PALL STP. 7, 1929 Le For Anything WASH DAY SUGGESTIONS Dr. F. H. Rhodes, professor of in- dustrial and chemical engineering, has found that soap and water can actually wash dirt back into clothes if the washing is continued beyond a few minutes, This was proved at a recent test at Cornell University, which was directed by Dr. Rhodes, This discovery carries no implica- tion that, for countless ages, wo- men-folk have been wasting time in overwashing, for the tests were applied to a product of the machine age, the washing machine, The dis- , covery was a bi-product of the main purpose, whith was to determine what soaps posses the greatest cleansing properties, : Dr. Rhodes found that olive oil soaps, which include pure castiles, were the best cleansers, Standard types of soap flakes ranged a close second. Dr, Rhodes found supris- ingly little difference inthe clean- sing properties 'of the pure soaps, The period of time of the great- est cleansing varied with the type of machine and the size of the batch of clothes, but, as a rule, it was from seven and one-half to fifteen minutes. After that the materials in the wash tended to absorb a grey hue from dirt washing back into them. So when you have become used to the type of washing ma- chine which you are using you should ascertain the amount of time it takes to make the clothes pure white, This would also save the wear and tear on the clothes, which must result from the heavy dril- ling, which they receive in the ma- chine, In bluing clothes we so often get too much bluing in the water when The Women's * * * the Homemaker and the Housekeeper Corner of Interest to we use an open mouthed bottle, It will be found convenient to put a sprinkler top on the bluing bottle in order to regulate the amount to g0 in the water for the laundry, There are many ways of prevent- ing the clothes from freezing when they are hung on the line in cold weather, A few of them are as fol- lows:add a handful or more of salt to the last rinsing water and the clothes will not freeze, To prevent clothes from freezing to the clothes line go over the line with a damp cloth sprinkled with equal parts of baking soda and salt, Boil clothespin in salted water (one tablespoonful salt to one quart of water) and the clothes will not cling to the line, Warming the clothes pins in the oven before hanging out the clothes is a furth- er précaution against freezing, also against their splitting, Add one teaspoonful of borax to the starch and this will not be so apt to freeze out of the clothes, So often it is impossible' to wear gloves when hanging out the cloth es and then the hands hecome very chapped, If they are wet with vine- gar and dried well before hanging out the clothes they will not chap A little cornstarch rubbed on the hand will also help. When washing natural chamois gloves they are apt to lose their color when washed in soapy water, To avoid this boil some orange peel in: the soap flakes before using; strain and allow to cool to the right temperature, Hot water shrinks and hardens chamois leather, After washing rinse in very soapy water and a few drops of olive ofl added TH make the gloves soft and plia- e, . FORMER MANITOBA PREMIER MARRIED Los Angeles, Calif,, Feb, 7.--8ir Rodmond P. Roblin, former prem- fer of Manitoba, and Ethel M, Leg- gett, Los Angeles were married at high noon yesterday at the Wil-| shire Congregational Chur:h, Over 100 guests, many of whom were | from Canada, attended thc cere- | monies performed by R:v. J. L. Gordon, life-long friend of the groom, assisted by Rev. Thomas! Harper, pastor of the * hionable' | church, Miss Leggett wa fermerly | a public accountant here, Following the ceremony the couple and guests held a wedding breakfast at a ho- | tel. No definite plans were announzed ! by the couple but it was expected that they would remain here until! Spring, leaving then on a voyage! to Hawaii and returning to Sir Rod- | mond's home in Winn'peg. ol. H. 8, Mullins, a former member of the Canadian Parlia- ment and an old friend of Sir Rod- mond, attended th: groom. Mrs, Edith Murray, sister of the bride, formerly of Regina, but now a resi- dent in Hollywood Calif., was the matron of honor. The wedding was an extremely simple aflir. Just the usage in the disbpan is 'mot washing enough for the dish- cloth. It should be washed in clean hot suds, rinsed in clear water and dried out of doors veery few days so that it will keep sweet and really clean. In the cold weather it makes it sweeter if it is allowed to freeze. COTORA HEALS LARGE PIMPLES Caused Itching Burning, Also Disfigurement, Beauty of Girls Was Cause of Their Arrest New York, Feb, 7. -- Because they are too pretty Sally Williams and Marie Wilgon are in jail, De- tectives Barry, Kinken and Burns of the Pickpocket Squad, were hunting for pickpockets who have opened and looted the purses of do- | zens of women as they left thea- tres recently, Being gentlemen with an eye for the artistic, Barry, Finken and Burns looked hard at Brunette Sally and Blonde Marie in a theatre lobby. They looked harder when they saw the young women in another lobby a few moments later, And when they saw them in the lobby of the Royale Theatre they arrested them just as Marie was said to have taken $104 from the purse of Mrs, W, A, Barstow, of Orange, N.J., while Sally jostled her, the detectives swore. Sally sald she was 24, a dress model and lived in the Bronx. Marie said she was 28, a hosuewife. Wearing expensive fur coats, with their hands bedecked with dia- monds, they came baughtily into court, where Marie was held in $8,- 500 bail end Sally in $3,500 on 2 charges each, And then, still haughty and pret- ty, they went back to jail with sneers at Detectives Barry, Kinken and Burns, B.

WEATHER MADE AT THE SOUTH POLE Scientist Explains the Rea- son For Making Expedi- tions to Antarctic Toronto, Feb. 7.--Why do scien- tists endure hardship and face death in the wastes of Antarctica? For one reason, because a large share of the world's weather is made at the south pole and obser- vation stations in the Antarctic can foretell the weather of the Argen- tine three and a half years in ad- vance, J. R. Gibbs told the Toron- to branch of the Royal Astronomi- cal Society of Canada recently.
