If you don’t like a book, return it. One reason .so many of these books are sold by mail is that you wouldn’t buy them if you did examine them first. The manufac turer gambles on the fact that you won’t go to the bother of returning the book. If you need a reference, try a bookstore first and - thoroughly examine the book to see if it is right for your needs. When evaluating the worth of a book, look for a description of the author’s credentials. This may not mean a thing, but if there is no reference to the author, you have a right to wonder why. You may be better off to invest your time and money in a good sewing class in stead of a book, points out Mrs. Wilson. Once you learn the basic techniques you can get most of the additional help you need from the pattern instructions. Also use your common sense and creative instinct and you may come up with solution to particular problems that are better than those in any reference book. If the brown-baggers in your family are tired of cold sandwiches and potato chips for lunch every day, why not tempt their appetites by packing variety into the lunch bags. During cold weather, add variety to sack lunches by packing hot dishes. This may mean investing in a wide mouthed thermos, but the benefits will be worth the cost. The food won’t be eaten for four or five hours, so take precautions to keep food hot. Heat the inside of the thermos first with hot water. Be sure the food you pack is boiling hot. Then once the food is in the thermos, quickly close the lid.
