wasser, general manager of the cleo
trio light company offers the use of
all the electric irons that may be need
ed to iron tea towels, frilly cooking

and the long sleeves are smart, but the
square neck and shorter sleeveshave many
advantagesand are being much used. The
military pockets make feature, but they
are not necessary and if the plain belt
is preferred, it can be used. The gown is
very simple and easy one 10 make, for
the blouse is simply held at the waist line
