THE CHRONICLE, Clinton, S. C., February 6, 1969—7-B DEAR BUD: Those hint-drop
pers have small minds! There’s
nothing in the world wrong with
a brother and sister’s making
a home together.
Dear Sally
BY SALLY SHAW
DEAR SALLY: My fiance keeps
after me to dye my graying hair,
claiming that I’m much too young
at 25 to be going around with
gray hair. I, myself, like my hair
as it is, dress it attractively,
and all my friends and rela
tives say it’s very becoming. So,
do you think I should abide by
my fiance’s wishes? SILVER
THREADS.
DEAR SILVER THREADS: If
you’re happy with your hair as
it is now, that should be all
there is to the matter. And I
just hope you don’t have a fi
ance whose love depends upon the
color of your hair.
DEAR SALLY: I’m a bachelor
of 30, and ever since our parents
died two years ago my unmar
ried sister of 26 and I have been
living together in the home they
left us. She and I have always
gotten along wonderfully, and
this has been a very happy set
up. However, we have been
annoyed from time to time by
the uplifted eyebrows of certain
people and the hints they drop a-
bout the “respectability’’ of our
living together as we doj What
have you to say about this? BUD.
DEAR SALLY: My mother
thinks it terrible whenever a
boy whom I don’t want to go
out with phones me for a date
and I tell him, “I’m sorry, but
I already have a date for that
evening.* She claims it’s inex
cusable to lie about it, and that
I should be perfectly frank with
these boys and tell them the truth,
that I don’t care to go out with
them. This sounds cruel to me.
What do you think? CHICKEN.
DEAR CHICKEN: I’m in favor
of kindness, too. You could, under
these circumstances, and with
out being guilty of lying, say,
“I’m sorry, but I’ll be busy
on that evening. *
DEAR SALLY: I’m a working
girl of 27, and was recently pro
moted to a very responsible po
sition in the office of the com
pany where I am employed. I
am now in charge of 18 other
girls in my department, and a
number of these girls are older
than I am and are showing re
sentment over my new authority.
They indicate this by doing sloppy
work, by tardy arrival at work
in the morning, by prolonged
visits to the restroom, and many
other such things to make my
job harder for me. I’ve been re
luctant about speaking to them
about this for fear of making
enemies and creating more in
harmony. But still I know I
must do something. What? MISS
MANAGER.
DEAR MISS MANAGER: One of
the prices of promotion such
as yours is the resentment of
the envious ones. But the fact
remains that you ARE in charge
of these other girls, and I sug
gest that you call a meeting at
once and explain exactly what is
expected of them and what will
NOT be tolerated. Be as friend
ly in manner about this as you
can, but be firm. Then if some
of the racalcitrant ones persist
in their present tactics, all you
can do is discharge them.
NOTE TO BRIDE-ELECT: The
style of wedding ring is entire
ly a matter of personal taste,
not of fashion. The wedding ring
is supposed to be a symbol,
not an ornament. Personally, I
like the plain narrow band of gold
or platinum.
HOW CAN I?
BY ANNE ASHLEY
Q. How can I remove surface
discolorations from my bathtub?
A. Mix a paste of baking pow
der and peroxide, apply to the
discolored areas and, after this
has dried, wash it away -- and
the original luster should then be
restored. Incidentally, this is
also a very good method of bright
ening up the finish on your re
frigerator.
Q. How can I renew some ran
cid butter?
A. Break the butter up and
put into fresh milk. Allow it to
absorb the milk, drain thorough
ly, then wash in cold salted water,
and work it again into the de
sired form.
Q. When applying new enamel
paint over an already enamel
ed surface, how can I prevent it
from running?
A. Try adding a little corn
starch to your tnimel.
Q. Have , you any tips on the
easier applicition of oil stains
or water stains dn raw wood?
A. Try using a cellulose
sponge, instead of a brush. A
sponge will require less frequent
dipping, and will make it easier
to regulate the amount being
applied. An in addition, the
square edges of the sponge help
when working in corners or a-
long edges.
Q. How can I keep my cof
fee pot sweet and clean inside?
A. Sprinkle salt into the pot,
rub well all around with a damp
cloth, then rinse with boiling
water. Many other tips like this
are contained in my new house
hold-hints book.
Q. What is a quick and easy
way to lubricate a stubborn zip
per?
A. Just by stroking an ordin
ary wax candle over the teeth
on both sides of the zipper, you
can give it the necessary lub
rication for easy operating.
Q. How can I improve the ap
pearance of a shabby-looking
black umbrella?
A. Try brushing over it with
a solution of ammonia and warm
water.
