. AIDS STRIKES

CLEVELAND, Dec. 6 QN.S)s--
Additional strike resolutions were
expected to be discussed at to-
days session of the twentieth BIZ
ennial convention of the Interna-
tional Ladies Garment Workers
Union here. .~....-. ....
The convention has already ap
proved of four strikes in New
York, Philadelphia and Cleve-
land, involving more than 10000
garment workers.
With an objective of eliminat-
ing the sweatshop and the estaE-
lishment of the Chr. day and
5-day week, delegates to the
convention yesterday voted strikes
among 10000 children's dress
makers in New York, 10000 dress
makers IN Philadelphia and 5000
cloak and dressmakers in Cleve-
land.
Authorization of these strikes
followed approval of a general
strike of $4,000 workers in New
York when their agreements ex-
pire December 81.
The convention still has resolU-
tions before it on strikes in Bos-
ton, Baltimore, Chicago and
Toronto.

Anyone who has had the care
of a small child for any length

Me too" or Let me help"
when We are busy on our round
of household duties. Children like
to do what we do, and If we but
think for a few moments and
plan that they may have an
activity like ours, it solves the
"what-to.do' problem OF the tod.
dler in both an educational and
happy manner.
If you consider the season of
the year it will help you in
planning work and play for your
very small person. And in allow
ing the child to initiate your
duties, you not cnIy have the op-
portunity of keeping him busy,
but there are many chances To
impress upon him lessons which
he would not yet grasp in the
abstract.
This is the fall season, and be-
side having abundant opportun-

is the occasion to make the child

we draw closer together in the
home; we spend more time as a
family than during the summer
months when the sisters and
brothers and mother and father
scatter to camps and vacation re-
sorts.
Ask your small child what is
going on in the home in pr para
tion for winter. Why did you can
fruit during the summer? Why
did the coal man shoot black stuff
through the cellar window? Why
are you taking the heavy blankets
out of their moth-proof bags end
airing them on the line? Why did
the two of you go shopping for a
warm little coat?
To prepare for winter, of course.
To be ready when the snow and

THE BEAUTY
BOX
BY Helen FOllett-

Mildew is one of the most stub
born stains with which the house
wife has to deal. If the stains
have not yielded to exposure to
sunshine, javelle water is the next
treatment to use. AS a last resort
try a solution of potassium per-
manganate, followed by an appli-
cation of oxalic acid solution to
remove the permanganate stain.
For the potassium permanganate
solution, dissolve half a teaspoon
full of the crystals in a pint of
water. For the oxalic acid solu-
ton, use one teaspoonful of
crystals to a pint of water. Before
using the permanganate dampen
the spot with clean water. Apply
with medicine dropper and rinse
by pouring water through. Ap-
ply oxalic acid in the same way
and rinse. Repeat as often as
necessary. After the final appli-
cation wash the cloth carefully
to remove trace of chemicals.
The back of the neck is
favorite camping ground for
bois. carbuncles and assesses.
1t should be bathed with ex-
treme care and thoroughncss and
should be free from friction of
the harsh fabrics of coat collars.
If a scarf is worn-and i. should
be because it is cleaner thar the
coat collar-it should never be
one of coarse material Gecrgette,
Chiffon and soft satins are the
best.
