What clothing specialists say of work clothes for faotory. farm foundry and garage: Whatever the* job, work clothes have to ibe made of durable material. When shopping for work clothes look for these pointis and also keep a weather eye' out' for rust-proof buttons and buckles and a label that says sanforized shrunk. Most manufacturers of work clothes follow these points so well that their trade names are synony mous witL durability. Work clothes - pants, overalls, coveralls, shirts, jackets, caps, etc., are usually made of drill, hickory, 'jean - all very .'heavy and durable materialis - denim, corduroy, cotton, covert cloth, cloth, sail cloth, khaki, cotton and wool flannel. Knitted cottons and rayons are popular for work shirts. Many men today are still wear ing GI clothes to work. Laundry hints for work clothes — First of all turn cuffs down, turn pockets inside out. Shake and brush work clothes thorough ly to remove all loose soil. Stains should be removed before wash ing and all rips and tears mended. The usual types of stains are red mud, green tomato vine, fruit, grease. A little ammonia or kerosene added to the water helps dissolve grease that might be on farm overalls from tractors or other farm equipnient. This is something quite difficult to re move. Wash clothes as soon as possible. Some work clothes are usually very greasy. Scrape off any loose grease that may be clinging to the clothes. Rub large spots with carbon tetrachloride. Kerosene too might he used. Just rub it on the grease spot — wash. Work clothes are usually heav ily soiled and so should be soak ed 20 minutes in warm water and soap in order to remove all soil. A hotter wash water can lie used ifr clothes have been previously soaked. If hanging on line — smooth out wrinkles, straighten during drying and very little pressing will be necessary. If metal frames are used for drying pants, all pressing will be eliminated except for cuffs. fl FORMS AVAILABLE FOR GOLD STAR BUTTONS 666 LIQUID OR TABLETS GIVES' FAST RELIEF ^when COLD MISERIES STRIKE Southern , Marble Works Lumberton, N.
