Visitor (in defense plant) : "Look tut that youngster, the one with ate cropped hair, the cigarette and trousers on. It's hard to tell wheth- er it's a boy or a. girl." War Worker: "She's a girl and ,he's my daughter." Visitor: "My dear, do forgive me. I would never have been so outspoken if T had known yon were her father."

How can I keep a piece of wallpaper for future use and make it fade the same• as that on the wall? A. After papering a room, take a piece of leftover wallpaper and tack it in the attic where it is exposed to light and air, If some- time in the future a patch is needed you will have a piece that is the same color as the paper of the room. Q. How.can. I protect the birds when using the bird bath, and there are- cats in. the neighbor- hood? A. It is a good idea to place the bird bath near a tree if cats are around, as a bird cannot fly far while its feathers are wet. Q. How can I wash feather pillows? A. The feather pillows should be washed on a windy day, as the wind will not only dry the feath- ers quickly but will give them a good stirring. Q. How can I lessen the time when cooking in the double boiler? A. If the water in the bottom pan gets low, use boiling water when refilling it. If cold water is used the food will take much longer to cook. Q. How can I prevent rust on towels caused by hanging diem on nails? A. Give all the nails and hooks on which damp towels or cloths are hung a good coat of enamel, whatever color is in harmony with the wall or room. They will be much more attractive and will also prevent rust. A young corpora], American soldier of a year's army training at home and in England, was dog log a little "pre-figbtnig" on his bike on a recent Sunday after- noon. He met with three friend - 1 r folk --a man, a woman and idieir 17 -year-old daughter. Wrote home the thrilled young "Yankee: "It was the King, .the Queen and Princess Elizabeth, out for a stroll. The Queen spoke e me, and I stopped. We had a very nice oonvelsation, and in - dermal, as no one else was around. They were very inter- ested to know where 1 canna .roan, haw I liked England and the people, and if I had made . :many friends. They are grand people, and we had quite a few loughs.

Af deo' WHAT SCIENCE IS eltIG Quartz Crystal* Number one strategical min- eral problem in the United States at present is a domestic source of supply of quartz crystals ,suit- able for radio equipment and other electrical uses in the war effort, says Science Service. edict is the life line of the arm- ed forces. l3attle movements of soldiers, sailors and air forces depend upon it. Dependable in- struments in which crystals are used must have crystals of the finest quality. Brazil and other South Amer- ican countries are the sources of the present supply. In the United • States there are plenty of quartz oryetal deposits, but satisfactory crystals for electrical uses had not been developed from them in pre-war days. Not all quartz crystals, regard- less of their general resemblance, are usable in electrical work, They must be first cut, then care- fully tested in well-equipped laboratories for thein: electrical properties. To be asable, they should be at least an inch in dia- meter and over two- niches long. They should be clear, and free front fractures an d discolor- ations. Quartz crystals are used in microphones; and as electric filt- ers and oscillators. The so-called piezo-electric quartz crystal vi- brates as an electric charge on its surface oscillates. The con- stancy of the rate of vibration is remarkable. It is more constant than the pendulum on a high grade astronomical clock. A crys- tal of good quality `kept at a con- stant temperature will not vary two seconds in ten clays. It is this reliability that makes it es- sential as an electric oscillator.

Isn't it a mark of good breeding wlmn a stranger who !seethed a question extends a eonrteous reply? 3. llow should a girl announce her engagement if her father is dead? 4. Should a bride writs; a pee_ sane' letter of thank:; for. each wedding 2-ii't she receives? 5. Should one ever refuse to make introdaetions unlees it is ahsolutuIy £ct)poteible to escape doing so? • O. What is the proper way for a woman to thank a man who has given her his seat in a street ear or hue? ANSWERS 1. Yes, if it can be dcne with a glance, but ohe should not finger the saucers, or be con- spicuous in selecting; one that seems to be the largest. 2. Yes, decidedly so. A well-brea person is always courteous in his man- ner of speech. As the ell pro- verb says, "Civil, obliging lan- guage cost hut little, and doth a great real of good. 8. The engagement should be announced in her mother's name. 4. Yes; a Electrieal charges accumulate in clouds, positive at the tops neg- ative on the bottom, states Time Magazine. A spark bursts through the air to another cloud or to the earth lightning. First -comes a faint leader stroke, then a huge discharge builds upward from the earth. The slender core (about the tladdkness of a finger) explodes into a column of fire much greater in diameter. As this heated -Ste cools and contracts, other air rush- es in to fill the space. -riga sudden disturbance makes the thunder- clap. Destruction comes from the speed of . the discharge, not the total amount of electricity; tab quantity of electricity in an aver- age thunderbolt would be worth only a few cents it tamed and me- tered. Avoiding drafts, closing doors and windows will not keep out lightning. It is most likely to hit the chimney. Safest place in the house: the middle or a downstairs room. Telephoues are not unsafe in a thunderstorm. The crackling and tinkling are caused by induction eberges. Thick woods are safe enough, but isolated trees are bolt -catch- ers. Since they are poor conduc- tors, lightning may take the eas- ier way through humans standing near. At.F:N1's Anne:Tear I ; , inrld. coo sweet smoite and probably the best and easi- est way to do this is to write each night before she retirse, acknowledging eery gift she 1v- ccives that clay. 5. No; one who feels this way about introduc- tions will find it diffciult to get along well socially. 6. All that is necessary is to smile and thank him.
