Sweaters Made of Synthetic Fibre Launckr Easily, Keep Their Shape By EEANOR ROSS The sweatr knitted of man- made "miraee" fiber has ceased to be a mircle. It's now taen for granted, hav- ing gained r»markably quick ac- ceptance, ar is showing up in every type o'sweater imaginable, The simplet classic cardigan or the elaboratey trimmed and glam- orized style | apt to be of a syn- thetic fiber ¢ a blend, as soft as one could ag for, and as color- ful as a floer garden. WORN WITI SUITS There are aarming nylon sweat- ers. One of he newer fabrics, in butter yelloy or sky blue or a loft lavende! hue, short-sleeved with a scoopieck, makes a ares arment witbut any trim at all. uch soft kits make wonderful sweater-blougs under suits, or with separate skis. Any woman would buy these hits for beauty and pricé alone, 'ven if there were no other inducezent. But, happy, there is. The *"mirgle'"' fibers launder easily, dry aickly and best of all, they never teed any help in re- taining thei original shape and measuremerns. No wonder they're so popular! CHECK TH! LABEL . Be sure t( take a close look at the sweaters label when buying, to see wheter it is all synthetic yearn, or whether it is mixed with wool, and if so, what percentage of each it contains. If the amount of wool is equal to or greater than the amount of nylon or other syn- thetic fiber, the sweater should be sudsed in lukewarm water, and handled as carefully as if it were all wool. One hundred per cent synthetic fibers can be successfully sudsed in hotter water. Just blot out as much moisture as possible after rinsing, to hasten drying, even though they dry naturally in a surprisingly short time. Smooth and shape with your hands and lay them flat to dry. Or they may be hung over the shower rod or over the side of the tub to dry since théy don't readily sag or stretch. A JEWELLED SWEATER If it's a jewelled "miracle" sweater you're sudsing, never rub the encrusted areas against the plain parts. Too much friction does knitwear no good, and anyway, ing through the suds is necessary if the sweater is washed as often as it should be. hether your sweater is of finest cashmere or the newest synthetic fiber, remember it's soil that causes wear, not frequent wash- ings. What's kept clean, lasts lon- ger and always looks nice. nothing brisker than just squeez-: Indoor Gardening Popular Hobby Many flowers that normally bloom in the spring will be blos- soming pre-maturely this winter on window sills across the country. These indoor flower beds will be the result of "forcing" by an in- creasing number of gardeners who start puttering around with bulbs and flower pots just when the back- yard gardener is putting away her tools. Not all of these indoor garden- ers have green thumbs. Some will be potting their first bulb this fall. Those who are trying their luck at indoor gardening for the first time | will avoid disappointment by select. ing such near fool-proof varieties as Paper White Narcissi and Rom- an Hyacinths. Both can be forced into bloom by Christmas if plant- ed early enough. Single and double tulips are also not too difficult for the beginner to grow indoors. For the more experienced who ' |want their window sills to make ' |lup in variety for what they lack in space, there are fiery-red Amaryllis, gleaming Calla Lilies, Freesias, Gloxinias, Iris Reticulata, Oxalis and daffodils of all kinds in- cluding a pink daffodil. Indoor plants require light, : warmth, moisture and plant nu- trients. Most bulbs can be planted : lin earthenware pots using good : Vegetable soil that has been mixed with a fertilizer in proportions of one teaspoon to 'an eight-inch pot. i |The tips of the bulbs should show slightly above the soil level which |is kept one inch below the rim of the pot to allow for watering. After planting bulbs are usually watered thoroughly and stored in a cool, dark place to develop roots. This can be anywhere from a base- ment cold storage to a dark, airy : [cupboard providing the tempera- ture is well above freezing but not above 60 to 65 degrees. Generally speaking, when the |shoots are well above the pots it is time to bring them out into the light gradually. Growth made while in the dark is yellowish and should be dark green before the pots are placed in direct sunlight. Remov- : |ing the bubs from the dark too soon and neglecting to water them while they are in dark storage are the two most common causes of failure. Tulips, hyacinths and narcissi should not be brought into the light before the flower buds are above the shoulder of the bulbs. As the 'longer-lasting plants use up nu- trients from the soil, these can be replaced by stirring about half a teaspoon of fertilizer into the top soil every three weeks or so. When the flower plants are gracing the window sill, they should be turned ROUX HAIR BLEACHES Sf shades of ROUX oil bleaches--Gold, Drab, and Red --to match your needs.

