By Herb Alexander "Holidays and the resultant indoor entertaining can be hard on furniture. So can everyday wear and tear.

No matter how careful you try to be, scratches and other marks will start to appear. Getting rid of them is a matter of knowing the right remedy for the particular ailment. Scratches and nicks can be the most annoying and they require care and patience in repairing. Sometimes the scratch is so light that it will vanish if rubbed with a cloth dampened with furniture polish to which you have added a few drops of rubbing alcohol. A fine scratch that just barely breaks' the surface can be repaired by softening the finish so that it flows together over the scratch.

This requires a steady hand. With a fine brush trace over the scratch with alcohol for shellac, turpentine for varnish, lacquer thinner for lacquer.

Your community does not owe you recreational facilities. The world does not owe you a living. You owe the world something. You owe the world your time and your energy and your talents so that no one will be at war, in poverty, or sick, or lonely, again. In plain, simple words: Grow up! Quit being a crybaby.

Get out of your dream world and develop a backbone, not a wishbone. Start acting like a man or woman. You're supposed to be mature enough to accept some of the responsibility your parents have carried for years. They have nursed, protected, helped, appealed, begged, excused, tolerated and denied themselves needed comfort so that you could have every benefit. You have no right to expect them to bow to your.

The deceased had no connection with this pastor or his congregation, but as a favor to us he performed the burial services anyway, and did a magnificent job. How can we properly acknowledge our appreciation to this pastor? We don't want to insult him by offering him money, but we happen to know that most pastors are not nearly as well off financially as most people think they are. NAMELESS, PLEASE DEAR NAMELESS: Since the pastor acted as a "favor" to you, send him a letter of appreciation and enclose a check made out to him for services rendered.
