Durmg hiS time overbeas, 

Brucker faced greater danger 

from the harsh desert WInds 

called Sirocco", than from the 

Germans 

"I Jomed the Navy and ended 

up beIng statIOned In a desert," 

said Brucker 

After the war he received hiS 

undergraduate degree from 

Pnnceton and hiS law degree 

from the Umverslty of 

MIchigan In 1952 

"The GI BIll paid for my education," 

Said Brucker "It paid 

for a lot of thmgs " 

Brucker jomed hiS father's 

firm of Clark, Klein, Brucker 

and Waples He spent the first 

couple of years "workIng on the 

kinds of cases they gIVe the 

young lawyers - collectwn 

cases, WIlls, I even got stuck 

WIth a couple of crlmmal 

cases" 

Brucker said It took him a 

couple of years to determine 

what type of law he would spe- 

Cialize m He ended up gomg

out by Comenca In 1989 and 

Brucker became Of Counsel for

he wound down hiS legal 

practice and turned It over to 

other attorneys 

"It got to the pomt where

"Right now I am preSident of

Once Brucker's term IS over, 

he expects to stay active With

"What Habitat does," Said 

Brucker, "IS get people Involved 

m obtalnmg and mamtaInmg 

their own homes ReCipIents 

are reqUired to put at least 500 

hours of work or 'sweat eqUity' 

Into the house" 

The way the system works, 

Brucker said, IS that volunteers 

bUild a home 

The reCIpIent, who has 

mvested hiS or her own time 

and sweat, then pays a small 

mortgage and that money goes 

toward bUIldIng more homes 

for the dIsadvantaged and 

helps make the program selfsu~talnmg

Engler shows

Gov John Engler IS contmumg his

'But at the same time they want to partIcipate

That doesn't make sense. You can't have

However, the Michigan EducatIOn 

Report did prOVide a different Viewpoint 

from Paul DePree, a father of five who 

heads the Chnstlan Home EducatIOn of

New athletic probe at U-M 

The reVival of the basketball 

charges agamst a one-time 

Umverslty of Michigan booster, 

Ed Martm, on grounds that he 

had handed out cash and loans to former 

U-M stars IS womsome. 

We thought the earher investigation 

mto Martm's actiVltIes had upheld the 

Umverslty of Michigan's contentlon that 

nothmg senous had turned up. 

It turns out, however, that a federal 

grand JUry has focused on the case, WhICh 

apparently mcludes the questIOn of 

whether Martm had run 11legal gambhng

However, the DetrOIt Free Press said 

GOP shifts on gun controls 

The gun lobby's attempt to persuade 

the GOP to support weakened 

gun control measures has 

apparently faIled because of the 

bad publk: reactIon. 

In fact, the GOP members have mdlcated 

they now would approve a measure 

that child safety deVices be sold With 

handguns 

A SImilar measure was turned down a 

week earher when the National Rifle 

ASSOCIatIOnattacked It, but the GOP had 

falled to foresee the cntlcal pubhc reactIOn, 

whIch was soon eVIdent. 

Sen. Charles E Schumer, New York 

Democrat, asked the "Face the NatIon" 

TV audience a pertlOent questIOn: 

I 

toward the United States has always been 

tmged Wlth a drop of suspIcion, and the 

bombings have allowed dormant natIOnal- 

Ism and antI-Western sentiments to surge 

to the surface," she added. 

Meanwhile, U S and NATO bombers 

responded to the Chmese and RUSSIan 

critIcism of the all' war by targetmg 37 

targets Monday that mcluded renewed 

bombings on Belgrade 

In additIOn, NATO and Amencan offi.

Yugoslav forces had left the prOVince, and 

that NATO would contmue Its all' war 

untll Gen. Mllosevic had removed all of

Instead, NATO warned It would contmued 

to attack Mllosevlc's forces, even 

those III retreat, until he had removed all 

hiS troops and allowed hundreds of thousands 

of Albanian refugees to return to 

theIr homes 

DiplomatiC sources contmued to hmt 

that negOtlatlOns were m the aIr, but 

NATO dismissed such reports as part of 

Mdosevlc's propaganda 

And so the all' war blasts on. 

that Martm's poSSible financial connectIons 

Wlth players troubles mvestigators 

and has led to grand jury Issuance of subpoenas 

to former U-M players. 

Just how many former players are 

mvolved In the federal mqUlry IS not 

known, but It IS dlsappomting to U-M fans 

that new eVidence apparently has been 

turned up on a case that had been thought 

to be closed 

This time, however, we hope the federal 

grand jury and other investigators can 

Wlnd up theIr review of thIS case and nail 

Martm If, in truth, he has been runnmg 

gambhng and other illegal operatIOns on 

U-M basketball games. 

"Where IS George W Bush?," refemng 

to the Texas governor, the leadmg GOP 

candidate for presIdent "Does he really 

support closmg the gun show loophole? Or 

does he support this kind of Repubhcan 

sham?" 

A spokesman for Bush saId he supported 

legislatIOn that not only would reqUIre 

almost all sellers at gun shows to conduct 

background checks, but also would make 

sure that the seller had easy access to the 

technology and records needed to perform 

that task. 

The trouble Wlth that poSItion IS that 

the two parties have dIfferent VIews of 

what "easy access" to the necessary technology

Vacation or compulsion? 

Have you ever wondered why so many of us behave compulsively 

when prepanng to leave town? Ifwe weren't 

ready for a vacation at the outset, we certainly need one by 

the time we have prepared to be away from our homes It's 

kind a lIke cleaDing for the cleamng woman before she sees 

what a messy house you have 

How many of us have said we have packed enough and 

made enough preparatIOns to be away tWice as long as the 

allotted time? Every bme I leave town, I am thrown mto a 

frenzy of activity for days before the tnp For some 

unknown reason I feel that all the laundry must be 

washed, folded or ironed and put away. My desk, that has 

been buried m debns for months, must suddenly be cleared 

and orgamzed Items that have been left at the dry cleaner 

or shoe man for weeks suddenly must he pICked up BIlls 

must be p8.1dand rugs vacuumed Can't leave a chrty 

house Why? 

