Make it so good and interesting that they just cant refuse it! Y'ou may have found that coax- ling helps your family to eat luncheon and dinner, but as you may know, it just wont work for breakfast. The things that do work are variety, downright good food, gay, cheerful dishes and linens, and pleasant attitudes. Of course the time element is important, and this may need a bit of working on if your folks are in the habit of sleeping until the last minute and then trying to dash off some fruit juice and coffee. When you sit down to think about It, those five minutes extra sleep really dont make you any more rested, so get the family up early enough to eat breakfast properly. Mother can help this along by getting up and starting breakfast. The smell of pancakes or bacon plus the aroma of coffee really does help 'in getting the family started on their way out of bed. Breakfast should start off with fruit or fruit juice. This not only is refreshing, but also is a good way to get started off on those vitamins and minerals for the day. Follow the fruit with cereal, prepared or cooked, and vary this from day to day. If the cereal looks a bit uninteresting, plan to serve fruit with it to add a touch of color and flavor. Eggs are recommended for breakfast whether you have to watch your calories or boost them. But, do serve them in different ways so they always remain interesting. Then, too, you can use eggs in waffles and pancakes when real variety is desired. Interesting breakfast breads do a lot toward making the meal one to anticipate v with delight Try a brand new coffee cake or tbast some of the homemade breads for real deliciousness.

Im speaking of stitching rugs at home; yes, the kind of rugs that have luxurious pile and expensive texture. These may be tufted or knitted, and many can be made right on the sewing machines in just a few hours. Another thing thats nice about these rugs is that they can be easily laundered at home, if you wish to save expensive professional cleaning costs, because cotton yarns are featured in many of them. Bedrooms, bathrooms, play rooms and the like are easy to brighten and freshen with these, new rugs. Consider the color scheme of the room carefully, select your yarns and go to work. The process is actually so simple that youll be amazed at what can be ' produced with your own efforts.

Col-ma- weave you use for backing. Burlap, monks cloth or rug canvas are all suitable for backing, but if shortages of these occur, then try any fabric thats strong and tough and washable. Feedbags, discarded awnings, sailcloth or heavy, unbleached muslin all have been used with good results. If you are making a hooked rather than a tufted rug, you will need backing for that, too.
