Frazier, and Woodie King, Jr.
have combined their fine acting
talents to present an attack on
racial prejudice and the use of
color as a means of labelling a
man and thereby dehumanizinp
him.
Chaplain Boyd, an angry yovnq
author who seems TO have a
lot to say on the subject, said:
The three plays. taken together,
are designed 70 disturb audiences
ouf OF eompIseeney about human
injustice, TO raise sharp qves-
fions about snthropoIosy and the
exisfenfisI human condition and
70 harass an oversimpIified com.

There isn't a simple
method of doing any decora-
tive details such as fagoting,
hemstitching, ETC., but there
is always a right way, and
you'll find such work isn't
so difficult when it is prop
erly done.
Question: Is there an easy
way to fagot? I'd appreciate
your help.-MiSs NJ. K. P.
Answer: Since you didn't
specify whether you were in
terested in criSs-croSs or bar
fagoting, I'll show you the
one most widely used-criss-
cross fagoting.
Baste the edges OF the fab
ric to be fagoted to paper.
Stitch from top to bottom,
Slanting your stitches from
one side to the other and
always going under the
thread of the last stitch.
After the edges are finished,
tear away the paper.
If you'll look at the illus
tration, I think you'll easily
understand these instruc-
tions and see how really
simple it is to fagot.