Errands that have been Ignored for months suddenly 

attam an urgency Valuables must be taken to the bank 

vault. plants all put In one place to be watered, newspapers 

and mail stopped etc There us a desperate need to orgamze,NOW 

Tlus past week I have been contacting Window washers, 

carpet cleaners and yard mamtenance crews Wlth great 

gusto Last mght I remInded myself that these chores were 

never tackled thiS early In the season and to back off and 

leave those mundane Jobs for when we return from vacabon 

There IS nothmg pressmg on the calendar tlus spnng, 

no wedding, no big party Relax girl! I've called fnends to 

make dates I cannot keep and had to cancel Why the hurry 

to have that lunch nght now when 111 only be away a short

'~t goes on WIth us? Are we subconscIOusly afraId we'll 

never return and people wdl thmk we were slobs and talk 

about it? If we're not around to hear the gOSSip, why would 

we care? 

Tlus time I have vowed to refram from bringing luggage 

down untIl two days before departure. Of course the spare 

bedroom IS pIled lugh With books and summer clothes,

[ 

The proposed pohcy on 

employee use of technology IS 

very SimIlar to the pohey m

"It IS a new reahty that we

"The pohcles of acceptable use 

spell out the dos and don'ts of

Astronomy students study 

the stars over California 

A group of Grosse Pomte 

North and South high school

van able stars 

The program through which 

they gam access to the telescope 

is Telescopes m

funded through NASA, the Jet

"What's unusual about thiS 

project IS that the students are

The t.elescope IS staffed each

Schools and amateur astronomy 

groups apply for tIme on 

the telescope Proposals are 

accepted and time on the telescope 

IS granted based on the 

ment of the group's Idea for 

use 

The research project IS twofold, 

but both areas mvolve the 

study of vanable stars 

One research goal IS the 

monitonng of a few selected 

vanable stars that have 

extremely short hght penods, 

gOlhg through a complete cycle 

of bnghtness changes W1tmn 

two to three hours By collecting 

as much data as possible, 

students are able to plot the

from that, determme some of 

theIr propertIes 

In add1tlOn to the stars, students 

are also monitonng 

Hubble's variable nebula, an 

unusual gas cloud that has

can curtail Research shows 

that damage ma) e,en be partially

I!>aVOIded 

The effects of sun on skm are 

not Simply premature agIng 

Rather, skIn that looks very old 

has undergone an entIrely different 

process than skm that 

has aged naturally 

Compare the skill on the 

back of your hand to the skm 

on the underSIde of your upper 

arm - an area usually protected 

from the !>un 

In most people the underarm 

skm Will be softer and less 

wnnkled than the skm on your 

hand that has been subject to 

cellular changes tnggered by 

outSide factors - pnmanly the 

sun 

Aged skm appears thm but 

relatively smoother and 

unblemIshed 

ExpreSSIOn hnes such as 

"smile creases" around the 

mouth are deepened and the 

Prime Time 

Itkm IS somewhat looser due to 

a loss of fat beneath It 

In a laboratory, one can !>ee 

under a microscope that the 

epidermiS of such skm may 

have thmned but the cells look 

normal 

Fortunately, haltmg the 

progress of damage from the 

sun IS as Simple as protectmg 

your skin from the rays New 

research suggest that past 

damage may not be Irreparable 

AnImal studies have shown 

that the skIn Will partly restore 

Itself If the sun IS aVOIded or a 

sunscreen IS used 

At the very least sun protection 

measures avert further 

damage. 

MOIstunzers won't do It The 

only over-the-counter cream or 

lotIOn that can help your skIn 

to look more youthful IS sunscreen.

Using your local environment 

In past columns, I've dIscussed 

the need to keep thmgs 

simple, express a smgle Idea 

and keep backgrounds slmphfied 

to assure the viewer's 

attentIOn will be directed 

toward the mam subject 

But there are times when 

usmg the environment as a 

backdrop can' add an extra 

dlmpnslOn to your pictures 

The environment, when used 

effectively,can make an otherwise 

ordmary photograph mto 

one that's extraordmary 

In a picture of a per"Oll,for 

example. what surrounds the 

subject can tell us somethmg of 

his or her IOterests, Job or 

SOCialstatus You'll often see 

environmental portraits where 

much ISlearned about the person 

by the "clutter" 10 the fin- 

Ished picture 

SometImes you mIght Just 

"stumble" onto a unique photo 

opportunity where the enVlronment 

can be a very Important 

mgredlent 10 the end result 

ThiS happened to Carol Gles of 

Bloomfield Hllls, on a recent 

tflP to Tampa 

,, 

t 

PhotoglAph)?:/ 

GleS, WIth camera 10 hand, 

was vlsltmg Busch Gardens, 

hopmg for some good photo 

opportunities As she rounded 

a bend 10 a pathway, she was 

greeted With a pattern of 

strong sunbeams filtermg 

through the trees, accentuated 

by mornmg mist 

At that moment, a young boy 

came sklppmg down the path 

and Gles, ever ready WIth her 

camera, captured the moment 

Youcan see by the photograph, 

shown here, how Important the 

environment IS m addmg 

Impact and drama to Gles' 

shot

Either way yOli win. 

Df'tails at any offif'f'. 

ThiS ISa pIcture that "tells a 

story" because of the mcorporatlOn 

of the environment 10 the 

photograph 

As m all good photography, 

pay attentIOn to IIghtmg and 

camera angle and choose the 

lens that Will enable you to 

mclude all that you want m the 

Vlewfinder 

Be sure to use an aperture 

small enough to place all the

than simply replace thmgs 

that were smashed and 

uprooted, orgaruzers have 

made slgmficant enhancements 

There's a new and more 

attractIve paVlhon to replace 

the one high winds blew into 

the lake m July 1997 The 

wooden snack shack has been

closed the beach m recent 

years In a related move, filament 

WIll be strung over the 

malO tanmng dock and lake 

sWlmmmg area to scare away 

'1E'agulls, whose droppmgs are

through the grassy area from 

the tenms courts to the outer

Community Was 'The Phantom Menace' a great film? 

The Pastor's Corner 

On a mission from God 

By the Rev. David E. Wick 

Grosse POinte Baptist Church 

I have a theory that many people define their 

hves in terms of a favonte movie. For example, I 

know a lot of guys who saw "Caddy Shack" and 

were changed forever. Phrases from that film like, 

"Be the ball" and "So I got that goin' for me," seeped 

not only into their speech patterns, but into their 

subconscious. 

"FIeld of Dreams" provided other guys Wlth this 

underlYing principle: "If you build It, they will 

come." 

My defining movie, for better or worse, is "The 

Blues Brothers." The line from that film with whIch 

I connected is this: "We're on a mission from God." 

The Implications being that, since God has given us 

thIS assignment, however improbable that may 

seem, nothing can stop us. It might not be easy, it 

mIght be dangerous, but we will complete the mission 

Of course I didn't get my sense of mission from 

"The Blues Brothers." I just heard that hne, saw the 

context, and saId, "That's me all right." 

