For Farm Hocnemakers
Br RUTH CURRENT
This is one way to wa<h and'
dry wool. To wash, or not io wash
For most wool ciothing, dry clean
ing is better than washing. How
ever, many knit garments, flannel
and challies may be washed satis
factorily at home. And imny a
homemaker learns to wash a
blanket so it won't turn out
shrunk or boardy. The warmth of
a blanket depends very largty up
on the amount of nap, so it's
well worthwhile to take care in
the washing to. hold the fluffy
softness.
For a comforter, dry-cleaning is
best. Washing is likely to ' leave
the filling lumpy and matted.
Use lukiarm soft water, and
mild soap. Hard water can be
softened with an ammonia or borax
solution. Use cautiously or you
may add too much alkali for the
good of the wool. And, be sure
the water is lukewarm, for you
may shrink the wool in oat hot
or cold dip. Allow plenty of
water, more than for most fabrics.
Dissolve mild soap in the water.
Or use one of the soapless oil
washing materials such as are
sold for hair shampoos. Make
generous suds before the wool
goes in.
Never soak wool. Wash by hand,
if you can. Squeeze suds through
fabric. Rubbing shrinks and hard
ens wool. Jf you use a washing
machine, don't crowd wool articles
and wash ithem quickly. Never boil
them.
When wool is clean, rinse 2 or
3 times in clear lukewarm water.
Squeeze water out gently. Don't
wring or twist.
A warm, but not hot place, is
just right for drying. Never let
wool things freeze.
Hang blankets over a line with
a half or fourth on one side and
without clothes pins. A blanket
dries quicker if two lines, near
together, share the weight. Squeeze
water from the ends occasionally
and shake the blanket to fluff the
way. :
TEACHERS CAN TAKE
SUMMER JOBS
The state's school teachers will
not be prevented from taking jobs
at higher pay under WMC Regu
lations No. 4, the "hold the tine"
order, nor will they endanger their
regular positions by working during
the summer vacation in war plants,
agriculture, or necessary civilian
services. The U. S. Employment
SeTvke is moving to place teach
ers in war-essential jobs for the
summer.
"He'll never make a soldier, " ex
claimed the sergeant of the knock
kneed recruit. "When hi* legs
