FRAGILE CURTAINS NEED CARE

To prevent sheer, fragile curtains from being torn while washing in an electric washer, put them in an old pillow case and allow machine to agitate for about three minutes. Use plenty of good mild suds and warm, not hot, water. Rinse until rinse water is clear and free from soil or soap scum. If you wish to add a little body and crispness to the material, add thin starch to the last rinse water.

 Don't Add, But Substitute Whole
 Wheat
 You often speak of ''plain wheat" as essential in the everyday diet. Would adding whole wheat bread to our daily food be of some value9
 (Mrs. s. B.)
 Answer Depends on what pur- ports to be whole wheat bread" Do not add 1t, but substitute plain wheat for as much of the refined flour as you can: That is, use ordi- nary wheat, the kind farmers grow, feed and seed stores sell if you can convince 'em you really want wheat, ground in your own coffee mill at home. I have a pamphlet wheat to Eat" which tells how to use it in various recipes and dishes that are good eating send stamped, envelope bearing your address and ask for 1t.

 Those are just a. few of the ways Duration Widows could heln make each other feel less alone, if they would band together and help each other solve their indi- vidual problems.
 It is an idea worth trying out in these times. For the feeling of being absolutely alone with no one to turn to in time of trouble is something no service mans wife should have to face. Not while there are other women = right in her home town-who are in the same boat.

e. Recently I met young man whose friendship I would like to cul- tivate. Is it good form for me to ask him to call, or must I wait until he asks me if he may call?
 A. Theoretically it is woman's privilege to ask a man to call. In the United States this social con- vention is not strictly adhered to and men frequently ask women, whose friendship they desire, for the priv ilege of calling. It is still custom ary, however, and perfectly good form, for a young woman who wishes to continue an acquaintance ship, ot ask a young man to call on her at her home.
