the store, it's a good idea to do a little estimating on the time and effort necessary to keep those curtains fresh and pretty. Today your money can buy curtains so simple to care for that you and hanging them to drip-dry Is the most satisfactory care--and certainly the easiest. Know the Subject Knowledge of the various glass curtain materials helps the homemaker decide just which type is best for her purposes. One wonder fiber, for instance, has unusual re- can declare a holiday from starch- slstan ce to sunlight, radiator heat ing, stretching, bleaching, bluing' and ironing. PRETTY LEMON TARTS You can make lemon tarts look extra pretty.

When you are mounding the meringue over the filling, make a small depression in the center and bake usual. Before serving, fill the depressions in the jnrrinjrue with little currant Jelly. COMPANY SALAD Cooked artichokes, accompanied by browned butter, make a fine appetizer or rouise for company dinner. To prepare the butter, just put it in a skillet and allow to stand over moderately low heat until nut-brown. Watch carefully so as not to bunn and stir a few times.

SUNDAY DESSERT Dessert for Sunday dinner: Balls of chocolate ice cream rolled in chopped nuts and garnished with a spoonful of whipped cream and a cherry. Housewife's Goal The smart homemaker's aim, of course, is to get as many of these virtues as possible one set of curtains--provided they all add up to the decorative effect she wants to achieve at her windows. The homemaker's interest in synthetic fibers, plastics and spun glass is mounting by the day. Thfse synthetics are so beautifully washable in just soap and water, with no need for ironing, that their easy upkeep makes an instant appeal. Advice Differs Some sources may recommend hand washing, while certain manufacturers declare their product is safe in the machine.

It's a loj smarter to take the manufacturer's suggestions than those of your neighbor, no matter how good a housekeeper she may be. Generally speaking, it boils down to this: the very qualities that make a curtain material wrinkle- resistant also cause it to retain wrinkles that are set in when it is wet. So, no matter what washing method you use. the object is to avoid deep wrinitles and too-brisk abrasion. Don't spin-dry such materials, for this can cause wrinkles.

Provide a buffer for these types of curtains during the machin-sud- sing process by enclosing them in a mesh bag or pll'ow slip. Don't twist, wring or mangle them. Usually, simple sudsing and rinsing I Business fir Residential AWNINGS CUSTOM MADE FOR FREE ESTIMATES CALL 4745 H. A. Gvllfonl, Bradford, Pa.

and mildew. Another's permanent crispness and non-wilting virtues in steamy air are its chief assets. The snowy whiteness of yet another synthetic, plus its flame-re-' sistance, are major considerations. But. whether they claim just a few or all of thege advantages, any one of the new curtain materials makes the homemaker's curtain laundering easy.

i On the subject of washing, some women have found that they get the best results by sudsing the synthetics in the bathtub, smoothing the suds on with the hands rather than by squeezing. To use this method, fold the curtain lengthwise, then over again into quarters--folding lightly without pressure. Thoroughly soap each quarter by smoothing on thick suds with the palm of the hand. Rinse in same manner, patting the rinse water through. Then hang dripping curtain over shower rod or a wire rack to dry over the tub or hang them over a line out of doors.

An alternate method is to fold curtains lightly and' dip in and out of the suds and rinses without twisting, wringing or rubbing. I Mother's Day Use Our Lay-Away Plan i i 105 Mala it.
