Read Polyester Labels
For Care Instructions
Most double knits made of
polyester are washable. But don’t
take this fact for granted, warns
Mrs. Ruth Ann Wilson, Penn
State University Extension
clothing specialist.
Before buying a garment made
of polyester, read the hang tag or
label for recommended care
instructions. You may find a
variety of cleaning methods
listed.
Before tossing everything into
the automatic washer and dryer,
consider the type of garment and
the degree of soil. Garments such
as children’s clothes, men’s
slacks, shirts, and women’s
dress, with an average amount of
soil, can be washed successfully
at home in the washer on the
delicate or wash-and-wear set
ting, or at the coin operated
laundries in washers and dryers
programmed for polyester
double knits.
For those expensive garments
with high fashion details, dry
cleaning may be a better
cleaning method, says Mrs.
Wilson. Oily soil, such as make
up and grease stains also suggest
that the garment should be dry
cleaned.
Take time to read labels for
recommended care instructions
and to evaluate each garment for
the amount of soil. Then decide
on the proper cleaning method
which can prolong the life of the
garment.
Progressive Parties Held
195 Progressive Parties to
benefit the Southern Lancaster
County Family Health Center
have been held and the total
amount received through them as
of October 25 is $2,957.08. The
following recently held parties:
Make Baby Clothes Comfortable
If you’re expecting a new baby,
keep in mind that he’ll need few
garments and accessories. But he
does need clothes that are easy to
launder, lightweight, and ab
sorbent.
Whether your baby is asleep or
awake, see that he’s comfortable,
reminds Mrs. Ruth Ann Wilson,
Pennsylvania State University
Extension clothing specialist.
His clothing, something to wear
or a blanket, must be safe, too.
Garments with neckline
drawstrings can be dangerous.
You’ll want to see that every
garment allows enough freedom
of movement.

Fall is the season for brilliantly
colored leaves.
Here in Pennsylvania we have
123 species of trees.
My favorite one is the
Blackgum. We had a large tree of
this variety in the middle of a
field, but it was cut down the
same as a Black Walnut because
they grew at the wrong place.
There is a huge White Mulberry
shading our summer house and it
has a circumference of over 12
feet.
We’ve been enjoying quinces
which my parents brought from
Berks County I’m told that 100
years ago most people had a
quince tree in the yard, but now
seldom do I see one.
We do have a Persimmon tree
which bears some fruit and I
enjoy hunting them among the
dead leaves after frost I’ve just
been counting and there are 15

fasteners are other features that
you’ll want in your baby’s
clothes. Fancy trimmings may
be pretty, but they can hinder
baby’s movements or make him
uncomfortable.
Garments that are easy to put
on and take off belong in a baby’s
wardrobe, according to Mrs.
Wilson This means plenty of
room at neck openings. Your
baby can be frightened when you
pull a tight garment over his
head. Garments that open flat
rather than slide over the head
are a wise choice.
Another important feature to

different kinds of trees in our
yard and garden.

Halloween season is a time to
remember the fun we had as
children roaming the little village
of Oregon It seems as though the
householders who were the
grouchiest and threatened us
with “boiling water” were the
very ones that had their shutters
removed and their windows
soaped
Oh, to go screaming down the
dark roads and stumbling in the
ditches again
A few years ago my sons
dressed as a Holstein cow at a
party and were an instant sen
sation After standing awhile,
they lay down only to have the
problem of remembering which
“end” gets up first The other
children tried to play
veterinarian and give an in
jection to help them up Even I
had fun sewing those odd-shaped
black patches on a white sheet

My window .sills are now
bulging with houseplants from
my garden and the flower beds of
a kind cottager on our farm.
I greatly enjoy the blooming
begonia and impatiens plants
during the winter months Each
new bud is a constant reminder
the Spring is coming
look for when buying baby
clothes is washabiltiy Mrs
Wilson says you’ll want to
launder baby’s clothes after each
use Remember that absorbent
fabrics will keep him more
comfortable And softness of
fabrics is essential for his tender
skin
When selecting baby’s first
wardrobe, be sure you get soft,
absorbent garments that are
washable-and easy to put on
Although he’ll need few clothes,
Mrs. Wilson reminds you that
he”ll need clothes that will keep
him comfortable 24 hours a day.
