Do Home Sewing
By BARBARA BUNDSONU United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Sept. 22 — More than half of America’s house-|
wives will make some or all of} their children’s)
their ‘own and
clothes during 1948, a Survey by : eedlecraft Bureau
the National Ni showed today. A Seventy per cent of the esti-| mated 52,000,000 women who sew
at Dome Said they Xo Hl
marily to save money. And majority Said they didn’t feel théy could stop - until present ready-to-wear clothing prices are cut by at least 40 per cent.
The average adult woman who|
sews at home expects to make herself six dresses, three skirts, four blouses and four pieces of underwear during this year, the survey showed. Women sewing for their children expect to average 14.7 garments during the year. Housewife sewers -also will turn out seven household items, most of them curtains. Sewing teen-agers plan to turn out an average of four dresses, three skirts, four blouses and two suits and coats duging the year. Many, in addition, will make clothing for younger sisters, the survey showed. More than half the women who sew at home turn out a finished garment within two weeks, they told questioners. Thirty-nine per cent reported a one garment per week average. Teen-agers said they - could make a circular skirt in three and one half hours, a tailored blouse with a collar in a few minutes less than that, and a complete dress with set-in sleeves in 6.1 hours.
Those times. were for making| Jt takes]
the garments at home, twice to three times as many hours to do the same job in a school sewing class, the girls said.
The Doctor Says—
Cure Usually v Simple in - wis . . Diverticulitis By EDWIN P; JORDAN, M. D. A DIVERTICULUM is a pouch or pocket. leading off from a large cagity or tube. In the passageway® leading from the mouth to the anus (outlet of the rectum) such pouches are fairly common. Probably there is. some weakness in the wall present at birth in the majority of cases. The most common location for diverticula is in the colon or lower part of the bowel, After the age of 40, it has been estimated
that diverticula are present in perhaps one person out of 20.
Usually these pockets do not pro-|”
duce symptoms and the condition is called diverticulosis. Occasionally they can become inflamed and then the condition is called diverticulitis. In diverticulitis the symptoms of inflammation vary a goed deal. There may be a single slight attack of acute abdominal pain or several episodes of minor difficulty. Occasionally the inflammation may be so severe as to cause a perforation or hole in the pocket with infection spreading to the abdominal cavity and producing peritonitis or abscess formation.
» = » THE AREA involved may be sensitive to pressure, though of course this can oceur from a great many other conditions. Because the symptoms are sao. similar to many other conditions of. the intestines or abdominal ‘contents and are frequently complicated by other disorders, the diagnosis is often difficult. Examination of the lower part of the bowel by the use of an instrument called a proctoscope is necessary. X-ray studies also are needed. When severe diverticulitis bursts through the wall of the bowel or obstructs intestinal action, an operation may have to be considered. In most cases, however, fairly simple "medical treatment is sufficient. Most diverticula do not produce symptoms or damage. Of those which do, the majority can be treated by fairly simple medical management.
DR. ANSWERS—
Question: - Is oleomargarine good for a person who is in the change of life? Answer: Oleomargarine is a good food, but does not have any special influence on the symptoms or processes which constitute the socalled "change of life.”

That wanted, and he promptly doubled. At Grau's next turn he somewhat dejectedly bid four spades.
