FOR PERFECT CURTAINS
Have you ever heard OF a pinless

with rustproof hooks attached at
either end. It's easy to use and
keeps your curtains in shape after

the slightly scalloped edge as they

pesky ones which came from no

We tried every nostrum and sug-
gestion ever thought up, but still
they came, to pay US periodical
visits. and to cause untold agony to
my very fastidious parents.
Last week, some one suggested
that ground cloves would prove to
be the ants Waterloo. We tried 1t
that very night-the little dears

ton, and thanks, too, to you editors

LAUNDERING CURTAINS;
TEAMWORK AT HOME.

' ftuHhS IL 1nf o. II. ~. ~, az ttfe4tOfe)
Would like to pass on a suggestion
for laundering curtains which I
worked out during the laundry ban
on the cleaning of household articles.
Wash curtains in plenty Of warm,
soapy water, rinse thoroughly (bleach
II necessary, and starch lightly. Do
not wiring too dry. Take one cur
tain at time and place over the
shower rod in bathroom, pulling the
hens even and together at bottom
and the sides as straight as possible.
II I have time, I also pull out the
ruffes and, presto! when dry they
are lovely and straight and no IRON
ing necessary. If do not have time
to pull out the rufdes, I iron those
before hanging. I have done this
with very wide curtains when it was
necessary to fold them twice length
wise to fit the shower rod and found
that the folds were lost in the cur
tains' fullness when hung. Have also
used this method on all types of cur
tains. even organdy, and it works
equally well on all. The curtains
dry in less than 80 minutes.
And now for my contribution on
the manpower situation! I agree
with H. w. L. of Washington that
both husband and wife should work
together to gain leisure time to
spend in each others company, but
it seems to me household chores
should not be considered above all
else except as they pertain to small
children. My own policy is to fit
my household chores around my
husbands needs and pleasures.
When chores interfere with pleas
ure, I unhesitatingly slight the
chores. have often given the
kitchen quick brushup, stacked

IneSe people live IN one OF the

makes this arrangement possible
since the apartments are next to
each other. But the idea could be
expanded to care for the particular
needs Of the cooperating parties
and 1t worth q few inconveniences
on the part Of those participating.
In addition, would like to add that
before my marriage was q stenog-
rapher and since marriage have
used my shorthand and tipping con-
stantly to take care of my husband &
personal correspondence. MANY
times have spent all evening at
home or all day on q Sunday at the

of the cooperation that can exist
between a husband and wife.

FRUIT PIES.
Thanks to Mrs. w. r. B.,

To Mrs. M. Y. S.. Bethesda: Rela-
tive to the question about fruit pies
cooking over: had the same prob
lem and thought there was no solu-
ton. Here is simple one, and 1t
Is really effective. Always put the
hlling in the crust cold. If 1t is for
a berry pie, thicken the juice with
cornstarch, then add to the fruit
and sweeten and chill the mixture
OF course seal the two crusts as
tightly as possible. The idea is that
the filling does not reach the boiling
point until the crust is Drowned
Use a hot oven-450 degrees.

I climbed to the highest cupola.
There are about one thousand mar
rowly winding steps to the top. In
some places it is so narrow that one
has to lean in towards the center
because the inward curving of the
dome prevents one from walking
upright. The higher you get the
more cramped it gets and in places
you have to crouch nightly to get
by. Half of the way only one way
traffic becomes possible.
Near the top stepped inside the
main dome. A three foot, gold in
laid, artistically designed fence runs
all around the dome on the inside.
From there you have breath TAX
ing view of the main part of the
Church, the Pope's canopy, the
main altar-one of the most elabor-
ate and beautiful of all the treas
ures in the Cathedral-and several
altars. saw the people below like

