Many appliance service calls
to lepairmen are needless, ac
cording to Mrs. Cecile P. Sin

ment specialist of The Pennsjl
vama State University.
Dealers say that some of the
calls they get end up with the
repairman teaching the consum
er how to operate her equip
ment. Nothing was out of order
with the appliance.
You can avoid this needless
spending of money. Mrs. Smden
suggests several checkups to
make before calling the service
department.
Before you take an appliance
home, be sure you get a thor
ough demonstration of just how
it operates. Have the operation
manual in hand so you know
where the ready reference is for
each feature the appliance is
claimed to perform.
It the piece is sizeable and the
dealer needs to deliver and in
stall it. have him go over the
operations again with you in
your home. This might give you
a chance to read the “Use and
Care” manual before he arrives.
Add some notes of your own m

Notes help when the operation
demonstration has grown cold
Besides consulting the manual,
Mrs. Smden reminds you to

Good Shears Wise Investment
Buy a good pair of shears,
suggests Mrs. Mae Barton, Penn
State extension clothing special
ist. It's worth the extra cost to
buy the best and have the cor
rect shears for the job. Try out
several pairs before buying. Cut
into a piece of fabric, making
sure the shears cut sharply from
n~ar the back of the blades up
to the points and release the
fabric as soon as the cut is com
pleted.
