Cheek Pool for
Winter Damage
Before Filling It
NEW YORK (UPl)—Proper
steps taken before the first
water is run into home swim
ming pools will assure trouble
free summer enjoyment of
clear, sparkling water.
First step is to remove pro
tective winter covers from pool
and equipment and sweep inside
of pool and surrounding areas
clean of debris and dirt. Then
inspect pool to determine If any
cracking of walls or floor has
occurred or if painting or re
finishing is needed. Examine all
exposed valves, controls and
pipes for deterioration.
If all is proper, turn on water
to fill pool. Again examine all
exposed valves, controls and
pipes for leakage. Dried gaskets
may solve minor seepages that
will stop by themselves as they
absorb water and expand. If
not, tightening with a wrench
or replacing packing will be
necessary.
If any major leaks are found,
turn off the water and call’ for
professional help.
While the pool is filling check
filtration equipment for oper
ational readiness. Follow manu
facturer’s recommendations for
oiling and cleaning necessary
prior to putting your pool filter
into operation.
Most modern filters are of
the diatomite type, and proper
precoating of filter elements
will assure efficient operation
and cle&r water.
This is accomplished by cir
culating a slurry, or mixture, of
diatomite and water into the
filter to provide a coating about
1/16 of an inch thick on the
elements.
Depending upon the fre
quency with which the pool is
used, the temperature and the
efficiency of chlorination, most
filters require cleaning at three
to 10-day intervals. Filter cycles
can be extended by proper care
of the pool.

SUBURBIA, U.S.A. (UPI)
There is a suburban house on
Long Island Sound with two
Jaguars usually parked in the
driveway.
One has a license plate,
“HISN,” and the other “HERN”.
That is, about as gooey, I
guess as high-class togetherness
can get.
“Togetherness” has taken
quite a beating in the last few
years. Actually, it's not a bad
commodity. It’s a lot better than
“apartness.”

A friend was telling us the
other d*y about a commuter in
Scarsdale who became so en
grossed in his work, to the ex
clusion of his family, that he
and his wife parted.
It was not a bitter separation,
but it appeared to be a pretty
final one. He moved into the
city and took a small hotel
room. His wife and their two
young daughters remained in
the Scarsdale home and he took
care of their expenses.
The man was miserable. He
wanted to go home again. His
wife was not agreeable. When
he telephoned, she refused to
talk with him.
Now this man was employed
on Madison Ave.'and he had a
better than average understand
ing of the communications me
dia. Also, he never underesti
mated the power of children-.
He knew that every morning
his two small girls, while get
ting ready for school, watched
the Dave Garroway show on
television. Part of the show, in
those days, involved panning
the cameras in on a crowd mass
ed on the sidewalk looking
through a big window into the
studio at the monkey and other
attractions.
So every morning for a week,
the man took his place with the
crowd on the sidewalk. He did
not shave. His clothes were
rumpled. He looked just as he
felt—awful.
And out in Scarsdale every
morning that week, his children
saw their father on television.
They called to their mother and
she came and took a look, too.
The fifth day she phoned him
to come home.
, There is something about
small girls that is irresistible.
I know one who went with
her dad and mother and her bro
ther to a wedding last summer.
It was a beautiful June day and
the bride’s parents had the re
ception in their backyard.
When the bride went upstairs
to change to her going-away
outfit, one of her uncles came
around giving all the guests a
handful of rice. He gave some
to the little girl.
As the newlyweds ran out to
their car, the rice was shower
ed on them. The little girl threw
hers with glee. Then she turn
ed to her mother.
“Why are we throwing the
rice at them?” she asked.
“If it hits them, they will
have children,” the mother re
plied.
“You mean they only hit you
and daddy with two pieces?”
she said.
Yes, she’s quite a little girl.
She’s ours.
