Select Waih-n-Wear Clothes for Children Carefully if you choose to buy them. One brand may launder satisfactorily. Another may turn dirty yellow or fall apart. This may happen to dress or sport shirts, blouses, work or play clothes, or other wash-n-wcar fabrics and gar ments, white or colored, normally .bleached for stain removal and reten tion of original whiteness. r According to American Institute of Laundering, inferior wash-n-wear garments may be made with certain resin finishes that absorb chlorine from hypochlorite bleach, commonly used. This can't rinse out and heat from ironing creates an acid which yellows or destroys the fabric. If you buy wash-n-wear or other wash able, be sure they carry the CERTIFIED WASHABLE SEAL of American Institute of Laundering. It certifies we can launder them to perfection.
