Iva Lanman
h School Spotlight
lva Lanman's dream includes
a trip to Thailand to visit an AFS
student now attending an East
Bremerton school.
"She stayed with us during
AFS week," lva says, "and I hope
to be her guest in the summer of
1972. If it works out, I'll also go
to Tokyo to see Hiroko
Yokoyama, now an AF.S
exchange student in Shelton High
School."
Miss Lanman was born in
Shelton on Feb. 19, 1953,
although the home of her parents,
Mr. and Mrs. Robert E. Lanman,
was then in Quilcene.
"There were no hospital
facilities there," she explains.
She lived in Quilcene until
moving to Shelton as an eighth
grader. She has three brothers.
Ken, older than she, is married;
Gene is in the eighth grade; and

When my children were little I
was a whiz at whipping up cute
costumes. At the drop of just any
old hat 1 was off and running
toward the ultimate creation of
an appropriate garment for an
impending holiday.
At Christmas parties, in their
toddling years, they might appear
as tiny elves in bright red tights,
or as miniature Santa Clauses.
Valentine's Day was very likely to
find them with their hearts on the
seat of their diapers, and on
Halloween I really let myself go.
One year they made the rounds as
an organ grinder and his monkey,
complete with a tiny hand organ,
yet. They were wonderful in their
roles, and many people thought
the monkey was for real. Since
both boys are now much bigger
than 1 am, 1 shall not state which
played the simian lead.
In spite of my prowess in the
fashioning of the festive garb, I
couldn't sew. Give me a pattern
and a sewing machine and a yard
of flannel, and what happened
you wouldn't believe. Although I
did make for the kids a few

pajamas and simple pieces of
outer clothing, as soon as they
were old enough to know better
they refused to wear them.
I remember well the day that
I admitted defeat, once and for
all. My rather rickety old sewing
machine and 1 never did get along
too well; I always had the feeling
that it was out to get me. And on
this particular day, it did.
My first-grader son walked
into the room where I was
struggling valiantly to stich up a
pair of britches.
"Are those pants for me?" he
asked sadly.
"Yes, Honey," I replied
nervously, "and please don't
bother mama now. I have to
watch what I'm doing very
carefully."
"I sure hope," he said
sullenly, "that these don't have
the fly in the back like the last
one's you made."
That did it. I turned to him in
exasperation.
"That happened because you
distracted me," I alibied, "Just
like you're doing now. If you'd
..... YEEAAAAAHH!!!"
I had just run the sewing
machine needle through the
fleshy part of my thumb. And as I
sat there, my distressed digit
impaled on that infernal machine,
the little monster stood just out
of reach and LAUGHED.
Could I but wield the wily needle
Oh what lovely things I'd wheedle
From long reluctant lengths
of cautious cotton!
But my fingers, crude and slattern,
Cut the cloth unlike the pattern
With end results invariably rotten~
Could I but master my machine
How proudly I would make
the scene
In garments of my own unique
design !
In a strange exotic gown
I'd go out and do the town
And never see another dress
like mine !
My dream dress haunts my vision
But I've come to this decision -
In raiment ready-made
I'll hoe my row.
My machine makes fancy stiches
But it won't make skirts
and britches
And I find that wishing doesn't
make it sewl

CORRECT LOCAL
OILINESS
Q. I have generally dry
skin, but my nose is always
shiny. What kind of makeup
should I use?
A. Before thinking,, of
makeup, correct the local
oiliness which causes your nose
to sh ine. After every face
cleansing, apply a normalizing
toner to the oily area.
Use makeup sparingly. As a
first step, apply a pre-makeup
normalizer which forms an
invisible "face blotter". Then,
apply foundation which is light
in texture and low in oils. As
oily skin tends to change
makeup color, choose a
translucent fact powder.
TO RESTORE
HAIR COLOR
Q. I am about 25 per cent
gray. I wish to restore my hair
to its original color without
going to a lot of trouble. What
type of hair coloring product
should I use?
A. Semi-permanent hair
coloring products are relatively
simple to use and yet
completely effective for your
purpose.
These products come ready
to use. Peroxide does not have
to be added. They can also be
applied as often as needed.
Simply choose a color that is as
close as possible to your
natural hair color.

Home Sewing
Finds Favor
It's groovy! It's in! It's doing
your own thing!
And it saves money, giving
people at the same time an
opportunity to express their
creativity and individuality in
terms of quality and variety in
wearing apparel.
These are some of the many
reasons for the tremendous boom
in home sewing.
Whatever the reason, more
than 45 million American women
- and some men - have made
home sewing a $3 billion a year
industry. And the business is
booming; it expects a 15% gain in
1971.
Renewed interest in home
crafts, inflation and the rebellion
against longer skirts are primary
factors responsible for the
popularity of home sewing.
At least 600 million garments
- two out of every five worn by
women and children - are now
made at home. Last year about
one billion yards of material were
sold at an average price of $2 a
yard. Notions such as thread,
zippers, pins and buttons
amounted to $400 million. About
$225 million in patterns were
sold, along with over 2 million
sewing machines.
Home sewing was long
considered an old-lady's task. But
today's seamstresses are young -
nearly half are under 30. Sewing
is the No. 1 hobby of teenagers,
and 25% of teenage girls have
their own sewing machines.
The most significant fact
about sewing is that it has
changed from a chore to a hobby.
And the credit goes to the young.
While it used to be considered
square to make your own clothes,
women are now proud to say,
"Thank you, I made it myself."
Today's youth have
discovered home crafts as a way
of expressing themselves - a way
to be creative and to personalize a
mass-production world, They are
too young to have .the older
generation's depression hang-ups
about home-made clothes. They
started the trend, and the older
generation is following suit.

Mrs. AddLe Fors, president of
the Fawn Lake Woman's Club, is
a great gardener as well as an
ardent handicrafter.
She and her husband, Verner,
a retired construction carpenter,
cleared by hand their Fawn Lake
lot and landscaped the lawns that
surround their home.
In spite of a young dog who
pruned their shrubbery not wisely
but too well, they grow beautiful
roses, bedding plants and fruit
trees.
TippLe, part Bassett, part
spaniel, and part labrador was
orphaned at the age of one week
and subsequently raised by Mrs.
Fors on a diet of Pablum and
other baby cereals.
"He looked like a little bear,"
AddLe recalls, "but you should see
him now! He's not two years old
yet and already weighs 57
pounds."
A lovely red maple, chewed to
the ground by this creature, came
up in bush form, to grow into a
unique specimen. Some of
Tippie's other pruning efforts
were less successful.
Mrs. Fors was born in
Chicago. She came to Washington
in 1937 and moved to the Shelton
area from Bremerton a few years
ago. She has been a member of
the VFW auxiliary for 26 years
and a member of the Eagles
auxiliary for 27 years.
She belongs to the
Fad-of-the-Month Club, from
whom she receives each month a
new handicraft project in kit
form. She draws and paints,
works with felt and foam rubber,
and has taught both knitting and
crocheting.
She makes flowers for the
Eagles Auxiliary bazaars. She has
always liked the creating of
flowers, and has fashioned them
