Don't throw away that white
summer hat just because it it a
little dingy. Its orinigal white
look can be restored with soap
suds. Just make sure before you
start that any trimmings are
washable or can be removed.
Then start by scrubbing the
brim or binding with a we'll
soaped stiff brush. If it's fabric
hat such as pique or linen, you
can dunk it right into warm soap
suds and rinse. For straw, it's
best to scrub with dry" soapsuds
the heavy lather scooped off
with a damp cloth, wrung out of
clear water.
You can block the hat over
shaped bowl or on your own hat
block" if you don't happen to
own the professional type.
Press fabric hat while it is
still slightly damp. Rotate sect
ion by section to eliminate all
creases. First step is to iron the
lining, band and underSide of the
brim. Next, do the CROWN, inside
and outside. A rounded, padded,
press mitt makes an excellent
'block" for shaping the crown.
Finally, press the brim on the
right side. If your linen or pique
hat has a wide brim and you
want it to be flat instead of
floppy," use a thin starch rinse.

short. bent, blunt, or incorrectly
put into the machine can be the
cause of difficulties. There are
many different kinds of sewing
machines and only eight STYLES
of needles that will fit any OF
these machines.
The secret is to get the right
needles for your machine. Buy
machine needles by number OF
letter rather than by the make
of the machine. Look on your
machine for needle specifications
Or, if you are buying new sew
ing machine, be sure to get the
manufacturers instructions about
the right needle size.

1 have read, with a great deal of
care, the joint explanation by the
County Chapter and the National
Foundation for Infantile Paralysis,
which you will find on Page of this
issue, regarding their refusal to ac-
cept the March of Dimes donation
for $4,000 from the employees of the
Fairchild Aircraft Division, given
under the corporations Voluntary
Employee Contribution Plan.
1t seems to me that the National
organization has swallowed an ele-
plant, but is choking on a gnat."
In the Joint explanation, the state
ment is made: THAT the only feas-
ible means both of educating people
regarding the problems of polio and
of enlisting their financial support
is the separately conducted and iden-
titled appeal" but they seem to
have entirely lost sight of the fact
that the employees of Fairchild's,
like the rest of us, read the news
papers, listen to the radio and watch
televiSion, three channels that dis
seminate news and information and
are doing magnificent job of edu-
eating the people regarding the prob
lens of polio and encouraging them
to contribute to the March of Dimes.
So, as far as l am concerned, it
simply boils itself down to the fact
that the organization is trying to die
tate to the employees of Fairchild, a
thinking group of men and women
who, when they voluntarily contrib
uted through the Employee Contri-
button Plan, certainly knew what
they were doing. d,
said in this column last week
and l repeat it again, that this I'M
called for action of the National Or
ganization could have disastrous eff
fects on all the other independent
drives in Washington County, such
as the Red Cross and the Cancer
Drive.
Individuals are not going to give
their hard earned dollars, if they are
going to be dictated to as to how
they are to give it - at least | am
not.
One of the greatest joys of my life
is keeping up with the former mem
.bers of my old Scout Troop and it is
seldom that any of the boys-now
young men-living away from Hag-
erstown, come back home that they
don't drop in to see me.
From time to time Ell Ellinger, Jr.,
while at college, dropped by and
each time he told me that whenever
he got an opportunity to finish the
work necessary, he was going to try
for his Eagle Scout rank because, as
he put it, 81 like to finish anything
that start"
You can imagine how happy was
then, when a couple of weeks ago
while on 20-day leave at home be-
fore leaving for the West Coast en-
route to the Far East, he gave up
quite bit of that cherished leave
to pass the necessary tests which he
did in fine style.
You will find the story of the pre-
sentation of the Eagle badge else
where on this page.

Senator Mccarthy offering me a free.
