Keeping closets Clean, Orderly
Is Problem In Limited Spcace,
It was stated that interesting the
students in these things is made very
difficult by the fact that students
newly-arrived on campus, and even
those who have been here for some
time, are somewhat baffled by the
situation in which they find them-
selves and have not developed rules
by which to govern their lives nor
goals toward which they may work.

Dress Bags Of Cellophane,
Sweater And Hat Boxesa
Make TidyShelves
By VIRGINIA VORHEES
Closets, like bureau drawers, need
attention when the subject of order!
arises. This matter seems an espe-
cially pertinent one when we take
account of the limited amount of
such space with which college wom-
en are supplied.
Although the redecoration of clos-
ets offers endless opportunities in the
way of added shelves covered with
materials matching the color scheme'
of your room and practical steel shoe
and hat racks which may be covered
with the same material and are
handy when placed on the inside of
the closet door, one is definitely lim-
ited in attempts to install such in-
novations. Landladies and dormitory
directors do not seem to appreciate
these indications of originality.
Order Is Important
A woman must consequently focus
her attention upon ways and means
of overcoming closet handicaps by
making use of less drastic measures
to maintain order and cleanliness.
It is hardly necessary to mention
the dustproof zipper or button dress
bags which come to fit formals or
street-length dresses. Perhaps a
newer addition in this realm are
those bags of glazed cheese-cloth, or
cellophane which come in the blouse
length as well as in the other sizes.
The transparence of these cheese-
cloth and cellophane affairs free the
time-saver from the trouble of un-
fastening several bags before the
right frock is found. This last point
Committee And Chorus
Of J.G.P. Meets Today
The music committee of the Junior
Girls Play will meet at 4 p.m. today
in the game room of the League, it
was announced yesterday by Vir-
ginia Hunt, '33, chairman of the
committee.
The chorus practice for J.G.P. will
also be held at 4:30 p.m. today in
the game room of the League. All
who have previously tried out and
all interested in participation have
been urged to attend.

may also be applied to the new cello-
phane shoe containers which; like-
wise, put an end to a peek-a-boo
game.
Short-Topped Hangers
In connection with the bags for
formals are the short-topped hangers*
which succeed in raising the dress so
that it is less apt to rest on the floor.
Hat stands which clamp on the
shelf, shoe boxes, and cloth-covered
boxes for sweaters and hats reconcile
landladies with anti-screw complexes.
Now, just a worG about pressing
and the general care of clothes. Most
of you probably know that you should
always press a material on the wrong
side, but perhaps less common is the!
knowledge that if a material con-
tains any rayon, the iron should not
be as warm as it may be for pure
silk. If clothes are always hung
wrong side out, they will remainI
much cleaner.

It has been proved by countless tests
that for easy, comfortable seeing-and
the protection of your eyesight-you
need 25 to 30 footcandles of light for
reading, writing, and other ordinary see-
ing tasks. The average lamps in your
home furnish probably 5 to 10 footcan-
dies. Under present-day standards of
lighting, ALL OF YOUR LAMPS may
be out-of-date! This does not mean that
you should discard them. But why not
supplement them with a modern new 3'

advantages shown above? A free Sight-
