Mrs. Gunter is capable in the
handling of stretch fabrics.

garment. In two hours and 15
minutes 1 made shirts: for the
entire family, and these all had
front zippers!"
She sings and plays piano and
listens to music. She crochets and
finds pleasure in making articles
for her home. She is fond of the
two dogs, two cats and tropical
fish that are family pets.
Cooking is not only a joy and
an accomplishment, but she
regards it as a challenge with
today's high prices and the rush
of the family activities.
"1 like to cook from scratch,"
she maintains. "It may be more
work but it is" certainly more
economical and the finished
product is much tastier. My
family can always tell the
difference if I resort to a prepared
mix.
"We drink lots of cocoa," she
reports, "and I can make a good
mix for half of the store price, l
just blend an eight-quart box of
powdered milk, a two-pound box
of cocoa, a six-ounce jar of
non-dairy creamer and one cup of
powdered sugar.
"I store it in a tightly covered
container, and it makes 60 cups
of cocoa. Add a third cup of mix
to each cup of hot water."
She makes a health cereal that
she finds less expensive, more
flavorable and more nutritious
than any ready-mix. She mixes
together 12 cups of rolled oats,
one and a half cupfuls of brown
sugar (tightly packed), two
teaspoonsful of cinnamon and
two teaspoonsful of salt. In a
separate container she blends a
cupful of water, a cupful of oil
and two tablespoonsful of vanilla.
She then pours the liquid into the
dry mixture and blends well. The
mixture is next spread on baking
sheets and baked at 250 degrees
for two or three hours, and she
stirs it every 15 minutes, adding
raisins and sunflower seeds the
last 15 minutes.

Q. My daughter's hair has I
a dull color. I don't want her
to dye it. How car, she change
its color subtly?
A. A color shampoo will
brighten your daughter's dull
hair and accentuate its sheen
without actually coloring it.
She can ~choose a shade that
harmonizes with her natural
color.
Highlighting
Q. I would like to add
highlights to my hair, but I do
not want to change the color.
What type of coloring product
should ! use~.
A. A temporary hair
coloring, applied after your
regular shampoo, can be used
to enhance or highlight your
natural hair color or to blend
away gray hairs.
Unlike permanent hair
coloring, a temporary color
rinse lasts only to the next
shampoo. And you don't have
to worry about color fading
because you can add fresh
color every time you shampoo.
