Description:
Radio Mirror (later known as Radio and Television Mirror) was a fan magazine for radio listeners and later TV viewers that includes profiles of the stars, visits to radio and television studios, and program listings. The early years in the 1930s show the interaction of motion pictures, recordings, the stage, radio and even politics. The role of radio in World War II is well covered in the 1940s, and by the 1950s the focus shifts to television and a new generation of personalities. -- David Pierce, 2013

MY LIFE Here are some of the things Alice Frost has done in her home that make it distinctively hers Alice is Pam North of Radio's Mr. and Mrs. North, heard Tuesdays at 8:30 P.M.; EST, on CBS, sponsored by Colgate-Palmolive-Peet. . o/ Ae * . CTT^ For a pattern, use an old lamp shade. ^ ..^ ^ Cut or steam apart carefully along ^^^ the seam. Iron it flat. Trace its out line on artificial parchment and cut out. Then apply the pages as I did, first coating the shade, then each page separately, with rubber cement. After the pages are in place, weight the whole shade evenly so the pages will dry flat. Then shellac. When it's dry, put the shade together the way your pattern shade was fastened. Or, if you doubt your ability to attach the shade to the frame, visit a handicraft shop for materials — they'll show you how. <Jt zyaub to <tJLeacl Recently, when I went into a fabric store to buy some curtain material i found myself, talking to one of those particularly pleasant — and informative — salesgirls you run across every now and then. We got into an interesting discussion of the information on fabric and garment labels — well worth knowing, I think. For instance: "Sanforized" means the remaining shrinkage in the fabric won't exceed one per cent. "Sanforset" is the word with the same meaning to be found on rayon fabrics. "Sanforlan" on woolens. (These are trade names.) "Tebalized" Is a process often used for cottons, linens, rayons and spun rayons to make the fabric crease resistant — does not wear off. Other names for same process: T.B.L., Unidure, Vitalized. "Vatdyed color" means resistant to sunlight, washing with good soaps. RADIO MIRROR for BETTER LIVING 39
