n cow good are your defenses
against the enemies that
Invade" your rugs? You
need smart strategy TO defeat
them, For these enemies are
real ones and can make your best
rug "A casualty" long before its
time.
Enemy Number One is the
sandy grit carried in from out
doors on the family's shoes, for
this grit works down into the
pile. and shortens a rugs life.
Enemy Number Two is the
sooty, greasy film-the "air-
borne invader" that settles down
on the rugs surface, dimming
its bright colors and mating
down the pile.
Enemy Number Three is just
plain wear.
There are other enemies, but
chief among them are careless
ness and rough handling.
The best way 10 combat Enemy
Number One the sandy grit that
gets down into a rugs pile, is to
use your vacuum cleaner-right!
Run the cleaner slowly over
each portion of the rug, giving
the brushes time to beat up that
sub-surfaee dirt So the suction
can carry it off. Allow a good
Is minutes 90 vacuum a 9X12
size rug. DO this at least once a
week. A vacuum cleaner does
not wear out rugs!
IF you have no vacuum cleaner
] use the carpet sweeper often
to clean all surface dirt off as
quickly as possible.
But ,once a week or at leas.
every two weeks, give the rug a
thorough sweeping with a good
stiff broom.
Use short strong strokes s,
against the pile, SO that the un-
derneath dirt is dislodged and
swept off as much as possible
When you must clean rugs
without the help of a vacuum,
send them out to be cleaned pro-
fessionally once a year.
As to Enemy Number Two
the sooty greasy film that settles
down on the rugs surface and
stays there even after vacuum
ing or sweeping, you can get rid
of this in small rugs by sham
pooling il away. Use either a
homemade soap lather or one of
the many commercially prepared
foam" lather shampoOs.
To make your own shampoo,
dissolve z cup of mild soap
flakes in one quart of boiling
water. Cool until jellied and
then beat with an egg beater
until the whole mass IS turned
TO a fluffy soap lather without
drop Of liquid left.
Vacuum clean or sweep the
small rug thoroughly, then lay
II on a table so you can shampoo
II without STOPPING Take up

Food fights for freedom

Use these food-sduing ideas from
Armour TO cut trnsie in your home and
help conserve Americas pitai food supply
If you will save as little as a spoonful OF food
day, you will help shorten this war. Food is the
most important need of our fighters, allies and
civilians at home. But unless stop the needless,
careless waste in our homes, America won't have
enough food to go around
Right now, we are wasting 1870 of all the food
that comes into our homes. $50 That's enough TO
feed all our armed forces. More than all the food
we've shipped to our allies to help turn the tide to
victory. And Ioe are throwing it away!
No one throws away food in quantity. We throw
it away by spoonfuls. We don't eat all the good
food on our plates We let some food spoil. We
don't use all our eftovers We waste food in kite
ways-but they add up to 40 billion pounds of food
wasted every year in America.
From now on don't waste a spoonful Use care
fully every bit of the precious food that into
your home Follow the food saving suggestions on
this page. Devise other ways to stretch Americas
vitality important food supply. It's something we
must do to help shorten this war.
