How Movino
Can Be Made
Much Easier
BY DONNA GRACE

THE, ANNUAL moving day Is
at hand for thousands whose
lease ends October / and, even
though one may be going to bet
ter and more attractive quar-
tiers, the moving job is never
very easy. Packing and unpack-
ing is only part of the confusion,
but no need to tell this to any
experienced migrator. We have
all been through il.
Planning b fore h a n d will
eliminate a great deal of the
work and make the moving
something of a delightful adven-
ture. This can be done when
one has time, especially if il is
possible to become familiar with
the new premises. If one can
place all wearing apparel in
Guiding hats and shoes when
they are moved in, most of the
disorder will disappear.
Beforehand
Whenever possible. decorate
closets, trim shelves, and do
everything to give the closet a
finished, clean look. Have new
clothes bags tthe mothproof
kind if you cam shoe bags. or
brackets and arrange shelves
for hat boxes.
Fresh. fancy paper harmonic
ing with the shelf trim Will
make any closet attractive. Have
light from the ceiling and use
light paper or paint for dark
places. Some women are clever
enough to use fabric for wall
and shelf covering.
Any wall paper store will give
advice for putting on either the
paper or fabric and sell the COR
rect glue for the purpose.
Pack intelligently so you can
find everything without hunting
for it. Unpack all clothing and
linens and put them away in
their proper place at once. Try
TO have dishesa nd all Kitchen
ware packed so it can be reached
easily. Have the shelves clean
and ready. then place the things
as you want them. II will take
a bit of thought to find the con-
venient way, but when this is
done. at the time of unpack-
ing there should be no hard
work and disorder later on.
Clothing Bags
II is not necessary to have the
long evening bags for evening
clothes. Few closets are large
enough 10 accommodate such
bags. Even the longest dress
can be hung smoothly by hanger
loops Sewed to the inside OF the
belt line. Stuff the shoulders
and bodice with tissue and press
them slightly so they will fit in
the hanging space.

Surprise them by making their
corner the most convenient and
attractive spot they ever owned

10 keep them contented. II will
also make IL easier for you TO
ask them for new Grapes, rugs
and things.
Take time TO polish all silver
before moving. Have il ready
in cases and keep it in a special
drawer or silver cabinet. Linens
should be Numbered and mended
so your shelves will be orderly
and you can be sure everything
is ready for use.
Accessories
Have a good supply Of dust
rags, soaps and poliShes for the
soap cabinet. If blankets. or
comforts need cleaning. have
this done before they are moved.
