Cleaners' bills reach their highest peak in the winter months due to the belief on the part of some wo men that woolen clothes are too dif ficult to clean or too easily ruined to be attempted In the home. This idea is not altogether true as with care and a little time woolen ma terials may be made to look like new at home just the same as in a cleaning establishment Before giving you a few simple spot removers, something should be said about the wool fiber and why we must use care in cleaning it. The fibers are short, and are covered with tiny overlapping scales resem bling those of a fish. Woolen ma terials shrink because these scales expana when put into hot water, then when they dry they contract Also if wool is wrung or ironed while wet the pressure exerted on the fibers causes the scales to Inter lock or shrink. Alkalis or strong soaps soften the walls of the fibers and. cause the scales to open out ward, thus destroying the natural beauty of woolen materials. For these reasons care must be taken in cleaning wool. Although strong acids will not affect the wool fiber, they will bleach the dye in the material. Stains on fabrics should be re moved just as soon as possible since they may "set" permanently if left too long before trying to remove them. Always treat the stains be fore washing, if the garment is washable, or before dipping it in gasoline or some other dry-cleaner. A glass medicine dropper is very convenient for use In treating stains as it will allow you to place your solution exactly where you want it Most spots especially grease spots should be cleaned from the edge working toward the center. This drives all of the grease in to one point where it may be ab sorbed by holding a piece of blotting paper or a towel under the spot. This prevents formation of a ring around the part cleaned. One of the simplest methods to remove a grease spot from wool is to absorb it by covering the spot with talcum powder, French chalk, or starch, and letting it stand for several hours. Brush carefully and repeat if necessary. Another meth od is to lay the stained fabric on white blotting paper or any kind of soft, unglazed paper cover with any of the absorbent powders men tioned or with more paper and press with a warm iron. Repeat, using fresh paper or powder until spot is removed. This will also remove can dle wax. Benzene, naphtha, gaso line and turpentine will all dissolve grease. Several brands of commer cial dry cleaners are also good. For blood stains or meat juice make a paste of starch and cold water. Place stain over a folded towel or some other pad and apply the starch paste. This is excellent for flannel, blankets and heavy materials. Coffee or cocoa stains may be re moved by using a grease remover if there was cream in the coffee and then by wetting the spot with cold water and applying a paste made of borax. If the material is washable, wash with cold water, otherwise when the paste dries brush it away. Fruit stains may be removed in the same way as poffee stains. Ink is one of the hardest stains to remove from colored materials because most of the removers also bleach the material. For white fab rics one may use either lemon juice and salt and laying the material in the bright sunlight, or soak the fabric in sour milk. Sometimes ink may be removed by absorbing it in blotting paper with a warm iron. For iron rust use salt, lemon juice and sunlight For machine oil sponge the spot with turpentine, starting at the edge and working toward the cen ter. Milk may be removed by wash- CHEERFUL APPOINTMENTS That convey the spirit of ease and comfort, known only to the home modern mortuary equipment curteous, dependable and decorous service all these and more are provided by Plielps Funeral Home Day and Night Phone 1332 Cut Flowers for All Occasions Heppner, Oregon HE LET THE WORLD KNOW HIS SECRET A successful New York financier was interviewed.
