Whitman No. QUESTION: Our wallpaper is coming loose above our radiator We papered three years ago this spring. We took all the old paper off and then gave the walls a good coat of glue sizing. Could you suggest something we could use that will not loosen the paper? (We Nama Address ..I.. Use Simple Patterns In Building Tables have vapor heat.) ANSWER: As you say the paper oosened above the radiator, but evidently did not loosen anywhere else, I make the guess that the leat was in the radiator at the time of papering, and the heat dried out the glue sire too quickly so that the paper did not make a good bond. If you are planning to repaper, make sure that the radiator is cold at the time you paper that part of the room. QUESTION: Our dining-roo- m 'urniture has white spots on the egs, probably caused by striking the legs with shoes Is there some way I can touch them up? I do not want to refinish the entire piece unless I have to. JOHN JARVIS "if you'll pardon my SAYING SO, MADAM, YOU'LL GET ALONG VERY NICELY WITHOUT THE HELMET AND GOGGLES." ANSWER: I suppose the pieces are made of a white wood, such as maple, and the varnish has been scuffed off. I believe you will find t more satisfactory to do a good job rather than touch up the pieces with preparations for hiding the damage. However, perhaps you would rather do it this way. If so, ask your hardware dealer for one or two of the new products made for concealing scratches and other blemishes on furniture or ask at a furniture store. QUESTION: There is a corner crack in our bedroom wall and the ceiling has cracks. We have used preparation for fixing cracks, but after a severe winter the cracks show up again. Is there any other material besides paper that would be pretty and not crack down at the corners? Our room Is finished in calcimine. Would that have to be removed If covered with other material?

Haa ANSWER: A corner crack needs a somewhat different treatment from a crack in the straight wall. The plaster should be removed down to the lath on each side of the corner for a distance of 4 to 8 inches. Then a metal corner lath is nailed In place apd that part of the wall then is replastered. If you cannot get corner lath, you may be able to get metal lath in strips 8 to 12 inches wide Bend PATTERN 295 gives for making a modern coffee table, end tables, nested tables, a telephone stand and other useful tables.

It would be advisable to have a plasterer do the job for you. The ceiling crack can be undercut to make it wider at the lath than at the surface. The plaster crumbs should be cleaned out and the groove wet with water. It then can be filled with patching plaster almost to the top and allowed to dry. It will shrink a trifle in dry ing. It then should be filled to the surface and smoothed level with the surrounding plaster surface. Hide Signs of Wealth In every Bantu language there Is a word to describe the action of a man who, owning a considerable herd of cattle, plants them ou among his poorer relatives am neighbors so that he will not appear too prosperous. Everybody knows that they are his, and just how many he has, but he mus avoid any appearance of ostenta tion. Similarly, it is not considered advisable to own too good a house or lands that are too well cultivated. Fear of exciting the envy of the chief is one of the motives that govern this attitude of mind which always has been a powerfu brake to the progress of Bantu agriculture in South Africa. jm rnktmtm Battery Saves Sta-f- ol to nl l':r Sta-fHie amazing new Auto-ii-te Battery Hat greater ordinary batteries needs water aaly S times a year.
