Pastime Theatre MONDAY, JUNE 17th DOORS OPEN 2:15 1 Matinee Show 2 Night Shows Admission: 40c Matinee; 50c Night State College Hints For Home-makers Perhlaps your blankets are be ginning to show the strain of yank ing and pulling because they were too short to begin with. If so, ther'll never be a better time to lengthen them with a strip of cloth something suitable, at the bottom. Although more than 11 million yards of wool went into blankets during the last quarter of 1945, sup plies are still tight "Mothproff" containers alone do not eliminate the pest hazard. If they're tightly enough sealed, with no cracks, they keep moths from getting in from the outside but they don't prevent any moth larvae al ready lurking in the clothes from doing their dirty work. Hence the neceseity for having the woolens thoroughly cleaned. As an added protection, use a spray or flakes of napthalene, or paradichlorobenzene, or moth balls ? a pound for a small chest, 3 pounds for an everage clo set. The flakes or balls give off a gas which discourages the larvae from feeding and kills them if the cen tration is high enough. As the gas is heavier thap air and sinks, the flakes should be put high in the closet and renewed, if necessary. Don't forget the wool upholstery on your furniture either. Frequent brushing and cleaning will help keep the moths away. It isn't safe to dress up your overstuffed chair and sofa with furniture covers for the summer and forget about the upholstery ? not if it has wool in it. Better take a look at it once in a while, clean any spots and brush away the dust and any insect eggs that may be waiting to hatch out.
