service.
Shiny fixtures and enameled
surfaces can be dulled or
stained within a short time
through improper care or excessive
use of strong or abras
i v e cleaners. While all
household cleaners arc mildly
abrasive, if used in moderation
and with plenty of water
most are not harmful.
Carelessness can be an additional
cause of many
scratches and stains. Scrapping
or banging metal utensils
in the kitchen sink gradually
will scratch and dull
the surface. The finish is then
more susceptible to stains
w h i c h become increasingly
difficult to remove.
Here are a few suggestions
which will help you prolong
the life of plumbing fixtures
in your home:
Don't let food wastes accumulate
in the sink.
Don't use bathtubs, basins
or sinks as catchalls for paint
cans, trash or tools when redecorating.
Never step in a bathtub
with shoes on. Shoe soles
carry hundreds of gritty
particles which can scratch
the enamel.
Don't use sinks or wash
basins as receptacles for photographic
developing solutions.
They leave permanent
stains.
When given proper care
fixtures and porcelain sur
faces will retain luster for an
indefinite number of years.
Rut once the damage has
been done, the best plumber
in town cannot restore the
original finish.
Here are a few suggestions
for removing fixture stains:
Most stains are caused by

ciuis in yuui wain supply.
To clean any plumbing fixture,
regardless of whether it
has an acid-resistant surface,
slice up half a bar of soap in
a quart of hot water. Add two
tablespoons of paint thinner.
Caution: Do not use anything
containing Carbon Tetrachloride.
Apply this solution
to the surface with a stiffbristled
brush to remove
most simple stains.
Paint, and other stainers
are more complicated to remove
and must bo handled
differently to avoid damaging
the fixture's surface.
Hardened paint spots may
be removed with a razor
blade. Be very careful to use
the blade at an angle to avoid
scratching the surface. After
most of the paint has been
scraped off, the remainder
can be removed with an ordinary
household cleaner and
water.
Food or fruit stains may bo
removed with a paste made
of peroxide and equal parts
of cream of tartar and household
cleaner.

held at the Community
House on Wednesday, July 16,
at 2:30 P. M. Mr. Roberts accepted
the plaque not on behalf
of himself but for all employees
and supervisory staff
of the mill. He said. "Retaining
the plaque for the first
two quarters of 1958 will
serve as a challenge to us to
hold it for the third and
fourth quarters as well."
Upon presentation President
Bailey said, "This is the first
time I have had the pleasure
of presenting the plaque
when, in my opinion, it has
been rightfully earned and
deserved." Mr. Bailey also
spoke briefly to the group on
current conditions and problems
confronting the industry.
