If | the pipe is short enough (you don't state its length), you could make a modified ramrod, by securing a wad of rags or household sponge over one end of a long pole. If you have an old - fashioned bamboo fishing pole around, this could be ideal. Pushing this through the pipe should get results. If the pipe is too long for a pole, fasten a weight, like a stone or heavy fishing sinker, to some cord and drop down from the roof open- ing. When it comes through into the kitchen; fasten the roof end to stronger cord (such as clothes line or 25 - pound test fishline) and then secure the same type of wad or sponge. Then with a helper in the kitch- | en and you at the roof end, you | can draw the cleaning wad back and forth the length of the pipe.
