Hello Homemakers. Ever hear the man of the house say he liked work. As for the odd job around the house he likes to sit >and look at it for hours! We do, too. How often most of us only "look" at odd jobs about the home, which, if accomplished during the winter mon- ths, leave more time for leisure out- doors when the fine weather comes. Screens can be given a fresh coat of paint; porch and lawn chairs fixed with new canvas; kitchen shelves painted, furniture, doors and floors repaired; household linens mended, summer slip covers laundered and so the list goes without end, Our preAent job is rebinding a blan- ket but it seemed to be needed back on the bed Again—and, you know, out of sight, out of mind. TAKE A TIP 7. To tighten a door handle un- screw one end of the knob after loos- ening the small screw found on the shaft. Put a metal washer or ring of wire around the shaft and replace the knob, If handle is still loose add an- other ring or washer, The washer must be large enough to fit over the shaft, but small enough in diameter to go into covered frame. 2. If the knob is loose, remove the screw, tuck in a piece of steel wool land reset the screw. 3. To tighten loose hinges, drive screws farther into the hinge sheaf, If this fails, take out the screws and put either plastic wood or a piece of wood match stock into each hole and reset screws. 4. If the spring on a roller blind is unwound or fails to catch, take it off the holders and fix with a clothes pin and screw Ariyer. Hold the catch on the open end with screw driver as you use clothes pin to wind up the spring. 5. When windows stick, first try rubbing paraffin or heavy floor wax along the length of the groove in which the sashes run. (Wait for dry wea,ther to do this.) 6. For hardened paint 'which keeps a window from moving, use the steel blade of an old kitchen knife. Work the blade up and down in the crack between the sash' and stop. If it is a downstairs window which can be reached from the outside, „run the blade between the frame and the part- ing strip. * * I THE SUGGESTION BOX Mrs, B.
