Every mother has more ironing and pressing to do during school terns, No matter how simple a method we give you, the pile of laundry after a big wash is not diminished. If you want your clothes to keep their sage and be easy to iron, put the dresses and blouses on clothes hangers and fuss with, them a bit, so that they will dry smooth and straight. Button the buttons, zip the zippers; straighten the seams, pock- ets •and collar, and you all but iron the dresses. Be kind enough to hang �"' them in the shade, so they keep their even colour. Then when they are taken from the line fold them and stack in a basket instead of crumpl- ing. It is a wise plan to sort linens, cottons, rayons, etc., and turn the garments inside -out. The rayons are dampenedfirst, then cottons, lastly, the linens. Your hot iron will then be in use constantly — first for linens (which need a real hot iron), then -the cottons, and rayons last as they must Ire pressed with the iron at low heat. )Turning an automatic electric iron frequently from high to low re- quires -time to adjust the temperat- ure, and you are apt to damage the witch.) When dampening, be sparing of moisture on spun rayon, a little more lavish on cottons and linens. Use a perforated capped bottle, a clean brush or your finger tips for produc- ing a fine even sprinkle. Cover the dampened clothes in a basket for au hour, or overnlght;..longer may cause minute mould growth. Begin on the seam or hem of the article; do not run into corners. 'Iron with the weave of the material, Iron .with long even strokes, as the steam escapes lore freely than when scit .. strokes are used. Do not press into folds more than is necessary or the sharp edgesmay soon fray, When healing garments picas the thin parts of the maternal first before they dry obt. Hang each article over a clo he t s reek to air thoroughly,. hang- ing blouses, shirts and dresses on hangers. May we remind you that in these full-chedriled days of time conserva- tion not to press articles you need not iron — bath towels, dish towels, overalls, seersucker materials, etc,.. noon is doing unnecessary jobs. TAKE A TIP: 1, Rayons need very low heat, It is wise to try the Iron first on a portion of the fabric that, does not show. 2. Jersey silks, etc., need moderate to low heat. A damp pressing cloth should be used on the wrong side of the garment. 3. Wools need moderate heat. ,Again, • a damp pressing cloth should be placed on the wrong side of the fabric and iron should be pressed down lightly, -The iron should be lifted and placed en the next area — never moved up and down as ordinarily, John Fletcher Passes At Exeter — The death of Mr. oJhn Fletcher occurred at his home, Albert Street, on Sunday, September 19th, follow- ing an illness of about two months.

OOIN . . . while we're planning • Everybody is thinking a great deal about the future these days .. planning ... getting ready for the period to follow the war. All realize that the war may bring surprises—but the tide is turning in our favour. Chemists and engineers, producing things needed for war, are making discoveries which will mean comforts and con- veniences for all of us when peace comes. New methods of making things, new processes, new materials, now being filed away in blue prints and formulae, will bring us many new and useful articles. Many things not available now will be replaced by better models and designs. You may have plans for a new home, remodelling your present home, new home furnishings. If you are a farmer you will need new and improved equip- ment and machinery. Now, while you are thinking and plan- ning, you can do something to insure that your plans can be carried out. Victory Bonds—which can be bought on convenient instalments, with money as you get it—provide a means of keep- ing your savings intact, earmarked for things you want. Most Canadians are saving money. Most of us are buying Victory Bonds and when we buy Victory Bonds we are helping to win the war. We are helping to speed the day of victory and we are doing something that will benefit ourselves. WHAT IS A VICTORY. BOND? A VICTORY BOND is the prothise of the Dominion of Canada to repay in cash the face value of the Bond on the date of maturity with half -yearly interest until that time. A Victory Bond is the safest investment in. Canada backed by the entire resources of the Dominion. Canada has been issuing bonds for 75 years, and has never failed to pay every dollar of principal and interest when due. A Victory Bond is an asset readily marketable at any time. • �erReady VICTO: B 5-3 National War Finance Committee
