Its possible to sew in features which enable you to let out garments, and these can be employed where you want to increase wear- Never use materials which are too worn to withstand much wear since they will give way at the first or second washing or strenuous afternoon of play. When using shirts, youll probably find that the most durable material comes from the arms and the back of the garment Materials used should be appropriate for the style used as well as to the complexion and age of the child. If too old or mature, plan to use the material elsewhere as no one will be happy with something inappropriate. Dyeing materials will sometimes enable you to get the most suitable results from the fabric. In case there Is not quite enough material In remnant or leftover piece, plan to use a contrasting trimming for sleeves and yoke to stretch the fabric. Blue jeans can be made at home along with slacks either from yard goods or from good material on adult garments.

Pi Clothes From Sacks Pi The United States apparently is producing a special bomb casing in which its new, immensely powerful atomic explosives can be used against any type of enemy target. With such specialized containers or missiles, the atomic bomb ceases to be only a mass destruction weapon for a shotgun style of attack on an Industrial city. It could be used against particular and difficult targets, such as underground fortifications and factories. A laconic phrase in the semiannual report of Defense Secretary Louis Johnson gave a significant hint. Said Johnson: Atomic weapons are no longer a small number of bombs of a single type and size to be used only strategically on a carefully selected target. While neither the defense department nor the atomic energy commission is inclined to go beyond Johnsons cautiously phrased statement problems encountered in World War II and the results of tests at Bikini and the Eniwetok proving ground suggest that these are some of the objectives in the atomic weapon development: 1. An encased in a deep penetration type jacket similar to the tall boy" bomb developed in the closing days of the war. The function of this conventional explosive bomb was to bore deep Into the earth before exploding. 2. An atomic marine mine which can be preset to explode or can be detonated by remote electronic control. Such a weapon may be dropped from a plane (as thousands of standard mines were during the war) or planted stealthily by a submarine stealing into an enemy harbor.