I had already gotten my sense of mission from the 

Bible. The mission is two-fold: to work out my own 

salvatIOn with fear and trembling (Philippians 2:12- 

13) and to go into all the world and make diSCIples 

(Matthew 28:19-20). 

People who hear voices in their heads and think 

God is telling them to do something can be dangerously 

Ill. My sense of mission has an objective basis 

m the Bible and is consistent with an important 

part of the tradition of Christianity from its earliest 

days. It is not a matter of my iJnagination. 

HaVIng a real mission from God has not made my 

hfe easy. Sometimes that mission has led me into 

dangerous situations. But 8S the Blues Brothers 

dIscovered, bemg on that mission can also be a lot 

offun. 

Even better, if the mission really is from God, it 

can't fail. It will accomplish whatever purpose God 

has for it. This gives me a sense of purpose, meanmg, 

JOY and excitement about life. 

I have been deeply troubled by the terrible 

tragedy at Columbme High School. I think those 

two young men who murdered their classmates had 

sold themselves out to what Peggy Noonan has 

called "the culture of death." For them, life was 

meaningless and without purpose and God was not 

real. 

Can the evil that infected them and wrought such 

homble destruction be overcome? Of course it can. 

That is precisely God's mission for us in the 

world. We find, as we become part of that mission, 

purpose in life, meaning for our existence, value in 

ourselves, and deep, lasting joy. 

What is your mission?

Fitness and aging 

go hand-in-hand 

By Peggy Kurza 

Special Wnter 

When we thmk of aging, Images of canes and 

wheelchairs, shaky gaIts and fraIl physiques often 

come to mind 

But as people In our socIety live longer and longer, 

we're learning more about aging and we're finding 

out that becommg older doesn't mean trading In a 

strong, fit body for a creaky or feeble one. 

Makmg the nght choices can mean an active, independent 

lifestyle that 

extends years beyond 

what we may have 

thought poSSIble. 

While we can't change 

our age, we can change 

our quality of life and 

improve our level of fitness. 

People who begin 

an exercise program as 

late as their 60s, 70s 

and 80s see improved 

strength, flexibility and 

overall health. An 80year-old 

can be in better 

physical condition than 

he or she was as a 70- or 

75-year-old. 

The key is finding the 

Peggy Kurza right kmd of exercise 

and physical condition. 

mg If it's something you enJoy, you'll stay with it and 

reap the rewards 

Bon Secours Cottage Health Servtces otTers a complete 

menu of fitness classes for seniors. The Fitness 

IS Ageless program IS designed for anyone 55 or over 

and includes lOW-Impact aerobics, walking, strength 

condItlomng and floor exerCIses. 

The major muscle groups receive a complete workout 

10 Senior Strength and Conditioning class, and 

Yoga IS a favonte for flexibility, relaxation and energy. 

D1abetlc FItness addresses the specific exercise needs 

of those WIth dIabetes. 

The VIgor strength training program combines 

Nautllus machmes and hght weights. By limiting the 

SIze of the class, each partIcipant receives individual- 

Ized attention during the workout. Pre- and post. 

class strength test10g allow class members to see just 

how much they've improved over the course of the 

program. At the end of the Vigor class, participants 

are more flexible and stronger, with better overall 

conditIOning and improved posture. 

It's never too late to improve your fitness level. A 

man who partIcipated 10 Bon Secours Cottage's 

Diabetic Fitness class walked in the first day with a 

cane. In less than eIght weeks, he no longer needed a 

cane and was taking far less insulin to control his 

dIabetes. The exerCIse drastically Improved his range 

of motIOn, flexibility and leg strength, giving him 

renewed 10dependence and better overall health. 

Bon Secours Cottage Health Service's fitness programs 

also offer the chance to socialize and meet new 

people, which IS extra motivation for coming to class. 

Several members of the community have attended 

exerCIse Classes for 10 or more years. They started 

when they were in their 60s or 70s and have never 

stopped. Currently, participants in Bon Secours 

Cottage's semor fitness classes range in age from 60 

to 91.

New breast cancer biopsy 

techniq ue gets clinical trial 

St. John HospItal and 

Medical Center IS currently 

conducting clinical tnals of a 

new breast cancer bIOpsy procedure 

that can identify 

metastatic cancer in a way that 

18far less invaSIve than tramtionallymph 

node dissections. 

Known as the sentinel node 

biopsy, the procedure identifies 

the first lymph node, or sentinel 

node, that IS conSidered 

the pathway to the body that 

allows the cancer to spread, or 

metastasIZe By mssecting and 

examming the sentinel node, 

oncologists can determme 

whether a complete lymph 

node dissection is necessary to 

stop the spread of cancer 

"The standard of care today 

for breast cancer pabents is to 

do a complete axillary node mssection, 

whIch entaIls remov- 

Ing all of the lymph nodes that 

dram the breast In conjunction 

with a mastectomy or lumpectomy," 

slIld Dr. Cheryl Wesen, 

surgical oncologist at St John 

Hospital. "Sentinel node biopsy 

allows us to examIne the first 

draining lymph node more 

thoroughly and with special 

stlIlns." 

Up to four hours before the 

biopsy, the patient IS injected 

with a ramoactlve ISOtope 10 

tile area around the tumor. At 

the time of surgery, a blue 

mapping agent, or dye, is 

injected to identify the 

drainage route of the primary 

cancer. An instrument, known 

as a gamma probe, IS used to 

identify the sentinel node, 

whIch is then removed, sectioned 

and examined closely 

for evidence of cancer. 

"If the sentinel node IS cancer-free, 

the remaining lymph 

nodes are examined to make 

sure there isn't any cancer," Dr. 

Wesen said. "If cancer ISfound, 

a complete axillary dissectIOn 

would be camed out. 

"In the future we hope we 

Willbe able to omit the Blnllary 

mssectlOn m selected patients 

based on sentinel node mformation 

.. 

Clil11caltrials at other hOSpItals 

have shown that sentinel 

node bIOpsy is more than 99 

percent accurate In premctmg 

whether the remlIlmng lymph 

nodes contam cancer cells. 

"Sentinel node biopsy allows 

women to have a minimal 

amount of surgery for theIr 

breast cancer, as well as less 

disfigurement and discomfort," 

Wesen said. "I expect thIS procedure 

may become a standard 

treatment for early-stage 

breast cancer in the near 

future." 

