:®L THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1949 1 THE NEWS-JOURNAU f ‘ *> PAGE State College Hints To Farm Homemakers Light and heat both weaken curtains and draperies, often causing them to break through or go to pieces. Some fabrics are af fected mofe than others, and •homemaker's naturally want to know which fabrics will stand up longest against sunlight or heat from radiator or register. A study just completed by the Bureau of Human Nutrition and Home Economics, U. S. Depart ment of Agriculture, indicates that the most durable materials for curtains and draperies are acetate rayon and glass fabrics - a eomparatively new fabric woven of tiny glass rods. These were found most resistant to both light and heat. Silk, nylon and In the tests, plastic film - plas- plastics were the fabrics most weakened by light; and linen and nylon by heat. Twenty-seven different mater ials suitable for curtains or dra peries were studied in the tests, explains Dr. Hazel M. Fletcher, textile physicist for the Bureau, who did the research. Various weaves of undyed cotton, Unen, silk, wool, acetate rayon, viscose rayon, arid nylon were tested, as well as one glass fabric and five different plastic materials - fa miliar for their use in shower cutrains. The fabrics were woven into such materials as marquisette, gauze, crash and taffeta. But, adds Dr. Fletcher, the way fab rics stand up under light and heat depend on the fiber used, not the way it is woven, tic material made without a wov en background - .Became stronger when exposed to heat, but be came stiff at the same time.

HOKE HIGH SCHOOL NEWS A Tribute to A A Fourteen years ago a country doctor, whose career was being wrecked through hea-vy dtinking, found a way out of his “Lost ■Weekend” through the help of a New York broker, a fellow suf- i ferer who had cured . himself through service to others. That meeting resulted in the formation of the national organization we know today as Alcoholics Anony mous. In this fourteen year period, AA has done what the Chicago Sun-Times, in a recent editorial, calls “one of the most remarkable jobs of our generation.” It points out that the rehabilitation of prob lem drinkers by AA members, each of whom are on call night or day to go to the aid of a victim, is of inestimable value- Each victim saved means a family also saved. Each AA means less work for doctors, hospitals, welfare agen cies and even the police. Said the Chicago Sun-Times: . “Moreover, the movement has been one of the greatest single factors in teaching all of us that the evil of drink is not in the bottle. It is in the maladjusted individual who turns to the bottle to escape from real or imagined frustrations. “A lot of us used to think that if the bottle were removed, the evil would disappear. That’s why we tried National, Prohibition. Painfully, sometimes bloodily, that magnifi^ our mistake up to a size where all but the most fanatic ‘drys’ cbuld see it. “Alcoholics Anonymous goes to the causes of habitual drunken ness instead of trying a futile half-nelson on the effects. That’s why AA is with us today while Prohibition isn’t.” • Up to the present 2G2 have been enrolled in the high ■.schooi. This is the largest ezirollment Uiat ihe school has had in the past' four years. Firty-five per cent of the last year’s seniors are attending coll ege this year. This is a very gooil record. New cheerleaders for this year are: Fanette Gore. Iris Thomas, Jane McKeithan, Joan .Sinclair, Babs Powell and Jean Carroll Sherrill. Florence Cameron, Eliz abeth Suddreth and Mary Sue Upchurch, brought over from last year’s cheering squad, are also serving again this year. At a re cent meeting Florence Cam.eron was elected to serve as chief cheerleader. Miss Hilda Priest of the high school faculty is directing the cheerleaders. Mr. J. A. Baucom oi the Bau- com Appliance Company present ed every room in the high school with a Royal Ruby Anchorglass vase. The members of the faculty and pupils appreciate these gifts. Mr. Howell of the Howell Drug company sent every teacher a box of candy during the first -.veok of school. The members of the facul ty are grateful for this courtesy. Air.
