Show 5 j, Tribune, Thursday, February 28, 1963 Th 14 D Heloise Soak Socks, Stir With A Masher By Heloise Cruse ear fp Heloise: After doing fU loads of laundry every hlonday morning and always .... ending up with about five Taira of my J husbands black socks fa f which must be P- washed 1 C. canrately not do another load of wash), I have found the easiest Heloise way to launder them, I fill the wash basin with a small amount .of liquid detergent, turn on the water ts,u$et to make lots of bubbles'and allow the hot-- , te$t water possible to fill up the basin, Then I use my potato masher to plunge up and down to wash the socks! With "the potato masher I can use much hotter water, and never ruin my hands by putting them in hot water and strong detergents. After the wash procedure, pull the drain and let the soapy suds run out Turn on the faucet with hot water again, and let it run over the socks while the drain plug Is still out. Close the drain again and fill with clean rinse water. Rinse in the same way using your potato masher again. After this; pull the drain, and let all the water flow away. Let the socks become completely cool before wringing them out This way you have also kept the hot water off your hands again. Now, can you tell us how to get the gray residue off of black socks? K. Gruetsmoker Dear K.: Unless your socks have been bleached-an- d I do not think they have according to your long this gray residue Is called soap film! The cheapest, quickest, and - best way I know? of to remove this soap film is on that last rinse water in your socks . , . add about M cup of vinegar! If your soap film is Very heavy this operation may have to be repeated. Heloise , Hear Heloise: This idea may help other mothers who have three or more children close together in age. When our children are about the same size and we wash their socks it becomes a problem as to how to separate them, whose sock belongs In whose drawer, and does thla navy blue one go, with that black one? 1 have solved this problem by buying my youngest child all white or beige socks, the second child all red or blue or socks, and the oldest child navy blue and dark colored. Now after I do 32 pairs of socks a week, I can look at them immediately and tell to Which child they belong. May I express my appreciation to other mothers who have written in and have helped me save time and energy by sharing their household hints. Mary S. Dear Mary: Its people like you who take thl time to write us who keep this old world going! Love, Heloise j, v J multi-colore- , d Letter Of Laughter In reply to the womans query of whether she can use a tea bag over and over again, I once heard of a man who used the same tea bag 86 times! Then he slit it open and used the remaining tea leaves tor snuff. Finally he sold the bag to a midget for a table napkin. He suffered no ill after effects!