Wesen IS seekmg candIdates 

to partlClpate in the chl11caltnals 

that are beIng conducted at 

St John HospItal Interested 

candIdates can call Wesen's 

office at (313) 343-3955

By Elizabeth P. Walker 

before he was thIrty-four years 

old, and then he had another 

career m Texas and m the 

UOlted States Senate " 

In the 18008 we have more 

glant figures such as Ralph 

Waldo Emerson whose bIOgraphy, 

"The Mmd on FIre" by 

Robert D Richardson Jr, 

appeared 10 1995 The author 

descnbes well what Ius subject 

looked like "He was a faIrly 

tall man He stood SIXfeet tall, 

whIch was tall In those days 

He dressed, vanous people 

saId, like a prosperOUb farmer 

He wore black SUItS, but so dId 

fanners 10 those days, and he 

had a coat and tie, but so dId 

his farmmg fnends People 

were much more, to our eye, 

formally dressed, but hIS 

clothes were sort of shabby, 

and they dIdn't fit terribly 

well When he took out hIs 

money to pay for hiS transat. 

lantIc passage, the captaIn 

noticed that he had tWIne 

wrapped around hIS wallet 

many times, he had to unwrap 

It all, take out the money, pay 

for the passage, wrap the wallet 

back up, put It back away 

When he stood up to lecture, 

he had a very plaIn style, and 

he read Ius lectures, though 

he practIced them and he 

knew where the emphaSIS 

would come many glven word 

It wasn't 'HItch your wagon to 

a star,' It was 'HItch YOUR 

wagon to a star ", 

Susan B Anthony takes the 

stage In Lynn Sherr's "FaIlure 

IS ImpOSSIble - Susan B 

Anthony m Her Own Words" 

Anthony wa" a tireless crusader 

for women's rIghts "She 

was a wonderful speaker She 

was very persuasive A lot of 

people didn't agree WIth her - 

In fact, the majonty Does It 

surpm,e you to learn that not 

only the majonty of men, but 

the majonty of women dId not 

want the nght to vote? Yet 

they found her so charmIng 

that they would lIsten to her 

ObVIously some people figured 

out that women are equal and 

women should have the right 

to vote What she was saymg 

was common sense After a 

decade or so of utter ndlcule, 

of bemg cancatured m cartoons, 

of bemg burned m effigy 

once, of havmg eggs thrown at 

her, It turned out people 

thought she was qUIte wonderful. 

Even If they dIdn't agree 

WIth her they had great 

respect for her" 

"EdIson Inventmg the 

Century" by Nell Baldwm IS a 

reveahng portraIt of the mventor 

of the phonograph and 

other electncal InventIOns that 

made lIfe much easIer by the 

beglnOlng of the twentieth 

century Edison "hved In 

MIlan, OhIO, till he was 8 

years old, and then hIS famIly 

moved to Port Huron, Mlch 

He worked for the Grand 

Trunk Railroad, whIch was a 

line that ran down to DetrOIt 

from Port Huron That was 

when he began pubhshIng Ius 

own newspaper on the tram, 

typesettmg It by hand, publishIng 

It, and selhng It to all 

the people on the traIn He 

also worked on hIS father's 

truck fann groWIng vegetables 

and sold those on the traIn 

He was extemely adept for a 

teenager." 

Nathan MIller's book, 

"Theodore Roosevelt A LIfe," 

appeared in 1992, a great 

introductIon to tlus very VItal 

man As Miller comments 

"Teddy Roosevelt beheved that 

hfe was a great adventure and 

the great sm was not hVlng 

f 

hfe as a great adventure He 

also dId a number of thmgs for 

the country The greatest 

thmg he dId was that he 

understood that the preSIdency 

Ib, as he ;,ald, 'a great bully 

pulpIt' Everybody copIes these 

words today He beheved the 

Job of the preSIdent should be 

to lead and to educate, and he 

tned to educate the Amencan 

people to the needs of the day" 

DaVId Mc('ullough'~ magmf- 

Icent bIography of Harry S 

Truman IS, in my OpInIOn, a 

stunnmg landmark book HIS 

"Truman, A Life" reveals the 

essence of the man and hIS 

courage and determInation to 

succeed 10 the preSidency As 

McCullough notes "He was a 

hfelong reader I asked 

Margaret one day, 'What 

would be your father's Idea of 

heaven?' She saId, 'Oh, that's 

easy. It would be a good comfortable 

armchair and a good 

readIng lamp and a stack of 

new hIstory and bIOgraphy 

that he wanted to read' He 

once saId that all readers can't 

be leaders, but all leaders 

must be readers, and partIcularly 

hIstory and bIOgraphy" 

And on It goes - a great 

rolling pantheon of great people 

showcased m all their 

glory as well as theIr IdIOSyncraSIes 

Most of these people 

step forth from theIr pages to 

meet admiratIOn from readers, 

hke me, who thnve on meetmg 

notable people from the 

past and the present Most of 

these 75 people dt'serve plaudIts 

- WIth one exceptIon, m 

my judgment 

ThiS IS Henry Ktssmger, former 

secretary of state, who IS 

revealed as a dIsagreeable, 

egotistical character, who still 

retams hIS hIgh-handed 

authonty over most everyone 

he does not consIder worthy of 

hIS attentIon or esteem 

Ktssmger, however, IS the only 

black spot on thIS othel'Wlse

It was the second time this 

Norsemen added their final

Paterek drew a two-out walk,

the bottom of the seventh on a 

two-run homer and when 

starter Mlchael Lane walked 

the next batter, Sumbers 

brought In Phil KozlowskI, who 

retired the SIde to pick up the 

save 

"It was our hottest, most 

humid day and I think it got to 

Lane at the end," Sumbera 

said "After the walk I asked

'I'm not as strong as I was.'

Show • Grosse Pointe NewsfThe Connection • Ma 20, 1999 

his year, as for the past 

six years, the Spring 

Boat Show will be coming 

to Metro beach 

Metropark, May 20 

through 23. With over 1,000 of the 

finest new and used boats to see, 

boaters and would-be boaters know 

this is the best opportunity of the season 

to make plans and purchases for summer 

fun. Large boats, ski boats, cruisers, 

sailboats, jet skis, dinghies, marine 

equipment and more will be assembled 

in one place for the four-day event, 

making this the nicest way possible to 

engage in one of the nicest sports possible. 

The beauty of the marinas at Metro 

Beach Metropark only enhances the 

boats on shore and in the water. 

Patrons can board the hundreds of 

larger boats at the dock and see how it 

feels to be aRoat. For those needing 

additional reassurance, a test drive on 

lake St. Clair can be arranged with tl,e 

exhibitors.

