By Leonard Craig
A great many factors go into
the choice of a particulardress
or blouse by the average wo
man. Fabric
design is one
of the most
When
you choose a
p articu
lar garment
oecause you
like the strik
ing design in
the fabric, be sure to consider
whether or not it will wear
well, clean well, and generally
prove serviceable.
A design which is woven into
the fabric is usually more ser
viceable than one which is af
fixed to it by pressure or em
bossing. Pressure application
can damage the fibers of the
yarn around the edges of the
design, creating a weakness
that might cause trouble later.
Adhesive or embossed designs
will sometimes wear out quick
ly or will be affected by clean
ing. A blouse or a lovely dress may
be so appealing that its beauty
will outweigh its limited ser
viceability. If it gives pleasure
it may still be worth buying.
Extra care in the handling and
cleaning of every garment is
part of our normal service.

ter clothes. If it can be clean

The HtuSe
: By Dolores Una, Your
,, Horn Extension Agent
--This years crop of navel orana
es is: reported to be. of -excellent
quality, more so than last year's
supply, vlt's ',a 'juicv. - seedless
orange with zestful flavor and a
fi-eesh aroma .. . .. it's- easy: to
peel,, it's a natural for eafing
iresn.-
To make sure you get the superior-navel
orange, look for the
deep rich color and the distinH-
ushing. navel formation .- at I'the
blossom end. It looks like a mini
ature -orange, within a larger one-.
Remember, size does not influ
ence-either the quality or the
flavor; of -the fruit. If the orange
is iirnr and smooth to the touch,
heavy for its size and free from
mold or soft spots, it's - a good
bet you have the "best buy ,'V"
For-a-fresh' touch to your win
tor menus add oranges often. Be
cause navel oranges arc seedless;
they're perfect for ambrosias
with onion slices for salads,
chunks for cold slaw, for the
morning eye-opener, for a fruit
nut and cheese tray and for the
children's lunch box.
Navel oranges arc picked-, clea
ned and packed- with care, so
that even the peel can be used
Remove the meat of the orange
carefully,' leaving the peel in a
single shell. Serve whipped sweet
potatoes in the orange shell to
give a festive toucn to dinner.
Use the remaining orange for
that favorite combination of or
ange pieces and coconut. . . Ambrosia.-
It makes a wonderful
topping for ice cream'or a special-
dessert or salad by itself.
A new textile fiber identifica
tion act was passed recently, pri
marily for your protection as a
consumer. By March, I960, the
manufacturer will have to tell the
consumers each fiber that makes
ud 5 or more of the total
veight of the fabric and also
what proportion each fiber is of
the total weight. It will be unlaw
ful to make false or deceptive
statements on' labels or in adver
tising. For example, to call ' ;
simulated fur fabric "mink-like'
will be prohibited. If the fiber is
imported the label must so state.
This' labeling'--' will - apply to
such items as clothing, furnish
ings, and floor, coverings.

their present church building
The ground work for this project

care for a Sunday school atten
dance of 250 and the sanctuary
will seat 275. Last week the
pastor was given a unanimous re
call vote to continue as pastor of
the church.
Impressive gains in every area
made the 1958 golden annivers
ary year one of the best in de
nominational history for the
Church of the Nazarcne.
The annual statsitical report
by Dr. S T. Ludwig, general
.secretary, showed that 232 new

churches to 4,587. The previous
h:gh was 202 new churches estab
lished in 1951. '
Church membership climbed
iboul 9,500 persons to 301,700,
cr a gain of 3.8 per cent. During
the decade of 1948-58, the de

bers, or an increase of 39 per
cent.
Also, for the first time in de
nominational history, the spe
cial offerings for world missions
at Easter and Thanksgiving each

Two Churches
Report Drive
Successful
Pastor Ed Harms of the Sev
enth-Day Adventist churches of
La Grande and Cove expressed
deep appreciation Saturday at the
services, for the wholehearted
manner in which the community
cooperated in the church s an
nual World-Wide Welfare Drive.
Pastor Harms reported that
business solicitation and Christ
mas caroling was a complete
success and the amount raised
exceeded the combined goal of
the two churches of $1,125, by
more than $100. He also pointed
out that many of the members
qualified as "Minute Men by
turning in $25 or more. This
amount is sufficient to support
the world-wide mission and wel
fare work of the denomination
for one minute. . " I
"We want to thank our friends
and neighbors," the minister said,
"for their willingness to enter
into the drive through their con
tributions." "Some," he added,
"have themselves qualified as
'Minute Men.'"
The funds will supplement the
$60,000,000 annual program of
medical, educational, welfare, and
missions work conducted by the
church in 185 lands.
