Thnreday. Fehrnarr lft. lflfrl'k i ^Thfi McHfeKaYPlAIOTJEALrt 1 smart-cuts for women I b| Maggb Lovewdl I Wnnt new drapes, slipcovers, bedspread--make them yourself! But remember WHEN F I G U R I N G , HOW M A N Y YARDS TO BUY: t--if you decide on print draw drapes, get an extra length for matching up the design. --it takes twice the length around bottom of chair or sofa for ruffling..3 times the length for pleated flounce. - decide how long you want your bedspread, then add 12" for tucking underneath pillows. Don't throw away THOSE Qim NYLONS, girls! Match them up by putting in a kettle of boiling water with a spoonful of salt. Boil a few minutes, and--like magic--they'll all be the same color (won't hurt hose either)! Need some info on WHAT'S IN A GOOD PILLOW? The most luxurious and softest filling is goose down. But most people want something firmer, so feathers are blended with down--the more feathers, the firmer the pillow. Goose and duck feathers are more Resilient and longer-lasting than turkey or chicken feathers. Synthetic fillings, like Da^ cron, should lie plump, lumpfree, and resiljent. Filling should be in one piece, rolled to fit casing. Foam rubber is lightweight and resilient.. .best are in one piece, rather than chopped latex. Doesn't it just make you furious when you rip a sweater --or any kind of knit? It's easy to repair with a hair brush--or other type of "bristler." Just put brush under torn area... bristles hold sweater and keep it from stretching while you mend. You can lick that miserable feeling of trying to SLEEP WITH BRUSH CURLERS in your hair by using a contour pillow--the kind designed for cars and chairs. It sort of curves around your neck, leaving your hair free and off the bedpillow. Also helps keep your pretty new bouffant hairdo from getting mussed. Pleasant dreams all! If you're not planning on using dairy-made SOUR CREAM for several days, turn container upside down on your refrigerator shefl.. This keeps out air and assures the retention of cream's flavor and smooth tex- , ture. " "Watch for Maggie every week! Band Presents Program 4^ Isn't it great to get compliments on clothes you made yourself? And you'll get a really good fit much easier if you know how to TAKE YOUR MEASUREMENTS. Start by wearing lightweight dress or slip with foundation garments you normally wear (upless it's to be worn over special foundation, such as a strapless.). Mark hems wearing right height heels. BUST -- measure around fullest part, holding tape firmly, nottightly, WAST -- around where skirt waist band is worn, comfortably tight. HIPS -- around largest part of figure, no matter how far from waistline. WAIST LENGTH -- collarbone to lower edge of waist where belt rests. SKIRT LENGTH -- waist to fashionable point on leg. SLEEVE LENGTH -- armpit to wrist along underarm. If Old Man Winter is getting to your skin, you need SPECIAL BEAUTY - BATH CARE. During Bath - - bubbles or bath salts soften water, aid soap cleansing action. Bath oils lightly coat skin to deter drying. After Bath -- use body lotion on exposed areas and rough spots. Talcum or bath powder helps prevent chapping. You'll even feel prettier! CLEAN SUEDE SHOES by wiping with cloth that has been dipped in vinegar. Restore nap with wire brush or sandpaper, stroking gently. Nothing's as infuriating as STUCK ZIPPERS -- but these precautions will make life "zippier!" Always close zipper before washing or ironing. Apply paraffin or similar product to teeth of metal zipper that doesn't work smoothly. When dress or threads get caught in teeth, work gently to avoid damaging fabric or zipper. Always replace zipper with broken or bent teeth. Repair that BURNED SPOT IN THE RUG caused by careless smoking. Clip small parts from another part of rug with razor blade (take from edge that won't show, where color is the same). Rub any good vanishing glue into spot and press rug clippings down. Voila! Spot can't even be seen! HAVING MEAT LOAF for supper? It's a tastier treat if you add a little chopped green pepper, chili sauce, celery seed, chopped onion, or crumbled bay leaves to the meat.

Roger Reichert of Crystal Lake has accepted, the chairmanship of this vital informational program for the third year. _ Many factors triggered the desire to step up planning, Reichert said this week. Over-riding reason perhaps is the fact,, that persons close to the battle against cancer know that a great many people needlessly die from the disease. That fact perhaps is difficult for many people to understand, but the message the American Cancer society strives to pound home is that one out of two persons who have cancer could be saved. "If people would follow warnings given by the seven danger signals, they would make cure of more cases possible," Reichert noted. "One of the main objectives of the Cancer Crusade during Cancer Control Month is to distribute information door-todoor, through * newspapers, radio and television, and other means." The other purpose of course is to invite people to contribute to this all-out battle against the disease which causes one out of six deaths in the United States today.