had rosarieS and other religious
relics which they held up for the
Pope to bless as he passed by. Some
held up the small colored pictures
1of the Pope himself A few just
held up their hands. In some places
there we're so many hands holding
relics that His Holiness had to exert
himself to touch as many as he
could. Leaning first to one side,
then to the other to catch both
sides; smiling always. Those whom
he missed hurried past the process
sion down the line to catch him as
he passed by.
In spite of myself was impress
ed by the beautiful scene. The men
on one side desperately trying to
catch the Pope's eye while he SEEM
ed to be blessing only on the other
side; men supplicatingly holding up
the relics to be made sacred by the
touch of kind looking, little Man;
thrusting their hand to catch his
precious hand. Then the look of
gladness on mems faces when His
Hand descended on their relics and
also touched their hand slightly.

Dear Craig:
My wife keeps me fairly well
posted as to what goes on in the old
home town by sending me clippings
from The International. Hope your
trip to the Windy City was a pleas
ant one and by the way did you
wear your ten gallon" Stetson?
My old friends Marty and
4'Bookas" manage to get their
name in the paper at regular inter
walls but what has happened to
Charlie Bauer and Joe Bacon? I
wonder if there could be any truth
to the ''scuttlebutt' that Marty
has opened a branch of the Con-
cordia in Sacramento? There must
be some attraction up that way
and at his age I don't believe he
could make good at picking fruit.
The news from up North is all
good at the present and it looks as
tho we have the little yellow sons
of heaven on the run. Here's hoping
things continue as they have in the
past and we can pack up and head
for good old Uncle Sugar" before
long.
Best regards to all.
Sincerely,

delayed several times due to the
upgoing traffic.
The Pope holds his audience in a
right wing of the Cathedral, which
by itself makes fair-sized cathed-
raj. Two long wooden barriers
through which the procession moves
run down from near the wing en-
trance to the altar. Nearby two
dignitaries were distributing small
colored pictures of the Pope. At the
entrance of the wing a small offici-
GUS man in tails with breeches, who
spoke English, was doing usher du-
ties in loud high pitched voice.
The officers were segregated from
the soldiers. I found a place one
row behind the barrier about half
way down
The Pope was not on the dot, so
we waited The place was filled
with Allied soldiers of all nations.
There were quite a few negroes
from South Africa and also Sudan
officer. Practically everybody was
chatting while waiting. Some had
cameras to take pictures.
Sees The Pope
Presently, there was an extensive
Nogales international., 1944-09-01

gathering as everybody came to at
tention and profuse craning of
necks. The Pope came out. Several
colorful guards preceded him and
he was borne on his canopy by sew
eral dignitaries. He was smiling
benignly and blessing everybody
right and left with upraised arm
and two poised fingers.
When the procc cssion reached the
altar he got off the canopy and sat
down in throne like chair. From
there he gave brief sermon in
GOOD but accented English, about
Victory, Peace and God. in small
high-p pitched voice, through q mic
rophone Then he translated it into
excellent French.
When he finished speaking large
part of the crowd left, but many
remained, especially those who con-
gregated near the Pope. He spoke
and shook hands with a fewTofficers
and soldiers. I did not attempt to
go up to him. but rather, waited by
the barrier for him to come back.
Shortly thereafter the procession
started back.
Quite a few soldiers and officers
Nogales international., 1944-09-01

to them. 1t is all beyond human
conception.
Then I went to the outside of the
dome where I had birdseye view
OF Rome, the Pope'S Palace and of
Vatican City. There is a lawn in
front of the palace separated by a
driveway where the grass is grown
in designs representing the coat of
arms of the Pope. The City itself
is not large but it has some beauti-
full spots. There are several minia-
ture parks with thick clusters of
trees and other greenery.
The guards of the Vatican are a
show by themselves. They wear
different ancient uniforms-mostly
Of the old Swiss guards. When &C.
clesiastical dignitaries pass by, they
snap into attention with a click of
the heels and salute.
About fifteen minutes before the
Pope was scheduled to hold his daily
midday audience for Allied soldiers,
I started towards the Vatican, COM
