Tailored Look to Home-Sewn Clothes -
-.DEAR JANE JORDAN—My problem concerns the difference in my husband's attitude toward me and toward his people. He has an 18-year-old daughter by another .» marriage who is the-apple of his eye. He looks her over and says, ' “How thin you are, your: eyes look so tired.” He worries about his mother and wants her to go to the doctor for a check-up His sister comes in "for his sympathy when she is sick, “Go slow now, be careful, don't over-do.” I, too, have been sick, but he never mentions that. I could have more feeling for these illnesses if anyone ever noticed mine, but I am a stranger among - strangers. Now don't I sound like a big baby? He and his family do _ not seem to think that I am made of the same kind of flesh and blood that they are. I feel at the end of the rope. Silly now, isn’t it? But I live with it problem to me, SIS. s & =» Answer—Don't let the. competi--tion get you down! When a man puts three women ahead of his wife she can't be expected to’ swoon with happiness. However, you must remember that this family has i spent many years in building up H . close, affectionate relationships and t you are more or less a newcomer, : You feel left out in the cold, as if you didn't “belong.” I just wonder if this is the way you felt in your own family long ago and if that is why you feel the situation more keenly than you would if you were not beset by yearning which you have felt for ages. Did you ever have a younger sister who always got the best of it, as your step-daughter does, a sister whom you liked yet resented? Did your mother get more attention from your father than you did? The fact that you accuse yourself of sounding like a baby rather suggests that you have been in a simflar situation before and recognize the element of childish rivalry in " your reactions, Try a more mature approach to your problem. Your husband has a daughter, mother and sister to love but it wasn't enough. He needed another woman, a closer tie. Instead of wondering what they have | that you Haven't got, ask yourselr why he needed you, for this need

2. Press all creases out of the fabric before cutting. Wrinkled.fabric is difficult to work with, and cannot be cut accurately. 3. Do not join seams until they have been pressed. Press each seam as it is finished, and each piece of binding or facing. To save time, stitch as many single seams as possible at one time and press before joining the parts together. 4. Edge-stitched or top-stitched seams should not be pressed open. Do not reverse the direction of the seam allowance as you press. 5. Press darts to one side.

Yqur pressing equipment is important, too, in helping you achieve smart dressmaking results. Many simple pressing aids—all of them inexpensive—speed up your work today and make it easy to do skillful pressing right at home. ” 8 8
Handy Press Mit
THE MODERN VERSION of the tailor's cushion, for example, is a handy press mit which slips over the left hand; with the padded portion rolling over the knuckles like a boxing glove. Using the mit as a pad under the section to be pressed, you can get into all the little curves and difficult places, A well padded sleeve board is another valuable pressing tool. This is a miniature ironing board, designed to fit into sleeves—and it's also a great aid in pressing baby clothes! One of the most effective new pressing aids is a chemically treated press cloth which produces a genuine steam press when used with any kind of fron! You simply moisten the cloth with a sponge, and press, keeping your iron at a medium hot temperature. The active steam thus created gives a lasting steam press..to.any type of fabric—even velvet—and a professional finish to your home-sewn clothes.
Soap Salvage Tips Listed
Vital war materials are used In the making of soap, so it's wise to
as possible by keeping it out of water when it isn't being used and iby making sure the soap dish is {dry before putting the bar in it.
| Keep a rag handy for this purpose. | 17 Also keep ‘a container handy to] Use them to fill
hold soap scraps. the wire soap shaker that whips up suds in the dishpan, or, when a fair-sized collection is on hand, dissolve the scraps in boiling water. The resulting soap jelly is excellent for shampooing hair and for making soft suds to wash hose.
Reinforce Heels, Toes
For Longer Wear
You probably need no.reminding that silks and nylons are gone and that you must put up with. substitute materials that demand a great deal more care. You can keep your hosiery bill down by following the example of the women in England who carefully reinforce heels, toes and tops
| with deft running stitches invisible
from the outside. Be sure to wash hose after each wearing, gently squeezing them -in lukewarm sudsy water and rinsing thoroughly.
Shifting of Rugs Distributes Wear
Rugs are both scarce and costly. They will last longer if precautions
ground at least every six months to ‘prevent some places from getting more wear than others. Be sure the legs of heavy furniture are placed on rests to prevent their marking the rug, Always push vacuum or carpet sweepers with the nap of the rug rather than against it. Vacuum the pad beneath the rug when. the rug is shifted.
More Ration Points, If Health Requires
If a person’s health requires that he have more rationed foods than his points allow him to buy, he may apply to his local price rationing board for additional points. He must take with him a statement signed by a licensed medical practitioner stating the amounts and types of food he needs during a two-month period and why unrationed food , Sanmot be used
