WHITE Gazette Home Economist In our last forum, we were discussing rugs in answer to a reader's question about how to select good rug. According to Ken Bradley who is the interior decorator for the Smith-Reafsynder Furniture Company and definitely in the know, a rug should be chosen first to suit your own particular style of furnishings. To go back to that we said last time, it should be made of a blend of seven different foreign wools. The longer pile on the surface of the rug and the more threads per inch, the better the quality of the rug. A rug usually covers more area in a room than any of the other furnishings and nine times out of 10, a decorator will use the rug as the keynote of the entire room and plan the other furnishings around it. Since it is a large investment, and you will live with the rug for long time, select one that you really like the looks of and one of which you are reasonably sure you will not tire. If you feel you want a large rug and yet have to economize, Mr. Bradley recommends a needled wool rug on a felt base as the best alternative to the woven rugs we have been discussing. When the woven rugs are manufactured, their pile is sheared to make it exactly even all over, these shearings are then collected and used to make the needled rugs. You see, these less expensive rugs will have the same blend of foreign wools but are not woven and so will not last quite as long. Now the question arises—shall you use a room size rug or wall-wall carpeting? While we are in the subject let me say that in common use, the words rug and carpet mean the same thing with this exception: a rug is created in and you did!

Farm Advisor Says Berry Pruning Necessary Now Young and Boysenberry vines can be pruned as soon as the crop is off reminds Farm Advisor A. H. Holland of the Agricultural Extension Service. Old canes which bore this spring's crop should be removed. Then 6 or 8 new canes from each plant should be saved by cutting back to about 8 feet in length and putting up on the wires. New canes for this purpose will have been saved from the spring growth by Zion Lutheran (Continued from Page 1) by the congregation at a reception in the church bungalow. Dedication ceremonies held yesterday morning were conducted by Rev. R. E. Gunther, vacancy pastor at the Zion Lutheran Church since Easter of this year. Retired pastor H. G. Schmelzer gave the charter address. Rev. Schmelzer was Zion Lutheran pastor when the church was originally dedicated on August 13, 28 years ago. The re-dedication ceremonies marked the climax of $20,000 renovation program, during which church members contributed much time and effort. The project included installation of new chimes, addition of a new altar, deepening of the chancel, addition of a new choir rostrum, paneling and general strengthening of the church building both inside and out. SCRAP METAL DRIVE SCHEDULE REVEALED As part of its drive to collect scrap metals and other commodities vitally essential to war production, the St. Vincent de Paul Society Salvage Bureau has arranged a new schedule of calls by its pickup trucks. Besides scrap metals, old newspapers, rags, a limited amount of magazines, furniture, clothing and household goods are needed. The phones to call are TRinity 3147, TERminal 2-3925, SYcamore 3-9371 or Long Beach 7-2330. Pickups will be made in this area every other Monday. Those missed on the regular day will be made the following day. Radiant Rose Filet Necessary Now Young and Boysenberry vines can be pruned as soon as the crop is off reminds Farm Advisor A. H. Holland of the Agricultural Extension Service. Old canes which bore this spring's crop should be removed. Then 6 or 8 new canes from each plant should be saved by cutting back to about 8 feet in length and putting up on the wires. New canes for this purpose will have been saved from the spring growth by pulling to one side of the bearing plants and laid along the ground. The canes put upon wires now will send out lateral branches. In November or December when the branches from these canes have grown out several feet they should be pruned back to about 1 foot in length. This leaves the original 6 to 8 canes with numerous spurs to produce next season's crop. HOME GUARD RECRUITING A Home Guard to protect Southern California war installations is prepared to swing into action when the 40th National Guard Division leaves for Army service next month.

