November is the time for
squirrels and nuts Again this
year, I’ve picked up black
walnuts and painstakingly
removed the thick green husks.
There are several methods of
removing them, but I simply sit
down and hammer them off on a
block of wood
Some folks put the walnuts
through a hand corn sheller and
others throw them in the
driveway until they are a black
mess After the hulls are off, they
must be carefully dried before
the shells are cracked open
Next comes the tedious job of
picking out the nutmeats. Then
we wonder why nuts cost so much
per pound 1

The birthday celebrations m
our family come in spurts There
are four in about six weeks in the
Spring and then another four in
six weeks in the Fall So we bake
cakes and buy presents in a
flurry of activity only to relax
then for several months.
Recently we tried to phone our
son on his 18th birthday only to
learn he was spending the
weekend at another college on a
judging team.
We hope to keep better track of
our eight year old on her bir
thday. She has a list of 17 things
she wants pasted on our
refrigerator I’m afraid she will
be slightly disappointed when the
day comes But at least she is
optimistic

Glass fiber repels soil and
water and it is this quality that
makes these fabrics easy to wash
and quick to dry. However, it is
advisable to wash glass fabrice
by hand says Mrs. Helen T.
Puskar, extension home fur
nishings specialist, The Penn
sylvania State University.
Because large draperies are
heavy and cumbersome to wash
by hand, she suggests sending
them to a commercial laundry
equipped to handle draperies.
