Southern Oregon News Review, Thursday, October 3J, 1946 Woman's World Scmi-Formals Need Variety If You Want Balaneed Taste fäij £ r t t a F R IE N D of mine confided to me recently that she never seemed to have as smart looking clothing as her friends, although she spent as much as they did. After checking her wardrobe, we found that she made one error from sea son to season. It’s an easy^rror to fall into, and one you may be guilty of without perhaps realizing It. This friend of mine had found one basic dress that she liked and she bought a similar one every year, even though in a slightly different color. Although the basic design was becoming to her, it finally became so monotonous that she felt she was not having any variety in her wardrobe, as were her friends. Every woman should realize that every season requires something entirely different in the way of color and design if she is to be complete ly happy about her clothes. 1 cer tainly don’t suggest that you go in for bizarre experiments in clothing, hats or accessories, but there are many attractive colors and styles from which to choose.

LYN N SAYS: Unless you have your own vege tables, choose those you buy with extreme care. Look for fresh ness, since most vegetables lose their crispness and flavor as soon as they are picked. When using frozen vegetables, it’s best not to let them defrost before cooking as they deteriorate rapidly after thawing. Experts say they should be placed in boil ing water in their frozen form.

If the jewelry is large and glittery, select something sim pie and classic to show it off. Or, if you have a very attractive lacy dickey, make a dress that will truly show it off well. On dresses such as these, use a very good qual ity material, simply but well made Small tucks or pleats in the bodice or skirt may be used effectively, but they should be well tailored. flOSCMlUÍSi urvun FAST! STAYS FASSÿft Laundering Shirts Washing and ironing a shirt is not the contrary job it’s reput ed to be, even though there are many older homemakers who hate the thought of doing the shirts. There’s a trick, or per haps several of them, to doing the job properly. First of all, make sure the shirt is clean. Put it through two washings to make sure it is immaculate. Use a soft but firm brush for scrubbing collars and cuffs, as they soil most easily. Never rub the two together as this simply paves the way for fraying. Turn the pockets out and make sure there is no dirt, grime or tobacco resting at the bottom of the pocket. If you don’t do this, there's bound to be trouble dur ing ironing. If it is a cotton shirt you are washing, make the first rinse wa ter warm, the second cool. Rinse twice. Starch while wet but consult the man as to how he likes his shirt starched. When you hang the shirt to dry, try to get most of the wrin kles out of it by shaking them out. This makes the ironing eas ier. When dry, dampen slightly and roll in a towel, but do not wad the shirt too tightly as this will create wrinkles that just need to be ironed. Start ironing with the wrong side of the collar, then go to the right side. Yoke and sleeves are next. Then iron down the front of the shirt so as to shape the shirt properly. If you make an addition to the ironing board about the size of a bread board, but quite a bit lighter and pad this, it can be slipped over the regular board and used for shirts.
