Ir — t By FREDDYE S. HENDERSON FOR ANP Miracle Fabrics The day of miracles has not passed. At least that is the case as far as fabrics are concerned. With the advent of the new man made fabrics, the fashion industry is undergoing a metamorphosis if not a complete revolution. And the fortunate thing is that the cus tomer is reaping the benefits. For a long time rayon, the oldest of the man made fibers was looked upon as a sort of step-child -in the fabric picture. It took'a world war to awaken us to the versatility and beauty of it. For one reason, it was intro duced as artificial silk, which was I a mistake, for it neither looked like silk, nor did it have the i properties of silk. Naturally we! mere customers expected it to look like silk since it was supposed to be artificial silk. When it didn’t, we just plain didn’t like it. However, when the industry began to promote rayon as such it was appreciated and be came popular. Now a number of other man made fabrics are reaching mass acceptance, the most recent and talked of whidh is orion. It seems that orlon is God’s gift to the working class. The fact that it is < completely washable, won’t sag ] or stretch, holds pleats even when'; : wet, resists wrinkles and wears so ] long means that many fashions which were long considered lux-j ury fashions are now within the | reach of average pocketbooks. Take the matter of a white suit, i How many of us have not looked longingly at a white suit, wanted i to buy it, but decided against it because the cost of cleaning it after each wearing was prohibi tive? Or drooled over a white pleated skirt, but are afraid lhat it would have to be pressed after each sitting? Now with orlon we can have wonderful white suits and gor- j geous pleated skirts, because they ; can be washed out in an evening and dried and worn next morn looking good as new. Then there is millium, the won der fabric which makes a coat lin ing not just a lining but an insula tion, keeping out cold air, adding warmth without weight. Why there are even stain resistant fab rics, so you can just wipe off the finger prints that Junior might chance to get onto your handsome skirt. Truly, the day of miracles has not passed, I do not agree with I the rather skeptic fashion designer who said, “There is so much talk about miiacle fabrics, but as for me, I refuse to get excited until someone makes miracle mink.’* Miss Sampson l—■'■■■ ■. ■ Household Hints By Miss Mary Sampson 2811 S. 24 — 3-621& •ad Mrs. Odessa Johnson ISld 4 St. — 3-6701 Mrs. Johnson * ,. !
