.July 31~ 1945 The OBSERVER Pace 3 Take Care of Your Clothes • • • I Give your clothes a rest. Alternat e your clothes so that you don't ''ear the same suit every dav. This n:rocedure gives the wool fibers a chance" to relax and spring b&cH: into shape. And you'll save plenty on pressing. Out, damned spot! Mr. Shakespeare didn't have home cleaning fluids. You do. Get after every spot quickly - t he longer it's in, the h arder it is to get out. N ever have a suit pressed unless all spots are removed. -----------------------------------· 1 and They'll Take Care of You! ' to the current emergency we haven't quite as many - on our racks as we'd like ... and as you'd like to find- But one thing is certain ... if you have one or two Hart Schaffner & Marx ~uits in your wardrobe, you'll be well t aken care of for some time to come . providing, of course that you take good care of what you have ! Here are a few suggestions on how to make the QUALITY clothes you do have keep their appearance and last longer! The brush ofi, is something you , yourself, can give your clothes regularly. Brushing removes grinding dust particles and if done properly, discourages moths. If possible, take t he suit outdoors for an airing and thorough brushing. -----------------------------------· Grime doesn't pay. A dust-filled suit wears out quickly' because dust particles cut the fiber. Patronize a good cleaner- "cheap" cleaning merely spreads the dirt, and causes shine. Warn– ing: Don't clean a suit to death. Too frequent cleaning will make any fabric lose its lustre. ------------------------------------ Give 'em c;k. Airing clothes is very important. Leave the clothes closet door open at night to permit the clothes to get their share of ozone. They'll smell fresher in the ~orning and won't provide quite such a haven for moths. 1)1; &t~. ·~~~ ' For Pressing engagements. If your suits are pressed at home, be very sure to use a damp cloth between the fabric and the iron in order to prevent shine. A hot, dry iron can cause havoc when applied directly to any wool material. -----------------------------------; · A stitch In time is really worth nine. A rip at a Pt.!t 'em away clean. When putting garments pocket corner that's n eglected will eventually away for the season (winter suits for the s~mm~r, Broadway Washington at cause big damage. If a seam opens in the lining, etc.) , they should be clea~. Dry cleanmg .will it will quickly fray out. R epair at once-wh~le not only take out stains, whiCh attract parasites, the cut, break, tear, or worn place is small. but it also dest roys moths in any form.
