Try looking at the back, front, and sides of your house from the outside and see what others see. Do the windowshades and curtains need straightening? Are the grounds neat? Next, enter the front door as if you were a stran ger and take a quick but all-in clusive glance around. Thus in act ually seeing your house as others see it, you may at the same time note some changes which you, see ing through their eyes, will want to make. Shoe pockets, when hung on the inside of a cleaning closet door, provide a useful container for many small articles such as dust cloths, whiskbrooms, and clothes brushes. To prevent chipping china a rubber mat placed on the drain board of the sink will act as a china protector. Nails and screws can readily be seen and found if stored in glass jars. Small boxes equipped with divisions are splendid also for separating different sized nails and screws. A shopping bag hung on a hook in the pantry may be used as a You Can Depend on Your Druggist Take a moment to think of the part your druggist plays in your life.

The* contents of such a bag, moreover, are surprisingly useful if placed conveniently at hand. A shopping bag containing cleaning rags, brushes, powders, and so forth, and hung on a door knob in the room in which one is cleaning, will save many a step. Raisins, rice, powdered sugar, brown sugar, navy beans, and other such foods which are kept on hand in small quantities, are most easily stored in fruit jars; thus the contents can be seen at a glance. Also, dry foods are kept dry, and moist foods moist. Here’s a trick for taking the shine from the hack of trousers and skirts. Sponge the shiny worn place with water containing a little ammonia. Then press with plenty of steam, and when dry, rough up the surface with piece of emery paper. If garments are to be sent to the dry cleaner it is wise to inform the cleaner as to the kind of spots present. This makes it possible for him to remove the spots before the general dry cleaning process is used, and eliminates the possi bility of any stain becoming “set.” Remove the trimming and the headband of old straw hats be fore cleaning. Then to closely woven straws, like leghorns, Pana mas, or Milans, apply a suds of luke-warm soft water and neutral soap, and scrub lightly until they are clean. Rinse thoroughly and lay in the shade to drain for a short time before blocking. For coarse and loosely woven straws, follow the same methods, but use water very sparingly. Every garment should be on a separate hanger. That keeps it in shape and avoids wrinkles. Hang ers which are covered with a rough fabric will keep clothes from slipping and keep shoulders in shape. Buttons on young children’s clothes should be large enough for the child to grasp easily so that he can push or pull them through the buttonholes. Buttons about an inch in diameter are satisfactory. ★ * High School News By Joyce Gouge * * The ninth graders enjoyed a party last Wednesday night at the school. Chaperoned by the two home room teachers, Mr. Nesbitt and Miss Wilson, they played games and square danced. Re freshments consisted of ice cream and cokes.
