Types of indies
for Winter Wear
Silk, Wool and Cotton Made
Into Garments to Suit
Milady's Needs.


"The warm undies' one buys today
are far cry from the red fiannels'
and other scratchy underwear atroci-
ties of yesterday For it is warmth,
rather than weight, of which one
thinks when selecting warm undergar-
ments," says the Kansas City Star.
Winter weight underwear may be
any one of five types: Lightweight
wool, silk and wool, cotton and wool.
heavy cotton and fieeced cotton The
kind you should select depends upon
the severity of the climate in which
you live, and your own occupation and
habits. Naturally, if you are out Of
doors great deal in an intensely cold
climate, you will want the warmest
type. If the weather is only moder-
ately cold and you spend most of your
time in a steam-heated apartment,
choose fairly lightweight underwear.
In any case, some sort Of knit I'M
derwear as opposed to woven under
wear, is desirable for winter; for it
has in its favor elasticity, which
means snug fit; porosity, which allows
the body ventilation but protects 1t
from drafts; warmth, due to the air
spaces which conserve the bOdy's heat
as well as softness, durability and
power to absorb perspiration.
The lightweight, all-wool underwear
has the advantage of being warm as
well as light. Its drawbacks are that
1t holds moisture over-long that 1t
shrinks and 'sfeIts" a great deal when
washed; and that, to many people
with tender skins, it is EXCEPTIONALLY
scratchy. If you find these faults in
your all-wool underwear, you will like
the silk-and-wool combinations. Silk
and-wool cloth makes ideal underwear.
but it is expensive. 1t is extremely
warm, but always soft, never scratchy,
and it washes and wears well.
Heavy cotton underwear is quite
warm, too. But it is less desirable
than underwear in which wool and cot
ton are combined, for it is too heavy
and solid, for the utmost in comfort.
'Fleece-lined cotton" may be an ex-
cellent solution Of your underwear
problems. The fleece consists, not
necessarily Of wool, as many people

ailments removed by the cleaning.
The afternoon is spent with funda-
mentals, such as the adjustment of
the tension, which is the second great
source of sewing machine trouble. In
the majority of cases either the upper
or lower tension is too tight, and the
women are told to pull the cloth on a
puckered seam to see whether the up
per or lower thread pulls; the thread
that breaks has the tightest tension.
Bring Their Machines.
The women come for miles around,
bringing their machines by auto,
wagons, wheelbarrows, baby car
riages. and, in snowy weather, on
hand sIeds. One woman carried the
head of her machine, that is, all above
the stand and treadle, for IA miles,
walking all the way. This was in the
hilly country of Ulster county. When
the school was over she said she
didn't mind walking back, but she
hoped that somebody going in her dr.
rection might cart the machine for
her, at least part way. She got the
lift back.
Counties are clamoring for this
service, asking for daily extension
schools. No machine comes to school
unless something is the matter with
it; and so far none has ever left the
school without being In good running

About Knack in Making

Even when / knew all the theory-all
the why's and wherefores about max

much of a success until had plenty
Of practice.
There are two kinds of pastry
plain pie paste and cuff paste. Most
of us know something about making
the plain pie paste, and few are ex-
pert at making the puff paste, al
though most housewives feel they
haven't the time to devote to making
it. However, when properly made,
puff paste is real deIicacy.
We hear great deal about the
indigestibility Of pastry. 1t is very
hard to digest, since the fat in the
pastry completely envelopes the starch
grains in the flour, preventing contact
with water and with the digestive
juices-and so only light, tender and
fiaky pastry should be eaten. That ls
why every woman Of us should learn
to make really good pastry
pastry that just gets by.
The lightness of pastry depends on
the air enclosed in it, and its fiaki-
ness depends on the kind and amount
Of shortening as well as the method
Of mixing it.
