EABRIC manufacturers have
= stressed for years that the
only way to conserve the life Of
a shirt is 10 launder it before il
gets too dirty. Ingra!ned soil
such as gets on collars and cuffs
IS hard 10 remove. TIE more II
is Undecided. the more rubbing
IL takes, and rubbing means
wear and tear.
If the laundry cannot accept
the shirts or limits the number
that may be sent, the home
maker can make a real contri-
button TO the conservation of
fabrics by learning to launder
the shirts at home. Shirt-waSh-
ing is not difficult, especially
with the AID OF Z few tricks and
knacks.
The first has already been
mentioned. 1t is to wash the
shirt before II becomes too
dirty. Second, il the shirts are
white or colorfast, soak them
for half-hour in cool, sudsy
water.

Ironing Shirts

ironing a shirt is not so easy,
but a woman who has any skill
with an iron can do a good job.
Dampen the shirt evenly.
First do the collar-wrong
side first. then the right side.
Neckband yoke, cuffs, sleeves.
back and front-that is the
order of ironing that brings best
results and gives a professional
looking finish.
There is no rule that shirts
must be folded, so if you have
plenty of closet room, hang
shirts on clothes hangers.
OF course. if the shirts must
be stacked in a drawer, folding
is necessary. In that case, butt
ton the top and bottom buttons
and one about halfway be-
tween. Fold each side of the
shirt under about three inches.
Fold the sleeves parallel with
the sides. Fold the shirt-tail at
'hs point where the cuffs rest,
then fold in half.
The finished job, at first, may
not be quite as professional as
the way the laundry does it, but
there won't be a single pin for
hubby or junior to stick himself
with-and that, at least, is an
advantage.

Evening Glitter

Her templets, twin discs
which clasp the head at either
side just above the ears, are
often deliberately embroidered
or studded with cabochon cut
jewels. Matching collars make
them an ideal accessory team
for after dark glitter when
dining or dancing.
To make a few basic clothes
do the work of an extensive
wardrobe, Dache has dreamed
up a galaxy of glamour acces-
series. Everything from a
jewel for your sleeve TO an
evening apron is included. She

Rub With Soap

Before soaking. rub moistened
soap on the soiled areas. roll
each shirt in a loose bundle and
pop into the tub. After soaking.
unroll the shirts, then wash
them in tub or machine like
other cottons.
Look first to see II collars
need a little rubbing to get rid
of soil. After washing, rinse
thoroughly. To starch or not 10
starch depends upon the finish
of the shirt, and the wearer's
preference. Sports shirts, of
course. are usually left I'M
starched.
Your men will tell you what
they Ike-and you can be
guided accordingly. Where they
want starch, find out whether
they like il lightly or more
heavily Starched; there's a great
difference in mems preferences
about this.

will certainly be glad - do this
and at the same time get some
thing for nothing by turning
the unused husks of late corn

The method is simple and its

Braid the Leaves

Take three of the inner,
cream-colored leaves and tie
them together at one end with
a fourth leaf. Then start braid
ing them. folding the edges of
the leaves inside. When half
way down the leaves slide an
other set of leaves inside the
ends of the first three and con-
tinue braiding. It's even easier
than il sounds.
Discard the tough outer leaves
because they are too course,
and cut off any tough end of
the inner leaves so as not TO
have a knob in the braiding.
Continue to add leaves as
needed and make a good long
rope.

Wind Rope Into Shape

When the rope is finished it
is time to decide whether the
mat is 10 be round or oval. For
a round mat simply turn the
braid round and round on itself.
For an oval one double the

next. with the heaviest needle
possible and with coarse, strong
thread. l found that five
inch-long wool needle with
big eye, and waxed thread, such
as is used by furriers, worked
very well. 7 also tried an uphol-
stery needle which is curved
and that worked, too.

Dye The Ausks

The huSks may be dyed be-
fore braiding if any special col
oring is desired. Since they abb
sorb more color than cloth, it
is necessary TO use double the
usual quantity of dye and allow
more time for it to penetrate.
Fifteen minutes added 10 the
normal dyeing time for cloth is
about right for husks.
When the dyeing process IS
finished, rinse the husks IN
clear water and dry in a shady
place, preferably by spreading
a single layer on newspaper.

A New Team

Madame Dache has always
felt that hats and hair must go
together so she invited Louis,
creative hair stylist, TO open his
establishment in the Dache
Building" says Eleanor.
Together they collaborate on
giving equal rights TO coiffures
and hats and the new Dache
collection illustrates several
trend setting solutions for union
between hat and hair" she
relates.
Louis, OF course, styles
hairdos for the individual and
many women have been sur
prised TO see what new fat
top couture, complimented by
the right hat will do for them. ,
