- NE of the first aids to thrift
is a wen-equipped sewing
room. If the housekeeper
nag some DEFINITE place for keep
Ing sewing materials in order, she
Is much more likely to mend and
repair. Naturally, If it takes a
long time to find the right spool
and other needful things, a person
will be more likely to lay a gar
ment aside without. mending it.
There is hardly a house which
cannot have some kind of a def
mite sewing corner. Sometimes q
small screen in one corner Of the
dining or sitting room viii hide
the sewing machine from view and
offer space for sewing aids. In
deed. a great convenience Is a
Toiding screen with three panels
covered with cretonne. The inside
OF these panels may be fitted with
large pockets, divided like a shoe
bag, into which patterns and va
rious kinds Of materials may be
placed. Such q screen may also
have hooks on the reverse side to
hold spools, scissors. tape measure,
pin cushion, &C.
A shtrtwaist box is a good place
In which to keep small rolls of
dinerent kinds Of materials. Each
material should be tightly rolled
and tied or pinned together. An.
other good plan is to use the draw
ers Of small bureau or chiffonier
and keep the pieces neatly in these
drawers.
Still another plan Is to use the
white cardboard boxes, such as
suits OF underwear are kept In at
the dry goods store. Select six or
eight Of these boxes in a good
shape. Then have the man of the
house or one Of the older boys make
a light frame. into which the boxes
viii ft-one such as Is often seen
In light Summer furniture. These
boxes may be fitted with labels as
white Goods" silk Pieces" "Un-
derwear," "Mending," &C. In this
way each class of goods may be
kept separate and easy to find at
a moments notice.
Ribbons, tapes, betting, &C.,
should all be wound around sep
arate pieces Of cardboard. A glass
pint or quart Jar or q tin cracker
box is good thing in which to
keep buttons in bulk. A supply of
elastic black and white tape, dress
betting and hooks and eyes, as well
as good pins, should always be at
hand.
The woman who would do sue
cessful sewing needs to under
stand thoroughly the operation Of
her particular make of sewing ma
The Washington times., 1918-12-15

tul. One woman used most sue
cessfully a letter fle with alpha
betical tabs, filling each letter out
as Aprons" Dresses" Fancy
Work" Lingerie" &c. Then into
each Of the proper divisions she
placed the clippings she cared to
keep, in this way having instantly
at her finger tips a desired fashion
picture or recipe or description OF
a gown.

There is no reason why a sew
ing room should not receive as
much careful attention as q
kitchen or any other room in the
house. The woman who has one
well fitted up and comfortable to
work In will find that 1t will help
her to thrifty habits in keeping the
family clothing in repair, with
minimum expenditure Of time,
money and labor.

chine. 1t should be frequently
cleaned and oiled, using q rag
after oiling and running the ma
chine on some waste material first
in order that any surplus oil may
be removed. Machines should
never be kept in a damp place or
left open while the room is swept;
otherwise the part win become
rusty or clogged with dust.
A great help to every woman
who sews considerably Is to have
some sort Of a form" on which to
drape and make her dresses. Some
OF these come in two parts and are
as inexpensive as 81 In cost. A
skirt marker Is another small de-
vice costing only a quarter. which
assist In the even hanging of a
skirt. It Is always a good idea to
have a small ironing board exclu.
sively for sewing-room use.
Recently one busy mother had to
mend her hoy's sweater, which had
become badly frayed. It was such
a peculiar color that she could not
match the wool. So she ripped on
one Of the patch pockets, unrav-
eled 1t and mended the sweater
with The wool. In another case. q
pocket was useful when a mans
coat had become torn ami there
was no more Of the material avail
able. It was an easy thing 70 rip
on one Of the pockets and use It
for the mending.
Il is always best to mend and
repair a garment before washing
or cleaning. Recently q number Of
sofa pillows were very ragged but
when carefully darned over a lisht-
weight material and then washed
and re-dyed the patching was not
visible. 1t Is an easy matter 10
use the simple dyes which come
In the form Of soap, and which
need only be rubbed on the ma
terial in order to create the de-
sired shade. Very often articles
that are faded and look ready 70
be thrown away can be saved by
this simple trick.
Cleaning Is an essential part n
repairing, and the sewing room
equipment should include powdered
magnesium or Fuller's earth, BEN
zine, &c. Spots should be taken
out before actual mending IS at
tempted. Such white materials as
children's Teddy Bear coats, with
white sweaters and other white
wool goods, may all be subjected
to the dry-cleaning process n the
sewing room.
Possibly sharp scissors are the
most important tool for the sewing
room. One means of keeping them
sharp easily is to use a small
wheel-g-iBder, which may be
screwed to the wall and which is
operated by a simple turn OF the
crank handle. Two or three min
utes' use of this will sharpen any
pair of scissors.
Sometimes a small folding table
is of great assistance if the usual
lapboard cutting table cauno: be
purchased. The kind that consists
of a square top and folds like
card table may easily be pu: out
of the way when not in use. and
yet readily opened for service
when required.
A good plan for keeping spoois
in order is to use a sewing ma

''GEEzER OF BERLIN"
 ONE TREMENDOUS LAUGH
Royal Monday Presents the Worlds Greatest Comedy and 1urlesaue
 Feature.

The most pretentioas comedy fea-
 ture ever attempted and the greatest
 ourlesque in the history of motion pictures is The Ceezer cf Berlin v
 which comes 10 the Royal theatre Monday fer the first time in Hot Springs. lt is seldom tho people oe this city have the opportunity 10 en- joy such a picture as this is. It IS cne sustained and tremendous laugh rom start to finish. though it is en-
 iirely different from the usual run of comedy features
 "fhe Geezer of Berlin" was con- ceiycd by Frank Howard Clark and directed hy Arthur Hotaling. eneag eG by the Century Comedy company particularly for this picture, which i5 released by the Jewell productions. Because the kaiser sets at Universal City which We're used by Ruper Julian had been destroyed. it was necessary to reconstruct mutations of them nearly as possible, to carry out the comedy and burlesuue idea. This necessitated the expenditure of a great deal of money. and t is quite probable that the 'Geezer of Berlin" cost more money to produce than any comedy ever filmed.
 t isn't so much about the cast 0, the people or the stars that one thinks when "'rhe Geezer of Der lin is mentioned. 1t is the rich comedy contained in the titles and in the super-heated sub-titles of the riece which carries one away from the theatre after tremendously hearty laugh In the cast appear lugie Mack, the we'll known fat comedian, Bartine Burkett, Hay Ham ford, Jack Stewart Monty Banks and Bert Roach, together with cast Of several thousand supers and extras composing the German Army" and the population of Louvain
 In casting about for a solution og the kaiser menace. the producing company engaged as being extremely appropriate Hughie Mack for the principal role in The Geezer of Der lin. This $50 pound comedy man was formerly an undertaken in Brooklyn, and it seemed particularly approprl- ate that he should be given charge Of the worthless destiny of the kaiser Bartine Burkett, ono of the engag- ing and interesting of screen engen- ues, plays an interesting role in tho comedy while Jack Stewart plays the role Of the clown Quince, and he certainly holds up the former Ger man official, whom he impersonates mp to enough radieule to last life time.

At the start of the story there is distinct simplicity of plot oeve.opment, fixing the characters firmly in the mind, and giving to each a direct and haman interest. There are only three or four real characters in the whole story, Evelyn the beautiful circus heroine: her father. (the great animal trainer and the youns prince who truly loves her.
