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. the pledging last night of Margaret Tichenor, '39, of "Detroit.

Morrill 314 SOUTH STATE STREET F 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.

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. SECRETARIAL and BUSINESS TRINING Combine the Practical with the Theoretical.
