Anyone- with rummage to contribute may leave it, at the this afternoon. noon. L may be continued over a long pericd of time if necessary. The bandage does not stick to the hair of the legs and shaving of the hair is not necessary before it is ap- plied, Furthermore, the bandage may be easily changed. . # s % Treating Leg Below Knee N treating the leg below the knee, the bandage is started be- hind the toes and is wound up to the knee, covering the foot, heel and calf of the leg. If the pressure is applied evenly, pain is relieved almost at once. If the pressure is top..great, the pain will be in- ergased. In such instances the baritiage should be released. If not enough pressure is used, the pain present will not be relieved, and the bandage should be put on more tightly.. It is suggested that the bandaging be carried out up to the knee in'all sprained ankle cases, even though there are no symptoms indicating trouble in the upper part of the leg. Since the swelling of the tissues disappears rapidly with this type of bandaging, it is suggested that they be changed at least every other -day. The patient: should walk as much as possible imme- diately after the bandages are put on, in order to zet the fullest ben- efits from the treatment. If the treatment is early, the swelling of the tissues may be prevented. An injured ankle heals promptly and phlebitis may be kept from dereloping. woo@ Bundesen will Tomorrow, _ Dr. discuss \Angina Pecto PLANS BOOK TEA Court Ella Rita Schedutes Second Annual Event Book reviews will feature the second annual book tea of Court Ella Rita of- Baldwin, Catholic Daughters of America, in St. Christopher's hall, tomorrow at 2:45 o'clock.

More For Your Money Men's sports shirts-intended for casual wear somewhat on the dress up side, not for active sports --are more than ever in the fash- ion- class this season. But there is some really good news to be found among the \dry clean only\ labels-some of these rayon shirts are easily washable. The frequent dry cleaning that such shirts need in summer add up to quite an item of expense before the season is over, of course, Therefore, don't be faint hearted in your search for truly washable rayons. You may have to put up quite a hunt, for the supply is limited. These soap-and-water rayons are labeled washable-even guar- anteed to come through launder- ing safely if directions are fol- lowed.

When finishing on the right side, use.2 press cloth on collars, front fac- ings, pockets, and cuffs-wherever there's a double thickness.
