Evening Republican, Volume 17, Number 228, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 24 September 1913 — Avoid Tape Strings. [ARTICLE]

Avoid Tape Strings.

To avoid the tape strings in boy’s blouses, which are often untidy in appearance, put in the lower hem a mercerized elastic band, about half an inch wide and not quite so long as the boy’s waist measure. Fasten the elastic at each end; sew a button on one side and make a buttonhole on the other. This plan will be found much more satisfactory than the uae sf tape and neater.
