Before laundering, treat any soiled spots with a soapy brush, thei. immeree in plenty of suds and lukewarm water. Rinse well, and roll briefly in a turkish towel. Never wring nylon--it wrinkles if you do. Unroll your girdle immediately, hang it up by the garters, and let it drip dry, away from direct heat. Smooth out the creases with your fingers, during drying. Treat nylon bras the same. way.

"to be booed, hissed and cursed by 33,ON American citizens." Bat in place of eurliag up or growing sour, Cobb stepped out that day and got four hits, stole two or three bases, scored several runs and broke up the ball game.

Private Baths Found To Be 5,000 Years Old The idea of a separate room for bathing purposes is not an invention of American culture. In fact, it is This seems to be the best answer. The best reply to a boo or a vocal cataclysm of hate and derision is to show up the maudlin mob of goat-getters. You rarely hear them booing a fellow who is making good.

S. taxpayers footed the bill for 1,908,629.519 pieces of free mail -^thousands of tons of forms, pamphlets, circulars and supplies--sent out by government departments and establishments free of postage under the "penalty privilege" during the year ended June 30, 1945. Although the "penalty mail law," effective July 1, 1944, forced all departments sod agencies to account for all matter bearing the penalty indicia and pay into the treasury the cost of handling such matters, 5,745,873 more pounds of free mail were handled than in the fiscal year 1944. The number of pieces decreased by 288,964,796. Servicemen mailed 1,100,000,000 pieces of free first-class mail during 1945, which would have cost $33,000,000 in postage at the rate of three cents apiece. In spite of the tremendous volume of free mail, post office revenues were the highest in history, amounting to $1,314,- 340,132, Gregg points out. The mail handled by the post office during the 1945 fiscal year weighed 3,700,000 tons and totaled 37,900,000,000 separate pieces. Rural; mail carriers traveled a distance equal to three round trips to the moon every day. •> Spray Early Spraying to protoet your -garden should begin before insfrt nr fungus damage is apparent. > C. tubs, not unlike those in use today, but made of bronze, were excavate -ed in a Roman villa near Pompeii in 1894, after reposing in volcanic ash and debris since 79* *A. D. Archeologists from the Oriental institute of the University of Chicago uncovered a bathroom in the palace of ancient Ashnunnak in Babylonia, now Iraq, built 5,000 years ago. There is no doubt about the date, either, for the Babylonian kings had the tidy custom of stamping the bricks with their names. The bath in the home of a wealthy Roman usually occupied a whole room with a big sunken tub. The water was heated by fire under the floor. In 1399, Henry IV of England founded a new military order called The Order of the Bath. It had ever been the custom to reward faithful subjects by dubbing them knight before or after battle by the simple rite of striking the kneeling soldier with the flat of the sword, saying "Rise, Sir Knight." But Henry had an idea which many believe was inspired for the express purpose of persuading his nobles to present themselves as socially acceptable for the ceremony, including a complete immersion in a tub. While bathing, the favored subject was instructed in the laws of chivalry. At the conclusion of the ceremony, water was poured on his left shoulder in the sign of the cross. And thus knighthood was conferred* Dltaa In cities over a million population, each resident takes abas* than 420 rides a year en his h>cal transit systems. series years ago when he came to bat against Jack Root in Chicago.

The Babe applied even viler epithets, one against* 45,000, as he pointed to the center field flag pole. .That was the most famous home run Babe ever hit in his collection of more than 700. "AD I know about it," the Babe told me later, "is that hall was kinder egg-shaped oi after they found it.' Problem of 1947 We have been talking recently with a number of managers not club owners or ball players, about the 1947 baseball season. One of the smartest told me this<-with the amazing increase in attendance, with the aftermath of the Mexican league and the union arrival, ball players for 1947 are going to demand big pay increases. "A good many of these deserve such increases," the manager said. Paint Badiators Minting of radiators to match wall or woodwork not only makes an attractive room, but also adds to radiation of heat if the color is light, according to the bureau of standards. To clean radiators for painting, use turpentine, followed by steel wool to remove dust or flakes of stubborn old paint.
