Sharp cutting shears, either with plain or pinked edges, are essential. You also may like to have a small pair of nicely sharpened scissors for cutting notches. Have plenty of pins, threaded needles, chalk, tape measure and ruler at hand. Unless you have a large table which can be padded, it'a best to use the floor. A surface that allows plenty of room, as well as one from which pieces of pattern and materi al won't slip off, is essential to good cutting. Never try to cut fabric that is wrinkled or torn at an angle. Some materials will need pressing to smooth them before cutting is done. If the uncut edge is not smooth.

Mon p Study Fabrics Before Cutting When you plan to cut napped fabrics, lay the pattern pieces on it so that all pieces point the same way. This is done so that the nap will all run the same way when the garment is finished. Velveteen, corduroy and velvet are some of the more common naped fabrics, and they should be studied so that you will know how to cut them. If you are in doubt as to whether the fabric is napped, feel it If it has the feeling of fur, you will know It is napped. Sheen fabrica also must be stud ied before cutting, and here again, it is Important to place all pieces of the pattern running the same way before cutting. Sheen fabrics. such as satin, catch the light in dif ferent ways, and cutting this way Is a necessity or it will look as though you had used different pieces of material. Both sheen and napped fabrics are best cut on a rough surface such as the floor so they won't slip. If you are using a table, lay a sheet or other piece of material on it so that the materials do not slip as you cut Take care to fold the material on the straight of the goods or along the lengthwise threads if you want the garment to hang properly. If you do not check this little matter of the fold, you are apt to have a crooked dress. The fold is particularly important when you cut sleeves, for if the pattern is not placed on the grain of the fabric, the sleeve always will twist no matter how much you try to remedy the fault hi sewing. Follow the Guide In Cutting Patterns A guide usually is given with a It's pattern which you purchase. wise to study this and lay the fabric with the pieces aa directed because, as you study, you will see there's always a reason, and a good one for doing it a certain way. The pieces should be pinned before you cut Insert the pins from the top, without slipping your hand underneath the fabric Wherever the pieces are curved, use a lot of pins so there is no chance of slip rfn ( 10 Win-throp- 's drsw out a cross thread and cut along this line so the fabric will be straight If you cannot draw out a thread, mark the fabric with chalk and ruler, then cut along the line. If the fabric is a second or has Caws and imperfections in it mark these with pins, basting or chalk, so you'll notice them during cutting and can piece the pattern properly to avoid them. Check the fabric for right and wrong side, marking the right side with pins so that it can be seen easily when you lay the pattern on It e 1948 are big houses and automobiles than they can be produced ' , HP.

RESTITUTION Oftentimes when tee are young, restless and ambitious we regard a transgression of the law very lightly. We salve our conscience with soft talk, hoping that everything event' ually will turn out all right. But in most cases it doesn't. Leona Matson, while in the employment of a Hollywood writer, stole a large sum of money from her employer. She justified the theft by convincing herself that she was only temporarily borrowing the money. Furthermore, she reasoned, if she had asked for a loan she was certain that her employer would have granted it. Years passed, Leona achieved success financially as well as maritally but she still hadn't the stolen restored money. the thought of the theft bothers her and she desires to make restitution without her husband's or her former Now rs Miss knowledge. Norris suggests that Leona her friendship with her who is now in a home for the aged, cultivate her friendship and win her affection with visits and gifts. Leona can have her moved to a quiet hotel where she will have more comfort and conveniences. After Leona has made an honest effort to assist the aged lady, she should make a complete confession and restoration of her past defalcation. In this manner Leona will regain peace of mind and make full restitution for her shameful sin of the past. the fun of housekeeping HALF trimmin's!

The thick blade of the shears is placed above the material and the pointed one under neath. Use the middle of the blades for cutting as this will give the smoothest edge.
