In 1887 she came to this county with her husband, . where she made her home up to the time of her death.

REPUBLICANS HELD THEIR CONVENTION HERE TODAY (Continued from Page One) Washington constitutes, we hold, the only effectice weapon against inefficiency, waste and incompet ence or against any other feature that will retard the winning of the war. 2. We demand that no official or group of offwials be permitted after the war to continue to im pose permanently upon our citi zens those restrictions and limi tations upon freedom which, dur ing the war, are cheerfully borne as essential for the national safety. Our nation's return to peace must mark our resumption of the tradit ional American personal freedom of life. 3. We endorse the candidacy of all Republican Senatorial and Congressional nominees, together with all the Republican nominee* for state and county offices, and recommend them to the voters as capable and economical and de voted to the American theory of government and way of life, and we pledge them our hearty sup port. 4. We commend the patriotic, efficient, economical administra tion of our state government un der the leadership of Governor Dwight Griswold. 5. We recommend our candi date for the United States Senate, Kenneth Wherry, and heartily commend him to all'voters. He has been farmer, laborer and merchant and is familiar with and sympathetic to all the many problems of each. 6. We condemn the present primary system and advocate its amendment so that a convention of the party may, prior to the pri mary, examine the qualifications of the several candidates who aspire for the offices to be filled and by vote recommend to the party those most qualified and capable. 7. We invite all citizens who believe in the American system of free democratic government ad ministered with honesty, efficien cy and economy to support the Republican candidates. D. E. Bowen G. E.

Pointers For Removal Of Fruit Stains Fresh fruits to eat are one of the pleasures of summertime, but they often leave marks on table linen and clothes that become ugly stains unless they are treat ed promptly and correctly. As part of the wartime cam paign to conserve fabrics, the county agent’s office this week furnished some tips on removal of fruit stains from cottons and linens. Start working on stains while they are still fresh and damp, if possible. In any case, remove them before you launder the fab ric. Alkalis, such as in soap, and heat from the iron “set” some fruit and berry stains, making them difficult and sometimes even impossible to get out. Boiling water will remove most fruit stains from white or color fast cottons or linens. Stretch the stained cloth over a bowl, and fasten with a string so it cannot slip off. Then pour on the water from a height of 3 or 4 feet. If necessary, rub the fabric between applications of boiling water, to help loosen the stain. Sometimes even warm water will work suc cessfully in removing a stain. If the stain is not gone com pletely when you have finished the water treatment, put a little lemon juice on the spot and put it in the sun to bleach. Or you can use one of the chemical bleaches, such as hydrogen per EVERYTHING FOR BACK TO SCHOOL AT BOYS FELT HATS_98c 1.49 BOYS* DRESS SHIRTS_69c 98c BOYS* SWEATERS_1.49 2.49 BOYS* CORDUROY PANTS 1.98 2.98 BOYS’ JIMMIES 98c BOYS’ WORK SHOES 1.79 2.29 2.49 BOYS’ DRESS SOCKS19c BOYS’ SHIRTS, SHORTS25c PENCIL TABLETS4c 8c FOUNTAIN PENS25c WEBSTER’S DICTIONARY25c GIRLS’ SWEATERS1.19 1.49 1.98 GIRLS’ SKIRTS1.19 2.29 GIRLS’ WASH DRESSES 69c 1.19 1.98 GIRINS* PANTIES19c 25c 29c GIRLS’ SLIPS29c 59c GIRLS’ CAMPUS HOSE15c 25c GIRLS’ SHOES1.29 1.98 2.49 HISTORY PAPER, REAM39c LEPAGE INK8c SCISSORS8c MECHANICAL PENCIL 25c oxide and sodium perborate, hy drosulphite; or javelle water. To remove stains from fresh peaches, pears, and plums, use cold water and glycerine. First, sponge the stain well with cool water. Then put several drops of glycerine, or a soapless shampoo, on the stain—enough to cover it. Work in by rubbing the fabric between your hands. Let it stand for several hours, then put on a few drops of vinegar or oxalic acid. Allow it to remain for a minute or two, and then rinse well in water.
