Oven Holders.

Most housekeepers rip the flour sack and hem it for a dish towel, but a quarter sack makes a very skimpy square of muslin. When my family became reduced to the quarter-sack size, writes a contributor to Another’s Magazine, I found a better use for the cloth. I ripped and pqlled threads to make a perfect square; then I stitched the cloth into an oblong strip which made a holder for the large roasting pans. A convenient supply of boiled and ironed, will save the dish towels from being used near the oven and justify the expense of good linen crash for towels.
