Of This And That
There are several youngsters in

of dental work, and many who
need glasses, but are unable to
get them because their parents
just can’t afford the cost.
The Kodiak Health and Welfare
Council does as much as possible
to fill that need and help those
children gain better health. But...
and that is the big problem . . .
funds get low in the coffers of the
Council, too. That is the time for

Altho the Girl Scouts do have a
record player at their quonset hut
where they meet, they don’t have
many records.
Big plans are afoot for their
Court of Awards, to be held in
March, and the girls need square
dance music for rehearsals of their
program.
If anyone has any 78 play
records they no longer want,
please bring them to the Mirror
office and we will see that the
Girl Scouts get them.
Folding chairs are also needed
by the Girl Scouts. At present
their funds are at a low point so
they cannot buy new chairs. If
anyone has used folding chairs

price, please call Mrs. Peggy

The chairs need not be in per
fect condition as long as they are
solid and not broken. The girls
will do any repainting and minor
repairs that may be -necessary.

For you plant lovers who had
trouble propagating your favorite
flowers, vines, shrubs and even
trees the following suggestions
will help.
Take a deep dish similar to a
baking loaf pan (4 inches) and put
about one inch of gravel in the
bottom. Now add about 2 inches of
sand over the gravel. Add approxi
mately % inch of water. This will
make the water level nearly at the
sand line. If sand and gravel are
not readily available, expanded
mica may be purchased in most,
hardware stores where gardening
supplies are so** Expanded mica
called* vermiculite, can be used u»
place of both the sand and gravel
Milled sphagnum moss may also
be used satisfactorily if it is more
readily available.
From the plant you wish to pro
pagate cut off 4-6 inches of good
healthy tip growth from an area
that will not deform the parent
stock. It should be cut just below
a node or joint. Remove the leaves
on the lower two inches of the cut
ting. Treating the stem of hard to
propagate species with a hormone
rooting material may help but tins

($)% pm going -to have -to wear glasses
will this ruin me socially ?
fi\° Of course not These days it's unusual to find
someone who doesn't wear glasses at some ^
time or another.
y[hen you Have your
glasses fitted, dont choose
frames that are too big 1
and heavy for your young
face. Frames with a
slight uptilr at the
corners are attractive and they usually wear
better if they're a dark color-tortoise shell,
black, red or blue. A simple, uncluttered hairdo
will also look more appealing with glasses than
DON'T
a fussy one.
Fancy jewelled framesshould be re
served for special dates and not worn
for everyday.No matter how glamorous
they seem, uou’d get awfully tired of ,
wearing them all the time.
A smart* pair of glasses are always
prettier than a pair of tired peering
eyes. So, if you need glasses -
wear them!
