NURSERY & KINDERGARTEN OPENS JUNE 1 Insured CHILD CARE RATES BY DAY, WEEK or MONTH Make Arrangements Now Transportation Available" Kindergarten Class Starts Sept. 6 For Information Call 3-3034 Keeping a dark summer cotton dress free from lint is easier if it's washed alone or with other dark, colorfast items. To prevent starch from streaking cottons, make sure the starch is well mix ed, free from lumps and is dark ened a little with bluing. It's best to iron dark cotton on the wrong side and use a pressing cloth for touchups on the right side. To get best results in making fresh fruit cobblers, have the fruit mixture piping hot before adding the biscuit topping. For a shortcut, use ready-to-bake biscuit topping.
