The Salina Journal from Salina, Kansas • Page 5

Cozy room is a place to dream RELAXING ENVIRONMENT Dream your waking and sleeping hours away in this dynamic dual-purpose bedroom and sit- ting room. The quiet environment is created with subtle hues and highlighted with light paneling applied at a 45 degree angle in the recessed area of the room. This creates a suitable accent for the framed graphic. Several interesting features are incorporated into a bedroom-sitting room designed by Helen Masoner, A.S.I.D. By building two full-length storage closets at either end of a 16 foot wall, the designer created a recessed area that accommodates a handsome day bed.

Top panels of the closet doors (each 18" wide) are fitted with bright yellow shirred fabric, creating an airy window-like effect. The bottom half of the closet doors are trimmed with blue molding to complement the ceiling molding and the chair rail on the other walls. Walls are covered with a textured paneling. The diagonal application of the 4'x8' panels in the recessed area behind the day bed provides a tasteful change of pace and a suitable accent for the framed graphic. The pre-finished hardboard paneling is applied vertically on the other walls of the room.

Blue and white carpeting in the same tones as the walls and moldings helps set off the breakfast area from the area. When not in use for serving meals, the table and chair grouping can serve as a writing table, game table or even as a television stand. The neutral coloring of the walls, day bed cover, chair covers and table skirt is accented throughout by perky yellow and pale blue for an overall effect that is cheerful, yet restful. The colors help unify this dynamic double-duty room and make it a place to dream whether waking or sleeping. Women Today Tbe Salina Journal Mr.

Shuberg 50th jubilee Golden day for Andrewses for Shubergs Your dad is one who can't express love Dear I'm not an adult or somebody important. I'm just a kid, but I would appreciate it if you would read this and maybe help me. I don't know if my dad likes me or not. He is nice and everything, but he doesn't ever hug me or kiss me or let me know that I mean anything to him. I 'spend summer vacations with my aunt and uncle.

My uncle takes me places, puts his arms around me once in a while, talks to me about subjects I'm interested in and kisses me goodnight. My dad never does any of these things. I am the baby of the family. My brothers and sisters are all out on their own. Maybe my dad is tired of kids.

What do you think? Rolla, Mo. Dear Rolla: I think your dad is probably one of those unfortunate people who can't express affection. You can help him by letting him know you understand his problem. I realize this is asking a lot of a child, but please trust me and take my advice. In fact, I suggest you show him this column and ask if he can guess which letter is yours.

ann landers help and advice Dear Ann: You were off base with your advice on vitamins. My husband owes his life to vitamins. He was a heavy drinker and in terrible shape. When his doctor told him to get on the wagon or make funeral arrangements, he chose the wagon. That same doctor put him on vitamins.

Now, 18 months later, he is like a new man. Why didn't you talk to some doctors before you made such a rash statement? Please be fair and print this letter. A Vitamin Believer Dear Believer: Go back and read that column again and you will notice I said people who have balanced meals don't need vitamins. Very rarely does a severe alcoholic have balanced meals. Most of them have a vitamin deficiency.

For them, vitamins are essential. I didn't need to check with any doctors on this one: I already knew what they thought. A recent issue of American Medical News ran the results of a survey conducted by the American Academy of Family Physicians. Nine hundred doctors were asked if they took vitamins regularly and did they believe it made any difference. Only 16 percent said they took vitamins, and a meager 11 percent said they believed it made any difference.

-tr -tc Dear Ann: What do you suggest to people who receive wedding invitations from casual acquaintances people they know by face only? We have received two wedding invitations this month from people who have never sent us a Christmas card, never given us a phone call, never invited us for an evening, never shown any interest in developing a friendship. Dryer should get weekly cleaning By HELOISE II Dear Heloise: Being a fireman's wife, I am aware of how many fires are caused by not properly cleaning out the lint from the automatic dryers we use so frequently. We clean out the filter, but the compartment where the filter is located accumulates dust just as well. I tried using the crevice tool from my vacuum, but found that this was not long enough. The other tools were not thin enough to fit into the space.

I took an empty cardboard roll that paper towels come on and attached it, with masking tape, to the crevice tool. Being soft, I could flatten it thin enough to fit into the opening. It was long enough to go all the way to the bottom of the filter compartment and completely clean it out. Now every week when I vacuum, I make sure the dryer gets its weekly cleaning. Isabelle Rooney Dear Heloise: We were about dispose of two kitchen chairs because the tubular metal leg supports became wobbly and tightening the screws under the seat would not solve the problem.

We removed the seat cushions and used each one as an extra cushion on top of the remaining two chairs of our kitchen set. It was an improvement to the original chair and gave additional height while sitting at the table. Another advantage of the extra "seats" is that each one can be picked up and put on top of one of our dining chairs when the grandchildren come to visit and they also can use them as a booster seat. Even the curved back sections of the original chairs can be unscrewed and the children can use the section as a "bucket seat" rocker on the floor. It can also be used as a head support while watching TV or reading while reclining on the floor as a lot of people enjoy doing.

Even the tubular metal legs can be used in the garden as a support for the mesh-type wire edging we have around our vegetable patch to keep our doggy out of our farming attempts. How's that for being inventive? A Faithful Reader I'd say you had your old noggin working overtime thinking up those uses for something that would otherwise be thrown away. Heloise -tr Dear Heloise: I enjoy every one of your columns. To renew large towels where the middle has worn thin from constant use, I cut the towel in half, crossways. Sew the ends together and hem the raw edges or you can even put a matching or contrasting bias tape on each end.

This way you don't have to throw them in the rag bag and you will get a lot more use out of them. Leila Johnson If we do not reply, are we impolite? Dear A.L.G.: You should respond. Simply tell them you are sorry, but you are unable to accept their invitation. Confidential to Bed-Wetter at Age 22: Since you have already been checked by two physicians and no organic problem is involved, it must be psychological. Get couseling and tell your boy friend about it.

You'd be a fool to pass up marriage because of this. If he's as wonderful as you say, he will understand. P.S. I recommend twin beds. Can drugs be a friend in time of stress? If you keep your head together can they be of help? Ann Landers' new booklet, "Straight Dope on Drugs" separates the fact from the fiction.
