Should I see a doctor?--A.M. Sometimes I lose my self-con- trol and. rant -- well speak sharply, anyway -- against the over-concern with having a big bust measurement.

WHITMAN AILING HOUSE PAINT OVER FIREPLACE QUESTION: Above my man- tel over the fireplace, I notice the wall paint is peeling off. What is causing this? How can it be corrected ANSWER: The plaster on this wall is probably applied directly to the chimney brick under. neath, When warm, humid house air comes in contact with cooler masonry (the plaster has the cooler brick temperature) surfaces, it condenses, This peel off the wall, To correct this condition, a false wall of plaster- board panels on one inch fur- ring strips should be built; this will create a dead air insulating space between the wall and the brick of the chimney. The plasterboard can be painted or papered, as desired, SILVERFISH QUESTION: I have been troubled with silverfish for over a year, They appear in one bed- room only, I have sprayed the cellar and around the floor of the room with canned insecti- cide but they are back again the same night. What do you recom- mend? ANSWER: An _ _ effective remedy for silverfish is pyre- thrum powder, dusted with a powder puffer, in cracks behind woodwork and wherever else the insects are seen; or use DDT or lindane powder instead, Silver- fish feed chiefly on starch, seek- ing it in starched fabrics, wall- paper paste, etc. LIPSTICK ON WOOL RUG QUESTION: An open lipstick was dropped on the wool rug in our foyer and left a stain, How can I remove the stain?

Corn, which he. shouldn't eat has a high residue and this can be irritating when it reaches the sensitive area of his digestive tract, It wouldn't be a bad idea to try a peach, apple or pear, but peel it first, and then see whether it causes discomfort.

KEN GAMSBY ORONO -- The Orono Cham- ber of Commerce held their February meeting at the Orono Restaurant recently with Rob- ert Simpson, chairman of the Clarke Planning Board, as guest speaker | Mr. Simpson outlined some as- pects of pl which are now being considered by the Clarke Board along with general infor- mation of the Clarke board) which is composed of three ap-| jpointed members, Gordon Cot-| jter, Arthur Low and the speak- ers with. two members of coun- cil, Reeve H. E. Walkey. and) councillor Roy Foster. | The speaker stated that it would have been possible for Clarke to have planning with- out forming the board. The work could. have been done by the Council rather than by a Plan- ning Board. However in Clarke| the council reasoned that they did not have the time to deal with planning matters, so form- ed a planning board. Mr. Simpson also pointed out that the Department of Muni- cipal Affairs had also strongly recommended planning for Clarke as they were aware that problems would arise where no attempt was being made to- wards planning. Subject Of Talk At Orono "If you have no controls in Clarke we then get buildings) which cannot be undertaken in the other municipalities," he said, "Property values also suf- fer where there is no plan- ning," stated Mr. Simpson. The speaker also pointed to the need of mortgage money to promote building. He said that the large dealers in mortgage money such as NHA will not loan money where no planning exists, These loan companies want to know what is going to happen in an area before they issue mortgages. "In Clarke Township, a build- ing code exists for single family residents only. We have no code for industrial, commercial or multi-family homes. Considera- tion is being given," said Mr. Simpson, "'to use the National Building Code in these latter instances," The speaker told of develop- ment which blocks the use of land for other purposes. It was in this area tha sub-division con- trol could be of benefit. "This control", he said, "has worked well in the Orono area where it has been in force. Subdivision control," he said, "is only a matier of fair play with every- one, it makes sense." that he felt that we have to have The main purpose of planning, stated the speaker, was to pro- |tect the present population of the district.
