Lane, spec ialist in clothing and textiles at Ore gon State college. When plenty of materials were available to get new garments when ever one’s whim dictated, or pocket- book permitted, clothing conservation methods were not so important, but all that is changed now, she says. Here are some of her suggestions, some new and some old, for makng clothing last and retain its good looks. Rayon hose now on the market need special washing care because rayon becomes weak when wet. Lay these on a towel to dry and never put them on until thoroughly dry. As this may take longer than just over- night, extra pairs to change to are an economy. Stockings of any kind last longer when put on the right way, which means rolling them from top to toe before putting them on. Shoes will last longer if worn only for occasions for which each pair is suited, which means sturdy shoes for work and play, and dressy shoes only for dressy occasions. Shoe trees are more than ever needed now, while quick repair means longer life. Wool clothes are far too valuable to be used as moth feed. If not al ready stored with moth-protecting flakes or other materials, it is best to get them out in the sunshine every so often and give them a good brush ing. Moths particularly like soiled wool and are sure Ho pick out a grease spot or soiled collar if possi ble. Thin scarves worn around the neck are not as necessary for warmth as they are to save a coat from col lar smudge. Sweaters are best put away fold ed in a drawer rather than on hang ers. Carelessness in pulling them on and overloading of pockets pulls them out of shape. Gentle washing in luke- warm water and mild soap, with thorough rinsing, are essential.
