LAUNDRY BLUES? = These
hot days it sometimes seems an
impossible job to keep up with
the laundry. As soon as one
washing is done, there are
other clothes to take down to
the coin-operated washing ma
chimes and dryers or to wash
in the kitchen or bath.
BY choosing clothing for your
self and your family with avail
able laundry facilities in mind
you may be able to cut down
considerably on the time con-
sumed in washing and ironing.
This means reading the
washing directions on clothes
before you buy. We saw a cot
ton knit shirt a few days ago
which looked as if it should
Igo into an automatic washer.
Its directions for washing, how
ever, read like those for a cash.
mere sweater.
Check also whether the items
must be washed in soap or can
stand detergent. 1t takes much
longer to do the washing If one
or two things must be washed
with soap, a few more with
detergent. and a few more with
bleach to keep them white.
The fewer hand-washables in
your wardrobe. the less time
washing will take. Watch out
especially for hand washable
which are bulky and hard to
wiring out by hand, for those
which must be hung up dripping
wet, and for those which must
be drapped in towels which in
turn become drying problem
in apartments, especially in
humid weather.
After q period of careful buy
ing, you will find that more of
your wash will 60 into the washer
and dryer, and much less time
will be spent washing and
wringing things in the kitchen
sink.
RAINY DAY GAMES-Rainy
days with the children playing
indoors are always a test for a
mothers ingenuity and endur-
ance. Here are a few ideas for
C atching children's interest
which might help on "those"
days.
Finger painting; This usually
makes a big hit with small fry,
and requires no more than some
paints and a roll of wrapping
paper. Paints can be made
from a solution of laundry
starch and food coloring. Add
ing some soap flakes to the So
luton makes the paints smoother
and eases the job of cleaning UP
when accidents occur.
A blanket fort: This is not
recommended for hot weather,
but on cool days you can drape

causes its death. at the hands Of some
one who has never had the experience.
But 1t may be safely said that the
majority of birds that are helped by
humanity live to hold little glow in
their hearts for us. Maybe the day
will come when humanity will need all
the love it can get.
In the meantime, let us continue to
give the wild creatures such help as we
can.
The personality of the starting is
very much worth investigating, except
by few closed minds that already
have decided it is bad bird
1t must be marvellous to have all
the answers in this life.
Most OF us will continue to want to
know, and this includes the starlings,
the common sparrows. and some others
Of the underbirds. as we have called
them.
Surely the startling is one of the
most capable of all the flyers. Does
1t not live the life of Riley, as the
saying is. eating good Maryland and
Virginia grain, and flying back to its
steam-heated quarters on downtown
buildings?
The starting is beautiful. especially
when the sun shines on him.
He is great flyer. in flying age,
one that man. with his engines, may
envy. Watch the msssed flights Of the
starlings. and see some of the finest
precision flying being done today.

for State offices were being whitfield down
by late returns outside the metropolitan
centers and the final gains are not likely
to reflect significant trend toward either
party.
Still, continuation of Democratic SUI
premacy in Chicago has obvious value not
only to the party Statewide but to the pos
sible repeat candidacy of Adlai Stevenson
for presidential nomination. Mr.. Steven
son, who was supported for his nomination
In 1852 by the Arvey organization, Endorsed
Mr.. Daley in this weeks contest. Presum-
ably, If Mr.. Stevenson wants to be the
Democratic presidential candidate in 1856,
the Chicago city machine will be available
to give him further important support.
And the Illinois convention delegation,
fourth largest in the country, is worth
