Timely Hints By RUTH CURRENT If you have an old easy chair, keep on enjoying it for the pres ent instead of trading it in on a new model. Families are urged to postpone unnecessary pur chases to give veterans a chance to furnish their homes. * * * If the old gray suit won’t go through the winter and you find the new suits too expensive for your budget, why not make your own. There’s more to thrift than putting money in the bank. It is easy to make a tailored suit, say clothing specialists, if you are skillful at sewing and have the patience to do careful work. But don’t attempt a suit if you are an amateur at sewing. If you would like to have a bulletin telling you how to make a suit write to the Clothing Department, Agricul tural Extension Service, State College, Raleigh. • • • How to get the bagginess out of trouser knees is one of the home-pressing problems of house wives, Clothing specialists ex plain that trousers bag where the fabric has been stretched and that shrinking with steam is the mre. Lav the trouser leg flat on the ironing board with the baggy part uppermost. Press gently, mov ing the iron from side to side so that the steam goes into the gar ment. Keep pressing and patting the loose fabric into place until the fullness disappears. Then press the entire teg of the trou sers until almost dry. Leave the? trouser leg in position on the? board for a few minutes until it is completely dry. Never press; wool until “bone dry’’ because' this makes the fabric stiff atwfi harsh.
