Mrs. Aldrich reminded her listeners of the tremendous in fluence they wield as teachers and said they must be watchful of the ideas they inculcate in the youth of the land.

(U.R) If you have trouble threading a needle, you might try the new monocord nylon thread which is sold in all colors at most stores. Miss Florence Rami, extension specialist in clothing at Mich igan State university, says this is a permanently bonded thread which doesn't ravel or untwist and is easy to thread. Miss Rann found monocord nylon thread much easier to use than the regular nylon thread since it doesn't seem to have as much static electricity as the other synthetic threads. Another feature of this particular thread is the fact that it is translucent and picks up the color of the fabric you are using. Because of the similarity in elasticity and strength. Miss Rann says use a synthetic thread on a synthetic fabric. For ex ample, use nylon thread for a nylon fabric. Miss Rann says never use a synthetic sewing thread on cot ton or any fabric which will be ironed later with a rather high temperature. She says synthetic fibers are very sensitive to heat and will melt.
