If you're one of the for
tunate women who have
owned a zigzag machine, you
know what wonderful things
you can do with it. It's dec
orative stitches are amazing,
and it makes seam finishing
and mending as simple to do
as straight stitching.
Here are just a few finish
ing and mending hints for
those Of you who have just
bought a new zigzag machine
and are not yet too familiar
with it.
Tricot and Jersey Gig. y:
The machine is ideal for
stitching on these fabrics.
With a straight-stitch ma
chine, you must always
stretch the fabric as you
stitch to give it the elas-
ITCHY necessary to keep seams
from splitting. With the new
zigzag. you just stitch without
stretc hing, because the
stretch is provided by the
stitching.
Sheer Fabrics Gig. p:
Sheers, such as chiffon, are
finished by first stitching the
seam on the seam line with
a row of straight stitching,
then making a row of zigzag
stitching just outside the
straight stitched row. The
stitch should be adjusted for
a small zigzag stitch. Trim
off the excess seam allowance
8 very close to the zigZag stitch
ing.
Seam Finish Gig. 81: In
stead Of overcasting the raw
edges Of your seams by hand,
you can now finish them in
half the time with the zig
gag stitch. Check your in
struction booklet for stitch
size. Then, place the stitch
ing near the edge Of the seam
allowance and trim away the
excess fabric.
Mending Garter Gig. ~:
Check your instruction book
let for size Of stitch necessary
for this type Of fabric (the
elasticized type used on
girdles) and zigzag the garter
back on again. You'll also
find that restricting ripped
seams or tears on your foun-
dalton garment is simple be-
cause Of the elasticity of the
stitch. If the shoulder straps
of your bra tear, repair them
in the same way you did the
garter.
Applique Lace Gig. 81:
Applique should be used when
joining two pieces Of lace, or
when it is necessary to add a
piece to a circular skirt.
First, pin one edge of the,
lace to tissue paper. Then,
lay the other piece of lace
over the first, matching the
lace motif perfectly. Basic
the two overlapped pieces to-
gether about Q inches from
the edge, sewing through
both lace and paper. Using
embroidery scissors, trim the
overlapped piece around the
edge Of the motif to give you
the stitching line you want.
Basic along the cut outline,
close to the edge. Applique
the pieces together, zig
tagging just over the cut
edge. After you have done
this, tear the tissue off and
trim the underneath piece of
lace to "a inch from the
Seamline.

ADVICE TO MOTHERS -
Don't Compare Babies

much as any other thing"
The pediatrician, father of
two daughters and a son who
is now a pediatrician, and
grandfather Of six, recalls
that one of his children talked
at l. one at 8.
Learning to talk is a mat
ter Of lip reading. One baby
will look off into space. an
other will watch your lips a
lot. Both babies are normal
but the one who watches your
lips will be the first to talk"
DR.. Givan, past president
of the New York State Med
ical Society. says, so many
factors affect learning to
talk we don't even know
what all of them are. But
environment has a lot to do
with IL.

"A great many babies don't
talk because they don't have
to. People are giving them
everything they want. In a
large family they're apt to
talk early. They mimic each
other and they have to talk
to get things.
"A parent shouldn't be
overanxious. If anything is
wrong with the baby, the doc
tor will know. If he's men,
tally deficient. the doctor us
ually can tell it within the
first six months"
The pediatrician admon-
ishes that the baby who
talks early mayor may not
turn out to be the bright
est student In school. He may
or may not-be the hap
piest. best adjusted baby in

NEW YORK (AP).-Your
neighbor's baby walks and
talks. But yours, Just about
the same age, doesn't even
crawl and hasn't said a word

Stand.
What should you do?
THE best thing" says pc
tiatrician DR.. Thurman B.
GiVan, "is to relax.

all within the category of
normal. There are the on-the.
go jumpy little rascals-you
can almost tell them in the
nursery; there are the lazy
babies-they put on weight
easily and just let the world
roll off their shoulders-and
there are the average
normals.
THE average age for a
baby to stand up is Z to 8
months. Then they soon start
crawling though some never
crawl. And the average baby
will walk at about a year.
But the jumpy baby is
going to start all this sooner
than the lazy one"
DR.. Givan, who practices in
Brooklyn and teaches at the
State University of New
York's Downstate Medical
Center, says that because
babies do differ he always
gives mothers this advice:
Don't compare notes"
But, knowing this is an
Injunction that stroller
pushing ladies are not going
to be able to heed, he adds:
"And let the doctor do the
worrying"
DR.. Givan sometimes ad-
vises the mother of a fat,
lazy baby to exercise his arms
and legs. But most babies
get plenty of exercise them
selves" he says. Most babies
today sleep on their stom-
achs. They push themselves
up and down"
The age at which children
begin to talk varies even
more than the age at which
they walk, DR.. Givan says.
