Uc 5 New and Fascinating Transparent Sewing By RUTH WYETH SPEARS / T'HERE are fascinating new A transparent materials on the market now. Luncheon sets and aprons and rain coats and closet accessories all take on nGw glam our when made of them, and you will find that every left-over scrap will be used for something that is attractive and worth while. Less than 50 cents’ worth of thi« window-pane clear material made the hat cover, underwear case and STITCH TOGETHER THEN BIND two glove cases like the one shown, here. All the directions for cut ting and making the hat cover are given here in the sketch. The material from two corners made the square underwear case. The material from each of the other two corners was folded to make a glove or handkerchief casd. Bright blue bias tape was used for seam binding and the bottom facing and loop handle of the hat cover; and colored zippers to match the bind ings were used for the case clos ings. Today’s avticle is typical of the econ omy short cuts that I like to plan for homemaking budgeteers. (There are com plete working drawings for thirty-two homemaking projects in SEWING Book C —enough exciting ideas to keep you busy all the rest of the winter. Send order to: MRS. RUTH WYETH SPEARS Drawer 10 Bedford Hills New York Enclose 10 cents for Book 6.

It gives us the most priceless feeling In the world: the feeling of being adequately prepared. # When we go into a store, prepared beforehand with knowledge of what is offered and at what price, we go as an expert buyer, filled with self-confi dence. It is a pleasant feeling to have, the feeling of adequacy. Most of the unhappiness In the world can be traced to a lack of this feeling. Thus adver tising shows another of Its manifold facets—shows itseif as an aid toward making all our business relationships mere secure and pleasant. ss$$s$$ssssssss$
