I) EM IN ISC E N T of the
11 l!)30’s very feminine fash-
ions, yet new as now, this coat-
dress is a joy to sew. Long,
lean and low waisted, the style
features a box pleated skirt
that moves gracefully as you
walk or sit. The popular fly
front conceals a flexible Talon
nylon-coil Zephyr Zipper clos-
ing, a built in aid to unclut-
tered style, soft lines and
step-in convenience. This stur-
dy Talon zipper is easy to sew
in place and takes much less
time than making button
holes, sewing on buttons or
snaps. The Butterick pattern,
4762, is available in misses’
sizes.

FOIL WILL PROTECT PANS—There’s one chore
nobody likes in camp. That’s cleaning charred pots
and pans.
Here’s how to prevent it: Just wrap the bottoms
with aluminium foil.
When you’re finished cooking, throw away the foil,
and the bottoms of your camping utensils will be as
clean as before you started cooking.
