To cure pots and pans of iron, tin or cast AluMinUtri, you just wash them well in sudsy water, rinse, and dry them . thoroughly, then coat all sur- e faces with a salt-free grease. After you have completely greased the utensil, inside and outside, place it in a warm ov- en and leave it for several hours, After the utensil is removed from the oven it should again be washed well, rinsed, and dried thoroughly before it is used or stored. Always make sure these pots and pans are well washed, rins, And dried before they are put away, Iron and tin willruSt if loft damp, and cast aluminum may "pit"., Cast iron,. oast .41', uminum, and tin may be scour- ed with a fine scouring powder,. but tin requires special care to avoid removing the coating which keeps it from rusting, Do not try to remove the tarnish which forms on tin, it's just the result of long use, With cast aluminum pots and pans it is important to avoid extremes of heat, Nigh heat or cold water added to, a hot pan may cause it to buckle. Good utensils will last a long time if they are given proper care. When cooking cheese, keep the heat low. Cheese just needs enough heat to melt and blend with other ingredients. Ottawa, OM. Here's a show, an annual sure-fire smash hit and, the headliners are pretty, shapely and all am Blossoms, that is. The stage-setting is Ottawa, Canada's capital, where you can tiptoe through the tulips for hours because, in Jimmy Put- ante's parlance, they've "got a million of 'em." And when the blossoms are in their full glory the last two weeks in. May, they put on a display unequalled anywhere outside the Netherlands. That figures too, as the bulbs are the gift of a grateful Queen Juliana who spent the World War II years in Ottawa until her Dutch homeland was liberated by Canadian troops. It is during this Maytime pageantry that Ottawa stages its annual Tulip Festival when visitors come from all parts of the continent to savor their magnificence. The festival is the culmina- tion of the spring flower parade which starts around the end of March as the first hardy crocus bud pokes its head above ground. More than 500,000 crocuses form this vanguard. Next come the high-stepping Dear Ann Landers: I decided if you ever did it again I would write and complain. Well, you did it again and I am com- plaining. Please stop advising girls who have had out-of-wedlock babies to tell their fiances the whole story, This is one secret that should be kept locked in the heart. Don't you realize how much damage could be done by such a confession? Don't you know something like this could destroy a man's confidence forever? Not all men are mature enough to accept a girl who has had an- other man's child. Some men might even walk away from a girl because of a thing like that. I had a baby out of wedlock two years ago. Last January I married a wonderful fellow. He doesn't know about my past and I have no plans to tell him. When I become pregnant I want him to have the thrill of think- ing it is my very first baby. So please, Ann Landers, don't deprive a husband of this won- derful thrill, It would be cruel.— A GOOD GIRL WHO LOST HER WAY. Dear Good Girl: So you be- lieve this is one secret that should be kept locked in the heart? And how do you propose to keep the secret locked in the mouths of those Who know about it? Deception is always a poor practice and this variety of de- ception is both unforgivable and extremely risky, If a man is unable to accept a woman Who has had a baby out of wedlock, the time to find out is BEFORE marriage. The man Who would walk away from a girl before marriage for this reason will RUN away from her after marriage. * * Dear Ann Landers: I am writ- ing from the county jail. I am not a criminal or anything like that, It just so happens 2 had a few moving violations which added up to a $118 in fines and I decided to sit it out instead of paying up, The problem is, my girl will not answer. my letters. I have written to her every day for two weeks and every letter has been iihrOted.: x know she `town because a new comer to the tank is a guy I know and he told me he saw her yesterday. I have to do another forty six days and if I don't hear from my girl pretty soon I'll go bugs. Can you help me out?—AL. Dear Al: I know you are leveling because your letter was stamped "Cook County Jail." (Sorry about that). I can't help you OUT but I do hope your girl will write soon, If she has a beef she should wait and settle it with you when you get back into circulation. Dear Ann Landers: Please solve an office mystery, There are four of us women who work in this section. We are all married. The youngest girl has been married less than a year, Whenever she "doodles" it is always her husband's first, middle and last name, She leaves the "doodlings" all over the office. Why does she do this? What does it mean? Any- thing special? — INTERESTED IN PSYCHOLOGY, Dear Interested: It means one of two things. Either she is thinking of her husband or she would like to create the impres- sion that she is thinking of her husband. What is love? How does it differ from sexual attraction?

This method of cooking Is used in Southeast Asia Only limit to poly bag re-use is imagination The square end polythene bags now being introduced for packaging sliced bread can be converted into emergency splash boots at the first drop of rain. All you need are two of these new, extra strong bags and an elestic band for each ankle. They may not weather a long walk, but they will keep your feet dry from house to car. By now, most people have discovered how useful empty plastic bread bags are, and these new bags are particularly handy because of their improv- ed features. They are designed to improve the appearance of the packaged loaf, and the seals down each side square off the bottom to eliminate the pesky pockets where crumbs usually accumulate. The result is a strong, clean bag that is just dandy for any number of uses, once the bread is eaten. Knowing this, some bakeries using the new bag are printing suggested re-uses on the bag itself, such as storing left-overs in the refrigerator and protecting shoes and bottles while travelling. Imaginative people, how- ever, will soon find any num- ber of other uses for the bags. For instance: Place ice cubes in a poly bread bag and tie the bag firm- ly at the top to prevent leak- age. You now have a dispos- able ice pack to keep a picnic lunch cool. Wrap an empty poly bag ov- er the top of the flower pot to prevent the soil from washing away when giving the foliage a bath. The houseplant can then be washed under the kitchen tap or, better still, under the bath- room shower. Blow air into a poly bag and, when fully inflated, tie secure- ly. You now have a good sub- stitute for a rubber balloon, and tougher. If tiny trinkets such as bells are put into the bag be- finale. More than a Million strong and in some 200 Varie" ties, these floral beauties pro- vide a color scale ranging from immaculate white to deep ma" hogany in the public gardens of the city, Far from being formal dis*. plays with blossoms regimented row on row, Ottawa's spring- time extravaganza is rather a spontaneous spectacle, Blooms seem to explode in the grass along winding scenic driveways and the canal that bi- sects the city, around the war memorial at its hub and in its vast parks. Most outstanding display of all is Rockcliffe Park, a photo- grapher's paradise, where the extensive carpet of blooms is broken only by meandering paths. The largest bed is at Dow's Lake, a graduated production of 129,000 blooms planted in a flowing mass to achieve the ul- timate in eyecatching showman. ship. The friendly floral troupe even permits humans to get in- to the act, with festival high- lights including a parade of bands, floats and a beauty queen, fireworks and dancing in the streets. fore-hand, the bouncy "balloon" becomes even more amusing. Try storing newly-polished silver flatware in a poly bag to prevent tarnish, making sure that the bag is sealed airtight. Fresh vegetables like lettuce, celery, cucumbers and radishes will stay crisp much longer if they are carried to the picnic ground in a poly bag. Toss a few ice cubes into the bag just before leaving home, and the salad greens will keep cool for hours. To avoid washing a paint brush which you plan to use again the following day, wrap it tightly in a polythene bag. This will keep the brush moist and flexible. Whatever did we do without plastic bags? Treat your family to apples in pies, tarts, and salads. Keep some for eating out of hand for snacks and desserts, suggest economists at Macdonald Insti- tute, University of Guelph. ,.. ppi.-Nt' bALE ON CHAIRS Now is the time to spruce up for Spring . . .
