From My Window-? Restrooms My Eye a- Presbyterian WMS Women Meet In Hensail Church Thyrs., Oct. 1966—-Clinton News-R^cord-^Paga 3 Everybody -has some pet peeve. Some people hate starch in hotel sheets, Others; dislike dining without a white linen cloth spread on the table. Usually I don’t really worry about what bothers other peo ple. Somehow- the thing that bugs them is mostly unimport ant to me. Each to his own quirks, I always say, Live and T Grape Jelly (No Grapes Needed) Cook about four quarts of beets on stove. Strain juice through sjeve and keep hot. Measure out three cups beet juice, 1 pkg. Certo crystals; Bring to a full boil and add: 4 cups sugar 2- teaspoons lemon juice 1 pkg. grape gelatin der. A Boil for six minutes; put in jars and .seal. —-Mrs, Doug Farquhar, • -----------o—-----;— plow- then Auburn Cuties Fourth Meeting AUBURN >— Donna Oham- ney presided for the fourth meeting • of Auburn Cooking Cuties 4-H Clulb at the home of the leader, Mrs. W. Brad nock. After the 4-H pledge the minutes were read., by Ruth Bere. The roll call was an swered1 by each teMing of a dessert' suitable for supper. The girls assisted in the dis cussion on planning good meals and the use of left-over foods. ■How to use meat and meat al ternates, were spoke about and Mrs. Frank Raithby demonstra ted how to make a rice and cheese dish and Mirs. Bradnock assisted ’ the girls making Cheese Fondue. After tasting these dishes the meeting was closed- by repeat ing the 4-H Creed. I'ye always angels fear smart alec Ipt live. The other day though, I list ened to one woman’s pet peeve and realized I had to agree. It is. a delicate subject and one she bet. me I’d never taclde in this, column—but stepped in where to tread, Who '-was the architect, who dreamed up the first ladies washroom? " And why dbesp’t someone smarten up and change the standard idea that women need a ball room in which ito powder their noses but only a yard -square cubicle for the vital operation, ,. Walk into any public Wash room for milady. There before you is a spacious room filled With mirrors and equipped With tables and shelves large enough to hold' seventeen handbags and three steamer trunks. There may even be some easy chairs and two or three 50 lb, antique ashtrays. ' Through, the ornate gold dbor you find a generous corridor lined with sinks- wide enough to bath an elephant. There are soap dispensers, electric dryers', paper towels, waste baskets and more mirrors placed at comfortable intervals to allow freedom of movement. Immediately in front of the necessary stalls in the third ’segment of the ladies wash room, you find a cramped alley. Sometimes this passageway is Wide .enough to accommodate mother and her small daughter standing side by side. Generally it is not, so the tyke must trail behind hanging on to mother’s skirt or barge ahead to a collision with the lady just leaving. Always the door opens the cells. The trick is to and still have room to the door. Once inside, there is no to, deposit a parcel or a purse —’ so these items sit on the tank ready, to drop into the waiting reservoir below. Turn ing around or bending over is a nightmare. When you sit, your Shirley Keller knees are propped firmly gainst the door and your arms pressed close to your sides. There is no possible way ■ tp stand MP again without teeter ing and tottering on the brink of disaster- Getting out vis still another matter. If someone on a rush 'call is frying to beat nature, the situation becomes critical, even desperate. With your hat askew and your makeup smudged, you emerge from the innner sanctum of a public washroom looking,,wery much as though you have come off second best in a wrestling match with an alligator, Please, washroom designers of the world, re-aportion the' measurements of that, public convenience. Reduce the- size of the towel bars if you must, but give us elbow room in the closets.

Well it is if you just RE MEMBER — Although the eggs will be easier to separate cold from the frig, the whites will whip up to a greater volume if you let them warm up to room tem perature before beating.