Plan for Summer Boating 

Fun at the Spring Boat Show 

On shore, trailerable boats, both 

new used, will be shined up and ready 

for viewing. Knowledgeable dealers, 

brokers and manufacturers will be on 

hand to answer questions and help you 

pick the perfect boat for you and your 

family. Also, a large tent will house 

marine equipment and related marine 

supplies. 

And, as if all this weren't enough, 

just consider this bonus From attending 

the Spring Boat Show; The dealers 

want to sell all the boats they bring to 

the show, so prices are generally lower 

than at any other time of year. They are 

anxious to show the public their products 

and they want a chance to show 

they're good people to deal with. How 

can you go wrong?

hether you're a boating 

enthusiast or want 

to be one, the place to 

see over 1,000 boats 

in one location is at 

the Spring Boat Show, 

May 20 through 23 at Metro Beach 

Metropafk. Hundreds of large boats 

are being shown in the water and more 

are disp1ayed on shore, along with a 

huge tent that houses boating accessories 

and services. But perhaps the 

most interesting feature of this event is 

that, unlike other boat shows, this is the 

one spot where dealers offer their previously 

owned boats, as well as their 

new nfodels. If you are looking to buy 

a boat, this is the place to be. 

As summer approaches and families 

make their vacation plans, many people 

consider the value of spending quality 

time together. It's long been 

acknowledged that one of the best ways 

to knit a family is on a boat; whether 

you're out for a three week cruise, a

week-end getaway or an afternoon of 

summer fun, boating is one activity that 

keeps all age levels happy. Kids love 

tubing, wake boarding or just jumping 

off the swim platform for water fun. 

Exploring new waterways, fishing or 

simply reading a book on the deck are 

wonderful ways to spend time together. 

No matter the size of your boat, you 

can use it in many ways; as a summer 

cottage, an outdoor patio for entertaining, 

a quiet getaway. Few things offer 

such a variety of uses. 

But to have all this fun, you need a 

boat, and the best way to see it all is to 

attend the Spring Boat Show. Dealers 

are anxious to show the boats they've 

taken in trade and stored all winter.

You Can Raise Your 

Child's IQ 

The strong link between a 

child's reading habits 

and developing intelligence 

should encourage 

parents to start children reading at an 

early age, say many experts in the field 

of educational psychology. 

"It was once assumed that children 

with higher IQs naturally learned to 

read sooner," says educational psychologist 

Dr. Greg Cynaumon. 

"However, evidence now suggests that 

encouraging a child to develop early 

learning skills-including reading-can, 

in fact, help lead to a higher IQ." 

Building a child's confidence is an 

important step toward helping them 

delve into the wonderful world of reading. 

It's never too early to begin instilling 

your child with pride in their 

abilities. 

Here are a few suggestions from the 

experts on how to get your children 

hooked on reading.

Prescription for Camper Homesickness 

summer, millions of children 

will get their first taste 

of independence at a summer 

resident camp. For 

many, it also will be their first experience 

with homesickness. However, parents 

don't have to feel helpless when 

homesickness strikes. The prescription 

for camper homesickness is a simple 

solution of preparation and patience. 

University of California psychologist 

Chris Thurber studied homesickness in 

329 boys between the ages of 8 and 16 

at resident camp. According to his 

results, homesickness is the norm rather 

than the exception. A whopping 83 

percent of the campers studied reported 

homesickness on at least one day of 

camp. Thurber and the American 

Camping Association suggest the following 

tips for parents to help their 

child deal with homesickness at camp. 

• Encourage your child's independence 

throughout the year. Practice separa-

light to Rnd the bathroom. 

• Reach an agreement ahead of time 

on calling each other. If your child's 

camp has a Uno phone calls" policy, 

honor it. 

• Send a note or care package ahead 

of time to arrive the first day of camp. 

Acknowledge, in a positive way, that 

you will miss yoUr child. For example, 

you can say, "I am going to miss you, 

but I know that you will have a good 

time at camp. N 

• Don't bribe. Linking a successful stay 

at camp to a material object sends the 

wrong message. The reward should be 

your child's newfound confidence and 

independence. 

• Pack a personal item From home, like 

a stuffed animal. 

• When a "rescue call" comes from the 

child, offer calm reassurance and put 

the time frame into perspective. Avoid 

the temptation to take the child home 

early. 

• Talk candidly with the camp director 

Page] 

to obtain his or her perspective on your 

child's adjustment. 

• Don't feel guilty about encouraging 

your child to stay at camp. For many 

children, camp is a first step toward 

independence and plays an important 

role in their growth and development. 

• Trust your instincts. While most incidents 

of homesickness will pass in a day 

or two, Thurber's research shows that 

approximately 7 percent of the cases 

are severe. If your child is not eating or 

sleeping because of anxiety or depression, 

it is time to go home. However, 

don't make your child Feel like a failure 

if his or her stay at camp is cut short. 

Focus on the positive, and encourage 

your child to try camp again next year.

by Jim Johnston 

Parents can help their children 

to be self-taught, 

"God" -taught, by a~tual 

intuition. Education should 

be a method to draw out and develop 

from the child the character, the faculties, 

the qualities, the aptitudes, and 

other potentialities that are latent in the 

child. The method of accomplishing this 

was first proposed by Harold W. 

Percival, a writer on educational and 

philosophical subjects. 

Early in the life of a new, growing 

body, the conscious Self begins to make 

psychic adjustments to thinking, feeling, 

and desiring, the story explains. 

InRuenced by physical senses, the child 

gradually identifies him or herself completely 

with the body and loses touch 

(e.g. 'Where.did I come from?") and 

to put special questions to the child. 

If the conscious Self is helped by parents 

in early childhood to revive the 

child's memory of "where I came 

from," the child's thinking will be centered 

on his or her self instead of on 

the body. The child may then be prepared 

to carry on with learning Selfknowledge. 

Percival's reputation was established 

mainly through his inspired editorials 

in "The Word" magazine, which he 

published from 1904-1917. The Word 

Foundation, Inc. was formed in 1950 

to make known to the people of the 

world all books written by Harold W. 

Percival and to ensure the perpetuation 

of his legacy to humanity.

Boosting Your 

Child's Self-Esteem 

IIaking the most of the 

"little moments" in your 

children's lives each 

day can do wonders for 

their confidence and self-esteem. 

Recent research has shown that 

instant photography is a powerful tool 

for parents to give their children positive 

reinforcement. Here are some fun 

tips from Polaroid and Diane 

Loomans, author of "Full Esteem 

Ahead," about how to boost your 

child's self-esteem each day: 

• Help your child tackle a big 

project-like cleaning his room-by 

capturing the before, during and after 

of the clean-up process with instant 

photography. Kids love seeing the 

result of their hard work and the 

photo will help them recall that feeling 

of accomplishment next time. 

