POLLY’S POINTERS
Polly Cramer
Dye on vinyl floor
By Polly Cramer
POLLY'S PROBLEM
DEAR POLLY — I need help. I dyed two rubber-
backed kitchen rugs dark brown and then laid them on
my light-colored vinyl floor in front of the stove and
sink. I now have a gray outline of the rugs on the vinyl
floor and I tried using bleach, etc. with no luck. The man
who sells such flooring was no help.AVhat can 1 do? —
BETTE
DEAR BETTE — Doubtless your rugs were not thor-
oughly rinsed after the dyeing. If the floor has been
waxed this excess color MAY be no deeper than the
wax, and when the wax is removed the pale color may
come off with it.
One floor care information center suggests the fol-
lowing for removing iodine, Mercurochrotne and fruit
juice stains, which would probably have a similar effect
on dye. Rub lightly with a cloth that has been dipped in
alcohol and then rinse. If the stains are removed, apply
self-polishing wax or a one-step clean and polish wax.
— POLLY
DEAR POLLY — Discarded inner-tubes from bicycle to
truck tires make really good strong rubber bands. Lay such a
tube flat and cut across in strips that are more less one-fourth
inch wide. You will be surprised how often such heavy bands
come in handy.
I use discarded liquid dishwashing detergent squeeze bottles
filled with rain water (room temperature) to water my Afri-
can violets and other house plants. Squeeze out the right
amount and have no spills. We keep a large plastic garbage
container with tiny holes in the lid and put the plants on the
can upside down to strain out leaves, bugs, etc. This is kept
under the eaves of the house to catch the rain water and then
the bottles are filled with it as needed. — RUBY
DEAR POLLY — If you are looking for something different
for a senior ladies’ luncheon, consider a shower for a grand-
ma-to-be. The guests bring little gifts that grandma will need
when the new baby visits her. This makes for a fun time. I
know, since such a party was given for me. — MRS. J.A.H. Sr.

GOD'S CROWNING CREATION
And God saw every tiling that He had made, and, behold,
il was very good. Genesis 1:31
AT THE dawn of history, man was made in the image
of God and given dominion over the earth and every
living thing, lie was endowed with an eternal s|iirit
and the ability to reason. This made him unlike any animal.
He was nol only "self’ conscious but also keenly aware

denly he exclaimed, "lust think, the first time God put a

After forming man, the all-wise Originator declared that

Calculus and high heels
Dear Ann Landers: Your
reply to the St. Paul chemistry
student about the 280-pound
woman in stiletto high heels was
a masterpiece of tunnel vision.
The student calculated the
weight concentrated on that
half-inch heel and explained
why it can dent a wood floor.
You replied that a woman is not
likely to stand on one leg, much
less teeter-totter on a single
heel, and you pointed out that
the sole of the shoe carries
much of the weight.
This is true for the standing
woman — but what about the
walking woman? Unless she
was trained by Indian hunters
to walk on the balls of her feet,
she steps first on her heel like
so many faithful readers.
If Thomas Jefferson

Dear One: Pass the crow. I

HOUSTON (AP) - A Houston
psychologist says he has
developed a test that helps a
worker measure his ability to
manage aggression, anxiety,
endurance and other stress
factors that lead to hardship on
the job and trouble at home.
Michael S. Haro, an associate
professor in the School of
Education at the University of
Houston at Clear Lake City,
calls his test the “Tension
Quotient.”
- He has given the 33-question
quiz to 500 oil company workers
who volunteered to take the TQ
test during the last year.
“I think the TQ could be of
help to just about anybody
holding a job,” Haro said. "It
points out areas where someone
might be particularly
vulnerable to problems and yet
might not be aware of them.”
He said the scores belong to
individual employees and will
never be used for or against
employees.
“They can discuss the tests
with others if they wish but no
one but the employee and I
know the scores,” he said.
Haro said most people have
no major tension-related
problems until something ex-
traordinary is added, such as
divorce, death of a loved one, a
too-demanding boss or a serious
disease.
“Just because someone has a
high-stress job, though, doesn't
mean he or she cannot handle
stresses in their families or
even on the freeways they can
get into trouble,” he said.

the tensions," he said. “In fact,
lots'Oi pe
people seem to thrive on
their stresses.”
The TQ test is divided into six
categories and includes an
assessment by the employee of
his personality type.
Many individuals are
“completely unaware of just
how stressful their jobs may
be,” Haro said.
“And then if they have serious
