EAST LANSING, Mich. —(U.P.)
If you have trouble threading a needle, you might try the new monocord nylon thread which is sold in all colors at most stores.
Nylon Thread Saves Trouble
Florence Rann, extension specialist in clothing at Michigan State University, says this is a permanently bonded threat which doesn't revel or untwist and is easy to thread.
Because of the similarity in elasticity and strength, Miss Rann says use a synthetic thread on a synthetic fabric. For example, use any on thread for a nylon fabric.

Second Gift Is Practical
MILWAUKEE —(U,P)— Never let it be said that women aren't ingenious when it comes to thinking up new ideas for gifts.
One Milwaukee woman has gotten into the habit of presenting a second wedding gift that is completely practical.
Mrs. Edwin Freyburger saves her rags throughout the year. She washes them—removes all buttons or zippers—folds them according to sizes—and puts them away in boxes.
Friends getting married receive their conventional wedding present, but after they return home from their wedding trip, the second gift is there to greet them. The present, of course, is a box generously filled with rags.
Since every young bride needs rags for housekeeping. Mrs. Frey-burger's friends really appreciate her ingenuity.

What's The Confusion?
Pledges are sometimes exasperating, especially when they make mistakes at midnight.
The sorority house was quiet
Almost all the girls were asleep, ex-
cept those who had tests the next
day and were studying.
Suddenly the silence was broken by the scunding of the fire alarm. The girl awakened quickly and began raising window shades, shutting windows, and getting towels and bathrobes as they had been instructed to do for fire alarms.
They went rushing into the halls and headed for the fire escapes.
Some carried stuffed animals, others a favorite skirt or sweater. Almost all had their purses with them. As they gathered in the halls they asked if a fire had started somewhere in the house or if this was a drill.
No one knew. No one knew who had sounded the alarm, or if there was a fire. The president was puzzled.
Then several girls noticed a body in one of the rooms. They pulled back the covers and, there with her hands covering her head, was one of the pledges.
"Why are you still in bed?" one of the girls asked. "There's a fire!" another screamed.
"There's no fire," the pledge answered. "I know why that alarm was sounded."
"Did you do it?" the girls said, with accusing glances. "Is this your idea of a joke?"
"Oh, you all—I'm so sorry. I was trying to sleep, but the hall lights were shining in my room so I got up to turn them off. I guess I didn't see the light switch, because I turned on the fire alarm instead."
Blotting paper makes good lining for bureau drawers. It will retain the scent of sachet and help to impart the perfume to lingerie and other items.

Pajamas? Take Your Pick
VI 3-9849
News for the night watch! The sleeper is outfitted these days in everything from nylon to the flannel partner of the ski suit. Between these two extremes, every girl should find something to satisfy her.
Shorty peajamas should fill the bill for the "light" sleeper. There are many styles to be found in cotton, nylon, or dacron. All are easy to wash and require little or no ironing, an important consideration for the rushing college girl.
Skiers can now sleep, as well as eat and breathe their favorite sport. Ski scenes, chevron patterns, or jacquard patterns resembling snowboarding are available on a flannel or cotton knit pajama top with matching colored pants.
There is still time to dream about your favorite football hero in a red or blue cotton knit uniform with his number on it. These uniforms
have striped sleeves. Bermuda short pants, and matching knee socks. The number is yours to choose.
At another extreme is Schiaparelli's new sleeping creation of black cotton knit pants with a striped shirt in blue and black or yellow and black.
The 1920's have entered the pajama picture with a flapper dress, cut off appropriately two inches above the knees. A tam to hide those curlers, and knee socks complete the effect.
should be examined today. Call for appointment. Any lens or Prescription duplicated.
