They're New: Nylon Fabric Shoes And Darning Egg With a Light

THE FIRST NYLON FABRIC shoes to be marketed were sold recently |} by a New York department store. They were In opera pump and sandal |§ styles in black and brown. They are now being manufactured in blue} also, with the pessibility of additional colors being used later.

It is expected that the shoes

fall season. The first -models were made with elasticized linings and | had decorative stitching. They are said to be washable and stain|j resistant in addition to being almost impervious to water and quick

drying. In New York they were sold at $10.86 and were accompanied by nylon handbags at $7.50.

GRANDMOTHER'S DARNING has been modernized by the development of a plastic darning egg with a concealed light that illuminates material from beneath. The modern, plastic version of the oldfashioned darning egg, traditionally associated with lace. caps and rocking chairs, is molded in colorful tenite, : : The top portion is translucent and conceals a tiny light that is fed by a battery in the base of the egg. The current is turned on and off by means of a small switch concealed in the flat end of the device. When it is lighted and inserted in hosiery or under fabrics, embroid‘eries and so forth, every stitch and thread in the material can be planiy seen. The darning egg, which is about the size of a ‘goose egg, is extremely light. In order to replace a worn battery or bulb, the translucent top of the ball is unscrewed and removed. The top portion of the interior is separated from the lower part by a polished reflector that intensifies the light available for sewing. A small, standard battery can be inserted in a molded socket in the base,

TWO WINDOW SHADES are better than one, recent tests have shawn, when it comes to keeping homes cooler in summer and warmer in winter. A single cloth shade, drawn over a window exposed to the summer sun, would reduce heat intake about 45 per cent, but a pair

over each window resulted in a 65; &

per cent reduction. ‘On the other hand, a single shade reduced heat

loss from the room ‘by 40 per cent,i &

while two diminished the loss by about 54 per cent. :

MOSQUITOES and other nightflying insects like the bright lights, but they prefer blue ones. And they definitely do not like red. These photic preferences on the part of nocturnal nuisances were discovered in the course of experiments at the General Electric research station the Ohio Agticultural Experiment Station at Wooster, Insect traps “baited” with bright blue lights, especially the mercury vapor type, caught great quantities of insects, while red lights attracted yelatively few.

NEW CLOG-PROOF salt and

pepper shakers of tenite literally reverse the' ordinary procedure of

~ spreading condiments on food. The

seasoning comes out of the bottom of the shakers and is released by pressing the round knob-like top of a rod that runs down the middle of the device. The blunt end of the rod, which is held in place on the bottom of the shaker by a spring, serves both as a stopper and as a

flange to spread the salt and pepper| #*

evenly. The spring is attached to the top of the shaker, which is molded separately. from the rest, and can be pushed to one side in order to fill with salt. or pepper. The fact that the shakers do not spill their conterits makes them suitable for picnics, lunchboxes and go forth. They are produced in many colors and can be selected to blend with any of the popular potteries. Shakers

“A TRANSPARENT, flexible knife produced in tenite can he used for slicing citrus fruits, tomatoes or celery or for cutting pies, gelatins or sakes. It can dlso be used for paring. Molded in one piece, it has a serrated, sharp edge that cuts with the combined action of a knife and saw. The handle is molded in a ridged design that makes gripping both easy and sure. Due to its formal design; the knife can he used with the most elaborate service,

A PLASTIC MILK BOTTLE CAP is molded of tenite in two sections. The upper, conical-shaped part, which fits tightly over the top

of the bottle, has an inclosed spout

that distributes the milk in an even flow. The lower part is a small semi-circular ring that clamps on the lip of the bottle.

Since milk bottle are usually handled by the top, the tenite caps

The Question Box

Q—Is it harmful for dogs to drink water that has stood in a pan 24 hours or more?

A—It is essential to supply all dogs, except very young puppies, with fresh, clean, cool drinking water. The water in the drinking pans or crocks should be changed several times daily, especially during hot weather. It usually is advisable to provide a separate water container for each dog, and they must be kept clean.

Q—What is head cheese made of? A—Portions of the meat from the head and feet, especially of swine, chopped or cut fine, seasoned, boiled and vressed. Q—How can I get the maximum amount of juice from a lemon? A—Heat it thoroughly before squeezing, which will nearly double the quantity of juice obtained.

Zetathea Club Will Study Poetry

The Zetathea Club will study American Poetry at its meetings during the coming club season. A quotation from Dr. Rabert P. Tristram Coffin, 1936 Pulitzer Prize poet, sets the theme for the study: “Against the patternless, aimless, wandering of life, full of lost motion and .ost matter, poets have raised a wall where a man can rest, where he can be safe in believing even briefly, that life is a shaped and pointed and lovely thing.” President's Day will be Sept. 24 at the home of Mrs. J. W. Knipp. Members will give “Summer Memories.” Papers on Colonial Days by

BEAUTY By Alicia Hart

DONE CORRECTLY, even the simplest heauty routine is beneficial to the skin in more ways than one. For. example cleansing, the simplest step of all, does more than just clean the skin if the cream is smoothed on with upward and out-

the flabby jawline before removal. The same is true of a soap ahd water cleansing. Move washcloth or complexion brush upward from chin to ears, upward from nose to temples, upward on forehead and gently around the eyes, Notice how much better your skin feels afterward than it does after a skinstretching, up and down and around and around scrubbing,

TONIC NIGHT CREAM, even foundation lotion and powder should be applied accordingly. When

cleansing tissue in each hand. Place hands on chin, then move the tissues upward from chin to ears, from nose to temples, upward on forehead, then around and around eyes. Youll be giving your skin

cleansing. Never rub or pat or cleanse your throat with downward strokes. Begin at the base and work upward and outward to jawbone, You cannot, of course, give your face the best possible cleansing, cream treatment or makeup job unless you first wrap a towel or special makeup band around your head to protect your hair. . Fasten it securely, tuck every hair under it, then go ahead without having to worry about your hairline or having to stop creaming or washing about an inch away from it. Furthermore, it’s a good idea to get into the habit of using a makeup cape whenever you are combing your hair or Spplying powder. Makeup capes, available ift all department stores, keep shoulders and collar free from flecks of powder and bits of dandruff, thereby saving a great deal of time that would otherwise be spent brushing.

JANE JORDAN

DEAR JANE JORDAN—I wonder if you can help me with my problem. A young man in whom I am very much interested has been disappointed in life. He is good-looking, a good of fun. He goes along very nicely for a while, then d and seems to be soured on the world and everyone in it. What can I do to help him get straightened dut? : TOOTS. ;

Answer—This isn't your problem, but his. you can do to help him unless he wants to help himself. The chances are that he wants somebody else to make everything come right for him and this is what is the matter with him. He drinks to escap his responsibilities and the knowledge that he isn't as imperten

er and lots too hesvily

There isn't much

He is old enough to stand on his own two feet without ha others wring their hands over him. We suspect him of havi very childish attitude toward life, an inability to bear diss i= ment, a wish to avoid all effort which isn’t pleasing to. him. gets through life on this basis. Everyone must learn to take punis ment from reality. He has proved to be one of those who can't “take it.” There is nothing you can do about it other than to bring him face to face with the facts, which he won't like, I assure you. The explanation for his attitude lies somewhere in his childhood. he had an over-indulgent mother who stood between him consequences of his own acts. Perhaps he had an over strict father who discouraged him to the point where he has no faith in himself. We can feel sorry for him because his training for life has heen inadequate but we can't help him by continuing to treat him like an over-grown baby. J
