Washing Walls Good As New Decorations
Autumn brings housecleaning thoughts as civilian goods are curtailed for war needs. Wash walls and woodwork to restore beauty, using soap jelly and rags, starting bottom up to avoid streaks, with ceilings washed before walls if painted. This time consuming task boosts home morale.

Taut Sheet Makes For Better Rest
Instructional note on improving sleep quality for workers in hard labor jobs through taut sheets and snug pillow cases. Emphasizes clean bedding, proper sheet tension, and a cooling, comfortable sleep environment for better rest.
Wedding Dresses For Later Wear
The piece advises choosing a wedding gown that can be reused or repurposed. It notes that usable styles let the dress become a negligee, dinner dress, or be dyed for future wear. Satin is suggested for smart winter wear and converting into a Sunday dress.
Fall Accessories Highlight Hats and Fur Styles
Accessories dominate the season with triangle scarfs in bright hues and leaf edged sequins worn over fur coats. Muffs bags and beaded chokers join gloves and a new little miss milkmaid silhouette with a high crown. Berets gather at the crown and forward to complement fur hats, while inspiration from Chinese designs shapes many hats. A note warns castle bean weed, or blodder pod, harms livestock and should be mowed to stop seed spread.
