Dip such garments in a solution of 9 ounces of borax and 4 ounces of boric acid to a gallon of water. Wring by hand, then hang to dry. Flameproof ing will last until the clothes are laundered; then it must be repeated. tJse it on doll’s clothes, too, as well as adults’ clothing, drapes or any washable fabric. 2. Remember, candles are danger ous at any time—but particularly Bill In IWhhlMi Mae lets you tailor performance to driving conditions. You get instant response in traffic; extra-economical cruising.

Harrell, Edenton, recent- 1 ly spent a seven-day rest and recuper ation leave in Tokyo. Normally stationed in Korea with the 2nd Infantry Division, Harrell 1 stayed at one of Japan’s best resort hotels and enjoyed many luxuries un obtainable on the war-torn peninsula. Private First Class Harrell entered the Army in October, 1952, and com pleted basic training at Fort Lee, Va. Here is the magnificent new Pontiac Star Chief for 1954! Here, in fact, is the first genuine luxury car ever to be offered in Pontiac’s low price range! As the biggest Pontiac ever built, the new Star Chief brings you all the generous added length required for peak roadability and riding ease. You will be cradled in fine-car comfort never before available at or near the price. And this extra length provides a long, low, aristocratic silhouette like costly cars, brought to even greater beauty by a brilliant new treatment of Pontiac’s exclusive Silver Streak.

Add to all this an even mightier Pontiac engine— plus an optional choice of virtually every fine-car power control —and you will understand why you should not only see, hut drive, this magnificent new car at the earliest possible moment. See the completely new Star Chief this weekend, along with the wonderfully improved Chieftain Series —General Motors lowest priced eight and the famous economy six.
