By VIVIAN BROWN
AP Feature Writer
You can do your own steam
♦ pressing at home by learning a
few professional tricks. One of
the new chemically treated steam
pressing cloths like your tailor
uses are available to make your
pressing job simpler.
Here are the professional tricks:
The Jacket: The four most dif
ficult sections of the jacket are:
collar, front edges, sleeves and
bustline.
Collar: Place on edge of board
or use small sleeve board. Press
lapels across. Distribute any ful

1 fore very stretchy. Never press
collar from shoulder to shoulder,
or from side to side. Do not pull
collar while pressing as you will
make it s4and away from neck
i line.
Buslline and Top of Sleeves:
Any curved part of suit and bust
line should be pressed over a
padded pressing mit to keep
curves in place. This avoids flat
tening out or stretching of cloth.
This same method is proper for
top of sleeve.
From Edges: Most jackets have
tape stitched inside lining at
edges to keep front of garment

The Skirt: Pin or baste pleats
in place, and press from hem to
waistline Use a press mit under
curved portion of hipline. At
j waistline, make sure you are not
'stretching the belt by pulling it.
Press Crosswise. If necessary,
I press Skirt lightly several times,
, rather than once very hard, as
j light pressing will aid in keeping
' seams from showing through and
making a ridge show from out
side.
Freshly pressed suits should be
brushed to bring 'he nap up, then
hung up to cool and dry before
being folded or worn.
WILD BOAR ON WAY
TO BARBECUE PIT
The final story has been written
of the pet wild pig which Charle
son of the late Pe'er and Mrs.
Laura E. Esch, of Nome, has writ
ten about. The boys many time
had planned to have abarbecue
of this fellow which they bar
nursed since birth, but grew so
of this fellow which they had
‘he heart to kill him. He rooted
their clothes in the mud, but
when he came t othem squaling
vociferously, they nevertheless
always stopped to pick off the
ticks which were pestering him.
When "Grunt” heard 'he boys
grind coffee, he would stick right
there until the dr nk was ready;
and demanded cream and sugar,
too, if you please. All of a sudden,
the boys had a hurry up notice to
pack for relocation on another is
land. “Grunt” was too big 'o
pack on their backs and so with
regret they turned him loose to
forage for himself, hoping that
their mascot who had provided
so much amusement for them,
would be well treated by new
comers. He had at least broken
the monotony of daily routine by
his affection for his soldier
friends.
MESSAGES RECEIVED
BY LAURA E. ESCH
Two of the messages grea'ly
enjoyed by Laura E. Esch. for
merly of Nome, were those from
Anna Hall Strong, wife of Alas
ka's late Governor J. F. A. Strong
and J. J. McGreal, now 89 and
living at Burbank, Calif. In his
earlier years he was with the po
lice force at Nome. She also re- !
ceived a marvelous letter from her
son, Charles H. Esch, C. M. 2-c,
telling of the fun he had with the
Christmas packages he received
from her and his sister. He even

had a Christmas tree sent across
the big blue waves by his family.
The camp mascot. “Grunt,” the
tamed wild boar) now weighs 98
pounds arid is traveling fas talong
the route to ‘he barbecue pit.
Charles gets up at 6 a. m. and
lights go out at 10 p. m , so the
day is a long one for the boys
“over there” but there is no
squawking about i‘. "We'll never
let the folks at home down,” he
writes—and we say the same back*
