Tips on Storing Linens
For Wartime Brides

One of the most thoughtful gifts
for the wartime bride is cedar
chest for storing household and
other linens she will be gathering
for the new home she will have
now or when the war is over. The
wise bride will have washable
items. such as bed and table linen
and towels lightly laundered be-
fore storing and will wrap white
articles in blue paper to keep them
from turning yellow. Many wool
ems are already treated with moth
resistant preparations before pur-
chasing, but if hers are not, she
may have them done at reliable
shop. Periodic airing and careful
alright wrapping are further
timely precautions against inrosds
by these pests.
