrations in the crown colony appeared to have put a damper on two weeks of mob violence and rioting. But Communist workers disrupted the colony with a goslow bus strike and the Red newspaper Kuang Pao warned the work slowdown was “only their first action.” In Macao, groups of Communists marched on the senate building to demand that a Chinese municipal employe who ripped down a wall-poster be handed over to them. Communist leaders and Portuguese authorities scheduled meetings to settle the question.