• Foster your child's selfexpression 

and creativity by taking an 

instant photo of a "piece de resistance"-whether 

a sand casrle, finger-painting, 

snowman or mashed 

potato sculpture. 

• Make the most of instances 

when your child exhibits positive behavior-sharing 

toys with a sibling, taking 

out the garbage, helping Dad rake 

leaves in the yard. An instant photograph 

makes these moments special and 

becomes a positive reminder of how 

great "doing good" feels. 

• As yoyr children learn to 

roller-skate or practice their handwriting, 

take photos weekly or daily to 

capture step-by-step improvements. 

Your children can hold these images 

in their hands immediately, offering 

tangible proof of their progress.

Can high expectations prevent 

that child from doing 

well? 

That depends on how high 

those expectations are and how par- 

~ ents go about realizing them. If expectations 

are too high and parents place 

too much emphasis on perfection, children's 

self-confidence will suffer. 

To encourage rather than discourage 

children in broadening their horizons, 

use less criticism and more affection. 

Allowing children to participate in 

activities of their own choice and at 

their own pace builds confidence and 

independence. 

being pushy? 

How do parents avoid 

First, always remember to praise children 

no motter how mOny mistakes 

they make. A child deserves praise just 

for trying. If he or she continues to 

make the same mistake, then the par.

The important thing is to monitor 

whether or not the child is enjoying the 

activity. If he or she does not enjoy skiing 

(no motter how much you like it), 

then it is a disservice to make them 

continue. Thirdly, make all the activities 

fun. Children will enjoy reading more if

While reading a story, stop at an 

exciting part and ask the child what

sound a word makes. Play "I spy" (I

Pl. Ask them to name all the words they 

can think of that begin with the "g" 

sound. Having high expectations is 

fine as long as it is for the child's longterm 

benefit. 

When parental expectations interfere 

with social opportunities, these experiences 

become tasks rather than fun. If 

expectations are constanrly communicated 

in a critical or directive manner, 

it is harmful rather than beneficial to 

the child.

Apricot and pear 

giving trees of beauty 

There is an old tradition that 

tells that in King Solomon's 

palace there was a room painted 

with murals of apricot trees in full 

bloom. The flowers were so lifelike 

and the fruit so golden that guests 

could smell the wonderful aroma 

of the apricots as soon as they 

entered. 

Still known as "golden apples," 

apricots were brought to the 

Middle East from Armenia at the 

time of Noah. 

1bday, in Lebanon and Syria, 

apricots are a treasured staple. 

Many of the symbolic foods of 

modern Jewish cuisine include 

apricots, especially at the time of 

festivals and religious holidays. 

Apricots grow very abundantly 

in the Holy Land and are, in fact. 

the most abundant fruit of the 

region. along with figs. The apricot 

is a round headed, red-barked 

tree growing to about 30 feet tall, 

with heart-shaped leaves and pale 

pink or white flowers. The wellknown 

oval orange-colored fruit is 

somewhere between a peach and a 

plum in flavor. 

Many biblical authorities 

believe that it was the apricot 

which was the "apple" of the story 

of Adam and Eve and the Tree of 

the Knowledge of Good and Evil in 

the Garden of Eden. Apricots are 

also supposed to be the "apples" of 

Greek legend. 

Apricots came to England sometime 

during the Middle Ages and

The coming of Huguenot 

refugees to England was a great 

boon to both English gardening 

and agriculture in general. While 

the English gardeners had always 

been proud of their fruit trees, 

they learned about improved techniques 

and new varieties from the 

French. Many more kinds of fruit 

trees, including apricots, were 

grown and dwarf fruit trees began 

to appear. By the middle of the 

17th century England had an

White gold is stronger 

than yellow gold 

Q. Dear Jewelry Lady, isn't 

white gold an oxymoron? If gold is 

yellow in its natural state, than 

what exactly is white gold? Do 

jewelers just coat "white" gold to 

make it look like platinum? Silver 

and platinum lover. 

A. Dear Silver, you're absolutely 

right, gold is naturally yellow 

- and soft. So gold manufacturers 

add other metal or alloys to 

the mix to make the gold stronger, 

and in the process more colorful. 

White gold is made up of gold, silver, 

copper and either nickel or 

palladium, a metal of the platinum 

family. Because nickel is a 

common cause of skin allergies, it 

is banned for use in alloying in 

Europe. Because palladium is considered 

precious in its own right, 

and despite the fact that it is more 

expensive than nickel, its domestic 

use is growing. 

Q. Dear Jewelry Lady, I don't 

know if this is your department, 

but I love jewelry and my 

boyfriend doesn't seem to get the 

hint. He gets me practical gifts 

like a cappuccino maker and a 

waffle iron, but despite all my 

subtle and not-so-subtle hints, no 

jewelry. Any suggestions? 

Diamond-less Lil. 

A. Dear Lil, we've got to get that 

boyfriend of yours out of the 

kitchen and into a jewelry store. 

Perha ps you need to be less subtle. 

When it's nowhere near any 

gift-giving occasion, come right 

out with it. Tell him that you'd 

adore a gift ofjewelry. Offer to go 

window shopping so that you can 

show him what styles ring your 

chimes. This may work and it may 

not. But trust The Jewelry Lady, 

if he's perfect in every other way 

(well, let's say acceptable), don't 

let jewelry come between you. 

Statistics confirm that more 

and more American women don't 

wait for gifts. They march right

into j~welry stores and buy exactly 

what they like. It might take 

out the mystery of what's in that 

box - but it's awfully nice to 

know that it's exactly what you 

had in mind. 

Q. Dear Jewelry Lady, my jeweler 

made me sign the repair 

envelope, saying that I wouldn't 

hold his store responsible if something 

happened to my opal while 

they repair my ring. Is this a standard 

practice? Concerned opal 

owner. 

A. Dear Concerned, you have to 

look at this from the jeweler's 

point of view. Gems are fragile 

and valuable. Many are treated to 

make them look better (and often 

the treatment, such as fracturefilling, 

makes them vulnerable to 

damage). This creates a liability 

and a headache for a jeweler who 

is about to repair or size a ring. 

It's smart for each jeweler to make 

their customers aware of any dangers 

involved in repairs. Some 

even give you a quick peek into 

the microscope, so that you can 

see what they're worried about. 

