Pledge amounts can be as low as 5 cents per hour, but the average seems to be closer to $1. People pledge what they can and I can turn in one large amount."

In-Jean-Eous" Tips For Pants Shoppers Jeans have become a way <rf life for the teen set, as well as children and many adults. While denim ieans are still very popular, many manufactucers are making , jean-cut slacks in a variety j of other fabrics, including l corduroys, chambray-like ^ materials, knits and stretch wovens. According to Mariorie Sohn, University of Illinois r/ Extension clothing and textile specialist, firmly woven and durable fabrics are the best choice for long- wearing ieans, while those made of loosely woven and knit fabrics may be easily snagged. Ms. Sohn notes that the price of jeans varies a great deal, and often not because of the fabric used but the way the jeans are cut and sewn or the designer name on the back pocket. The wear and fit of more expensive jeans may be no better than those available for half the price. "If you're looking at jeans that co6t quite a bit less than mo6t, though, be careful. They may be skimpily cut and poorly stitched, and you'll soon be out shopping for another pair," she says. She recommends shoppers check for three signs of good construction no matter what price range of jeans they're considering: -double rows of close stitches on seams, fly and pockets -a heavy-duty zipper -bar tacks or metal rivets at points of strain, such as pocket corners, the bottom of the fly opening and at the top and bottom of belt loops. Ms. Sohn notes that although some girls prefer the cut of boys' jeans, girls' waist-hip proportions differ fromboysV "Girls should be sure they try on arty male- cut jeans before buying them or they may end up augmenting their brother's rather than their own wardrobes" she says. Many jean-makers are rhinestones and other trims. Ms. Sohn notes that these details can add considerably to the price of the garments and also can make jeans less durable. Once you select a pair of jeans, Ms. Sohn recommends you read tags and care labels to And out the best way to care for your purchase. "Remember that some denim jeans are designed to fade so you'll want to keep that in mind when laundering them," she says. "Others are guaranteed not to fade. Although there are no labeling requirements concerning fading, tags may indicate what you can expect." She says that denim jeans labeled "dyed with indigo" often will fade while those that contain synthetic fibers are less apt to do so because of the dyes used with them. Ms. Sohn notes that 100 percent cotton denim jeans may be softer than others but they also may shrink more. "Be sure to check the label for shrinkage information. You may have to buy jeans a size or two larger than you usually wear to allow for shrinkage," she sdavs. "Jeans that are labeled "pre-washed" usually don't shrink much, and those that are "sanforized" feel soft and pliable and afe guaranteed not to shrink more than one percent when properly laundered."
