UTAH Simple Afternoon Dress Planned to Slenderize WOMAN'S WORLD Hard Washing Will Weaken Fabrics GREAT By Ertta Haley PROGRESS has been In the field of fabrics during the last 10 and 20 years. This progress has gone hand in hand with strides made in the laundering of those materials. If, however, you are still following ancient laundering methods and wondering why clothes dont last, then take a good look at your laundering habits. Are you setting the clothes down in strong soap solution and letting them soak all night? Do you run the washing machine for a long period of time in an effort to get them clean? Do you rub collars and cuffs on the board and wonder why they fray? These are outmoded habits and have no place in modem laundering methods. Take a vacation from rough laundering methods, learn a bit about the new rules, and see how delightfully clean the clothes will be with much less effort and work. Youll be saving on the clothing budget, too. Prolonged Soaking Weakens Material Contrary to the general belief that the dirtier the clothes, the longer they should be soaked, overnight soaking is not a good idea. Prolonged soaking not only weakens the fibers but opens them and lets the soil become more deeply lodged. Even the most heavily soiled clothes such as work shirts and overalls covered with factory grease or farm soil or youngsters dirty play clothes, should be soaked for no longer than 15 to 20 minutes. If clothes are soaked in a sink or a laundry tub, fill with lukewarm water and add enough soap to make two inches of suds. The way to get the most good out of soaking is to place them in an Pre-Was- many of the clothes. White collars do not become old and yellow looking if you dry them week after week. As for colored clothes, from which stains cannot be removed by bleaching, its wonderful how sunshine works. Many of the stains are bleached by gentle sunlight, and colors take on a new, refreshed Clothes h 3t r rC; look. If you are fortunate enough to be able to dry your clothes outside, youll also appreciate the beneficial properties of the wind or breeze. You dont have to shake out clothes carefully as the breeze will puff them out and get rid of the wrinkles you would otherwise have to iron out. Save Ironing Time By Proper Preparation Remember the tight knots into which women wound clothes to get them ready for ironing? Experts now tell us to lay clothes flat and fold them as little as possible. Its not wise to dampen clothes too heavily either for ironing if g youre interested in practices. In fact, if you can remove clothing from the line in a slightly damp state, they can be folded neatly then ironed. time-savin- The men on the farm and the children in the backyard seem to get their clothes equally soiled. To make regular washing more effective on heavily soiled garments, give them an agitated soak" first. The washer is filled for regular washing, hut with lukewarm the usual water and one-ha- lf amount of soap is used. When the soap has formed suds, the machine is turned off and the clothes put in for a brief soaking. Make up the third tub full of clothing which is lightly colored and slightly soiled. From here you can go on to the dark socks and heavily soiled clothing. If the water, during any of these tubs, gets too dirty, change it. No matter how long you ,run the washing machine, clothes will remain dirty looking if the water is dirty. Heavily soiled clothes, particularly, should be washed in a load by themselves. With a good modern washer, the time of the washing process can be regulated to the minutes degree of soil. About 0 follow approved methodt .... agitator type washer. The agitated which 'soak is a sort of helps to make the regular washing more effective on heavily soiled garments. Fill the washer as for regular washing, but with lukewarm water. With the agitator going, add one-hathe usual amount of soap. When the suds have been worked up, turn off the machine and put the clothes in for soaking. Separate Clothes Into Groups Anyone who has done home laun dry realizes the dismay a colored sock can cause in a wash load of the towels and linens. For this reason, separate the clothes into different loads for washing. Lightly soiled clothes and white clothes are washed in the first tub Then come the less soiled fabrics such as napkins, towels. KATHLEEN NORRIS Self-Pit- y when I first married, with my husband to dine with some friends of his, a married couple unknown to me until then. He had told me that the wife was a brillant woman, but unlucky. She .had many gifts but she didnt seem able to succeed with any venture, even in the great city where everyone we knew was either painting, or singing, acting, dancing, or writing-writing anything; essays, storsceies, poems, advertisements, narios. Not everyone was successful then, but everyone confidently expected to be, sooner or later, and almost everyone .was. But not Olive. I knew her for ONCE, years after that first bridal ner and she never did anything cept talk about her bad luck. 25 For laundering ease. in medium hot water (120) will wash play and work clothes clean with no rubbing and scrubbing. Fresh Air, Sunshine Benefit Materials Its surprising how much of the stain sunshine will remove from dinex- She played, the piano delightfully; she was one of the wittiest women I ever knew, but somehow she got small pleasure out of either gift, and even socially she was always left behind. Thought Only of Self Her trouble was that she could think of nothing but herself, and of what everyone else was thinking of her. That everyone else might possibly have something better to think of never crossed her mind. Like all Olive was women she was abnormally sensitive and managed to make anything and everything that was said in her hearing immediately applicable to herself. So at the first dinner, when we were both young women, poor, amdetermined bitious, adventurous, that New York should give us the Newest Fruits Please Palate Bia JUICY PLUMS, large sweet cherries, golden apricots. No longer are these fruits store items. You, too, can grow these tine fruits in your own garden. Pioneering in the development of new hardy fruits was the experiment station at Brookings. S. D. Here Dr. Hansen worked with the wild fruits and interbred them with hardy kinds from other parts of the world. Other institutions and persons have since added to this and now there are many excellent kinds tor the Middlewest. Most of these new plants are just the right size for the home garden. Plums are always welcome, but the old kinds that came from Europe will not grow well much beyond Pennsylvania, except in favorable spots. The new American plums have been developed from the wild plum and do not grow into very large trees. They can withstand low temperatures and will grow in most any situation. Waneta is a medium size red plum. Opata has a red skin and green flesh. Sapa is a solid red, skin and flesh, llanska has redskin !Sth a bluish color, Red Wing is dark red. Monitor is bronzy red Golden Minnesota Is a yellow. Most of these will produce fruit when only three or four feet high. Some varieties, as Sapa, can be grown in bush form. The plants are very productive. Even if you can grow the older kinds of prune plums these new ones will prove to be highly desirable for eating, canning or preserving, as well as early bearing Cherries have not been overlooked.

She apologized for the dinner napkins; she fluttered about the shortage of forks, she interrupted the conversation. Just as it got under way, with nervous asides to her husband and to the bewildered amateur waitress who had been hired for the occasion. If a guest hesitated one second in attacking his food, Olives eager apologies were there. You dont like mint sauce? Oh, dear, dear. The lamb Is cold. Arthur sorry to interrupt you, dear, but this meat is stone cold I did want things to be nice. Everything In Mother's house was so perfect Youll think me quite uncivilized; I know there should be candles for dinner, but this room is so deplorably dark. Dreadful apartment but all we could get. Apologies Spoiled It And so on and on. All through the years Olive flustered herself and everyone near her with her fluttered pretentiousness. If one met her downtown all the pleasure of an unexpected encounter was spoiled by apologies. "This dreadful old hat. But what can poor folk like us do?
