County area suddenly disturbed
the peace and quiet of the home
service office at Red Cross head
quarters recently.

run driver!
Her baby was dead and she
wanted her husband, a sailor on
a ship in mid-Pacific, brought
home Immediately.
Mrs. La Mar, an experienced
Red Cross volunteer, went into
action. After calling the local
funeral homes for verification of
the death and details, and find
ing no accident victim had been
brought to them, she next tried
the police station. No accident
case was found on record there
either.
Many hours and many tele.
phone Gals later, the police de.
partment reported back that
Jenny" was a dog!
This is only one of the MANY

New Product
Helps Carpets
Resist Soil

Now it's possible for the home
maker to buy soil-retardant to
treat carpets and rugs against at
least part of the soil to which
they are subjected, says Vivian
L. Curnutt, Extension home fur.
nishings specialist, University of
Maryland.
The soil-retardant contains tiny
particles of silica which fill the
pores and the tips of the pile
fibers of the carpet. They are
held by the fibers and resist re-
moval by vacuum cleaner or car.
pet sweeper.
This keeps the dirt from be-
coming embedded in the fibers,
and causes it to remain on the
surface where it is easily remov-
ed. The soil-retardant solution
may be used on any rug or carpet
fiber. One pint will treat a by
IL rug.
Tests show that carpets and
rugs, when treated with a solu.
ton of this type, stay clean five
times longer than those not
treated. A number of rugs are
now being treated right in the
plant in which they are manufac.
tured.
Retreatment with the retardant
is necessary after the rug has
been commercially cleaned as
approximately IS percent of the
retardant's effectiveness remains
after cleaning.
