The Rosedale Gardens Civic Association is conducting an ex- tensive survey of transportation needs for the residents of that community. Many suggestions have been advanced as solutions to this problem, but until the des- tinations are catalogued, no def- inite action can be taken.

Train Commuter Service and direct bus service are possibilities and the Associa- tion intends to leave no stone un- turned in their efforts to provide adequate transportation.

How to make you� Measured in terms of convenience and comfort, in hours of time and labor saved, your household electric service is one of -the cheapest things you buy. Many of your electric servants can be operated even more economically by following a few simple rules: YOUR ELECTRIC RANGE. Conserve electricity by finishing surface cooking on "low" or stored heat. Plan economical oven meals (cook the entire meal at once). Use very little water in cooking (foods come up to "steaming" point more rapidly). Use the thrift cooker on your range for low-cost casserole dishes. Avoid wasting heat by choosing flat- bottomed utensils just big enough to cover the heating unit. Always keep lid on utensils. YOUR REFRIGERATOR. A blanket of ice around the coils of your refrigerator actually makes your refrigerator work. overtime—increases operating cost. Defrost it regularly for economy's sake. For the same reason, don't put hot foods in the refrigerator to cool. And don't open the door oftener or longer than necessary, because this lets the heat in. Locate your refrigerator away from heat sources—and out from the wall an inch or two to allow air circulation. Avoid overcrowding the refrigerator for efficient operation. And cover all foods so that moisture won't collect on the freez- ing unit. YOUR SMALL APPLIANCES. Don't leave appliances turned on when temporarily not in use (your electric iron or toaster, for example). Pull the plug, and connect the appliance again later when you are ready to use it.

Defense stamps are on sale at the school office every day be- tween 8:15 and 12:15. Our school has been approved to take part in the Agricultural Marketing Penny Milk Program. Under this program children pur- chase milk for one penny for a half pith. The federal government pays as much as the dairy pays the farmer. The remainder of about one-half cent per one-half pint is being made up by con- tribution and profit from movies or parties. Bottle for contribu- tions is located in the neighbor- hood stores.
