About Blanket
Care?
It will soon be time to store
winter blankets. Woolen blankets
need to be cleaned before being
stored. CHECK CARE LABEL,
and if laundering is recommended
consider the following method.
Carefully read the following
directions to avoid a combination
of heat, moisture, and agitation
that can cause wool fiber to felt.
Fill your washer with cool
water, add detergent and agitate to
completely disperse the product.
Stop the washer and load the
unfolded blanket evenly around
the agitator. Soak for 10 to 15
minutes, then agitate on the gentle
cycle for one minute. Stop the
washer. Advance the timer to the
drain cycle and spin for about one
minute.
Rinse by filling the washer with
cold water for a deep rinse. Add
fabric softener and allow washer
to complete the rest of the cycle
automatically. For dryer drying,
set temperature selector to the
“high” setting. Place three or four
dry bath towels in the dryer and
turn the dryer on for a few
minutes. Heated towels help to
absorb moisture and dry the
blanket more quickly. Reset your
temperature control to “air” or

“fluit” and place the blanket in
dryer. Set timer control to 20
minutes.
Check after ten minutes and
remove the blanket while still
damp. Over-drying and excessive
tumbling may cause shrinkage.
Place the blanket on a flat surface
or stretch over two clothes lines to
complete drying. Brush up the nap
using a nylon brush. Press the
binding with a cool iron, if neces
sary. To line dry, hang the blanket
over two parallel lines and
straighten. Then brush up the nap
with a nylon brush.
Fine Tune Your
Retirement Marriage
If a marriage is to satisfy the
needs of both husband and wife in
retirement, some fine tuning is
probably in order. Perhaps you
have been able to do some
advance planning. That’s a good
start, but developing some strate
gies for everyday living can add
smoothness, purpose and variety
to each week.
Joint planning helps you main
tain a sense of control over your
life as a couple. Instead of being
propelled by outside forces, you
can be the planners for much of
your life. You will feel a greater
sense of accomplishment and
relaxation if you get out the calen-

maintaining the highest level of
health fitness as possible? Regular
medical checkups? An exercise
