PRESENT CHEQUE FOR RETARDED CHILD Mrs. Sophie Arnold, a local hairdresser, is seen present- ing a cheque to Mrs. W. R. Wilson, president of the Osh- awa and District Association for Retarded Children. The funds were acquired by the Durable, Washable Plastics Make Housekeeping Easier By ELEANOR ROSS The lady of the house can really be a lady in the house these days. Though her decor- ating tastes be as elegant as Marie Antoinette's, she can be just as royally free from house keeping drudgery. Her secret is anything but a full - time maid. It's durable, washable plastic! This versatile meterial can be as practical as a kitchen canister or can look as luxurious as the finest dam- ask upholstery. No matter how it is used, plastic takes much of the work out of housework. Spots, stains and other soil are easily wiped off its: surface with a sudsy sponge. Using plastic cuts down on constant refinishing of walls and furnishings and on the fre- quency of replacing accessories such as window-shades, uphol- stery and many other items. of the house.
