In laundering children s clothes, he most important rule to remem ,er is that ail cloths, except some •ottons. should be washed in luke ..... cm wa'er. This rule applies to -olored cottons, too. Hot water -hrinks woolens; it weakens the ivnthetic fibers, and it should herefore °e avoided. Abundant ukewarm suds remove soil readi v provided the garment has not wen allowed to become too soiled.

Of course parents will be able to make long distance calls to chil dren away at school, and- vice versa, but they should limit them in consideration for the needs of the country. Neither should they become alarmed if there is delay in reach ing each other by long distance phone. Delays will be occasioned by overburdened wires and govern ment calls taking precedence. All of which suggests that the boy or girl who goes away from home equipped with letter writing materials (and be sure to include some postage stamps) will be en couraged to keep in closer touch with home. -V To maintain health, about 2,000 cubic feet of air is reqquired every hour. Two New Schools Near Completed State Here Eight Lake Forest Class rooms Will Be Ready By Opening Of School Eight to 10 classroom «f the new $201,000 Lake Forest school, now under construction to serve the children living in the 1,059 homes of Lake Forest, Greenfield Terrace and Lake Village federal housing projects, will be completed by the opening of school, Superintend ent of Schools H.

All pupils in grades one through seven on the thre projects should report to the Lake Forest school, located on South Thirteenth street just acrosa from Lake Village project, for registration, the sup erintendent stated. i Eighth grade pupils living on the projects should report to Tileston school. Second School A second new school, the $134, 000, 12-Class room Sunset Park school, is also rapidly nearing com pletlon. All pupils in Sunset Park in grades one through six will report to the old Sunset Park school building, to be transferred later in the term when the new building reaches completion. This includes pupils who last year went to Tiles ton. Pupils in the seventh and eighth grades will be transported to Tiies ton while pupils in grades through 12 will go to New Hanover high school.

That means increased work and strain for young eyes. Ex tra reading,, studying and homework will tax the student’s vision. Now is the time to make sure your children have the prop er light to protect their eyes from needless strain. Check the light bulbs for strength and the lamps for proper posi tion and non-glare qualities. Light conditioning is as necessary to get them ready for school as new clothes, proper dentistry and physical check up. It’s up to parents to see that children’s precious sight is protected ... to make their work easier and their marks higher. Our home service department is ready to help them with “Better Light For Better Sight.” Tide Water Power Co.

Seven teachers will make up the faculty of the school at the start of the term and others will be ad ded as fast as the registration of pupils warrants it. Centrally Located Although one of the newest schools, the Lake Forest school is possibly the most centrally lo cated school plants in thecounty Mr. Roland pointed out. It is easily accessible to the east side of Greenfield lake which is rapidly being developed into sub urban communities. Pupils from the 800-unit Maffilt homes shipyard worker housing project, now under construction near the shipyards, and the pro ject 1,100-unit duration dormitory housing project adjacent to the Maffitt homes, will be transported to either Lake Forest of the New Sunset Parke school, he said. The Sunset Park school also con. tains a large gymnasium and au ditorium facilities in addition to classroom space. It covers the space formally occupied by two city block and the intervening street (now filled) giving adequate space for playgrounds. Both buildings are modern, well designed school plants and present an architectually pleasing appar ance. Tileston Tileston school, of which J. W.
