It takes much less energy, This one change alone can save much energy, according to Miss Mary Beth Minden, Oregon State col lege extension home manage ment specialist. Most women don't sit down to iron because their equipment is not built right, she says. Now many boards are adjustable to sitting or standing height. Wide boards can be energy saving, too, she says. With a larger ironing surface, garments don't need to be rearranged as often while they are being ironed. A wide board can be put on top of a regular ironing board, the home management specialist says. A good kind is half-inch plywood cut twenty-two by forty eight inches. A smaller wide board of ply wood twenty-two by forty inches can be put on a card table. This is a comfortable height for many women, Miss Minden says. County home extension agents can give information on how to make a steam barrier, pad and detachable cover for the board. - PETTICOAT PACKER New York (U.P.)

It is sponsored by General Petroleum Corporation to demonstrate the mileage and performance built into today's high horsepower automobiles. The 1323-mile eoun abaakad through th Indian country of the great Southwest. Temperatures soared as the cars spun through the desert near Sal ton Sea, cooled to near freezing crossing the Continental Divide at the 9382-foot level. The sixth annual Mobflgac Economy Ran which finished Wednesday at the foot of Pike's Peak, after covering 1323 tortuous miles from Los Angeles in 2VS days, proved one thing for sure: when American car manufacturers added horsepower, they didn't sacrifice mileage. The 21 American ears, which were equipped with automatic transmission and certified absolutely stock by American Automobile Association, averaged an im pressive 21.5 miles per gallon. This was achieved even though the average horse power increase of 1955 over 1934 models was 17.6 per cent an average increase of 26.7 horsepower. The route chosen by AAA represented every road condition a motorist would normally experience in a year. Each con testant ran at marimnm legal speed to meet time requirements. He adhered to normal driving rules and traffic condi tions; to see that this was accomplished, he had at his side an official AAA observer. Each car, competing against others in its price class, was in top condition-properly fueled with Mobilf as and lubricated with MobiloiL Again, the Mobilgas Economy Run proves the mileage performance possible when good cars, good drivers, and good petroleum products work together. A reg ular stop at the Flying Red Horse sign for Mobilgas helps you to obtain "par" mile age on any course you run.
