Numerous Garments Now of Stretch Yarn New Yor k (U.R) Until now, the term "stretch" has applied to the budget when a housewife went shopping. But this spring and summer, it also applies to what she wears. More and more women's cloth ing is being made in yarns that stretch to fit body contours but ' spring back for easy storage or packing of the garments. First appearing in men's socks, the yarns now are made into wo- . men's knee socks, stockings, briefs, girdles, gloves and bath ing suits. Sweaters are in the experimental stage. To insure better coffee, clean the pot once a week. Let the solution of baking soda and boil ing water stand in it for a few minutes, then rinse thoroughly.

CEIERAliQELEETtIC " Water Heaters Dr. West Writes of Current Conditions In Japan and Korea Dr. D. Kirkland West, on a "world "ministry to missions" tour with his wife, recently sent two letters to the Mail Tribune giving his impressions and ob servations of conditions in Ko rea and Japan. Dr. West is pastor of the Presbyterian church here and plans to return to it the first week in September. Excerpts from his correspond ences follow: In Seoul "In Seoul, Korea, which was 70 per cent destroyed and is only 30 miles from the 38th parallel between UN forces and Com munist armies, there is a frantic effort to rebuild and start life over again. They do not fear an other loss of the capital city to the Reds. I asked one young man, What about theTast, the war, and the trouble you had?' He re plied. 'If we thought of the past we would die to the future. We must forget it and go on.' He told me the Communists had killed his father but he could not afford the luxury of hating them. He had work 1o do build ing and working for a new Ko rea. . ' - .5 Prices are steadily rising and inflation has doubled prices within the last six months. Un less checked this is a serious threat to South Korea. 'How Korea feels about Com munism can be guaged by the fact that when they could do so, over 5,000,000 fled to South Korea. U.S. Aid Cited "One thing stands out every where, and that is the help of the U. S. Army in rebuilding hos pitals and schools and opening and keeping going orphanages for the thousands of children without parents, relatives, or homes of any kind. ' "The growth of the Christian church is another amazing facet of the rebirth of Korea. ' New churches are going up every where in SeouL In fact there are 180 Presbyterian churches alone. These churches are crowded every Sunday. The Methodists in Medford will like this story. On Sunday, after speaking to 1,500 'Presby terians, I went over to see how the Methodists were doing for the second service. It was rain ing cats and dogs. Just as I came in the gate, none other than the President of Korea came by in and he waved back, and then he and his .wife went on into the church service. He attends the Methodist services every Sun day." Letter From Japan ' . Dr. West's second letter deals T Willi tfUIHUl. "I have just had an interview with Mr. Kiyashi Togasaki, the owner of the Nippon Times (the leading English language news paper in Japan), "He is definitely not worried about Communism taking over Jaoan. : The Communists have lost all but one representative in the present Diet. He . had two major criticisms of the Christian church in Japan. I must add however that he speaks as a Christian church leader. The first criticism of the Japanese Christian church is that it is for the upper classes and not the masses. - He warns that the church must minister to the farmer, laborer, and fisherman if it is to really live in the heart of Japan. Second Criticism 'The second criticism is that Christianity in Japan is too clerical and not of ; by, and for the laity. He would get laymen into the church life and in posi tions of leadership. ; "I asked Dr. Hachiro Yuasa, President of the International Christian University, about his hopes and fears for the future. Here is his response: 'What the new Japan of tomorrow needs most in this atomic age is the truth which makes men and na tions free. It is our conviction that this truth is rooted in the word of God as revealed in and by Jesus Christ, :-' Sees Changes "In comparing Japan today with Japan I first visited in 1930, I see great changes. The ricksha pulled by a man is gone. Cheap, doll sized taxis are everywhere. Japan has gone completely mod ern. I. have seen only two per sons in the traditional Japanese dress. It is all western style. The automobile has taken over and woe to the pedestrian who. hesi tates he will be run down. A horn is more necessary than brakes and a callous disregard for life and limb the controlling emotion as one rides these dart ing taxis." The letters were dated July 7, both written from a Tokyo hotel. From there, the - Wests his Chrysler and I waved to him left the next day for Formosa.

Calif Brainerd photo) Travel Expert Gives Advice On Wardrobe and How to Pack By FAYE LOYD United Press Correspondent Dallas, Tex. (U.R) Women are the air 'travelers who most often hear that unwelcome in formation from the weigh-in clerk that there is a certain amount of excess baggage that will add substantially to the cost of the trip. ' The free baggage limit 40 pounds domestic, 44 pounds in ternational tourist and 66 pounds international first class is set by federal authorities for all air lines. The airline doesn't suffer if . the traveler goes over the limit it makes a profit and freely admits it. . Still, .it's a representative of an airline who comes to the aid of the woman who despairs of ever learning how to pack. . She is Mary Gordon, the handsome, black-haired travel adviser for Trans-World Air lines,, who can and does makes international trips with one suit case. Basic Color Her answer to the . packing problem can be summed up in two words: color coordination. By selecting a basic color and building the travel wardrobe around it, the .traveling woman can avoid having to carry along two or three bulky coats, as many as three pairs of street shoes of different color and matching handbags for each pair of shoes. . Her basic list includes one basic -color, all-purpose coat. Two . hats will do, if one is a beret or travel hat in the basic color, the other a collapsible, packable dress hat. Once a traveler has evolved her basic wardrobe, she need vary from it only to meet differ ent climatic conditions. Once assembled, the traveling wardrobe should be packed in three layers. Dress For Destination ' On the bottom of the suitcase put shoes, cosmetics, handbags and other bulky items; the next layer should be dresses and skirts; the third and top layer items like raincoats and sleeping apparel that will be needed first. The traveler should dress for her destination, rather than her departure, when there are cli mate changes involved. When it's possible, says Mary, she should investigate the possibility of buying some of the new, light weight luggage, since "most bags even when empty weigh; eight pounds." .' -ii iiiii: . iiii- i i mi- Illll No child looks like himself whea he feels sky er bored.
