But, when a shirt is so worn that it can no longer be used by the man of the family, it is welcome materia) for aprons, which are so useful and es sential. Shirts become worn around the collar and sleeves, also under the armholes and cuffs. After these have been turned and worn again, there’s nothing much that can be done with them.
