Window Sewing Tips

When you are sewing tops and
mems on sheer curtain material,
place a tissue paper underneath
the material while sewing on the
machine to prevent it from puck
ering or pulling. Simply rip off
the paper when you are finished.
Unlined draperies need four
inches of material for the head
ing and FIVE inches for the hem.
Be sure to add these measure
ments to those for the length Of
the window.
You may save time basting win
dow draperies and curtains by
marking off the stitches with a
single straight line drawn with
chalk. Be sure to use a fiat sur
face for this, however.
Make certain machine is ad-
iusted properly for different thick
nesses Of sewing material by
testing first on a scrap Of the
material you are using. Saves
time and stitching.
To make tailored curtains,
pleat sheer material and use a
fringed cornice treatment for in
teresting effect,
Reinforce the heading of your
draperies with a 3k inch width
of crinoline. This will help drap-
cries hang better and prevent
heading from slipping forward
and exposing the rods.

the plain across the cornice and
hang floor length panels of solid col
ored drapery material. Three pam
els make nice looking treatment,
a panel at each side and one down
the middle.
If you have a room in the attic
with small windows, you can have
an inexpensive treatment for them
by using feed, sugar or flour sacks
dyed to match the color scheme Of
the room. Use short tailored cur
tains and run them across the win
dows. Place a cornice or ruffle at
the top of the windows in a contrast
ing, darker shade than you have
used for the curtains themselves.
Making stubby windows appear
longer is a trick that some of us
need at one time or another. A cor
nice is the easiest way to do this
as it creates the illusion of height.
If you use sheer curtains and drap-
cries both at the window have
enough of the drapery material so
that you can cut the two complete
patterns from the drapery and paste
these on either side of the cornice.
Another simple way of making the
window look longer is to use a cor
nice and have the top and sides
piped or painted with material
picked up from the room, a dark,
solid color is best. Then pipe the
curtains with this same material
where they come together and at the
bottom.

letting them overlap. Use interest

dash of color.
If you have short windows, hang
them with short, sheer curtains, but
don't stop there! Have a cornice
in an attractive color, and then pipe
drapery material which has been
set on the sides of the window with
the same color you have in the cor
nice.
Or use a cornice made of pleat-
ed or gathered drapery material and
let the material of extra draperies
go at the edges Of the window.
Another treatment that is very
smart employs sheer curtains, but
colorful chintz is added to the
cornice, and deep border of the

ColOrful New Curtains Give
Needed Tonic to Many Homes
& G>tta Haley

THIS Is the time of year when
L many a homemaker gets the
urge to do something different to
her home. I've even heard OF this
feeling taking expression in such
drastic steps as changing the whole
layout of furniture, or in buying new
things that put big dents in the
budget. %
Most of us can't afford this big
dose of tonic, so I'm going to tell
you of a simple way to add new
feeling to the home and to give your
self lift at the same time. You'll
find that simply adding new treat
ments to the windows will give you
just the touch of freshness you're
seeking.
First, here's tip about selecting
color. Study the room carefully
and try to pick up one of the colors
in your furnishings or wallpaper
which you've neglected. Then see
il this can't be made up into the
window treatment.
If, for example, you want to use
sheer curtains in a creamy white
or ecru shade. don't give up the idea
Of using color. For a treatment such
as this, you might make frame for
the window out of wall board or ply
wood. Incidentally. this is nice
trick for making narrow windows
look more luxurious. Paint the frame
in an attractive design and run it
down to the floor; if the window is
short, run the frame across the bot
tom. Prepared trimmings which are
sef-pasting also may be used to dec
crate the frame, if you are not handy
with a brush.

MAYOR BARNES RETURNS
 FROM VACATION IN STATES

Mayor Doris Barnes, Alaska s only woman Mayor, returned this morning from a two-months vaca- tien trip to the States which took her as far as San Francisco where she visited relatives. Mayor Barnes spent most of her time in Portland, Oregon, with her mother, Mrs. O. M. Hummer and while there re- ceiVed much publicity in the~ Port land papers result of which was a flood of telephone calls from persons interested in coming to Al aska One of the outstanding was from a man named O'Nein, who had been sent to Portland by a group of midwest mechants and wholesalers to look into the possi- bilities of establishing midwest markets with Alaska through Port land or Canada, or both. Mayor Barnes quoted him as saying that the midwest is eager to estaDllsn markets in the north and s4e ad- vised him to fly up to look the slt- uation over personally, which he
 
 had a notebook full of names of persons who had contacted her in Portland on opportunities in Alas ka and to all she gave the same advice come up and look the situation over. One man is greatly interested in starting a cabinet and upholstery shop in Wrangeli and Mayor Barnes expects him up shortly.
 While in Portland she also at- tended the Alaska-Yukon meeting and met many old-timers there. A mong the old-timers she met was a V. L. Holt who phoned her and asked about Wrangell. He said he had taught school here in 1902-3 and remembered Ernie and Leon. ard Campbell.

STEAMSHIP COMPANIES
 ARGUMENTS SHATTERED
 IN RATE INCREASE CASE

JUNEAU - Arguments for a freight rate increase as explained before the Territorial House and Senate Monday Csee Periscopel, were shattered by George Rogers. former OPA price executive who Is now economist for the Department of Interior assigned to Alaska.
 Arguing for the increase was Alex Mcdonald, Viee-President or the Alaska Steamship Company, who claimed operating losses of more than 12 million dollars dur ing the first six months of 1946.
 Rogers demolished Mcdonald s claims in nothing flat. He brought out the following facts:
 "The Maritime Commission has rejected the steamship company 5 report as not covering a represent ative period of time for these req sons:
 "1. Operation by the first six months of 1946 were by the War Shipping Administration and not by private carriers The VISA does not receive pay for mail and other freight carried for govern ment agencies which is a fruitful source of revenue.
 "2. The period covered in the company report did not include the lush months during which salmon i. shipped south, bringing in grear- ly augmented revenue.
 "3. Operating expenses claimed in the steamship company report include some large labor awards for overtime payments for services performed prior to 1946."
 Rogers also showed that an overall increase of 35 per cent asked by the companies included passenger rates as well as freight and that the actual freight rate increase was 45 per cent above present rates and 68 per cent a. bove 1941 rates.
 Rogers also listed numerous cat egories of freight important to the cost of living in Alaska including building materials, cars, food, fur niture, etc., in which the increase ranged upward to 72 per cent.

The Petersburg Air Service plane, piloted by Gil .Toynt, spotted about six dead deer algon the beach on it's first trip to Wrangell after the cold snap
 A membership drive will be in itiated to bolster the treasury funds and Fred V. Wagner, of the Alaska-Asiatie Lumber Mills of fered to donate fifty dollars to help in the proposed conservation and deer survey.
 Officers were elected for the coming year with Lee Ellis being reelected President; Chuck Eslick, Yice-President and Arnold Fry, Secretary.
 It was decided to hold meetings every month from now on with the second Monday of each month as regular meeting night.
 Several recommendations were made by the Association Monday night; the first one being to leave the moose season as it is but to outlaw spotting moose from an air plane and to place a warden on the river one week before and af- ter the moose season.
 It was recommended that the deer, duck, goose and goat seasons remain as they are now. An in crease in the bounty on hair seal was recommended to make it worth while to get rid of them; the in creased bounty to be five dollars.
 On trapping regulations it was recommended that the marten sea son be closed next year but the season on mink, weasel and otter be opened.
