BLUEING ACTS AS DYI IN CLOTHES WASHING

Contrary to general opinion blu- ing ls not a necessity in the aun- dry. Its action is neither that of a cleansing agent nor a. bleach, but as a dye. Since blue and yellow are complementary colors, a rinse in blulng tends to neutralize the yellow color sometimes acquired by white fabrics. It soap ls always rinsed out completely and the clothes dried in the sun and nir, they are less likely to turn yellow

ing ls prinzarily intended to mask yellow, but is sometimes used in an attmept to hide bad color due to faulty washing.

1f bluing is added to clothes which have become grisly from washing in hard water, b‘. ng only makes them look grayer,

Casualties of ‘War Are in Sick‘

Room As Well "As on Battlefield.

Depression Is Contagious- Women Should Keep Up Home Morale

When we have daily evidence of the heroism with which our sol- diers are fighting on land and sea, it doesn't seem necessary to worry any more about building up their morale. So perhaps, we can take a little time of! to try to strengthen the morale of the home front. For that is what needs pepplng up and having a little intestinal fortitude infused into it. It isn't the boys in the Solomon Islands. 0r the Arctic circle. or down in Eflbt, who are howling and complaining of the terrible sacrifices they are being called upon to make, and suiting down ~ everybody who will listen to them with their tears.

It is the weeping mothers who tell you how they have gone into a decline grieving over their darling baby boys being so far away and ex- posed to so much danger. 1t is the chair-sitters, who wouldn't know a tommy gun from a battle- axe, who discourse by the hour about the mis- takes the army and navy are making and the general mismanagement of the war by the higher-ups in Washington. It is all the bal- ance of us who grouch over tire rstioningand not being able to have all the sugar and coffee we want, and having to put up with poor ser- vice in the shops, and so on and on.

Go where you will the atmosphere is as blue as indigo. Everyone is holding a lodge of sor- I row, and the conversation makes the lamenta-

tlons of Jeremiah seem almost like a comic strip. And the queer part of it all is that we do not realize the harm we are doing For depres- sion is Just as catching as the measles, and when it becomes epidemic. as it is now, it is just as fatal as any other plague. It slays its thousands.

KILLED BY WAR TALK

You can't pick up your morning paper without reading of someone you know who has dropped dead in his office or 0n the street. Every day you hear of some delicate woman friend or old person, who norm- ally might have lived for years, who has passed on. and you know that, no matter what the death certificate says. they have been killed by war tall. Their frail bodies couldn't stand the extra. burden that their mental sufferings put upon them. The casualties of war are in the sick- room, as well as on the battlefield.

There is hardly u business that has not been hlt in one way or another by the war. It. has robbed thousands of men of the labor of l

lifetime. They have seen their factories closed by government 0r- der, their occupations taken away from them. Their losses drive many of these men t suicide. 1t breaks the spirit of others so that they

never have the courage to make a new beginning. Others wrest vic- tory out of defeat. But whatever ‘ ne to men like these de- pends upon whether they are going to meet cheer, or despai , in their own homes-

11 their wives are defeatist-s who see no ray of light on the horizon and who pour over them all the fears their morbid imaginations have conjured up of what may be happening to their sons, it. breaks down the last particle of resistance the men have. They. too. succumb to gloom and h0p€le55fi€5S_

But if they go to homes where the lights are shining and to wives who have put on gay dresses and nailed on their faces the smiles that won't come off, and who talk of pleasant, lnocuous nelghbrxhood hap- penings and who, perhaps, have picked up a funny story, it bucks them up and gives them the courage to carry on.

CHEERFULNESS A DUTY

After all, women are the world's great propogandists. ‘they sell their husbands their point of view far more often than their husbands know themselves, and that is what makes it so important that women should try to build up the home morale. It is in their keeping.

Of course, women will say that they don't feel gay, or like being lively companions when their hearts are torn to shreds with anxiety over the dangers to which those whom they love better than life itself are being exposed. But this is a time when they should assume a vir- tue, even if they have it not. It ls a time when cheerfulness becomes a duty. It is a time when they should show their courage by fighting their fears, just as their men are showing theirs by fighting their foes on the battlefield. It is a time when depressing talk is giving aid to the enemy and we should bite our tongues off rather than indulge in it,

Keeping up the home morale is a woman's Job. It isn't an easy one. It is a hard one. It is always easier to slump than it is to stand up straight and take blows on the chin. It is easier to howl and complain than it is to lift your voice in a merry roundelay, especially when your heart is as heavy as lead. Only one builds up the people about you and the other one tears them down. So choose the better part Do your weeping in private. Keep your fears to yourself, instead '01 passing them on. Buck up everyone with whom you come in contact, instead of giving them an added load of woe.

Just remember that it is as miuch your patriotic

duty to be cheerful ' as it is tn knit sweaters. And a. lot more important,
