They are easy to use and easy to keep clean and new looking. When project leaders from the various home extension units meet next week to upholster a kitchen or dining room chair with plastic and foam rubber they will find that it is not very difficult to do. Training meetings are sched- uled as follows: Tuesday, Jan. 15, grade school auditorium in Scappoose; Thursday, Jan. 17, grade school in Vernonia; Friday, Jan. 25, the Oddfel- lows hall. Rainier. All meetings are to start at 10:30 a m. and close at 3:30 p.m. with a sack lunch at noon. For supplies needed for this meeting, project leaders may re fer to the list already sent them. Plastics are strong, light and have a general resistance to na tural enemies. There are two types of uphol stery plastics on the market, the nonsupported and the supported. The nonsupported is a solid sheet of plastic not suppoMed with a fabric backing. The sup ported is built from a cloth base which has had a plastic coating applied to one surface. Today many of these are supported with a knitted fabric back (so called “elastic base”) which makes them much easier to handle, The knitted fabric back permjts the plastic to stretch somewhat, both lengthwise and crosswise. There is a wide range of col ors, both smooth and rough tex tures, and a broad choice of de signs in all types of plastic ma terials. They are also available in light, medium and heavy weights. Persons who wish to learn more about plastics and their uses may attend extension unit meetings which will be announc- i ed late’- Entered as second class mail natter, August 4, 1922 at the post office in Vernonia.
