Detour Panama Canal locks 1,000 feet long, 110 feet wide and 70 feed deep cannot take giant tankers that draw 90 feet of water and are 200 feet wide and 1,300 feet long, National (Geographic points out. But though the big ships must make a 9,600-mile detour around Africa, they carry so much oil that it is cheaper than using smaller vessels able to sail through the canal.

PAUfc 3 - PLA1NDEALER - WEDNESDAY, MARCH 5,1960 How To Care For Wool R0B1RT GLICK hk Podiatrist -- Foot Specialist Cold winter weather and warm winter "woolies" go together. Wool and wool-blend sweaters, skirts, slacks, hats, gloves and thermal underwear are popular winter-wear items, says Kathi Heberer, Clothing Specialized Adviser for the McHenry County Extension Service. But because these gar­ ments are worn close to the body, they readily ac­ cumulate soil from body oil and perspiration And it is important to keep them clean to maintain both their appearance and their ability to keep you warm. Improperly cleaned wool and wool-blend clothing can lose its insulating ability. The labels on the garments give care instructions, Ms. Heberer says. Either hand or machine washing may be recommended for some wool and wool-blend garments; dry cleaning is suggested for others. If you launder a wool or wool-blend garment at home, keep the amount of agitation and handling to a minimum to avoid shrinkage and "felting," Ms. Heberer advises. Some garments are given a special finish to control these problems. If so, this information should be stated on the label or hang tag. When hand washing woolens, use warm, sudsy water. Gently squeeze suds through the fabric. Rinse well, using the same techniques. Don't wring or twist. Roll the item in a terry towel to absorb excels moisture; then block and dry away from direct heat. When machine washing, select the gentle or knit cycle and use a warm-water wash and cold rinse. Check your washing machine's use and care manual for recom­ mended washing and drying procedures. « If items can be machine dried, tumble until barely dry. * Care also must be taken when pressing wool gar­ ments, Ms. Heberer adds. Excessive heat can damage wool fibers. Use a press cloth and low heat or a steam iron set properly for wool. If garments such as jackets or dresses will be hung, use shaped wooden hangers. Hang pants by their cuffs or leg hems and skirts by waistbands. Heavy, bulky garments are better folded and stored on shelves or in drawers. • « * * Courtesy is a virtue that seems to be on the wane. * * * * There's little honesty left in conversations these days.
