Good BUaket Durability of the nap is an Impor tant quality that every good blanket ahould posaeas. To determine thia quality when purchasing Manketa, f - ?? 1 ' {he housewne snouia examine them to see if the weave is firm enough and the fiber long enough to be se curely locked in the weave struc ture. A double weave has two sets of filling and permits more napping without the danger of "over-nap ping." A blanket that has been over napped provides warmth at a sacri fice of strength. It is desirable to choose a blanket 10 inches longer and It inches wider than the mat tress. Wartime restrictions now limit blanket lengths to 84 inches, but this is usually adequate. Rayon bindings ordinarily hold color bettor in cleaning than do c-Uou. ------- - --- O. M. Gates Passes O. M.

Nashville became the permanent capital and the corner- , stone of the present building was laid In 1845. It took 14 years to complete.
