Mothers everywhere will be shopping for school clothes. Just now stores are having sales on their yard goods. Some fabrics are of cotton, some wool and others of new fibers or their blends. If you make some of your youngsters' clothing, a visit to these stores may save you dollars: Provided you know what will be needed next summer, you might want to buy now and put it away. If you have shopped, for yard (roods recently, you may have been amazed and confused, too, by the many kinds of materials. Perhaps you saw a fabric of or lon and wool Maybe a material which looked like cotton caught your eye, but the label said it was dynel, nylon and cotton. Perhaps it didn't even carry a labeL You know what to expect of nylon or cotton, but a blend of nyIon cot ton and dynel is a big question. for most homemakers. Finishes Vary In addition to the new fibers and many blends' there are also different finishes to materials. (These finishes maybe, crush re- sistant, water repellent, mercer ized, flame resistant or many others. ' Textiles, their combinations and their finishes are becoming too complicated for most of us to fully grasp. Rayon and acetate must be labeled, but there are no labeling laws on the other man made fabrics. Some are labeled because of sales appeal of the labeL What is the homemaker going to do until labels tell how a cer tain fabric and finish will serve for a particular use? There are several alternatives. We can sit back and let others be the guinea pigs! We can try the new fabrics. have fun, but not feel too bad if they aren't the "wonder fabrics" we thought they were going to be. We can use more of the fibers that are familiar to us the ones whose care has been determined and whose behavior we under stand. Get the Data We can keep asking for more informative labeling, remember ing that it takes a lot of asking before we get action. When there isnt any label, or it does not give the information we need, ask for that information. We can take an indifferent at titude to that advertising which is only glamorous and fantastic, and gives almost no facts. We can develop a proper perspective to the constantly "new" appearing on the market We can curb our phobia for "the new thing. We can purchase from a reli able dealer; whose goods are de pendable, ah new libers are more alike that the manufacturer would have you believe. It is the finish used for fiber andd fabric that makes so much difference. What is true today may not be true in tomorrow's textile world. We have come from a "rule of thumb" into a world of science with constant changes. For thous ands of years only four textiles were known, cotton.wooL linen and silk. Now, within the lives of most consumers, we have an entire new world of textiles.; We need to be concerned with how we ourselves are developing and learning about this now world of textiles. We can't rest today on what we learned yesterday. The textile world today is the most fascinating of all history, and probably the most confusing.

There really was a Sally Lunn and she really was connected with the rich, golden Sally Lunn bread served in the 18th century King's Arms Tavern in this restored col onial city. Although Sally Lunn has been the pride of southern cooks for generations, the original young lady of that name came from Bath, England, where, in the 18th century, she first sold the warm, crumbly bread that bears her name: According to the Oxford English Dictionary, "a respect able baker and musician" finally bought her business and wrote a song about her. The fame of Sally Lunn also reached the American colonies in the 18th century, for there are various recipes for the .bread in the cookbooks used by colonial housewives. At the reconstructed King's Arms Tavern here it is served as part of the colonial menu and gives rise to one of the most oft-repeated questions' here from visitors. -. w , i i Dry Milk'Can Be' Used for Many Dishes i- Nonfat dry milk is extremley versatile for it can be used in tookingj and baiting, for drink ing, with cereals and will even Whip.