CLEVELAND MYERS There may be so many reasons why the baby or very young child often cries violently, or long at a stretch, that one can't generalize on the matter safely. ? If the reason is not apparent, the youngster should be checked by the physician. Also, the parent should look into her own degree of peace of mind and serenity, and the family 'atmosphere. SPANKING NOT THE CURE Of one thing I'm fully sure, spanking is not the cure for the baby's crying. And when the tot of two or three cries following a spanking, it doesn't seem to be good sense to command him .then not to cry. If you spanked him wisely, you meant to .give him pain, at which he usually cries. Whether the youngster from two to five cries long and hard at the slightest accidental bump will de- pend largely on how you have acted from the time he first had such experiences. If you have al- ways shown great fear and anxi- ety when he has been hurt a bit, grabbed him up excitedly and be- irayed your fears in your voice and movements, you helped him suppose he was badly hurt when he wasn't. You caused him to be ready to cry long and violently. GETS UP SMIL : But if you have always met his little accidental hurts with calm- ness, even indifference, letting him pick himself up when he has been able to, he may grow so courageous by the time he is four How to Deal Successfully With a Child Who Fears Pain or five over little bumps and scratches as to get up smiling, even with blood seeping from his hands and knees. He may co-op- erate courageously during first aid. He may evince no fear of mind scene, may be restrained toward th. dentist's chair, such as I have seen happen with a number of chil- dren. My bulletin, "The Young Child Who Cries Excessively," may be had by sending a self-addressed stamped envelope to me in care of this paper. Dealt with so successfully for the first several years of life, a child who, for some reason, later acquires some fears of pain, as in first aid, and dry cry or create a scene, may .be restarined toward courage more easily because of the good earlier experiences. FEARS FIRST AID Suppose your child at three or four must have some immediate fir : aid and he kicks and screams, shouting "No!" , The best procedure may be to have a capable assistant, and for one of you to hold the child still until the ordeal is over. In most cases, spanking him, or threaten- ing to do so, will hardly force his compliance. If he is seven, nine or ten, how- ever, you and an assistant to- gether might not be able to hold him by force. Besides, he's old enough then, so that if he refuses to respond to reason, he can profit from some other means of force that should cause him to comply. every few days to prevent the stalks from bending toward the light. There are a number of bulbs which can be planted periodically throughout the fall and winter months to keep the 'garden' in full bloom. With such a riot of color at the window all during the dark months, Spring will never seem far behind. CURLY TOP Now there's a shampoo especial- ly to protect your permanent and preserve your tint.

It is not a period, however, in which to engage in financial dealings or to start new projects. In all mat- ters, adopt a conservative policy and avoid aggressiveness in ac- tions. Health, romance and family gath- erings are under beneficent aspect during the evening hours, with hob- bies and cultural interests also favored. Plans may be made at this time foy any trip you have in mind for the future. FOR THE BIRTHDAY If tomorrow isi your birthday, you may anticipate a year of change, new business and roman- tic ventures and, quite possibly, a change in environment. It would be well to remember, however, that in any matter of major consequence changes should not be made with- out cautious consideration. Do noth- ing under compulsion or duress. If you are engaged in artistic or theatrical pursuits, the year should be one of spectacular achievement since the imaginative and the ori- ginal are especially favored. You may experienc. periods of anxiety, but it would be well for you to re- alize that most worries are over things that never happen. Learn to relax more.

Before the lad was four he painted a portrait of his father, William Sr., sunglasses and all, with arms sprouting from the head. Neither the boy, now 11, nor his mother remember the painting in detail. But they agree that it scared everybody who came into the house. When ¥illiam was six a friend of the family, Harry Kelman, Ot- tawa ..list now living in Paris, gave him oils and advice. It paid off. Last February, 24 of William's paintings were hung in a one-man show at the: Canadian Repertory Theatre. Five were sold. Top price was $5. William is a big lad with a self- confident way of speaking. i How does he go about his paint- g? "Well, T just paint things as I See them," he says.
