Dallas Post/Ed Campbell
two women were
Sandra Cooper and her daughter,
Elizabeth Cooper, both of 63
Newhard Road, Shavertown, were
recently notified of their successful
completion of the October state
boards for cosmetology. Both are
now licensed cosmetologists. ~~
Mrs. Sandra Cooper is currently
employed as a cosmetologist for
Major Hair Designs, Market Street,
Kingston. Her husband, Grant, is
employed at American Asphalt,
Chase.
Elizabeth, who plans to wed
Robert Zack of Hanover Green in
May, is employed as a medical
secretary at Wyoming Valley
Family Practice in Kingston.
Other members of the Cooper
family include a son, Grant Jr., also
employed at American Asphalt,
Chase; and a daughter, Alice,
employed at Stapinski’s Drug Store,
Dallas.
Both mother and daughter studied
cosmetology by attending evening
classes at the Bradford Beauty
Academy in Wilkes-Barre.
Animal science projects in the
Pennsylvania 4-H Program help
boys and girls to develop responsi-
bility to perform under pressure
and to accept constructive criticism
as well as praise. They learn a lot
about domesticated animals by
working with them.
Young people working on animal
projects learn that animals are
more than just “things”. Young
people interested in 4-H animal
projects may choose from the fol-
lowing beef, dairy, horse, sheep,
swine, dog and pets which may
include cats, goldfish, parakeets,
turtles and snakes.
With a beef project a member
may select a 300-pound animal, and
grow it to approximately 1,000
pounds, making choice beef. The
member learns how to fit hsi or her
animal and to exhibit it properly at
livestock auctions, fairs and some-
times even the Pennsylvania Farm
newspaper
or buy a GIFT

In dairy, many young people
enjoy taking care of a goat, calf or
cow, the objective being the milk
given by the animal as a result of
good management and care. They
also have the opportunity to partici-
pate in competitions at all levels.
Horse and pony are popular
animal science projects. Partici-
pants learn the parts of the horse;
how to select, care for, and exhibit
their horse or pony; and proper
feeding and housing. They also
become acquainted with both West-
ern and English riding style and
tack.
Pet projects are popular with
boys and girls living in urban, rural
or suburban environments. 4-H’ers
“learn about the history, manage-
ment, and care of the pet or pets of
their choice.

animal science project, contact

Before bitterly cold weather
catches up with us, Pennsylvania
Gas and Water Company offers the
following self-help tips to avoid
frozen water pipes.
Pipes in cellars and other areas
where they are exposed to sub-
freezing temperatures should be
wrapped to prevent freezing. Com-
mercial pipe wrapping material
prominently advertised by lumber
and home improvement centers this
time of year will usually yield the
best results when insulating pipes.
Cellars should be inspected for
drafts. Close and lock cellar win-
dows and make sure the windows
are covered with plastic to further
cut down on heat loss from around
the window and sill.
According to Frank J. Loch,
PG&W’s vice president Consumer
Affairs, many of the frozen water
services reported to the company
each winter season could be avoided
by following these simple recom-
mendations.
Loch further cautions that if a
water customer finds a frozen pipe
in the basement, NEVER use an
open flame such as a blow-torch to
”
thawed just as quickly and without
threat of causing a flame generated
fire by a hand-held hair dryer at the
point of freezing. : 72
These tips, if followed, can be
practiced in an emergency and at a
considerable savings to customers
who would otherwise have the cost
of repairing the service should it
freeze, Loch adds.
DAMA customers
can save money
The Dallas Area Munici
Authority is pleased to announce
that their customers who wish to
save money on their sewer rental
bill can do so by paying for the year
in advance on or before January 31,
1985. ;
DAMA charges $151.00 a year, or
$37.75 per quarter, but for the
month of January the customers
who wish to pay for the year will be
allowed a 5 percent discount, which
reduces the sewer. rental bill to
$143.45, a savings of $7.55. :
