HomeMy WebLinkAboutClinton News-Record, 1971-11-11, Page 15The bathroom can be one of the most enjoyable rooms in the house, where for a few minutes each day you can sink into the luxury of a warm and relaxing bath. THE `NOW' BATHROOM NEEDS TO SPARKLE RESEARCH has shown that a woman can truly relax when she steps into a luxurious bub- ble bath and for a few min- utes at least can put aside the problems of the day, and devote a small amount of time to herself. However, she still has the problem of coping with keeping the bathroom fresh and clean. Today there are sprays to keep tiles, enamel and floors clean, as well as specially produced bath- room deodorizers to keep the room sweet smelling. But the total look can be spoiled with dowdy looking towels and shower curtains. Bathroom accessories now range from deep-piled car- pets to jewel-toned towels and elegant shower curtains and most of them are ma- chine washable. Brilliantly colored and practical — terry makes towels so easy to wash and dry. While most are all cotton, some may include rayon or other man-made fibres to improve their ab- sorbency, strength and dye- ability, All terry towels should be machine washed and dryer-dried for best results. Wash deep tones separately the first few times to re- move any excess dye. Use the regular cycle on your machine but don't use a chlorine bleach for deep colored or monogrammed towels. Add 1 cup of an additive such as Borateem with your detergent, this helps keep the towels bright and absorbent. Dryer dry your towels for the softest fluffiest results — don't iron them. Also, be sparing in the use of fabric softeners, otherwise the towels will not absorb moisture. by Joyce Champion The additive will help sani- tize, deodorize and stop the growth of mildew on your curtains. Rinse with cool water and then either dryer dry using the no-heat set- ting or hang to dry on the shower rod. Bathroom carpets, area rugs and lid covers all machine wash beautifully on the reg- ular cycle with warm water. Add I/2 cup of Borateem to the final rinse for extra softness. These items look best when they arc dryer dried, but rugs with a latex backing should be air dried since excessive heat will deteriorate the backings and could damage your dryer.

UNITED CHURCH Hear The Fabulous COOK FAMILY Play and Sing -- All Welcome Button! Button! 13utton! Whose got the button." Remember when as children we played the simple guessing game? Lucy has been playing with buttons lately, but who has the button, she has no idea, It so happened that she wanted a set of buttons for a costume. Why buy new ones when she had hundreds in boxes—the collection of her mother's quart jar almost full, her grandmother I3uchan's button boy and an equal number which had been saved from. Carl's mother and sister Fanny. Over and over Lucy looked through them but when one found four for a jacket, there would only be three of five for the sleeves. There were some beautiful black jet buttons which had been piobably belonged to her grandmother, but only two larger ones. There were three very large ones which came off her grandmother's coat but they were too heavy. Always one or two short. Had they been lost or broken? It was equally fascinating and frustrating looking over the contents of boxes but Lucy knows now where she'd find suddenly find another, the joy of the button collector. Most interesting were some brass buttons depicting Aesop's fable of the fox and the crow, in relief. The wily fox saw the crow sitting high on the limb of a tree with some cheese in his bill. The fox coveted it, so flattered the crow about his beautiful plumage but slyly added, "I have never heard your voice". When the proud crow opened his bill to sing, the cheese fell to the ground and the fox ate it and trotted off. They came from the Diehl home and there were no smaller matching buttons. There were a number of smaller brass buttons with crystal flowers in relief. How pretty they must have been when new! To say nothing of a variety of jet buttons in various small sizes and pottery. Lucy wished she could have used them but somehow or other, her friends don't seem to think she is quite old enough for black yet. But so many of them must have been flattering to the costume and the wearer. Also the buttons brought back so many memories. There was one beautiful, smooth, white pearl which had been used on the white imitation fur cloth coat which mother had made Lucy and Jean when they were very small. Those buttons had been used over and over again on some garment passed on to another girl. Then there were smoked pearl buttons which appear down the side of a dress'worn by her mother when she was 16 in a family group. These same buttons—at least some of them—fastened a taupe serge spring coat which mother made herself in the second decade of the century. Then there were some small garnet-coloured buttons which matched the braid trim on a sailor, collar on a navy blue serge dress which Lucy had about 10 or 12 years of age. She found one brown mottled button which had trimmed the long, yoke from which box pleats fell the full length of the dress in brown serge. Well, Lucy remembers that garment! She got a spot of grease on one pleat and she decided to take it out. She'd seen her mother use a little ammonia in water when sponging and pressing her father's suit. Being in her teens, she decided to clean it herself. The ammonia used too liberally took out the grease and also the colour. It was her "best" dress, for in those days she only had two winter—dresses one for school and one for best. Spot or no spot, she had to wear it for the best and then for "second" until it was worn out. A string of inch black tailors buttons and matching small ones reminded her of the separate navy blue serge skirt her mother made her in her late teens. Of course it was fairly long and buttons must have been in vogue that year for there was a row of these inch buttons on the only pleat in the centre back, while the smaller buttons decorated the flaps or suede pockets bound in military braid hanging at each side in front. Now Lucy doesn't know how she ever managed to sit on all those buttons, but of course she was young and one suffered for style in those days—remember the hobble skirts? Then there were buckles. Some pretty—some not so pretty. Carl admired a metal one set with green and red "gems". It recalled an incident on Easter Day about 1926. Sister Jean was home for the holiday. The Reverand William Hinde (who was known in this Diocese as "Hinde the Joker") had come after church to visit Lucy's father. Jean had on a pretty dress which came to just below the knees and on which this buckle was an ornament. She sat down in a wicker chair, the seat of which was high in front. Lucy saw Mr. Hinde look at her and then look away several times in his conversation with father. He was very fond of Jean since being called to the house to baptize her when it was feared she was dying of pneumonia between two and three years of age. When he got up to leave, he said "Jean, my dear. That is a very pretty dress. I admire your taste, but don't you think you'd better get some elastic and put it in at the top so that when you sit down your skirt will cover your knees. What would have the Reverend gentleman's remarks had he seen the mini skirts and hot pants of today! LET US MAKE YOUR OLD FURNITURE BETTER THAN NEW!

Friends are pleased to learn that Mrs. Charles Scott and Mrs, Richard Brooks were well enough to return home after being patients in Clinton Hospital. Both are convalescing at their homes in the village. Mrs. Mary Johnston of Most of us are aware that crooked teeth are unsightly. Some of us realize that the "buck" teeth of a teenager can lead to emotional problems. But few people know that crooked teeth can cause digestive problems. If the upper and lower teeth do not meet properly, the person cannot chew his food properly. This also leads to decay because particles of food can't be dislodged from overlapping teeth. A good "bite" has a self-cleaning action, Pain in the jaw joints can be created by croaked teeth. The sad fact at this disadvantage Is that the joint pains don't usually show up until years later — when it is not as easy to straighten teeth. Treatment can begin as early as 8 years old. Crooked teeth can also cause speech difficulties. Combine these with the mental distress by Misses Brenda Ball and Pauline Ahdrie on Jamaica where they had holidayed a few weeks ago. They showed pictures and souvenirs which they had brought home with them from their trip. Mrs. Ronald Gross thanked them for their travelogue and presented them with gifts of appreciation.

Poor temperament from regular digestive upsets, shame from speech problems or unsightly teeth or chronic decay can seriously undermine a child's confidence.
