Pessimism is the red light that stops evervthinET %/ OYou will notice that one feat u r e distinguishing America from less progressive areas abroad is that we are basically an optimistic people. We have learned to hope for the "impossible," and then set out to make it come true. Courtesy, like the air in a tire, eases many a jolt and saves many a sore spot.

Electric fuses are designed for protection against fire damage to your home and electrical appliances. In event a short circuit occurs anywhere in your home and provided the fuses are of the proper size and haven't been tampered with; the fuse will blow, thus effecting a stoppage of electrical current. With the current off your home is safe. On the other hand if a faulty fuse is rigged or tampered with so that it will not blow, you have taken the lives of your family in your own hands. Fuses are very inexpensive. Twenty (20) Amp. fuses, such as recommended for plug in receptacles, light fix tures, etc. sell for only 7c each. The Thirty (30) Amp size, recommended on 220 volt stove and water heaters, are the same price. Economy is a virtue; but false economy of rigging a fuse to save a few pennies is fool hardy. For the safety of your love ones, please do not attempt to rig a fuse in your home. It i ? r r? U V* <-? ?*? ^ JOIJ t W Ul if l IIIC JJI 1LC yuu 111<J V have to pay.

EfFSTta ?i By Dorcus C< CLEANLINE5 That we use more soap in this country than in any other may be a tribute to parents for teaching their children the importance of cleanliness. We have stressed cleanliness not only in promoting good health but as a prerequisite to personal attractiveness. This is a sound practice because our present rociety offers considerable economic and social advantages to those who have a clean, wholesome appearance. Since the habit is launched in babyhood, it should be but small effort to have your growing child take to water?to have his cake of soap and fun, too. Frequent bathing, which not only promotes good health but is a sound beauty habit, is a child's first introduction to good grooming. Unfortunately, serious bathtub accidents do occur. Reports of child deaths by drowning are sufficiently frequent to warn every parent. Small children need to be supervised during the entire bath, and even the child of five or six should not be left alone without nerinrlie checks. Another hazard is that children may attempt to manipulate the hot and cold faucets to regular temperature. But if the water feels pleasant, the child is less likely to be tempted bv faucets. So after you have regulated the temperature to your satisfaction let your child test it himself before bathing. If the child is too young to leave unattended, his bath will keep the busy mother OCTOBER IS, 1956 Leaders Meet 1 Mrs. Land presided at the business meeting and plans were made to taKe an tne Camp Fire, Blue Birds, and Horizon clubs to Donaldson Air Base, in Greenville, on September 28th.

O Id VjKCA I away from her household tasks, but a little planning may reveal ways of using the time to advantage. This may, for example, provide you with just the privacy and length of time to give your face its daily cleaning. Keeping your child clean can be made pleasant if your first rule is not to rush or hurry his bath, a fast scrub Ding ana quicK aunKing in the tub are no fun. The daily bath offers your child a chance to relax after the day's play, away from other children, also helping to prepare him for a good night's sleep. It is important enough to warrant plenty of time. Remember, too, that one of the best disease preventatives is a cake of soap. Unclean bodeis attract disease, so it is a cheap "doctor bill" to buy a cake of soap. People who thinketh bv the inch and talketh bv the yard should be kicketh by the foot. The doctor felt of the patient's purse and announced there was no hope. iliisz "Think how a mother kangaroo must hate a rainy day when the kids can't play outHide!"
