Tips To Teens
Back to school shopping time is
a good time to sell your teen ager
on the idea of clothes that go into
the washing machine, and that
need no ironing.
Such clothes are invariably eco

from the standpoint of time, or
money, or both. And < as your
daughter gets older and does more
of her own shopping, shell be wise
in the ways of fabrics and styling.
She'll learn to look for easy wash-
ables first J
