Fake Furs May Be Used Many Ways Fur look-alikes range from flat to fluffy, and can be used for a variety of dress and sports garments, Jo-Ann Pizzello, County Extension Agent, says. The fake furs are pile fabrics, made from a variety of synthetics - acetate, acrylic or rayon and have either a woven or knit back. The type of fur chosen will be a guide to the pattern used. The bulkier, deep-pile furs require a simpler design than the smooth pelt fabrics. In all cases, avoid eased seams. A raglan sleeve is easier to handle than "a set-in sleeve. ''With Nap" yardage requirements need to be used to determine the amount of fabric to buy, as fake furs are napped fabrics. Some of the fakes are washable, but most require dry cleaning, so read the hangtag. Make pattern alterations before cutting. Always use "With Nap" layout and for deep pile furs, the nap should run down. Work with the fabric spread out wrong side up and pin the pattern to the backing. With the bulkier fabrics, cut each pattern piece separately. Cut with sharp shears, but use a single edge razor blade for deep pile furs. Cut only the fabric backing, not the pile. Do not cut the pattern notches as they will fray, and make all markings on the wrong side of the fabric with tailor's chalk. Stitch the fakes with a long stitch, eight to 10 stitches per inch, using loose balanced tensiofi and mercerized cotton thread. 'Test stitch on a scrap of fabric. Stitch in the direction of the nap and push the pile away from the seams. Hairs caught in the seams can be pulled out with a pin. Bulk can be eliminated by shearing the pile from all seam allowances, and by slashing through the center fold of all darts and pressing them open. Seams should be finished in unlined garments. To press, use fingers where possible. Press with an iron and steam on a needle-board or several layers of terry cloth towels. Remember to use the synthetic setting on the iron. Leather and leather-look fabrics are a compliment to the fur fabrics and make attractive bound buttonholes. The fake furs also can be used as linings for a special touch of luxury in an otherwise plain coat, Miss Pizzello adds. Sewing the fake furs is not difficult, and the seamstress need not be limited by the conventional use of fur. She can let her imagination be as wild as the fabric. \ Shari Swayne High School Spotlight The ancestors of Shari Swayne came from Switzerland, and it is her dream to travel through that country, perhaps locating relatives. Shari. the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Lee Ray, was born in Shelton on June 5, 1953. She has an older sister, Pam, " who is married, and two younger sisters. Debbie is 13 years old and Leanne is nine. Her brother, Danny, is 15. In her junior year as well as this her senior year, Shari has been a member of the Future Homemaker of America. She also belongs to the Pep Club and to AFS. She is chairman of the Bluebird committee for FHA, and a member of Walther League in the Mt. Olive Lutheran Church. Art is her favority subject, with business law, business math, civics, advanced typing and shorthand as also-rans. She plans to attend a business school after her graduation from high school. Miss Swayne likes sports, and was a participant in the Powder Puff Football. As a spectator she has a preference for basketball. She sews and she enjoys swimming. She has a dog and a cat. For a year she has been a part-time employee of Miller's Department Store. I men ell she or doesn't she? is, does she get a "shot" ~amunize her from the tragic consequences of measles: does she sit tight and hope the disease will somehow be some other way? the case of many American ~r~, only their doctors know for sure. The facts are that U.S. Public Health Service officials are predicting German measles - rubbella - will be eradicated by 1973. And they expect to reach that goal in a campaign aimed at innoculating children - 60 million of them - by 1973. We wish all of our customers "ili; ii~;i ili !iii~:: ~;; i;: iii}iii:iiiiiiill i:ii~!~"? a very SPECIAL! But why children and not women? According to medical authorities, if you prevent the disease in children, adults won't be likely to come into contact with it. To date, 20 million children between the ages of 3 and 10 have been vaccinated. Still, rubella remains a principal cause of miscarriages and birth defects in the United States. And there is no vaccination campaign specifically for women of child-bearing age who are justifiably concerned about the disease. So, what's a girl to do? She should, says the Health Insurance Institute, talk things over with her physician. He'll tell her that many women are not being directly vaccinated because doctors fear they could inadvertently cause a woman who may be pregnant and not know it, to contract the disease. Of course, under the proper circumstances most women who want the vaccine may have it. The Public Health Service puts it this way: "Pregnant women should not be given the vaccine, and immunization of females of child-bearing age should not be undertaken unless a physician determines that the person is susceptible, not pregnant, and will not become pregnant for two months following vaccination."

LOWREY RENT or BUY on Eos¥ Terms Johnny's Music Box 205 Cola 426-4302 resulted from the last epidemic of German measles - also called three-day measles -in 1964. Besides the heartache, there is a dollar cost which is estimated at $2 billion. Because German measles runs in cycles, there could be another epidemic in 1971-73. The hope behind the child vaccination program is to minimize its effects. Although the suffering caused by the disease cannot be measured, the Institute said, many families are helped with the financial aspect of the problem through health insurance which pays for treatment of youngsters born with defects because of the disease. Rubella infection of the pregnant woman may result in her child being born with congenital heart disease, mental retardation, deafness or cataracts - if it survives birth. The Federal government began its 50 million vaccination campaign last summer to try to end the problem. Voluntary and private business organizations including the National Center for Voluntary Action and many of the nation's largest health insurance companies have been participating in an informational program to advise the public of the value of inoculations.
