And if you don't wanête go to these lengths te get coloured flames ln your fireplace this winter, Just throw In a bandful of pure borax or sait and try te sec your dreams la the flames. Borax brightens winter.fires OINCE the daily or weekly %.newspaper has been read, and articles of inherest clipped and put in thc kitchen drawer, there still remains a large quan- tity of paper to get rid of. There are three ways af dasposing of these accumulations of news- print. You can throw themn in with your regular garbage, which we are not encouragcd ta do in most areas.. You can bundle lhem up for collection - in Mast places someone cornes around regu- larly ta pick up oid ncwspapers. Or if yau have a fireplace you cari try yaur own personal rccycling system by rnaking logs for winter cvenings. By adding anc of several chemi- cals, you will finish up with an inexpensive log which will humn with brightly coloured fiames ta cnjay an those dismal wintcr even ings. Ail the chemicals lisîed bc- low are fairly easy to obtain but nced to be used with common sense and caution. Keep îhcm out of the reach of children and pets, and mix them in a dispo- sable plastic container as Most of them will corrode metals. Don't use a container you might unthinkingiy later use for food, iî's better to be safe than sorry. And remember, in this case red and yellow do flot make orange so don't try to combine chemicals for different calours. Rubber glaves are probably a good idea boa. Add about a hait pound of thc chemnical yau choose te a half gallon of water. Soak bhc newspaper thoroughly in the solution and drain off the ex- cess liquid. Then rol he sheets af newspaper tightly until you have a log af thc rcquircd size and leave to dry. A rail 3" in diameter will take about a week to dry. For a purple flamne, use Lith- ium Chloride; red - Strontium Nitrate; orange - Calcium Chloride; ycllow - Potassium Nitrate; apple green - Barium Nitrate; blue - Copper Sul- phate. Ail these chemicals can be oblaincd in a large drug- store. Witbout even leaving thc house, you can find chemicals ta produce twe af the most at- tractive cotaurs. Common table sai will give you a yellow flame and for a startling green flame use a solution of pure borax such as 20 Mule Team Borax. A stack of these -new»spaper lags will add sparkle ta your ire. And if you don't want ta go ta these lengths ta get colourcd flames in your fire- place this winter, just îhrow in a handful of pure borax or sait and try ta sec your dreams in the flames.

Calendar Not in Bahamas C T 11E CURRENT, Bahamas - Y'all can't hail, hey?" shouts the littie girl leaning out of a window. She accepts your hasty wave with a smile. One of the cardinal sins a tourist can make while visiting a Bahamas' Out Island is ta forget to "hail" everyone who happens to pass by, young or old. Ail Bahamian islands are considered "out" except for New Providence, where the capital city of Nassau is lo- cated, and Grand Bahama Island, with the city of Free- port.
