They need sunshine, humidity and a moderate temperature to bloom continuously over a long period of time. The porosity of their clay pots will give these flowering plants a chance to "breathe," keep roots cooler and insure against overwatering. Drifting Off Chicago - (UP!) - Researchers into sleeping habits report that most persons literally do "drift off" to sleep, very like ly several times before reach ing a so-called sound sleep. This drifting, reported by a bedding manufacturer, goes on through the night, chang- i ing from light to moderate to deep sleep and back again. I "Wavy," they call it. New Jiffy Patterns Explained If you think sewing is a project that's too time-consuming, get acquainted with the special new patterns now on the market. They're de signed especially for people like you . . . and they're also ideal for those who are just beginning to sew. Called "jiffy" patterns, they feature either two or three main pattern pieces . . . which means that seams are kept to a minimum. And sew ing steps have been simpli fied to make it easy and quick to whip up an outfit in no time at all! These special designs are offered in a wide variety of styles, including shifts, jack et dresses, sports separates, and even coats. In a season when simple silhouettes are enjoying such success, these patterns are a natural. Here are some other tips from the National Cotton council to remember when sewing lime is at a premium: Pick one-piece rather than two-piece dresses, and espe cially one-piece dresses with out waistlines. Select styles that are sleeveless or have kimono-type sleeves rather than those with set-in- sleeves. Stay away from cuffs or shirtsleeves. Designs with few details are also faster. Select patterns with a minimum of darts, col larlcss necklines, and softly gathered skirts rather than pleated ones. Uncomplicated construction is another important consid eration. For example, coats and jackets that are lined in the edge take less time to make than those with both facings and linings. And remember, that solids, tiny checks, and over-all prints need no matching or align ment. Because color is closely re lated to emotion, some psy chiatrists say that the colors you like may tell much about your personality.
