2. Make sure you have enough dye
for the quantity of fabric you are
dyeing. Because of their heavy
weight woolens require more dye per
yard than cottons or rayons.
3. Use a simmering temperature
all during the dyeing period. Use
a large enough vessel for the pur-
pose so that you can stir the gar
ment gently in it's dye bath. Avoid
rough treatment as this makes the
garment shrink.
4. Remember that woods appear
much darker when wet than when
dry. Test small strip of fabric
by ironing dry to make sure you
have the shade desired.
S. When you are satisfied with
the color, rinse the garment thor
oughly. Then stretch it to its origi-
nal proportions, using the pencilled
figure or measurements mentioned
above.
Iron the woolens while they are
just barely damp. Of course you
understand this has to be done with
a pressing cloth or the wool will
develop an ugly shine. If the gar
ment has not stretched to its prop
er shape. it can be stretched even
more while you are pressing the
fabric.

Broided Rugs

You can do lot to make your
home more attractive with braid
ed rugs, provided you use gay
colors and good patterns. There's
a definite place in the bedroom,
den, dressing room and chill
dren's play room for charming
braided rugs.
Nothing is too small or too
large to use for rug making.
Here is a list of some worn-out
things that are often used: worn
draperies, bedspreads, blankets,
tablecloths, coats, trousers, for
mails, pleated and gathered
skirts. You can even use towels,
napkins, aprons, blouses and
stockings. Don't forget to shop
for inexpensive remnants at bar
gain prices, too!
For rug that will please you
when finished, work out a plan
ahead of time and shape it with
crayonS. Then select material,
dye it, if necessary, in accord
ance with the plan. Before you
cut the fabric, write down the
number of rows you will need of
each color.
Colors in braided rug should
give a feeling of unity. Keep
large areas quiet in their effect,
and keep colors balanced by re-
peating them with discrimina-
ton.
Braids may be made of any,
where from three to eight strips,
but the number of strips does
not complicate the braiding proc
eSS.

Skirts seem somewhat shorter,
but knees are still being kept COW

Fem1nlnity and gayness OF mood

Raglan sleeves and dropped shoul-

shrinkage, the most shrinkage you
can expect of properly treated gar

Reclaim Those OvercOats
For Smart, BOxy Jackets

Incidentally, you won't want the
coat an olive drab. Dye it one of
the following beautiful colors: navy
blue, dark green, jade green, scar
let, cardinal red, dark brown or
black.
Dyeing will be much easier if the
coat is first ripped at the seams.
This makes it less bulky to handle
in the dye bath. And incidentally,
once the ripping is done, big job
is out of the way and you can begin
sewing so much sooner.
Use pattern for cutting the coat
down to your measurements and
have it just as square and boxy as
possible with trim shoulder lines. A
double breasted model with large
pearl buttons will look very up-to-
the-minute.
If you don't want a collar on the
coat, then have it collarless, button
ing up high. Make slit or dag
onal pockets, and plan to wear it
with gay scarf and snappy little
hat. The cost for an outfit of this
type is under five dollars, and you'll
have both warmth and wear from
the outfit.

Woman,s World
Reclaim Khakis and Navy Blues
For Making Wearing Apparel
Ry G,tta Haley

NOV that many boys have
marched home from overseas
service, many homemaker has be-
gun to wonder about the possibility
of using those wonderful khaki and
navy blue clothes for something
useful. It's very true that the fab
ric in these clothes is mach too good
to ba shut up in mothproof bags or
closets. They can be converted into
excellent civilian wearing ap-
parel.
The main problem in using cloth
ing of this type is to really change
the appearance, and experience
proves that it can be done. Sad
colored olive drab can actually be
dyed so you won't know the origin.
And as for navy blue, it's a good
substantial color which you prob
ably won't change. especially if you
change the style Of the garment
sufficiently.
If you've had a WAVE in the
family, then you'll be surprised how
beautifully her navy blue suit al
ters into something very attractive.
If the girl herself is using the suit,
it probably won't need much alter
alton in fitting. Remove the in
sigma. and add some bright red
braid around the shoulders and
sleeves, or run the braiding all
around the bustline in several
rows, and you'll be surprised at how
nicely the garment reconverts.
It's only natural that you might
hesitate at dyeing the heavy olive
drab garments but it really can be
done.
Wool Dyeing Requires
Simmering Temperature
The important points to remem-
Der when dyeing woolens can be
summarized in five steps. These
are particularly applicable when you
are dyeing such things as ex-serv-
ice clothing
l. Measure the garment before
dyeing or draw its outline on
large sheet of paper for measur-
ing purposes.

While I was knocking down the
hills with artillery, 7 would keep my
eyes open for the colonel who used
to follow us on our marches riding
in jeep. We would walk 10 miles
without sight of him, and then he
would pop out of side road and
give us the devil for not having our
packs slung right, or for not keeping

yet indicated that they have the
nerve to use the votes given them
by their constituents. In other
words, the filibuster.
But first, one of Drew's predic-
tons, or rather, two or three of
them. He predicted that some of
the moderate men in the steel in
dustry, led by Benjamin Fairless,
would persuade the die-hard reac-
tionaries in the industry that this
is not the time to attempt to wreck
the steel workers union as was done
shortly after the First World War:
that it is the time, instead, to meet
President Humans proposal, in
crease wages and get reconversion
going. And he predicted that, if
the moderates fail and the die
hards do have their way, the Presi-
dent would exercise his authority,
seize the steel plants, grant the
wage increase recommended by his
fact-flnding board and turn the Job
of running the mills over to Henry
j. Kaiser. Finally, that the Presi-
dent, under those circumstances
would ask Congress to repeal recent
tax legislation now said to be prov
Ing so profitable to U. S. Steel.
Same Band to Deal With.
So now I'll make a prediction.
I predict: That if the President
undertakes to carry out the program
suggested he will have the same
little band of Senate filibusterers to
deal with. That they will line up
as solidly against any effort to i'm
prove the wages of the steel work.
ers as they have lined up against
the Presidents effort to prevent
discrimination against workers on
the ground of race, religion or color.
That the flibusterers will make it
clear that it is not merely their
hatred or fear of the colored work.

premacy," that is moving them in
their present rule-or-ruin behavior;
that they are determined to keep

"Other Southerners," says the
United Press, after telling of Senator
Walter Georges purpose to partici-
pate this week in the filibuster,
while ready to continue their fill
buster against FEPC, felt their vic
tory was assured and had begun
preparing their strategy against the
pending bill to increase minimum
wages"
This is the bill to lift the mini
mum wage to IS cents an hour, it
being the Presidents idea that the
increase will enable a few million
Americans to live more like humans
and, at the same time, add some
thing to the national purchasing
power.

The band of Senate freebooters-I
q polite dictionary term for fill
busterers-being convinced they have
the Senate majority licked, have
begun preparing their strategy" on
minimum wages. They've had their
strategy ready all along, of course,
on the poll-taX bill, the strategy
being to raise the emotional race
issue and talk the bill to death
each time the House passes it.
But the minimum wage bill brings
them out into the open. They can
hardly hide behind white supremacy
and the skirts of Southern women
on that bill. THEY'LL have to admit
