When Mr. Frank Biarhiord tin- iahes a busy year at the Con- aarvntory he will be looking for- ward to spending the summer months at his Lake Hiisseau Cot- tage with Mrs. Blaclitord. their children and ilraiitl children. The BIachl'oi'(l's enjoy sailing and have tvon many cups and prizes. Mrs Hlacbforda hobbies are somewhat similar to Mr. Blachforda. but she is also as he points nut "a wonderful knittar." especially for church work. Mrs. Blachfnrd is also on the Women's Cntnmitliic of the Toronto Symphony ()rclics- tra. Mr. Blachfnrrl of tho tiiznitied bearing is very modest about his own attainments igiild medallist in student days at the t'tin.serv.'i-' tory. five yr-Firs at the l.r-trvlil Cnn.s-m-vatoiyv winning tho t'tli'('lf'fl Helbig prize. fir.-t prt--itleiit oi the Ontario Hc;;i:.torvil .tlii:.it- 'l'eachers' Association in 1936 etc. However when speaking about his family, like all fathers. he speaks quite proudly and tells you that "The daughter is very muslcalw but not professional. She is great- ly interested in her family of youngsters and that her husband is a well-kown commercial artist. The son is in charge of instru- mental activities at the largest school in North York” So the name Blachford continues in musical circles ni Toronto. and in Prince Edward Island we are indeed fortunate to have had Mr. Blachford and his distinguished lleagues as adjudicators. . . .

. The white collar girl has moved tout of the orbit of the typewriter land the filing cabinet and is found l wherever smart women foregather. Whether it's a suit. a coat. or a dress. the smartest clothes are dis- tinguished by spanking white col- lars of linen. of pique. of embroi- dery or lace.

And what does this mean to us?

Why. it means that there's starch in our fashions. and so it behooves the well-groomed woman to have a neat hand with starch. either liquid or dry.

Then. too. the pettlcoat is still

pular. and this. too. calls for tarchlng in many instances.

How to do the best and aim- plest atarcli Job?

Wrlng Clothes Dry

First of all .after washing and rinsing. clothes should be wrung out as dry as possible. This is very important. because if water la left in fabrics. it keeps them front absorbing enough starch to stiffen uniformly.

and sugar. ad: tub,

parts of starch and water. For very heavy atarcliing. such as used for petticoats. lace collars and uniforms of the type worn by nuriles. use one part water to one part starch. For the starching re- quired for men's shirt collars. cur- tains. etc., use two parts water to one of starch.

Lighter ltarnlilnga

A medium atarch job calls for a three-to-one ratio and a light one for four parts water to one of starch. For very light starch- ing. such as is right for dacron or nylon sheer curtains. ten parts of water to one of starch in sug- gested.

Heavy. tightly woven cotton fab- rics like denim. require less starch to reach the same stiffness as loosely woven light fabrics. Gingham, chambray and other fiber fabrics require a more con- centrated starch solution, because the penetration is not so great.

Squeeze Thoroughly

Such garments should be squeer ed thoroughly in the atarch solu- tion. Then wring oui all excess moisture to prevent draining into folds and thus streaking. Hang

enough to hold the articles to be to dry

If starclied garments are damp-

T'T'T' oiied slightly. it cuts ironing time

in half. Some experts like the idea of chilling them by placing in the refrigerator. since this tends to speed up proper moisture distri- bution. But of course if a steam iron is used. there is no need for any molstening procedure.

When ironing. set the temper- ature conlrol one notch cooler than is normally used for the fab- ric being ironed.

Household Hint

Is your home too noisy?

To reduce at least part of the noise. muffle noisy doors with mechani ' door closers that re- tard the sudden spring return. or use resilient materials as buffers. Many hospitals use special rub- her bands over locks to prevent metal-to-metal contact. These can be easily made from an old inner-
