Oilcloth Shelf Edging
For Kitchen Windows
By RUTH WYETH SPEARS
XYfE ARE indebted to one of the
readers of this column for
this idea. She was so enthusiastic
about the book, SEWING, for the
Home Decorator, offered with
these articles that she wrote a
nice letter of appreciation and also
described this clever idea of her
own for making her kitchen gay.
All of us know how often kitchen
curtains must be laundered. Yet,

ENOS AND
BRASS RINGS
we like interesting windows in this
room as well as any other. Well,
here is the answer with the mini
mum of work.
The curtains themselves are as
easy to wash and iron as a dish
towel—llo frills, just hems. But
don’t make them too skimpy. A
full width of 35-inch-wide material
is not too wide. Cut away 1 the sel
vage at the front edge and hem
it with a 1-inch hem. Use a 2-
inch hem at the bottom. This gives
the curtains body so they will
have smart crisp lines. The cas
ing at the top should be just wide
enough for the curtain rod. And
don’t forget to allow for shrink
age if the material is not pre
shrunken.
If figured material is used,
choose colors that will harmonize
with the shelf edging along the
top of the window and the tie-
backs as shown in the sketch. The
thumb tacks used for the shelf
edging may also add color Inter
ests
NOTE: Every Homemaker
should have a copy of Mrs. Spears’
book, SEWING, for the Home Dec
orator. Forty-eight pages of di
rections for making slip-covers
and curtains; dressing tables;
lampshades and many other use
ful articles for the home. Price
25 cents postpaid (coin preferned).
Ask for Book 1, and address Mrs.

Some of the most important
ruleg'for safe driving:
" Never drive fast over a road
you don’t know like a book.
Learn what you can expect of
your car.
Always expect the worst. If
there’s a tree beside the road
ahead, figure a car may come
from behind it. If there’s a
house near by, a child may ran
aci'h'ss the road there. If there’s
a parked car, count on its cat
ting i suddenly onto jthe pave
ment. • v. ■
/Signal your intentions to all
persons who may be affected
by your acts.

may indicate worms. The best
