Home Building At
Shawnee Declines
SHAWNEE. Aug. 9 —</P>— Al-
though costs are down about 10
percent, Shawnee home building is
slightly less than last year, City
Inspector Loyd Smith said Monday.
The price of labor has remained
about the same as last year but
lumber and other building materials^
have come down, he said.
There were 93 residential units
built in Shawnee from July 1948
to July 1949, as compared with 115
the previous year.
Smith said most of the homes
built in Shawnee since the war
have been financed on GI loans.
Building has continued at a con-
sistently high rate since the war
ended. *

How Can I?
Q. How can I restore wilted let-
tuce to its former crispness?
A. Wash It carefully In a basin
of water, to which has been added
two tablespoonfuls of vinegar or
lemon juice. Allow the lettuce to
stand in this water for about an
hour, then wash in coldwater.
Q. How can I prevent clothing
from creasing so easily?
A. Be sure not to dampen the
clothes so much that it is difficult
to iron them absolutely dry. If
clothes are not ironed absolutely
dry, they tend to crease easily and
look unsightly after one wearing.
Q. How can I sharpen the sew-
ing machine needle?
A. It can be sharpened satisfac-
torily merely by stitching for sev-
eral inches through a piece of very
fine sandpaper.