But take heart, your jeweler is in 

no way relaxed at the thought of 

damaging your stone. Even if they 

ask you to assume the liability, 

they know that damaged gemstones 

aren't good for business. 

The Jewelry Lady is available to 

answer all your questions about 

gems and jewels. YOumay contact

Know your dirt 

the benefit of each type of soil 

Q. I am going to make a 

flowerbed and I need to add soil. I 

found out there are different types 

of soil. Can you tell me what is the 

best to use? 

A. There are many soil types 

including topsoil, peat humus, 

peat moss, compost, clay and 

sand. Most people think "black 

dirt" covers everything, but there 

are different benefits to each type 

of soil. Even the soil that you get 

in bags is different than the soil in 

bulk. 

Topsoil is the most common 

type of soil used for landscaping. 

Topsoil is good to use for areas 

that you need to add volume to. 

Most topsoil sold around here is 

sandy loam topsoil as opposed to 

clay loam topsoil. This does not 

mean that sand or clay is added to 

the soil, only to the texture of the 

soil. Since most of the area around 

here is clay, adding sandy loam 

topsoil will increase the drainage 

of your soil. 

A common misconception is that 

topsoil purchased is weed free. 

The opposite is true. Since topsoil 

and peat come directly out of the 

open fields there will always be 

weed seeds in the soil. Compost 

that has been properly processed 

'"~u.''' 

(t.)iJi)~,~~!Ha7 

will have far less weed seeds in 

the soil because of the high temperatures 

reached. When topsoil 

is spread out in your garden or 

lawn you will get weeds. 

Greenview Preen can prevent 

weed seeds from germinating in 

the garden if you apply it before 

the weed sprouts. 

Peat humus and peat moss are 

often mistaken for each other. 

Peat moss or sphagnum moss is 

very fibrous and helps to retain 

moisture as well as add organic 

matter to the soil. This soil is usually 

purchased in 2- or 4-cubicfoot 

packaged cubes. Peat humus 

is dark black soil almost like 

muck. The soil you buy in bags is 

from the peat producers. That is 

why both the peat and topsoil are 

black instead of the topsoil being

Home office spells smart 

in today's economy 

Working at home has become as 

common as playing at home. In 

fact, some employers will tell you 

the two are synonymous. . 

If you have turned the family 

den into a home office - via a 

complex remodel or by simple 

paint and wall covering - you are 

not alone. Since 1990, the number 

of telecommuters has grown at a 

rate of 15 percent a year mainly 

because of the convenience, tax 

and selling advantages. 

Let's check some of the reasons 

why working at home continues to 

make sense while the sting of 

eventually selling your palace 

with a place to work often is 

underestimated. 

Starting this year, it will be easier 

for taxpayers to deduct the 

cost of a home office.Toqualify for 

a deduction, the space must be 

used exclusively and on a regular 

basis for either the entire business 

or its administrative and 

management activities 

The management provision was 

added in the Taxpayer Relief Act 

of 1997. It enables a home office 

deduction to be available for any 

trade or business of the taxpayer 

as long as there is no other fixed

locatIOnwhere the taxpayer "conducts 

substantial administrative 

or management activities of the 

trade or business." The deduction 

is not curtailed if assoc'iates at 

other locations perform some 

management or administrative 

activities (such as mailings). 

A home office deduction is comprised 

mainly of depreciation, 

utilitles and insurance. For example, 

if a home has 2,500 square 

feet and the old den used as the 

office is 250 square feet, then 10 

percent of the utilities and insurance 

are deductible. 

The actual officedepreciation is 

10 percent of what would be a 

depreciation deduction if the 

entire home were being depreciated 

for tax purposes. (Depreciation

L,~~Q!J",~~O~1}~':-,._~. if 

The other day when my husband 

was leaving for work, he 

asked me where I would be doing 

the food-shopping this week. 

When I told him, he was surprised. 

It was a supermarket I 

don't frequent that otten. 

My reason for this is simple. 

When I receive the various flyers 

from area supermarkets, I carefully 

peruse each one. Then I 

match the week's sales with the 

items on my list. The supermarket 

with the best sales matched to 

my list "wins." It's as simple as 

that. 

You'll find that if you do this, 

you'll save money. There's no reason 

for any particular loyalty to a 

supermarket. Granted, some have 

better produce or meat than others. 

But I consider that a small 

thing when compared with the 

savings I'm getting. Generally, I 

find the quality difference to be 

minimal anyway.

Cows and cow-related collectibles 

were the rage during the 

1980s. Some just wanted collectibles 

that pictured the animal. 

Others became fascinated with 

the history and tools of the dairy 

industry. 

Cows have been a popular part 

of advertising since the mid-19th 

century. Trade cards and labels 

for milk-based beverages, shortening 

using butter, condensed 

milk and cheese used the obvious 

symbol of a cow. 

A few cow trademarks remain 

famous. Cow Brand Baking Soda 

and Elsie, the Borden cow,are the 

best remembered. 

Cow collectors always want 

more - including dairy equipment, 

milk bottles, ice cream containers 

arrd anything else related 

to the cow and its milk. 

Q. I found a barrel-shaped 5inch 

mug in my parents' attic. It 

has a handle that looks like a

the bottom says "Twin Winton." 

How old is it? 

A. Your mug is one of several 

ceramic pieces in a series called 

"Hillbilly Humor." The series was

Studios. Most pieces have a han-

Safe mowing 

tips offered 

byUL 

More than 60,000 people were 

treated last year In hospital 

emergency rooms for lawn mower 

injuries - casualties of bums, 

thrown-objects, falls, dismemberment 

and electric shock. Avoid 

being a statistic this season by 

followin~ some common-sense 

safety bps from Underwriters 

Laboratories Inc. (UL) when 

operating your lawn mower. _ 

• Before operating your mower, 

make sure you have read the 

owner's manual thoroughly, noting 

all safety and operating 

instructions. 

• If you have a gasoline-fueled 

mower, store the gas in a UL 

Listed safety can. Fill the mower 

outside, using a funnel to prevent 

spills. Shy away from possible 

ignition sources and replace the 

gas cap firmly when done. Before 

starting the mower, be sure it is 

on level ground. 

• Electrically powered lawn 

mowers should not be used on wet 

grass. Use .an extension cord 

designed for outdoor use and 

rated for the power needs of your 

mower. To reduce the risk of cutting 

the cord while you're mow- 

ing, start mowing in the area 

nearest the electrical outlet, then 

mow away from the outlet so the 

power cord will be behind you. 

• Make sure all safety guards 

are in place and keep the mower's 

blades sharp. If you do hit a foreign 

object or have a mower malfunction, 

remember to turn off 

the mower and disconnect the 

power cord before inspecting for 

damage. 

