TIPTON (Ind.) TRIBUNE Thursday, May 14, 1953 'aliie Antiques? Dcn't Your Dealer XEW YCHK (as) Please, York "very time she sees hmp made out of an old" coffee rfirfcr. stove, sun, water pitcher, P-M-HKC'S fcelingK on the snillecl over a cus- his intention of making a floor lamp out of a cigar store wooden indian. Don't Bore Holes "Unless your 'antique" is really a valueless piece of junk, don't bore holes in it," she said. "Few people realize the value of an antique drops immediately it's Drilled, painted or changed. "About the only thing that can be wired for use as a lamp is a candlestick, because it can be drilled and wired from the bottom.

A hole anywhere in an antique generally spoils it." If you insist that the coffee grinder become a lamp, Miss Penrose urges having the work done by an expert. In her 18 years as an antique dealer, she said, she's seen many a good object ruined by an amateur armed with a drill. Her suggestion for using things like old coffee case you don't want to grind coffee to grow plants in the coffee drawer, use it as a doorstop, or just put it out for show. But no holes, please. Spring Salad Crops Require Small Space "You need very much garden space "to grow spring salad crops," suggests W.

B. Ward, Purdue university extension horticulturist. Just a few feet of row for each is sufficient. Garden greens such as kale, lettuce, mustard, spinach, and endive should be planted now, asserts the specialist. Gardeners will be able to harvest, some of these crops in 30 to 35 days.

Lettuce and spinach are two early season greens that may be planted far fall as well as spring crops, to the joy of the enthusiastic gardener. Even surplus beets and turnips, if not intended for use as root crops, wul make excellent greens for appetizing salads. They should 'be planted any time from mid- April to the first of May. i Gardeners have best success with greens grown on a well-fert- lized soil. From six to eight wunds of 3-12-12 'fertilizer should spread per 100 square feet be- ore spading or plowing.

Plant greens in close rows, ad- rises Ward, spacing the rows about 15 to 20 inches apart. Later, adverse weather comes, and the jlants seem to "stand still," gar- leners will want to side dress with i nitrate fertilizer. A handful of fertilizer applied every eight to ten "eet of row and spaced about two nches away from the foliage, is he best practice. Don't worry over insect trouble, adds Ward. Most pests steer clear of these crops.

He's Albert Lomson, tyle director of the Hair Fashion Council of America, and proprie- or of one of the two men's groom- ng salons in the U. S.

To hear him tell it, men are about to invade beauty parlors ock, stock and curlers. However, he'll admit that possibly he's hipped on the subject because he does run a salon for hair-on-the-chest EAST UNION Mrs. George Overdon Mother's Day was observed Sunday at East Union Christian church: Those receiving potted plants were Mrs. Isa Hunter, Mrs. James Garst and Mrs.

Dragged In Albert will even admit that most of his customers are dragged in kicking and screaming by women. But once a man discovers the advantages of hair styling, says Albert.Jie's a permanent customer and goes around spreading the word to other reluctant males. "Hair is a man'r. greatest asset in looks," Albert declared, "and men need htiir styling more than women." He pointed out th it a woman can experiment with liEirdos, tints and artificial coifs thout drawing any attention from the boss. But a man's and chance of promotion may iterally depend on a hair, Albert claims.

A man who goes bald iy be rejected for promotion to a job where he has to meet people; thinning hair or gray hair is taken as a sigr of old age; and psychologically receding hairline may stunt a mbns ambitions and abilities. Woman's Duty Albert believes it's a women's i duty to make sure that the man she loves husband or son to a man's grooming expert his hair begins to thin, turn gray or look bad. He says most ofjhis customers the majority of whom are middle aged business men were brought in by their wives after a physical check-up by a doctor showed no medical reason for falling hair. At a men's salon, the customers get permanent waves to give thinning hair the illusion of thickness. They have their haircuts styled to their face.

And if i necessary, they get a dye or tint job to combat grayness but in slow stages so that the color changeover won't be. noticeable. Albert, who does business as "Albert of Fifth Avenue," says: "The psychological value of (good looks is enormous. A man I who looks better, feels better and has confidence in himself." 'Sissy Jibes' As for "sissy" jibes, this hair expert recalled that men once thought wristwatches were effeminate. And he expects beauty parlors for men to become an accepted thing.

"In the next ten years," Albert predicted firmly, "there will be men's beauty shops ini every city and state in the There's a need for them and- men are learning to want them."
