Women In Industry

Modern cigarette factories under
union conditions, come near being the
last word in clean and healthful places
of employment. Most employees are
girls and women.
Machines are marvels of perfection
There is, among those who attend the
machines none of the evidence of
strain under speed-up that character
ICES some of the mass production in
dustries.
Work is of many kinds. The cigar
cite machine itself is but one Of the
operations. When one goes haywire
the attendants wait until a fixer sets
it going again. Then there are con-
veyor systems, packaging machines
and still other machines where to-
bacco is also put up in tins or plugs.
But everywhere there is supreme
cleanliness and a rate of speed that
does not have about it any of the ap-
pearance of tearing things apart.
What non-union plants do may be
another matter, but union conditions
mean work that is a far cry indeed
from that done in the shut-in lofts
of huge cities like New York and Chi
cago.
A visit to such a plant is an inter
esting and instructive thing. Try it
sometime.

For Better Homemaking

You wash all your other bedding
and put it away for the summer but
how about your bed pillows? Most
persons think them unwashable, some
thing to be used year after year and
occasionally sent to a dry cleaner
Pillowcases give some protection, but
perspiration, oil and general soil still
penetrate the ticking.
Washing at home is no trick at all
if you have a washing machine.
Choose clear, breezy day and pre-
pare extra heavy suds of lukewarm
water and mild coap. Soften water
by using ammonia and borax. Make
a small slit in one end of each pillow
to keep from floating, or the feathers
may be poured into unbleachhed mus
lin bags and tick and feathers washed
separately. Five minutes in the wash
ing machine should be sufficient,
rinse and hang out to dry. Simple,
isn't it?

All children have feeling for mu-
sic and it only has to be brought out
by an understanding person. The

and folk sings are written in three

scale it is easy to sing any of these
songs.

GlanOr

Facial creams, lotions, astringents
and other cosmetic aids are all help
full at the proper time but it should
be the cardinal rule of all women
never to forget the importance of soap
and water night and morning.
Dust particles must be regularly
washed away from the pores if you
would keep that young, glowing look.
When the skin periodically appears
to lose it's glow then facial massage
is a welcome stimulant. This should
always be done with an upward and
outward stroke.

DO YOU KNOW

That the water we drink on a hot
summer day does not quench our
thirst any longer than the moisture
remains in the mouth, but, a carbon
ated drink has the power so that the
stomach empties itself more rapidly
than it would otherwise. As soon as
the carbonated water enters the in
testines, it becomes absorbed, some of
it is excreted by the salivary glands
and our thirst is really quenched.
