Finding New Uses For Paper Towels

Modern p£pcr towels, familiar as a necessary accessory in the kitchen, are extending their service into other areas of today’s homes. The bathroom, garage, basement workshop, recreation room and laundry are among the new locations where paper towels are finding a welcome, it is said. | In the family bathroom, paper towels are useful —and acceptable —for those quick mop ups which don’t qualify as a full scale facewash or a major bath. In homes with small children, it’s a saving on laundry and extra work to have a paper towel dispenser at a height low enough for toddlers to reach. This is true only if you] train them to throw the towels, away in a handy waste receptacle after the drying operation. In guest bathrooms, dainty guest i finger towels are still “the thing" but even here paper towels are finding more and more acceptance. In the garage, paper towels are used for cleaning the windshield and other glass areas of the family car, They’re handy, too, for cleaning oil and exhaust stains • from the power mower, wiping off garden tools and dozens of other so called “wiping” chores. Be sure to provide a waste con-

tainer close to the towel dispenser, however. One of the chief attractions of paper towels to modern men-in-a-hurry is their easy, quick disposability. And, men being as they are, the used towels might be thrown anywhere unless a waste receptacle is provided. In the recreation room, keep a paper towel dispenser dose to the table tennis, billiard, darts or other play areas for, quick hand-dry-ing. If the "rec”’room boasts an adjoining powder room, equip this room exclusively with paper towels and tissues. In the laundry, you’ll want the towels handy when you apply hand lotion after the family wash—and during it. too, to dry your hands. Though paper towels are essentially a ultilitarian item in your home, consider the decor of the various rooms in which you might put up a roll. .. . ' Let Metal Weather w When you move into a new house, don’t paint any of the galvanized metal until it has “weathered” for at least six months. If it’s necessary to paint sooner, prepare the metal by washing it with household vinegar.

Tarn Panfry Into Office find Laundry The trend in recent years has been to consolidate the old-fash-ioned pantry with the kitchen, but many homemakers have transformed the pantry into a wellequigfitel • utility room and home office/ A small desk, telephone and work area provide the homemaker with her own private area for writing or talking. If the panfry is large anough. a laundry center can be included. Appliances can be located under the working surface, and concealed by sliding perforated doors.
