I I 10 Hints from Heloise 1976 '6z It stores like a new pool By Heloise Cruse Dear Heloise: Last year when I was ready to store my kids' small plastic swimming pool at the end of the season, I wanted it to be especially clean. So I just squeezed all the air out, closed up the valves and washed it in my washing machine. I added 2 bath towels and a little bleach and pulled it out before the spin, and bung it out. I rinsed it off with the hose while it was on the line and let it drip dry. Guess what? No more gook and it stored like a nice, clean new pool! I don't see why this wouldn't work for all those little air-filled swim rings and floats we use at the beach off and on all Summer.
Thanks for all your great ideas. With 7 kids I sure can use all the help I can get! Midge Mitchell Dear Heloise: This may fall into your Letter of Laughter category, but it really works for In trying to lose weight, 1 find it truly helps to leave my dentures in the bathroom while I'm cleaning up and putting food away after dinner. Gwen Shoemaker Dear Heloise: When cleaning a bunch of storebought radishes, 1 always cut off the. roots while the bunch is still tied up. It's so fast! I'm always surprised when I see someone do each one the hard way.

This gives more room to get your fingers "at" that ornery thread. An Old "Sew and Sev;" Dear Heloise: Use pipe cleaners instead of rubber bands on little girl's pony tails.
Pipe cleaners come in all colors. Best of all, they do not hurt when removed from the child's hair and can be used over and over. Mrs. H. Calley Dear Heloise: When fixing tuna for salad or sandwiches, use cottage cheese instead of mayonnaise.
Fewer calories and more nutritious. Also, shredded carrots stretch the servings and add vitamins. Margaret F.

Dear N.D.F.: When one considers the total budget is in excess of $400 bil- lion, $192,000 isn't much to spend on a research project for alcoholics, ularly when one considers that alcoholism is now epidemic in this country. (It is also a serious public health problem in France and Italy.) Scientists must experiment on animals and fish before they apply the principles to human beings. Dear Ann Landers: I've never written to a column such as yours, but that letter from the secretary who was desperate to increase the size of her breasts really got to me.
I have always been small-busted and know how self-conscious and inadequate it can make a woman feel. It only takes one lousy, insensitive jackass to give a woman like me an inferiority complex forever. Just last week a supposedly sophisticated man-about-town told me to put some calamine lotion on them and they would be gone by morning. I was so humiliated and hurt I almost bawled. What I had hoped would be a delightful weekend at the gentleman's Summer home turned out to be a miserable flop.
I hope you'll print this letter so the men out there will realize there are certain things you just don't kid about. Crushed In Cincinnati Dear A pox on both his houses the cad! Put this column in the mail. Maybe he'll learn something. Dear Ann Landers: I'm an animal control officer, better known as a "dog catcher." I can't recall that you have ever said a kind word about us although you have taken up the fight for nearly every other segment of society. There are times when I believe we are the most despised of all working people.
The average citizen has no use for us but it's OK to ask us to crawl under a porch and drag out a skunk or travel miles in the wilderness to get horses back into the pasture. We get calls at all hours to get a cat out of a tree or put a dog to sleep when he has been seriously injured. Then there are the calls a monkey is loose, a pink elephant was seen on Main Street, the Loch Ness monster is in town. We must respond to every call, no matter how screwy. So please, Ann, say a good word for the dog catcher.
He catches a lot of hell along with the dogs, but very few kind words come his way. From Missouri (Sometimes Pronounced Dear Misery: Your job certainly entails requests I never dreamed of.
