C. State College j Many a necktie, now hanging limp and soiled enroute to the rag-bag, could instead take its place in the Easter Parade with some skillful home cleaning and pressing, according to clothing specialists. New neckties, like many other items of men's wear, are low in supply and up in price. Salvage your old neckties, espe cially prewar ties of true silk. Many of these silks are fast in color, so wash successfully, but the specialists advise first testing a bit of fabric cut from the un derside of the tie. If the fabric is not washable, the tie may be dipped in non-inflammable clean- j ing fluid. The lining of the tie frequent- j ly gives trouble in cleaning and pressing. Anchor it in place, be cause it is likely to slip out of position and become lumpy dur ing washing and cleaning. In pressing, the lining may mark the outer fabric. To avoid these difficulties, run basting threads up and down the tie to hold the lining in place before washing or dipping. Remove basting when the tie is ready for press- i ing, and slip a piece of card- 1 board, cut in the shape of the J tie, between the lining and outer I fabric. Press the cardboard. If 1 the tie is silk, a pressing cloth or1, tissue paper should be used be- 1 tween fabric and iron. Many ties may be freshened j with a little sponging. The partj most likely to be soiled is where ? the fold of the fabric cornea un- j der the chin. Prompt sponging j with cleaning fluid and perhaps j also with a cloth dampened in water may remove the soil. At; this place also the tie is likely I to become worn. If the tie is1 of sufficient length to allow for shortening, the remedy for wear is to take up the seam in the center a half inch or so which I will bring the worn place under 1 the collar and out of sight. If the tie cannot be cleaned or re paired for further wear as a tie, the fabric may be used in other ways ? as a bright scarf for a ] child, a pocket handkerchief, a , belt (by stitching onto still belt ing), buttons (by covering button -ESSO SERVICE - Gasoline . . .

It has been my privilege to serve you as a member of the Board of County Commissioners during the past four years, and for the last two years as chairman of that body. I sought the nomination and elec tion because I sincerely believed that I could serve as an honest and capable member of the board, and for the duration of my term it has been my purpose to render the kind of service that 1 pledged you when I first appeared before you as a candidate. I come before you again with the same purpose and the same determination. This time I can offer one other qualification: Four year's experience dealing with the most important business affairs of our county. During my term in office there have been many questions to come up over which there was considerable argument and discussion. I have tried always to be fair in my judgment, and each decision 1 have made has reflected my honest conviction in the matter. I know that I might not have been right every time, but I have always been as fair as I knew how. Brunswick county is a big place, and although I wish that I could see all of you voters in person before the Democratic Primary on May 25, this will be impossible. Let me assure you that 1 shall appreciate your vote and support, and if nominated and elected I wifl fulfill the duties of the office I seek to the very best of my ability. OTHA P.
