Stale College Tips
To the Housewife
For most wool garments, steam
pressing is the only way to take
out wrinkles, smooth the surface
and sharpen creases, our clothing
specialists say. The exceptions are
wools sold as washable, such as
challis, which may be ironed like
other laundered clothing, but al
ways with a warm rather than a
hot iron—and on the wrong side.
Because wool is so sensitive to
heat and so easily damaged by
scorching, the home pressing job
needs to be done with care. If you
haven’t a steam iron, use an ordi
nary iron and two clean press
cloths, one of wool and one of
firm cotton cloth. Or, simpler,
use one of the treated press cloths
for sale at notion counters and fol
low directions on the package. It's
risky to press a good wool gar
ment with thin cheesecloth, as is
often done. The wool may scorch
even when the cotton cloth above
shows no sign of it.
Steam-press on the wryng side,
if wool is likely to shine from
pressing, or if the weave has any
raised pattern. Right side press
ing may be best if wool is thick,
rry a little place and see which
jives best results.
Be sure to leave a little moisture
n, or the wool will look hard and
lifeless. This is most important.
To steam-press: Cover the wool
first with the dry wool press cloth
ind then with the cotton press
doth dampened in warm water,
instead of ironing back and forth
is you do with cotton, press by
setting down, then lifting and
shifting a warm iron. Press down
ust enough to force steam
hrough the wool. Lift the press
•loths and beat out steam left in
vool with your hand or a wood j
dock.

Things To Watch i
For In the Future
——
Housewives who hate to iron
ruffles, lace, and similar frilly
items won’t find them such a
chore with a new stationary iron- |
ing device. Instead of moving the
iron over the fabric, you move
the fabric across the iron . . Clean
sweep—that’s what you'll get with
a novel vacuum cleaner rug noz
zle. Attached to the vacuum, it
acts as a revolving suction brush.
Detach it and it becomes a carpet
sweeper .... Another convenient
vacuum innovation is a light
weight (five pounds) hand-type
cleaner which even a child can
manipulate without difficulty . .
’Handy” is also rihe word for a |
third home cleaning aid: a hand- i
sized w'ashboard, for laundering
fabrics too delicate to toss in the
washing machine with other
cothes. The "board” (it’s plastic)
attaches to the hand by means
sf an elastic band . . . New globu
ar filler caps now simplify auto
mobile battery servicing. The
globes show at a glance whether
water is needed, also warn if too
nuch is being used.
A sensible looking girl very
often is not as sensible as she
ooks, because a sensible girl has
more sense than to look sensible.
