A court will only emancipate you if it is in your best interests. You must prove you are responsible enough to live on your own. This in- cludes being able to support yourself. You usually must stay in school. You must check in with the court on a regular basis. You might have to check in with an advisor. The court can take the emancipation away from you if it decides it is not in your best interests. For more information, please visit the Families & Kids sec- tion of www.Mon- tanaLawHelp.org.

Fallon Count) Timely -Tips By Sherry Vogel Dryer sheets were invented in the 1960s by a chemist to help his wife with the laundry. They were first called \Tum- ble Puffs\. Here are a few practical tips for dryer sheets. • Revive your iron - Clean the metal plate by laying out two sheets of paper towels, with a dryer sheet on one of them. Run the warm iron across the dryer sheet, then over the second towel. • Calm pets - Two reasons your dog hides during storms is the thunder, but also be- cause of the static electricity that fills the air and accumu- lates in your pet's hair causing discomfort and anxiety. Gen- tly rub an unscented dryer sheet across his body to pre- vent static from building up. • Minimize friction - When rubber soled shoes make con- tact with the floor they some- times cause a high-pitched chirp. Run a dryer sheet on your soles - the residue will minimize friction and sound. • Prevent bug bites - Tie a Bounce dryer sheet to your lawn chair or belt loops to ward off mosquitoes. Linalool and beta-citronellol,chemicals found in this specific brand. repel these pesky insects.
