of fleece wool for warm uniforms and blankets. The new bulletin, “Take Care of the Wool You Have,” tells how to clean, wash, press, mend and store wool. Capies may be obtained from the depart“ment of agriculture in Washington. The publication, with the timely " reminder that every clothes moth and carpet beetle living off good wool is helping the axis, offers a series of wool-care tips. : A ® 2 8 5 Tips on Care KEEP WOOL CLEAN.

A gentle ariing ‘blows stale odors sway and lifts matted nap. Sun baths rout moths from wool—but take care lest colors fade. - MEND IT N TIME. . Tiny. holes deserve careful mending and are easier to hide than big holes. And a thin place reinforced may never break through. DON'T SHOCK IT. Wool can’t stand sharp temperature charges. A plunge into hot water shrinks the fibers, mats them. Drying in cold blasts of air or hy a hot stove shrinks and hardens the fabric. Once the comforting softness is ~ gone, it’s gone.

DEAR JANE JORDAN —1I have been married for a number of years. I have a good husband, two children and a comfortable home. My husband is quite a bit older than I am and very settled in his ways. Up to now I have been a person who could adjust to almost any situation, but I want my husband to take me some place for a litle enjoyment at least once a : week so I can forget the old day in and day out work I am doing.

Answer—To begin with, I think that you are right and your husband is wrong. Every married couple needs diversion outside the home. Your husband would enjoy it, too, if you could find some way to jar him out of the rut. Why don’t you invite people in for the evening who would, in turn, _|invite you out? Or why don't you get your friends to cook up something pleasant to do in which you would be included? .If some of his men friends put a little friendly pressure on him to get up and go somewhere perhaps he would re- ?

At least do something to break the ‘deadlock between you. You want to go. He wants to sit, You won't go without him. He won't go with you. Surprise him by tearing out occasionally, To be sure it is not as much fun to go alone as it is to go with one’s husband, but it is better than dying on ‘the vine.

KINGAN AND COMPANY daily are supplying huge quantities of meat to our Armed Forces at home and abroad, and this Easter the ham you might have had will be enjoyed by those who fight for us!