• Keep your hands and feet 

away from mower's blades. Never 

reach under the mower for any 

reason while the mower is in 

operation and make all adjustments 

with the motor off. 

• Safe footwear is important, 

especially with walk-behind 

mowers. Make sure your shoes 

provide good traction to reduce 

slipping and have sturdy sales to 

resist punctures. Never work 

barefoot or in sandals, canvas 

shoes, etc. 

• Never leave a lawn mower 

operational while unattended. 

Curious children, eager to help 

out, may get seriously injured. 

For more information, visit 

UL's Web site at www.ul.com or 

call (800) 473-4766.

Real Estate 

From page 9 

is not allowed on a typical principal 

residence, 80 the square 

footage allotted to "residence" 

would not qualify.) Supplies and 

other expenses directly related to 

the home office are fully 

deductible. 

The area used for your home 

business can be depreciated using 

the 39-year, straight-line depreciation 

method. The lower of your 

home's adjusted cost basis, or its 

market value on the day business 

use began, can be the starting 

points. 

However, all these benefits do 

come at a price. The new tax law 

states that if you sell your home 

at a gain after May 6, 1997 any 

depreciation for a home office will 

have to be "recaptured." That 

means that any profit on the business 

portion is taxable as capital 

gain. 

In a capsule, if you bought your 

home for $150,000 and sold it for a 

net figure of $300,000, your capital 

gain would amount to 

$150,000. Because the business 

portion does not escape th.e new 

primary residence exclusions, 10 

percent, or $15,000 (the 250 

square feet of office space) would 

be taxable. 

One way of possibly avoiding 

the home office tax would be to 

Page 13 

eliIbinate your home business two 

years before selling the home. 

Because depreciation can be confusing, 

it's always best to consult 

an accountant or a tax attorney. 

The Internal Revenue Service's 

Publication 587 "Business Use of 

Your Home" is accessible on the 

Internet at 

http://www.ustreas.gov. 

Homes that can accommodate 

an office are becoming as desirable 

a selling point as any other 

home amenity. That's because 

when potential home buyers 

intend to make a living from a 

specific space within the new 

home, they choose a home that 

meets both their living and working 

requirements. 

While resale homes often have 

to be remodeled to include homeoffice 

space, many designers are 

helping builders with new plans 

that include one room that's versatile 

and can be easily identified 

as a home office. In fact, some real 

estate agents say home offices 

sometimes help make or break a 

sale in a relocation situation, 

especially those involving double 

incomes. 

One breadwinner working solely 

(lut of the house? That oncecommon 

situation has simply 

become difficult to find.

Q. I am writing to you because I 

need your help. We built a new 

home in '91 and had tile floors put 

in the kitchen and three bathrooms. 

Now the grout in the tile 

looks dusty. When you mop it and 

it's still wet, it looks good, but as 

soon as it dries, it looks dusty 

again. What can I do to correct 

this problem? 

A. Fortl1Ilately, there is an easy 

solution for your problem. 

For starters, you must be sure 

the rooms are very well-ventilated 

before you do what I suggest. 

Fill a clean bucket with chlorine 

bleach. Then simply take a sponge 

mop and mop the floors with the 

bleach, paying careful attention to 

the grout in the tiles. Let it dry 

completely. Go over the floor with 

a clean sponge-mop and clear 

water. Let that dry completely. 

This should take care of YOJlr 

grout, making it as clean as when 

you first had the tiles installed. 

Many people with tile floors 

complain of the same problem. 

While tile floors are quite attrac- 

Help .-_/J 

tive and aU the rage, so to speak, 

the grout does soil eal';l1y. 

However, if you periodically clean 

the floors with bleach, you'll be 

able to keep it clean. 

The reason for ventilating the 

rooms well is because bleach 

emits very heavy fumes which can 

easily overpower you as you work. 

In fact, not only should you have 

all the windows open in those 

rooms, but it wouldn't be a bad 

idea to have fans circulating air as 

you work. This way, you'll be sure 

you're safe. 

I suggest wearing goggles as 

well. This may sound a bit outlandish, 

but. it will protect your 

eyes from any fumes. You won't 

have to work with your eyes constantly 

tearing as you clean. 

Of course, keep pets and children 

away from those rooms until 

you've completed your task.

From page 7 can help you determine which 

brown. Peat humus is sometimes 

used for top dressing beds because 

of the dark black color. 

Growing in popularity for garden 

use is compost. Compost is 

the end product produced from 

the recycling process of your grass 

clippings, leaves and other garden 

debris. This highly organic soil is 

loaded with nutrients for your 

garden and will help keep your 

soil loose as well as help retain 

moisture. Top dressing your lawn 

with compost will help break 

down the thatch and give the 

lawn some loose soil in which to 

grow. 

Adding compost to your garden 

will help your acid loving plants 

grow better. In fact, adding compost 

to your soil will help all your 

plants grow better. I have found 

that a 50/50 mix of topsoil and 

compost makes a great planting 

mix. The topsoil. adds drainage 

and volume and the compost adds 

organic material and moisture 

retention capabilities. 

If you buy "fill dirt" always 

check what it. is you are getting 

before you buy. Fill dirt should 

only be used if you are filling a low 

spot over 6 inches deep. Fill dirt 

should not be all clay or contain a 

lot of foreign matter like rocks or • 

wood. 

RemE-mber that topsoil is .for 

volume and compost is for soil 

enrichment. Before you buy soil it 

is best to let the salesperson know 

what you are using it for. They 

type will be best for your situation.

~lways spill some. One day, 

:Stephanie, my 12-year-old daughter 

couldn't find the can opener so 

she used the old type can opener 

(round on one end and triangle at 

the other). Using the hote puncher 

end, put seven holes really close

GRASS PLUGS - Those of us

use grass plugs to fill in bare spots

This is my method of planting 

plugs. I take a one-pound can 

from any food product, empty the 

can (remove both ends of the can 

with an electric can opener so 

there are no jagged edges). Put 

the can (end down) in the spot

halfway into the soIl. Turn the can 

around carefully - at least a turn 

and a half or two turns. Lift out 

the can carefully; the soil WIll 

remain in the can, leaving a hole 

Just the size of the plug. Put the 

grass plug in the hole after you've 

added one teaspoon of 18-18-6 fertilizer. 

Tamp it down with your 

foot and push the soil out of the 

can. Work it in around the grass 

plug. This works like a charm. (Be 

sure to water grass plugs after 

planting.) Vivian D., Ormond
