State G-5 SONG OF THE TUB A quick review of washing techniques IT’S a passion with American women — the Soap-and-Water Standard for Sum¬ mer. Nothing can equal the cool, fresh charm of spanking-clean, sweet-smelling “washables” — cottons, linens, and infinite varieties of rayons. Since the whole charm of washables is spic-and-spanness, we give you here¬ with a quick, thorough review of the gen¬ tle art of sudsing. For easy reference, cut out the compact chart below and paste it inside your bathroom medicine cabinet. You’ll find it surprisingly useful. The first caution in washing is to he sure the clothes are washable. Ask the saleslady or look for a tag on the dress. If you find a tag, keep it and follow the washing instructions to the letter. If a cot¬ ton or linen dress is not marked ‘"Pre¬ shrunk” or something of the sort, buy it large enough to allow for shrinkage. The whole secret of success in wash¬ ing hinges on three things: Lukewarm water, a mild soap, and quick, gentle hand¬ ling. Although washing varies with the fabric, it is always based on these rules. Whereas washing isn’t really work, ironing is. So we suggest, if you want to keep hand-box fresh and still solvent, you try washing your own things, then sending them to the laundry for ironing. One of the most worrisome laundry problems seems to be that of removing stains. Such being the case, we list a few tried-and-true methods of removing stains from cottons and linens (white only). 1. Lipstick: Launder in hot suds. If the stain persists, bleach with hydrogen peroxide or bottled chlorine bleach. 2. Blood: Soak in cold water first, then launder. Use bottled chlorine bleach if all stain not removed. 3. Coffee: Launder as usual, using chlorine bleach if stain remains. 4. Fruit and berry: Pour boiling water through the stains. If this doesn’t cleanse them, use chlorine bleach. 5. Grass and flower: Thick hot suds, followed by chlorine bleach if necessary. 6. Paint: Soak ordinary paint in kerosene or turpentine, rub out as much paint as possible and launder. 7. Ink: Try one or more of these methods. (1) Launder, (2) Soak in milk one or two days, (3) Apply bottled chlo¬ rine bleach or commercial ink remover. WASHING CHART WASHING RINSING DRYING IRONING STOCKINGS Wash immediately after wearing.