(P)—A Lanky 15-year-old youngster from Charleston, W. Va., who carried a Sunday school testament as a good luck charm, is the nation's new soap box derby champion. Harold D. Williamson calmly steered his streamlined black racer to victory yesterday to win the 13th derby race before a crowd of some 50,000. The Los Angeles area winner, who beat out Anaheim youths to represent Southern California, was not listed among finalists. A straight "A" student, the freckled youth will receive a $5000 four-year scholarship for taking the all-American event sponsored by Chevrolet and a host of newspapers. Williamson represented the Charleson, W. Va., Gazette. Second place went to Donald Alter, 15, of Danville, Pa., who was sponsored by the Williamsport, Pa., Sun-Gazette. He finished a scant length behind Williamson on the 975.4 foot track and won a new Chevrolet automobile. Richard Dougan, 13, of Muncie, Ind., representing the Muncie Star, came in third. His prize was a motion picture camera and projector. Williamson had to win five heats and conquer a field of 146 opponents in his story-book victory. Six years ago, he was in bed with rheumatic fever. He emerged with strong, uncrippled limbs after a two-year struggle, but with a weak heart. Although he missed two years of school, but came back to make it up and will start his sophomore horse show which will compare favorably with any staged between the West Coast and Madison Square Garden will be one of the features of the Orange County Fair, scheduled for August 16-20 on the former Santa Ana Army Air base, Lloyd Reed, show chairman, announced today. More than 500 horses, representing virtually every breed, will be shown during the four night shows and three mariners, Reed said. He added that a newly-lighted area plus a large grandstand area will offer a better view of the show as well as more comfort for visitors. Every big stable in California has entries in the show, Reed said, including perennial prize-winners from San Francisco, Los Angeles, Sacramento, Santa Barbara and San Diego. Despite the much larger entry list this year, the admission fee has been halved, he added. Included in entries expected to attract public attention are huge draft horses weighing more than a ton each and which wheel with military precision; the largest jumping horse in the country, which stands 17 hands; a colorful new entry, that of harness show ponies and a polo sweepstakes. In addition, all regular horse show spectacles will be offered during the night shows on Wednesday (August 16), Thursday, Friday and Saturday, and at the matinees on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The night shows will begin at 7:30 p.m., and the matinees Definition of 'Farm' Changed for V.A. On-the-Job Training "The VA Administration has finally agreed to change its definition of a 'farm' in connection with the administration of institutional on-the-job training, a decision which will affect more than 100 veterans throughout California," Congressman John Phillips reported this week. Early in May, the VA ruled such single enterprise operations as poutry and livestock farms could not be classified as farms under the training program, which allows qualified veterans certain government and "hundreds of projects were received," the Congressman said. Following discussions in Washington, and considerable pressure from various organizations, the VA notified its regional managers not to discontinue training of the veterans enrolled prior to May 15 this year. Final wording of the new definition has not been announced," the Congressman said, "but poutry and livestock farming as practiced in the tar West will be approved for present and new enrolees."

Best way to spruce up a telephone is with a soft, dry cloth...never with water, or any other liquid. HOW TO TREAT YOUR TELEPHONE Suggestions to help protect your service HOW TO TREAT YOUR TELEPHONE Suggestions to help protect your service 1. A twisted cord can lead to trouble. Although the wires are especially designed for flexibility, too many twists and kinks may eventually break them and interfere with service until a repairman can call. Good idea to get the curls out by letting the receiver dangle and unwind by itself... then keep them out by remembering, each time you call, not to put turns in the cord as you handle the receiver. 2. It’s built to take it... but your telephone can develop ailments if it’s dropped. So make sure the stand it sits on is solid and is in a spot where it won’t be accidentally bumped. Other ways to help protect service: Avoid “gadget” attachments for your telephone... keep cords clear of doorways where they may be pinched... and always keep water away from wires and fittings. 3. Did you ever stop to think that your telephone is one service or piece of equipment in your home that’s repaired and maintained for life at no extra cost to you? It’s one of the values included in the rates you pay for service... rates that make your service a real bargain today. For the telephone takes an even smaller part of the family budget than it did ten years ago. On the average, rates have gone up less than half as much as the cost of living generally.
