Blouses of georgette crepe are at
least as numerous as any other kind,
and become soiled as quickly. But
they require special, but not difficult,
treatment in washing and ironing.
This is work that women do for
themselves, and It is worth while to
do this work for chiffon, light weight
silk. satin and lace blOuses. Nearly
everyone has learned something Of the
art of tinting or dyeing blouses, when
time and wear fade those that are col
ored or yellow those that were white.
Women who have learned how to laun-
der their own fine blouses turn them
out as good as new after unnumbered
washings, or tint them into first one
color and then another, according to
their fancy.
The various manufacturers Of dyes
have placed on the market many colors
that may be used for tinting by mix
ing with water. Colored crepe papers,
soaked in water, yield several lovely
tints. But one may get almost any
color desired or match any hue by us
ing tube paints and gasoline as tint
ing medium.
The washing of crepe and other
sheer fabrics is simply matter OF
handling them gently. Make a warm
suds Of water and white soap and dip
the blouse repeatedly in this, squeez-
ing the soiled portions in the hand or
rubbing them very gently. If much
soiled wash through second suds
and rinse in clear, tepid water. DO

HAD THE LAUGH ON CooTIES
Soldiers Humorous Explanation OF
Why He Was Wearing Such
HGiddy Lingerie"

Life on the front had its whimsical
ties at times In spite Of rolling bar
RACES, the hail of bullets, the jangle Of
caissons and the whining Of truck
motors. Lieut.. Harry B. Henderson
tells of a beautiful red rose on his
camp table, in a letter to the Wyoming
State Tribune. beside an Austrian
shell with bit Of scenery painted on
1t, which served as a paper-weight.
Then there are incidents that excite
the 'risibles" and afford needed d.
version to the mind. For instance:
"The other day they were keeping
us bit busy and had my ear on top
of my head all the time deciding on
each 'whiz' as It approached. Just In
the hottest part Of it. one of my gun
ners came tearing down a rutty road,
clad In a Prince Isaac coat he'd found
in a raid and wearing Boche cap.
He was pushing baby-buggy full OF
potatoes and dynamite which he
thought could use. We had the eat
ables for lunch and then blasted new
dugout with the explosive. You can't
imagine how you laugh when you've
been a bit under strain for several
days of firing, and then see something
funny. But for my sense Of the proprie-
ties I'd describe the giddy lingerie the
young man was using for underwear.

Milk produced by 5,5S7 cows In 10
cow-testlng associations, averaged In
a year PAT pounds OF butterfat per
COW. This is considerably above the
average production OF all the dairy
cows In the United States, which Is
estimated at 100 pounds of butterfat
a year. A study OF the records of the
associations showed that the produc-
ton Of 100 pounds of butterfnt II year
gave an increase of $23 over cost OF
feed, while the average Income over
cost of feed from cows that produced
DAT pounds was SAT, or u little more
than twice as much.
Though the dalrymen who join cow
testing associations are thought to be
more progressive than the average.
