What other food -- in such a small, tidy package -- offers quite so much versatility. It's there in the morning on the breakfast table in many. disguises: poached, scram- bled, in omelet form, shirred or baked or fried. Or it's on the lunch table in sandwiches, salads, gelatin molds or simply as a garnish.' The egg also presents iif in many forms at the die ler table. It's in your favorite souffle, Eggs Florentine, in a quiche -or in Eggs Fu Yung. In desserts it reappears in countless formsfrom cus- tards to angel food cake.

The dictionary , defines "emer- gency" ' as "an unforeseen occur- rence; a sudden and urgent occasion for action." Look in on any hospital emer- gency department, especially in the evenings and on weekends, and you'll ° ee a steady stream of pa- tients Whose problems may well have been 'unforeseen, but could hardly be considered urgent: minor cuts and bruises, and assorted aches and pains usually outnumber the genuine emergencies -• the heart attacks, abscesses and. fractures.

But.. not necessarily iv the emergency department of your local hospital. Well then, where do you go? If you need help but don't have a crisis on your hands, you go to your fame ily doctor. But the problem for many of the people who turn to the emergency department with non -urgent prob- •lcros• is that they either don't have a family doctor — or they have one but can't find him, CHILD'S PLAY side of the doctor's regular -office hours: that they don't simply quit when he does. For those who don't have :a fam- ily doctor, it makes good health sense to find one before treatment is really, needed, If you've come from another town where you had a family physician, ask hi m to transfer your records to the new doctor. Find out what services the, new doctor provides and then make sure he knows everything he needs to know about you. if you already have a family doc- tor; youshould be aware of when he's available.

"While* some necklaces can be restrung, often the inex- pensive plastic kind can't be salvaged as. they don't have ` the ;holes for threading or de- pend on special threads. But ;next time such a minor catastrophy happens at your house, put the loose beads in a box and save them for an at- t'active project. Or, for that matter, colorful plastic balls can :be bought inexpensively at hobby supply or novelty shops. Then you have a choice of eolors as well as a size range. Get the type of bauble you specifically want. The other necessary in- gredient is an empty bottle or small cruet. This can be either plastic or glass, and side . can vary by choice. Whether from drugstore or supermarket, a container can be•,tiny or the size in which soft drinks come. Even wine bottles can be used. However, emphasis in home decorating these days seems to be on miniature ornaments. Besides summer blossoms, people enjoy displaying straw flowers and tiny, artificial blooms thatldon't need water- ing or much attention. So make a little bud vase by the process of recycling. White glue or special bonding liquids and an eye for design are the only other needed materials. First, soak off all labels and be certain the bottle is clean and ter. Then decide on the design or pattern that will be most pleasing.

Still, it is sur- prising how two things can be done at once — especially during television commer- cials, for instance. Do be careful and work on a pro- tected surface since the glue is hard to remove if it touches spots other than desired. The results, though, are worth the time.
