• On July 23, 1888, Ray-mond Chandler, creator of detective Philip Marlowe, is born in Chicago. During the Depression, Chandler

turned to writing to support himself. He published his novel “The Big Sleep” in 1939, followed by “Farewell My Lovely” and “The Long Goodbye.”• On July 25, 1917, in Paris, exotic dancer Mata Hari is sen-tenced to death by a French court for spying on Germany’s behalf during World War I. Since 1903, Margueretha Ger-truida Zelle had performed in Paris as a dancer under the name Mata Hari, claiming she was an Indian priestess. • On July 21, 1925, John T. Scopes is convicted of violating

Tennessee’s law against teaching evolution in public schools. The case was only for show, and the jury only conferred for a few moments. The American Civil Liberties Union had advertised for a teacher who would let himself be arrested to challenge the law and open it for public debate.• On July 26, 1941, President Franklin Roosevelt seizes all Japanese assets in the United States in retaliation for the Japanese occupation of French Indo-China. Britain and the Dutch East Indies followed suit. The result: Japan lost access to three-fourths of its overseas trade and 88

percent of its imported oil.• On July 24, 1959, during the grand opening ceremony of the American National Exhibition in Moscow, Vice Presi-dent Richard Nixon and Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev engage in a heated debate in the middle of a model kitchen set up for the fair. The “kitchen debate” became one of the most famous episodes of the Cold War.

• Those who study such things say that penguins are ticklish.

• On the whole, Texas is a good bit hotter than Ohio, wouldn’t you think?

You might be surprised to learn, then, that on a per capita basis, Cleveland has 42 times as many swimming pools as Fort Worth.

• Smiling is a natural human instinct. Even people who have been blind since birth smile when they’re happy.

• Ireland has the distinction of being the first nation in the world that had one woman succeed another woman as head of state, when, in 1997, Mary MacAleese was elected president after Mary Robinson served in that position.

Q: My father sold insurance during the 1950s, and I never saw him ever leave the house for work with-out wearing a crisp white shirt with French cuffs. Needless to say, I have several dozen sets of his cuff links from this period. Is there an expert I can con-tact so I can find out more about them? -- Millicent, Canton, Ohio

A: Eugene Klompus is a collector and expert. He buys, sells and appraises cuff links, and he is the

Cuff Links

"Collecting" is brought to you each week by Old Hospital Mall Antiques of Wilmot, SD

continued on page 9

author of the definitive guide about them, “Collectors Guide to Cuff Link Collecting.” Contact is P.O. Box 5970, Vernon Hills, IL 60061; [email protected]; and www.justcufflinks.com. Check out his web-site at www.justcufflinks.com.

• • •Q: My son was a comic-book collector, and he was

especially interested in vintage publications from the 1940s and ‘50s. He died last year, and I have inher-ited his incredible collection, which has hundreds of rarities. I do not want to post them on eBay and won-der if you have another idea of how I can sell them. -- Betty, Walnut Cree, Calif.

A: Heritage Comics Auctions is one of the better solutions, with offices in several major American cit-ies, including Heritage Comics, 445 Park Ave., New York, NY 10022, 212-486-3500; and Heritage Com-ics, 478 Jackson St., San Francisco, CA 94111, 800-872-6467. Check out the informative website at www.heritagecomics.com.

Although there are several price guides available, a personal favorite is The Official Overstreet Comic Book Price Guide by Robert M. Overstreet, published by House of Collectibles. It features up-to-date prices that I think accurately reflect the marketplace.

Did You Know What a Farkleberry is? Vaccinium arboreum [ar-bor-E-um] is a shrub (rarely a small tree) growing to 3–5 m (rarely 9 m) tall. The leaves are evergreen in the south of the range, but deciduous further north where winters are colder; they are oval-elliptic with an acute apex, 3–7 cm long and 2–4 cm broad, with a smooth or very finely toothed margin. Sparkleberry grows on sand dunes, hammocks, dry hillsides, meadows, and in rocky woods. It also grows on a variety of moist sites such as wet bottomlands and along creek banks.

The flowers are white, bell-shaped, and 3–4 mm in diameter with a five-lobed corolla, produced in ra-cemes up to 5 cm long. The fruit is a round dry berry about 6 mm in diameter, green at first, black when ripe, edible but bitter and tough.

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: We’re planning to drive across the country and want to bring along our dogs, “Trudy” and “Jake.” We’ve never done a trip like this before, though, and I hear that there are not many pet-friendly hotels or campsites. Is that true? -- Carl C., Trenton, N.J.

DEAR CARL: Actually, the number of pet-friendly accom-modations in the United States is increasing, with even some high-end hotels offering pet perks such as rooms customized with sleeping areas, and food and water dishes.

Many campgrounds allow dogs, as long as they are leashed and do not disturb other campers.

A number of books and websites are available that list pet-friendly places. Check out BringFido.com to search for places to stay during your trip.

For a cross-country drive, plan your route based on those pet-friendly accommodations. How long do you plan to drive each day? Will you be stopping to sightsee? Are there times when you have to be dog-free (such as going out for a nice dinner), and need to keep them in a safe place like a day kennel?

You’ll also need to keep the dogs safe while in the vehicle, so look into purchasing either dog restraints (sort of a seat belt for dogs of different sizes) or sturdy carriers, or both. Remember to never let the dogs sit alone in the car, even with the windows down -- it’s incredibly dangerous.

If you have time before the big drive, try taking the dogs on a long one-day drive or an overnight trip, so both you and they get used to the idea of traveling some distance.

With some careful planning, you can bring your dogs along and have a very enjoyable, safe trip.

Taking Pets on the Road

Q: While doing a quick visual scan of the roof, I noticed a couple of areas where the asphalt shingles were chipped or even lifted a little. I didn’t find any leaks in the attic. Do I need to completely replace these shingles? -- Don C., via email

A: If a shingle is chipped but mostly intact, and the surrounding shingles are OK, you can get away with patching it. The repair may last only a couple of seasons, but it can protect your roof in the short term.

To patch a shingle, take a spare shingle of the same material and cut it to the size of the damaged area. Remove any dangling or jutting pieces from the damaged sec-tion. Tack the new piece of shingle into place using roofing cement.

Shingles that are torn or buckled, missing, or areas with several damaged shingles will benefit more from replacement than patching. Purchase replacement shingles at the home-improvement store, along with repair tools and supplies including roofing cement, tack hammer or roofing-nail gun, pry bar and spare roofing nails.

Check out the YouTube video titled “Replacing a Damaged Roof Shingle” for a quick-and-dirty primer on replacing shingles.

As you can see, the shingles above the damaged area need to be lifted slightly (be careful not to break them) so the roofing nails holding the damaged shingle in place can be removed. Once the nails are removed, loosen and slide the damaged shin-gle downward and out.

Slide the replacement shingle into the same spot. If holding the shingle in place is difficult, put a couple dots of roofing cement on the underside just to hold it in place while you secure it.

Work your way back up, putting new roofing nails near the same spots that you removed the old ones from. Re-secure the loos-ened shingles above with new nails.

As always, remember that safety comes first when working up on the roof. Al-ways have a partner helping to steady the ladder, and use a safety line. Move along the roof in a crouch, rather than standing up, which could cause you to lose your balance. If you don’t feel confident in working at that height, contact a profes-sional roofer to handle the repair. The National Roofing Contractors Association can provide advice and guidance in finding a contractor.

HOME TIPCheck the weather

forecast before starting roofing repairs: The ma-terials need several days of dry, warm weather to

cure completely.
