Elmer Mohr, Davenport, poses with her afghan in the exposition building at th Mississippi AT THE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY FAIR Fresh milk and drinking water right out of the faucet are but a few of the things Americans naturally take for granted that First Lt. and Mrs. Robert E. Shuldt are appreciating upon their return to the states from Taiwan, Formosa. They arrived in Davenport this week at the home of his parents, the Henry 0.

Shuldts, are vacationing for a few days in Indiana and hope to renew friendships in the Quad-Cities before the 20th when they go to Lowry AFB in Denver. Bob will be an administrative officer in the technical training center. Meanwhile, the couple find themselves saying over and over that Americans perhaps don't realize how thankful they should be for so many things. In Taiwan their house, as are all American homes, was surrounded with a seven foot wall. The latter is an attempt to combat the theft problem.

All Americans, according to the Taiwanese, are wealthy and in that country it is not considered wrong to steal from the rich. They were there for two years and according to Sally Shuldt, all three children (Kim, 4, Brad, 3, and Kari, 2,) thrived on powdered milk. Housekeeping is a bit more laborious than that to which she was accustomed. Because of the unsanitary conditions, all vegetables and fruits had to be soaked in a household bleach solution for 30 minutes. All water must be boiled.

All bills are paid to collectors who come to the door. For this reason, the native help employed by the Shuldts helped immeasurably with the language barrier. Both Mandarin and Taiwanese are spoken and the former is most difficult to master. The tone of the voice speaking Mandarin determines what is meant i.e., four tones meaning four different things. With the prospect of experiencing their first winter, the Shuldts will have to buy heavy clothing for all three children.

Prior to coming to Davenport the family visited with her parents, the William G. Accolas of Des Moines. Conference In Europe It was tempting but Barb Classon, daughter of the Warren Classons of Davenport didn't cheat on customs. She and Sue Zimmerman, daughter of the Fred Zimmermans of Davenport, are back from the International Youth Conference in Stavanger, Norway, as delegates from the Davenport Y. "I kept thinking," said Barb "that I would really be cheating Uncle Sam." The girls were two of the 224 delegates from 27 nations.

After the 10 day session, during which Barb resided with a family in Stavanger, the U.S. delegation broke up into seven tour groups. Barb favored Copenhagen, where the group spent four days, because it has all that New York has to offer without the hustle and bustle. Pedestrian Street was fascinating with the beatniks sitting in the street drawing with chalk, hopeful that money would be tossed to them. Negative aspect of that city was the greeting given to the U.S.

Navy servicemen spending a leave there. What was reported to be a small Communist minority, had painted in large orange letters S. Out of Viet Nam." Handbills saying the same thing were being distributed at Tivoli and many Danes were very apologetic to the Americans for the demonstration. A morning was spent in East Berlin where they were told it was mandatory to exchange a minimum amount of $1.25 into five marks. Whatever amount has been exchanged and not spent must remain there.

Though the hours were precious they still had to stand in line at the checkpoint for about an hour. In retrospect, Barb feels the conference and tour were, of course, invaluable. "The opportunity to meet so many from so many countries helps to strengthen your own beliefs and also do some re-evaluating." She Stitched And Won Auxiliary Plans Ball For Sept. 24 The Home Builders Auxiliary of Scott County hope to continue their decorating endeavors in the Col. Davenport home on the Rock Island Arsenal with proceeds from the annual Parade of Homes Ball.

Mrs. Jack Hopper, Betten-dorf, is general chairman for the annual party which will be Sept. 24 in the Beaux Arts Hall at Hotel Blackhawk. The auxiliary recently acquired two additional pieces of furniture and accessories for the home. At the moment plans are to use dance proceeds for draperies.

Other committee members are Mrs. James Bittner, Bet-tendorf, tickets; Mrs. Jay Schroeder, Davenport, decorations, and Mrs. Pete Newman, Pleasant Valley, "A deft stitch in time" may win a blue ribbon and a trophy at the Mississippi Valley Fair. At least it did for Mrs.

Elmer Mohr, 2414 Armil Place, Davenport, whose crocheted afghan was judged best of the show. The three-paneled white afghan decorated with crocheted pink roses and tasseled corners will be used as a gift, Mrs. Mohr said. This homemaker has worked on the blanket off and on for almost a year. "I crochet as a hobby and I find it very relaxing," she said.

Mrs. Mohr is not a novice at fair competition and her ether entries in the needlework contest also received ribbons. She confesses that the materials used in making an afghan can be quite expensive (they must be all wool and a label describing the material must be enclosed with the entry) but she says she shopped around to find the best buys. The crochet artist now may enter the 1966 national wool needlework contest but says she hasn't made a decision yet.

JOHN WEBER Wedding Vows Are Spoken MRS. JOHN DECKER THE GIRLS fit HOUSEHOLD Both remainders of soap, or detergent, and all food particles should be thoroughly rinsed away with very hot water and anyone can heat an enormous amount of water for the cost of being sick only one day. The best rule is to use hot running water for rinsing so that the dishes (not to mention cooking utensils and silver) will drain dry very quickly. Dish towels, while they make nice presents for bridal showers, probably do much more harm than good. As they get damp, they readily pick up germs and distribute them over dishes.

Hot water and letting dishes drain dry is the safe way. Dr. Molner welcomes all reader mail, but regrets that due to the tremendous volume received daily, he is unable to answer individual letters. Readers' questions are incorporated in his column whenever possible. DR.

JOSEPH G. MOLNER Dear Dr. Molner: A friend of mine has recently acquired a habit of rinsing her dishes in the sink. She uses hot water but the sink is always dirty with grease rings and bits of food when she fills it. Also the rinse water is as soapy as the wash water when she is half done.

I have heard that not rinsing the dishes can cause minor illness and would like your opinion. She certainly means well, but her family's health is more important than the few cents she saves on water and gas. MRS. S. You're perfectly right.

The smears of grease and food particles can decay and provide a convenient breeding place for any of the common germs that happen to be around. Such mischievous germs are the invisible cause of a good many upset stomachs and cases of diarrhea, and occasionally something worse. Keep toast hot for a few minutes this way; arrange slices on a rack and place in a warm oven until served. Never stack hot toast. It wilts.

Fabric Hint When buying upholstered furniture, look for fabric that is rugged as well as attractive. Avoid fabrics with long, floating threads if the furniture is to get rough treatment. These threads tend to break and snag. Lind-Grandinetti Salem Lutheran Church, Moline, was the setting for the Friday evening wedding of Miss Linda Lee Lind and Michael Anthony Grandinetti.
