It happened when 476 missing persons were traced through the National Enquiry Bureau of the Canadian Red Cross, and re-united with relatives and friends. The Enquiry Bureau operates through Red Cross branches and div- isions all across Canada and through the international association of Red Cross in 70 nations throughout the world. This Bureau performs a lesser- known work of mercy of the Canad- ian Red Cross, but is respected and revered by thousands of people in Canada and many other nations of the world The work of the Enquiry Bur- eau never ceases and since the war has been most active. The migration of hundreds of thousands from nat- ion to nation in the old world and the new has created added duties. An idea of the volume of enquiries is shown in a report issued today. Last year more than 5,000 letters were re- ceived and more than 6,000 were sent out. Added to this, more than 500 trac- ing enquiry forms were sent on to other nations. In addition to regular obligations in the tracing of missing persons the Bureau operates a travel service. It arranges through branches and divis- ions for someone to meet aged and unaccompanied youngsters at point of arrival and departure, in this country and abroad. The work of the Enquiry Bureau is fascinating and challenging and continues until there is a solution and the case is closed. During the re- cent disasters in England. Belgium and the Netherlands the Enquiry Bur- eau was subject to a flood of enquiries as anxious people in all parts of Can- ada wrote, wired or telephoned for news about loved ones, Within hours cables were sent out to the British, Belgian and Dutch Red Cross Societies and news—both good and bad—came trickling in. Whenever and wherever disaster strikes the Enquiry Bureau is an im- portant part of ale Red Cross plan, Hello Homemakers! There are sounds, signs and the smell of spring. Yet, we do not know whether to be- lieve that warmer temperatures are coming for sure.

There are five kinds of wax polish- es available for home use ant, thy!: differ from each other in application. 1. Paste Wax was the original wax for home use auci is the most con- centrated, It should be applied on a clean dry surface and buffed to a smooth satiny sheen. 2, Liquid polishing wax is paste wax thinned to a liquid by a solvent with a naphtha-like odor. Liquid polishing wax removes dirt and --Central Press Canadian natal Sonja Currie, Edmonton, woos the Junior Women's skating title leaves a protective wax coating, which like paste wax requires buffing. 3, Self-polishing wax has a water base, little odor and dries to a bright high sheen without buffing. It should be applied to a clean, dry surface and must be removed oc- casionally with fine steel wool and a detergent. 4. Cream wax is a creamy emulsion consisting of a blend of waxes and a dry-cleaning solvent—as well as a small amount of neutral soap and water which removes certain stains such as sugar and starch. It is recommended for use on furniture, woodwork and equipment such as refrigerators and washing machin- es, On the above mentioned equip- ment it cleans and polishes with a minimum of rubbing. 5. No-rubbing fruniture wax cleans wood, metal and leather surfaces but needs a little wiping to polish. (We have not tried this wax on plastic coverings.) TAKE A TIP 1, Furniture which has polisher on edge of brush so that the weight is not on the brush of brushes, 2. Clean brushes with cleaner every 3 or 4 months, depending on its use. 3. Do not jerk the appliance or force it forward vigorously while in opera- tion. 4, Always turn switch to ''Off" be- fore pulling plug from outlet. 5, Reverse the coiling of the cord to a figure eight wind over the hold- ers. 6. Replace a worn or frayed cord. Mrs. R. A. asks: What are the in. gredients for a, homemade furniture cleaner? Answer: Our neighbour , mixes I tbsp, gum turpentine and 3 tbspa. linseed oil to 1 quart of boiling water. This amount should last fcr months. Mrs. St. C. asks; How do you keep piano keys from yellowing and can they be whitened? Answer: Real ivory keys will dark- en with age. Darkness tends to yellow real ivory and leaving the keyboard open except while cleaning will help. Although it is not wise to expose keys to direct sun, Clean ivory with a cloth moistened with denatured alcohol. Never use soap. Remember, too, that excess moisture loosens the ivory from the key blocks of a piano. Mr. C. C. asks: Can mildew be re- moved from an old book? Answer: Sprinkle French chalk (from drug store) between pages, close the book and leave it for several days. Brush off the chalk. borne from. Wingham General. Hospi- tal last Week.

Apply wax to furniture to se small area with a circular motion. When polishing, first use quick short strokes across the grain and finish with long strokes rubbing with the line of wood. 3. A recent wax on the market cleans and polishes without rubbing to obtain a sheen. Note the direc- tions state wetting a soft cloth with the wax polish and spread over the entire surface and re- moisten cloth before it becomes dry. When dry, buff the surface with a clean cloth, turning the cloth frequently. 4. Paste wax without the naphtha odor is perhaps preferred for much-used surfaces which require a lot of protection. 5. Daily dusting of waxed surfaces enhances the sheen and. prevents a thick layer of gritty dirt which may scratch the finish. 6. Never use an oiled or tieated dust cloth on waxed surfaces. Lintless materials (cheesecloth, flannel or old silk) are the best dusters. 7. A thin layer or application of wax lasts longer than a thick coating. 8. Paste or solf-polishing v.. ax on lin- oleum or wood floorings should be removed before dirt becomes em- bedded in the wax.
