In comparison to this figure. 143 communities have discontinued fluoridation from 1945 to the end of 1963. Of that total 32 communities reinstituted the measure. Referendums to retain fluoridation once instituted or to initiate it in a community have been defeated at the polls in about 60% of the cases. Reasons for this have been covered by extensive studies made by scientists. Anti-fluoridationists have found effective techniques for creating doubts and fears among the electorate.

Off came the coat and there I stood—a daffodil-hued “teenybopper” well past my teens. All eyes were on me as we moved to the dining room. All eyes that is but my husband’s. His were closed. The maitre d’ gawked. “I’m sorry, madam.” he said “we don’t permit pants in THIS establishment.” “Any fool can see this is a dress.” I argued. “Frank Sinatras wife wears outfits like mine all the time.” That led to a 15-minute conference between the maitre d’, the manager, about six waiters

After dinner, we left the hotel and were standing on a street corner looking for a taxi when a pair of hippies—barefoot, bearded, in overalls, wearing beads and earrings—passed us. “Man, I don’t believe it,” said one. This too was discouraging, but I wasn’t giving up—yet. I had put $17 in my yellow bloomers. Maybe the “man on the street” would be more receptive. Next day half a block from the office I strolled out, took off my trench coat—and traffic stopped. Construction worker Oliver Darcy, a native of Ireland in the United States four years, couldn’t believe what he saw ... at first. “Is that the latest fashion!” Would he let his wife wear such?

Dear Heloise: Help! I’ve got a problem. I frequently put soft lead pencils in my shirt pocket. Some of these shirts are the wash-and-wear kind and those marks don’t seem to ever come out. What can I do about this ? Mr. E. • • • * First of all, try a soft eraser. We had the best luck with this. DON’T use water. Erase marks when the material is completely dry. The next best thing we found was the gritty grey soap that many mechanics use. This works beautifully on nylon and dacron (you didn’t say what kind of drip dries yours were!). When you rub the soap into the WET shirt marks, use a soft brush (or toothbrush) and scrub well. Rinse as usual. Our chemist says that you can work detergent into the stains and then rinse it well. If any stain remains, suds with the same detergent and add a few drops of household ammonia and rub-a-dub-dub. Wash and rinse again. Heloise * • * * Dear Heloise: I use a sugar spoon for my children who are too small to use adult soup spoons. While it is shaped like a soup spoon and is larger than the regular ones, they can handle it better than an adult soup spoon. Peg Billings a • • * Letter of Laughter Dear Heloise: . . . and without getting a thing done to show for it—my day has flown out the window. Kire S. a a a a Dear Helose: With three children using one bathroom, it presented a problem after bath time when towels were left strewn on the floor. Everyone bathed, but of course no one left HIS towel on the floor . . . This problem was solved when we bought each child a different set and color of towels. Now when a towel is found on the floor, we know immediately who put it there. W T ith this evidence at hand, there have been fewer towels found on the floor! C. M. S. • • a • Dear Heloise: When a gelatin dessert is needed in a hurry, I use half hot water and stir. For the other half I use ice. Just put cubes in a cup and add cold water to the measuring line. Then stir with a metal spoon and leave it in the container while chilling in the refrigerator. I think the spoon helps speed setting of the gelatin. Ella Summerlyn * • * • Dear Heloise: After washing our ashtrays I find that if I spray just a dab of my cologne in them it does away with cagarette odor. Also leaves a nice aroma in the house for a bit. Mrs. C. H. Voight * • * * Ever tried scented room air freshner in fizz cans? Marvelous and less expensive too. Heloise * • • • Dear Heloise: I have started scrapbooks of newspaper clippings for my preschoolers. I cut out articles on our space projects, the war in Vietnam, current fashions, food
prices and other things of interest. When they read of these things in their schoolbooks, they will have the clippings to refer to. Not only will this make their studies more interesting, but they will also get much enjoyment from the changes in styles, cars, prices, etc., from year to year. If well-preserved, the scrapbooks will make wonderful giftii for their children. Sut Kenhart * * • * Dear Heloise: If you put suet out for the birds, try putting it in one of the strong mesh bags and tying it to the tree limb. The birds can catch their claws on the mesh and have a perch that will enable them to get at the suet.

In Memory
In loving memory of Charles Ezra Newgent Sr., who left us Sept. 26, 1966. One year has passed since that sad day When one we loved was called away. A happy home we once enjoyed How sweet the memory still. But Death has left a loneliness Which the world can never fill. Time helps to ease the sorrow That parting always brings But leaves untouched the memories Of happy, treasured things. So through the days that follow The memories we hold dear Continue blooming in our hearts And keep our loved one near! Sadly missed by wife, children and grandchildren. Mrs. Charles E. Newgent Sr., Mr. and Mrs. Claude Newgent and family, Mr. and Mrs. Carl Berry and family, Mr. and Mrs. Charles E. Newgent Jr. and family.
