CLEANING sTTJFFED ToYs.

GAEAN1NG STUFFED TOYS.
fFYom Mrs. J. E. c.. Arlington.J
I have found that plush toys
wash very well If you remove the
Stufing first. Rip q seam in the
back or wherever you find one
that viii work from easily. In
stead of refilling with the old
stunning. try using old nylon
stockings that have had the feet
and tops cut OF. Then when
they need washing again, you do
not need to take them apart. The
nylon dries quickly so they do not
sour as the cotton does. have
never used q dryer. Just hang
them on the line.
If the faces wash OF embroider
new eyes. mouth. etc., or buttons
make good eyes if they cannot be
pulled on. My sister-in-laW used
to clean toys with a sudsy de-
tergent. but she did not immerse
the whole toy. Dip soft brush
in the SudS and clean as they do
with some types of carpet cleaner.
Do not get into the water. just the
SudS. Hang on the line-a breezy
day is best. I have not had the
patience to do it myself. =
(From Mrs. Z. M. f., WasIlington.J
To the person who asked for q
method Of washing stuffed toys
I have my own method. It's sure
but not very quick. First / open
the toy at the final, hand-sewn
seam. This is usually underneath
or at the back. just below the head.
Then remove all stuffing, being
careful to keep each section as
compact as possible. This way it
is easy to refill with the same cot
ton or straw. In some cases
where eyes are lost I reSew butt
tons in their place. You can wash
the toy to silky fluff and even
dye the toy If for an older child.
Drying is fast and restufflng is
only a matter Of minutes. Resew
your seam.

IRONER.

fFrom M. J. M, HynttsUille.)
I have had an ironer since 1888
and / am still using it. When ]
first bought it my sons We're 5
and 10 years. I ironed everything
on it, shirts, trousers, my house
dresses and all fiat work. My
ironer doesn't have a heat control.
Now they all have them making it
possible to iron rayon or nylon and
Jersey. # ! were buying one today
] would select one with both ends
free as it would be so much easier
to iron shirts. It takes patience to
use an ironer but it is well worth
the trouble as you can finish a
shirt better than most Of the
laundries do now and they have
a stiffness that isn't there when
ironed with a fiat iron.

In this suggestion for cleaning
fuzzy stuffed toys earlier. All the
feminine members of our family
used to have a gala fur and toy
cleaning day twice a year-outside
in our back yard where there was
no danger of fire or explosion.
Our cleanser was white corn meal
dampened with benzine. We would
rub the dampened corn meal into
all our white furs and fuzzy toys.
Then we would shake it out and
finally brush out and away any
final traces. To my memory the
results were very satisfying to all.
I believe any of the commercial
cleaners with white corn meal
would have just as satisfactory
results and would be safer to use.
This method of cleaning toys does
not saturate. It just leaves the
surface dry and fluffy.

SAVING TIME


from Mrs. E. A. G.. Wasllington.j j
For mothers Of young babies
who are anxious to make the
most Of their time, I would sug-
gest three things: Diaper liners
terminal sterilization of milk OF
formula and brushless bottle
washer.
At first, I thought diaper liners
would be rather expensive luxury,
With any types Of liners this
would be, but there is one which
] have found to be both inexpen-
sive and practical. I put these
in the diaper each time it is
changed. At first glance the liner
seems as if it would irritate the
baby. but ! have been using them
for four months now without any
trouble at all.
If your doctor approves, ter
minal sterilization will save much
time in the preparation of your
formula. There are two disad-
'yantages to this method-Scum
on the milk and spots on the
bottle. The trick to preventing
scum on the milk which will clog
the nipples is in taking the bot
ties of formula right from the
boiling kettle and plunging them
up to their necks in icy cold
water. Also, be sure to agitate
the bottles at least three times
during the first five minutes OF
cooling. The only bottle I have
found which will take this kind
of treatment is made of fame
ware. They are wide-necked bot
ties and there is also a narrow
necked. They are, of course. a little
more expensive than those made
of glass, but you can easily make
up the difference in the things
you don't have to buy-strainers
tongs, nipple jars, etc.
Brushless bottle washer will
not completely eliminate the bot
tle-washing chore when you use
terminal sterilization and would
be quite expensive even If it did.
However. l teaspoon of the pow
der to the gallon of water (the
box calls for tablespoon per
gallon) and q 15-minute pre-
wash soak will reduce bottle
scrubbing time to O mere fraction
Of that required otherwise. One
box of washing powder always
lasts me a month, more or less.
CLINGING DRESS?

Souiet Community Decreases
so Percent

LONDON (JTA)-Of the 3,000,-
900 Jews who resided in the So
Wet Union at the beginning of
1889, there are only 100000 left,
according to the Yugoslav Review
of International Affairs. The Bel
grade publication said that of 100
Soviet generals who have recent
ly retired, or "died suddenly" 63
were Jews. 1t asserted that 80
per cent of the Jews in the Soviet
Union are in concentration camps.
Pointing out that during the
Nazi invasion of Poland many
Jews fled to Russia, and that there
were an additional 100000 Jews
in Soviet-annexed Polish territory
in the early stages of the war, the
Yugoslav organ says that even if
the Nazis killed 100000 Jews
during their occupation of Soviet
territory, Moscow does not ac-
count for about 100000.

Arab Meeting
Set For Egypt

LONDON (JTA)-Inforned po-

Arab League meeting in Cairo
will be used as sounding board
to test Egypt's attitude toward a
peace treaty with Israel. If
Egypt shows no inclination to
reach settlement with the Jew
ish State, the other Arab coun-
tries will demand that Egypt sup
port the projected new and in
tensified economic amp a g n
against Israel. On the other hand,
these sources say, if Egypt indi-
Gates that it is considering a peace
pact, the others will hurry onto
the band wagon in order to OBJ
tain whatever benefits they can
from a settlement.

The immediate steps, DR.. Bern
stein said, should include the
abolition of foreign currency con-
troll, parliamentary supervision
of foreign currency expenditures
of the government, abolition of
control of imports and the saw
ing of essential commodities. The
long-term steps should include
cuts in the government budget,
establishing of a consolidation
fund for IsraeIs currency, and
the encouragement of capital in
vestments and of export.
