denier stockings are recommended,
with $50 denier for extra hard wear.
For evening SO denier, 81 gauge are
the most luxurious and beautiful.
Q-What special care is necessary
for rayon stockings?
A-Rayon stockings, like all other
stockings, should be washed i'm
mediately after wearing. 1t is wise
to buy three pairs at time, so that
you can allow ample time for the
stockings to become thoroughly dry
before wearing Thus while wearing
one pair you would always have
two pairs in reserve. Rayon is weak
est when wet, so special care in
washing is important, Wash in mild
suds, rinse thoroughly, squeeze in
a towel and lay flat on towel to
dry. 1t is safest to allow 48 hours
for drying.

Now that we're in rayon stock
ings for the duration, it might be
a good idea to bone up on some OF
the finer points of how to buy
them, wear them and make them
last.
Proceeding on the theory that
the best way TO find out about
things is to ask questions, sought
out an authority and opened fire.
The following quiz covers most OF
the questions women ask about the
new rayon stockings. Joseph Lef-
cort, president of a large hosiery
manufacturing company, supplies
1.-THE answers.
Q-What should a shopper look
for in buying rayon stockings?
A-Look first for the dull texture
which means the stocking is made
of high-twist yarn, giving it greater
elasticity, clinging quality and
snag resistance. A good quality
stocking also should have a wide
welt, or garter top, a properly shap-
led heel, and reinforcement at heel
and toe.
Q-What is denier?
A-Denier is the term used to
designate the weight of rayon yarn
A stocking made of 100 denier yarn
is heavier than one made of SO
denier yarn. A so denier rayon
stocking is very sheer, 100 denier is
medium sheer and $50 denier is
service weight.
Q-What is gauge?
! A-Gauge is measured by the
number of stitches in a hosiery
fabric A As gauge, for instance
means that there are approximately
As stitches to each one and halt
inches of fabric measured around
the leg In gauge, the higher the
number, the more stitches to the
inch and the finer the texture.
Q-What is the best weight tc
buy?
A-For daytime wear, rs or 10C

lief and rehabilitation measures al
ter the war are as short-sighted in
international affairs as some of the
sweat-shop employers of the worst
days of the Industrial Revolution,
who thought that ill-paid, ill-fed,
III -housed workers could produce
satisfactory work and would remain
permanently contented with their
lot. To use Beveridges phrase, DEM
ocracy must free itself once and
for all of the scandal of physical
want for which there is no econ
omic or moral justification. 7"
Despite the war, the paper short
age, and civilian man-power short
age, the year 1912 saw the transla-
ton and printing of the Scriptures
in three additional languages of
Africa, and one additional language
of India. The American Bible So
ciety reports that the Bible or parts
of it are now available in LOSS of
the worlds languages and dialects
According to a British chaplain

Sir Bernard Montgomery, hero of

Sheen, of the Catholic University

in calamity but it does not nee

Now that the American govern

wiser for each 1000 men in uniform,
some of the large industrial cor

have "a social engineer for the

Company has sent the Rev. Nor

the Presbyterian General Assembly
to serve with their employees in
Ireland; the Kaiser Company OF
Portland, Oregon, has provided

Oct. 17.-County agents and poul-

extension service have received
numerous inquiries from turkey
growers regarding the restrictions
on the sale and delivery of tur-

An announcement made here
yesterday by Hillman Moody,
state supervisor, Food Distribution
Administration, Raleigh, will help
to clear up the situation, extern
sion officials believe.
Mr.. Moody said, when a flock
of turkeys are ready for market,
but owing to distance from pro-
cessing plants are unable to find
a buyer or owing to size or condi-
ton, the turkeys obviously are not
suited for Army use and cannot
be fed without undue hardship on

keys are available: request the
