Closing off too many will cause the furnace to quickly cycle on and off repeatedly. This will not only fail to save energy but will also cause continual fluctuations of the house temperature.

BRAMAN Extension Agent Cooking especially when it involves grease, is one of the leading causes of fire in the home. Cooking fires account for 40 per cent of all household fires and more than half of all home fires involving appliances are caused by grease or food igniting. While kitchen fires seldom kill people, they injure individuals and. cause property damage. Homemakers should know how to prevent cooking fires and how to fight thehi when they occur. When cooking with grease, pay close attention and don’t allow it to overheat, especially when deep fat frying. W’atch for grease overflows that can start fires. If you have to leave the stove for some reason, turn the heat down or turn it off. Don’t leave towels or napkins on or near a hot stove. Don’t wear frilly or loose fitting garments that can catch fire easily. Clean carbon and greasy deposits out of the oven using a non-flammable cleaner. Do the same to the stove’s venting hood and its filters and fan. If a grease fire does start be prepared. First of all, don’t panic. Getting excited reduces your ability to think and act properly. If the fire is small, you may be able to smqther the flame with a metal lid. You may also smother it with a handful of baking soda (bicarbonate of soda'. Don’t use baking powder which contains flour or starch and could spread the fire. Never use water on a grease fire as this increases the chance of the fire getting out of hand and spreading. Water also increases the chances of you getting injured because of the fat popping and spattering as water hits it. If a grease fire is a big one or gets out of hand, don’t try to fight it, call for help'from your fire department. Before you start cooking with grease, make sure you know how to prevent grease fires by taking the proper precautions. Never fill any container more than half full of fat; heat fat gradually and avoid overheating; turn skillet and hot handles toward the center of the stove to prevent accidental overturning. If a grease fire does start know how to extinguish it properly. It may also be wisfc to keep a fire extinguisher in or near the kitchen for quick action in stopping cooking fires.

| LOUISA’S ' LETTER @

Dear Louisa, I made the mistake of getting married the month after I finished high school. The boy I married had one more year in college. We are getting along very well at the present, financially, but 1 have a big problem. All of Jim’s--! call him Jim but that is not his name-friends are nice and friendly but they are educated people and half of the time I don’t know what they are talking about. This embarrasses me and makes me feel left out of things. We live in a college town. Do you think it would be a good, idea for me to finish my courses at the college? Jean-Ind. Answer: Taking up your studies at the local college seems to be

my family and friends are.” Mrs. Hurd wants to be of service to people and pets, which to her are the most interesting things. Another reason why she is still working is because, as she stated, “Dr. Zehr makes me feel needed and everyone needs to feel needed.” After working hours, she knits and crochets to relax and feels its “good therapy and can absorb more tension.” She also is involved in the Order of the Eastern Star, the Thursday Night Sewing Club, American Legion Auxiliary, the Milford Senior Citizen’s Club and is a member of the United Methodist Church in Milford. She has two sons, Robert and John Hurd, both of Milford and seven grandchildren. Mrs. Hurd has one sister, Mrs. Eathel Milthaler, living in Dayton, Ohio. One son, Thomas, died in 1947.

an ideal solution to your problem. Even though it might take several years to finish you would find it interesting and it would give you confidence in yourself. While a college course is not always necessary for a person to become educated, it is a great help and a means of getting a better paying job. if the occasion arises. One of the best educated men I ever knew was a man who stepped school at the age of fourteen but he was a reader who met every subject as a challenge. There was nothing one could talk about of which he was ignorant. We continue our education until the day we die-or we should. Louisa. Address letters: Louisa. Box 532,Orangeburg. S.C. 29115
