If repeated too often, waxy
build-up can create a tainted ap-
pearance and become hard to
remove.
Establishing a method to the
madness of spring cleaning fe-
ver can make light work of te-
dious chores and speed anxious
homemakers on their way to en-
joying the 'season.

Is your rider's engine hard to start?
Does your push-mower• have no power

Frederick H. Jackson
MANAGER (DOC)
While sunny skies and
warmer weather ease the pain of
cabin fever, the signs of spring
also bring on another manta--7
spring cleaning.
Though few 'people look
forward to the task, .the clean-
ing ritual ,has become essential
for maintaining household
harmony.
To ease the pain of the clean-
ing routine and hasten its com-
pletion, a methodical. approach
is best. An orderly cleaning plan
is the first step towards an or-
derly`household.
With this advice in mind, Bon
Ami, the cleaning Product that
has scrubbed up American
homes for almost a decade, of-
fers the following suggestions
for tackling spring, cleaning.
Concentrate your efforts.
Take it one room at a time and
do a thorough job before mov-
ing on.
However, special jobs, such
as washing windows and polish-
ing silver, are best done all at
once, wheri the proper supplies
are available and you have, some
momentum going.
Top-to-bottom is a rule of
thumb for any job, from a single
lamp to a cluttered workroom,
To keep dirt and dust from re-
settling on a just-cleaned sur-
face; dust all furniture from the
top down.
On .a room-size scale, clean
chandeliers, light fixtures and,
pictures first, then work your
way down to tables, chairs, win-
dow sills and, finally, the floor.
Don't be distracted. Before
getting down to the nitty-gritty
business of cleaning a room,
gather up any clutter in a box or
basket, and stash it out of sight.
You'll be less tempted to fool
around with odds and ends
arid more likely to get down to
business.
When you've finished the
job, go back and put the "clut-
ter" in its rightful plaCe.
Come prepared. Put yourself
in. a "clean" frame of mind by
dressing the Tart in old work
clothes and by equipping your-
self with the right supplies. A
large bucket is ideal for holding
' cleansers, rags, sponges and
other tools of the trade.
To make the job more eco-
_ _nomical as well as easier, stock
a multi-purpose cleaner such as
Bon Ami Polishing Cleanser,
which cleans everything from
porcelain to chrome without
leaving a streak.
Don't overdo., Some jobs,
such as waxing the floor or pol-
ishing furniture, need only be
done occasionally.
