Nylon lace curtains wash easily and dry quickly They usually need only slight pressing at the hems. Brush Up Crumbs seasonal housecleanlngs most families, and It's no wonder! The whole house is In a great upheaval from attic to cellar, and mothers so tired! The cleaning doesn't have to be done in a day or two, or even a week, especially if you have a large home. Why not parcel it out among several weeks and thus save yourself and the family their loss of comfort? If you have two regular cleaning days every week, you can plan to do some of the extra jobs on those days which you would ordinarily save for the seasonal cleaning. Now, when you have one or two days tor laundry: plan to wash some curtains, draperies and slipcovers along with the regular laundry. This Is far easier on you than doing all these big items at THESE Many Draperies Wash With Complete Safety Use common sense in washing draperies, if you want satisfying results. Unless they are color-fas- t and draperies probably should not be washed as you may lose the whole investment in them. Lined draperies are usually too much of a job to attempt at home unless the linings can be easily removed and replaced. Overloading the washing machine when youre doing drapes may prevent them from becoming cleaned thoroughly. Its foolish to overload too many in, as five minutes in medium warm water is sufficient for most drapes. Thorough rinsing is in order. Before putting through the wringer, fold the draperies flat, to prevent unnecessary wrinkling. Drying draperies in a shady place will prevent undue loss of color. If you have an ironer, youll find this excellent for pressing one time. If you plan to do one or two rooms at one time, this is far better than uprooting every room in the house for two or three days. With your energies as well as work budgeted over a period of time, youll feel much better, and will thus accomplish better results, i Are there a lot of things to be put taway for the warm months ahead? Gather your boxes, paper and labels ahead of time, and then pack things away as they become clean from your laundry or cleaner. Days on which you ordinarily have only light work can be made a bit heavier with some of the special seasonal jobs like a thorough 'washing of the woodwork as well as windows, rugs and draperies. If you're not yet ready to plunge Dining room rugs require constant attention to keep them attractive. Plan to use your carpet sweeper on the rug immediately after the meal to remove any crumbs before thev get ground into the rug fibers. This rug design Is borrowed from that of an ancient stone carver and comes in beige, grey and two shades of green. If any of your curtains are chintz, and you want the colors to be truly delightful and fresh, wash as often as they become soiled. If the chintz has a permanent glaze, the shiny surface sheds dirt well, and the curtains do not need as frequent laundering. Durable finish is unhurt by washing, but it should never be soared. Lukewarm water and mild suds are indicated, and three to four minutes in the machine are sufficient. Rinse thoroughly and dry in the shade. Iron the glazed side while slightly damp with a moderate iron. On sheer curtains you may have to allow for a two or three inch them artistically. Heavy and lined draperies which are not due for cleaning can be easily handled by using a vacuum cleaner attachment on the drapes, just as they hang. If you go over them thoroughly with the attachment, not just seasonally, the drapes can be kept quite nicely, thus saving many trips to the cleaners.

Let Cleanliness Enhance Tour Curtained Windows i Dean, sparkling windows and immaculate curtains can certainly be a treat to your eyes when you first start looking out at the season coming into buds and greenery. A few minutes washing in the machine Is sufficient to clean most of your curtains. Most of them need e to remove a lukewarm most of the soot and dust and then be whisked into 'the machine. For glass or ruffled cotton curtains give them two minutes time, then rinse thoroughly. Light starching will make them crisp as new. Permanent finish curtains, of course, do not need starching.

