Studies Made On Fabrics =

For Curtains

36 Samples Tested In Experiments

How will they wear? Will light fade them? How will they stand up under washing, ironing or stretching?

* These are important questions to the housewife who is investing in

new “glass curtains” for her home this fall. Stores offer a variety of sheer cotton and rayon fabrics for

|the curtains that hang next to the]

|window pane. To

make a wise’

choice among them is the problem.

Some suggestions are offered by a study of 36 samples of fabrics for | glass curtains, made at the Ohio {experiment station. The fabrics {tested included cotton voile, scrim, { marquiset, hobbinet and filet as { well as rayon voile, ninon and mar- | quiset.

In the tests the cottons in gen-|

| eral showed greater durability and | serviceability than the rayons of

[similar construction, the station | reports, The fabrics were tested for strength when dry, and also

when wet, as in laundering, Cottons were stronger than rayons when dry, and when wet, cottons gained strength while rayons became weaker. © Tests made after laundering showed that cottons had lost less strength in the process than rayong: The common -household practice I$ to dry thésg sheer tailored curins on stretchers instead of ironing them, The tests showed, however, that all 36 fabrics except acetale rayon, lost more strength in | stretching than in ironing.
