SAFETY TREATMENT FOR HALLOWEEN COSTUMES GIVEN Halloween costumes can turn into fire hazards unless they are treated with a fireretarding solution. The treatment can be applied at home and for a few pennies. To prepare the solution, O. L Hogsett, University of Illinois safety specialist, suggests mixing seven ounces of borax and three ounces of boric acid with two quarts of water. The regular laundry borax is satisfactory. If the grocer does not stock boric acid, it can be pur* chased at the drug store. Prepare enough solution to saturate the costumes thoroughly. Dip cloth costumes into the solution and let them drip dry. Or apply the solution with a spray. This fire-retardant agent is temporary and does not harm cloth. Regular laundry procedures will remove it from sheets, pillow cases, towels and other washable materials. Crepe paper costumes should be treated unless the paper was made fire-resistant before it reached retail markets. The label will list the treatment. Place the costume on a hanger where it can hang free. Apply the solution with a spray, and let the costume dry thoroughly before it is worn. Salt crystals will form and add glitter to the costume. The solution tends to toughen the paper as it dries, making it more durable.