Screens are one of the simplest methods used, but they need not be dull and colorless. Why not cover the screen with maps or pictures from some of your vacation trips? Theyre conversation stimulating, as well as an addition to the personality of the home. Screens can be covered with menus you've collected. What could be more appropriate for a screen used to enclose a dining area? Another type of partition which is very useful is a chest that can easily be made by simple carpentry work. Use this to separate the kitchen from the dinette nook. Its much less expensive than a wall, and youll get table top space to help in serving the meal, as well as the chest-sheitself to help store dishes and table accessories. Chests used as partitions can be used to separate living and dining area, and it may even be used to section off the . living room for library or music activities. Let Rooms Change With Living Demands All changes, minor or major, should be made with an eye to future use and activity. lf Slarts the Day With Garroway perienced when he married you is probable. Men dont have to turn to the unfortunates of the lowest type for favors nowadays, and if what one hears of college years is true, and I dont believe all of it by any means, purity is rather the exception than the rule. Living as I have' for 20 years in a town famous for its college I would discount about 80 per cent of that generalization, but there certainly is left a margin of truth. Many college affairs are those of genuine affection, prompted by youth and propinquity and freedom, and in' those cases one understands, even1 if one does not condone. The disruption that war inevitably brings to young lives is another reason for todays comparative laxity. But any man who invents stories of tremendous conquests, who dwells fondly on their memories, and who tortures a young loving wife with disgusting details of these affairs, is really not a man, but an unreliable, vain, rather pitiful adolescent. Neither in manners, mind nor heart is he adult, and your one hope is that he will someday be as ashamed of himself as you are. Ask him a year from now if he would like his baby daughter to marry a man like her father. Keep up a steady barricade of prayer for his better behavior, and implement it with laughter. Meet his tales with obviously untrue accounts of your own adventures with movie stars, visiting oriental princes, New York millionaires. Say amusedly, "If youre going to be silly, El, with all this stuff, so am I!" Ask his friends innocently if they knew Elbert was such a lady-killeDid Bill know that perfectly beautiful married woman, right here in town, who said she was going to kill herself for Elbert? high-scho- Phillips ing allowances for a noble effort, is like a trip on a flying carpet in your pajamas, with no time far orange juice and with frequent stops at a madhouse to change pilots.

In six months I will have a child, but El has spoiled what should be the happy time of waiting for my baby by hints that if it is a boy he is to be initiated into the coarser side of life while still in his teens and taught to drink and to handle women. I have cried myself sick over all this, but I dont let Elbert see my tears, and my asking him please to spare me these details of his past only seem to spur him on. 1 must add that I know and love his mother, and that nothing he ever did or she ever told me of him previously gave me a hint of this side of his life.

That be wasn't completely inex spring sewing. But are you really ready? Are your shears in good shape? Have you the best needles and thread your money can buy at your store? Hows the old sewing machine working? Is it as ready to go to work as you are? Better look it over before you start cutting. If youve been using your machine youve regularly, kept it oiled and cleaned periodically, as you should every two or three weeks. But if you havent touched it In months, youd better try it out on a sample, and find out what ails it. Once you know what the trouble is, you can often apply the remedy yourself. Upper thread breaking? That simply means that the tension is uneven, and the top tension needs loosening. The same thing goes in reverse if the lower thread is stretched to the breaking point. If both threads break, or neither, the tension is perfectly balanced, and the stitch a success. Puckers in the material? In that case, one or both threads are too tight, and need careful adjustment. Make this test: Thread the bobbin and needle, double a piece of sample material, and stitch across on the bias. Get a good grip on the ends of the stitching, between thumb and forefinger of each hand, and pull evenly, and strongly enough to break both threads. If its working properly, the threads lock in the center midway between the two layers of cloth. Then, if your upper thread still breaks, look over the needle to see if its bent, set wrong side out, or too high or too low. This same thing can be the cause of skipped stitches, too. So look over the needle situation, be sure its properly threaded, and sharp enough for the purpose. Youll find, however, that most of your difficulties stem from the need of a thorough cleaning. Dirt, thread or plain lint in the shuttle cavity is the cause of most of your sewing machine ills, so take it apart, bit by bit, arranging the parts in the order of their return to the mechanism, clean what needs cleaning, and oil according to the directions your salesman gave you when he sold you the machine. Ocean explorers are discovering new secrets of the Gulf Stream, centuries after it first caught the ships and imaginations of seafarers. Only recently have scientists proved that the great warm current wanders, sometimes shifting course by hundreds of miles in response to unknown pressures. East of Newfoundlands Grand Banks, the Woods Hole (Massachusetts) Oceanographic Institution sent its research ship "Albatross 111" last summer to investigate the fingers of warm water which curl away toward Iceland, Scandinavia, the British Isles and continental cruise may Europe.

"Elbert is steady, generous, he d is the most man I ever knew, he is popular, and considered highly by his firm.

With so many sewing machines now on the market, you want to be absolutely sure youre getting the best there is for all your purposes.
