OTPOlR Wednesday wasn't one of our "day off" the day when we work Harder at home than we would at the office, and this time it really was a "day off." Wednesday is our day to clean the house and wash and Iron and work in the garden and polish shoes and sew on buttons and adjust hems and maybe catch up on our reading. We got through breakfast all o.k., although half asleep as usual, and then wrote a couple of duty letters before starting the laundry. If we let the letters go until the end of the day. they never get written. Assembling all the mounds of soiled clothing in the laundry room, we discovered that one of the light bulbs was burned out. So we found a new one, got a stool and chanced it. While the washing machine swished, we de cided to sweep the leaves and Tuesday s wind had brought nrettv vcllow leaves from the Broom in hand, we started around the house and walk ed right into a spider web with one of those absolutely hnoe Brevish yellow yard spiders in it. It clu..g momeCL- tarily in our hair. Now, we don't mind snakes and mice don't scare us in the slightest. But a spider reduces us to quivering jelly and a big one, smack in the face, is enough to make our knees shake for the next hour. With the spider disposed of, we swept the porch and walk and went back to the laundry room. For a time all went well, and the wash was almost done. Pappy had straightened the tall clothesline pole on Sunday,' and we had to get up on the stand to reach the line. We hung the clothes, :jll white and fresh smelling and finally began to feel some what relaxed. The day wasn't such a bad one, after all. We picked up the last piece, and pinned it on the line. Before we could back off the stand there was an ominous cracking, the line sagged and in another second or two the pole went down across the driveway with loud cracking noises. And there, In the gravel and dirt of the driveway, lay all our nice clean, white, wet, washing. You see? It really wasn't one of our goods days. O.S.

We asked a group of youne moth- 1 ers ti,at question. Their an- swer . , . you guessed it! Ana if you are one of the many married women holding down a Job outside your home, you probably feel the same way. Researchers tell us it is pos sible for most women to cut housework time by one-fourlh and sometimes as much as onc- lialf. The trick, of course, is to know and use short cuts. Why not start to shortcut a job you don't like and find a way to clip a few minutes each day? The most unpopular jobs, according to a recent survey, are ironing, oven cleaning, do ing dishes, waxing floors, and cleaning the refrigerator and freezer. Slice some time from your ironing. How much time you can save will depend on how you do it now. Ask yourself these three questions. Can any part be left out? For instance, skip sprinkling by taking clothes from line or dryer while still damp. Are you supplies handy? Get everything you need to gether before you start - and store them together, too. Would another piece of equipment speed the job? A padded wide board to top your regular board helps you whiz through big table cloths and other flat items. Use a cart for stacking finished ironing and wheel it around to put away the clothes. Oven cleaning is a breeze if you apply these same three questions. What to leave out? Who wouldn't like to leave out the hard scrubbing? You can if you wipe out the oven after each use, before the grease gets baked on. Leave the door ajar after roasting or broiling so the oven will cool quickly. The open door will also re mind you that there is one more chore lo do when you're cleaning up. What about supplies? Keep a chemical cleaner handy for those times when you're likely to neglect the oven. Or you may spray ammonia on the oven lining, then wash off later. There's also a new chemical which you can spray on the clean oven to give a slick finish which shuns grease. Can you save time with a different tool? Try a dishmop with a handle about a foot long for cleaning hard-to-gct- BOTANICAL I WATER LILY TULIP BULBS 29c u. 10r269 gtcte 4. " , at parts. Besides being con venicnt, you'll also save your self a possible kink in the shoulder. Try these questions on some morc jobs and see how many extra hours you can pick up in a week's time. More ideas for saving lime can be found In the OSU bul letin "Work Smarter - Not Harder." For a free copy, write to me at Oregon Slate university, Corvallis. Do you find mysterious holes in clothes after launder ing? This problem often comes to us through the county Ex tension Service offices. We've checked with textile experts and chemists and find that in almost every case the damage could be traced to use of bleach sometimes as long as six weeks before-hand. Liquid chlorine bleach poured from the bottle onto clothes "eats" the fabric. Bleach should al ways be diluted first. Some other causes of damage are permanent wave solution and chemical cleaners. The reason it's all so mysterious is be cause the damage may not show us until after several washings. Smart homcmakcrs tell us: To "iron" puff sleeves on little girls' dresses, try this slick trick. Use the bulb of a lamp (turned on, of course), slip the little sleeve over it and work around it with your hand until fabric is smooth. It works like a charm and there are no creases. You should press the dress first with an iron, except the sleeves.
