Ruffles Add
Feminine Touch
Ruffles attract attention this
season, adding feminine tou-
ches to sumne r fashions.
"After all, ruffles are very
feminine--whether wide and
smocked or in several layers
of gathered eyelet, " points
out Mrs. Vivian Simmons.
"This season finds them edg
ing necklines, sleeves, collar
and hems, " the clothing spe-
cialist with the Texas Agricul-
tural Extension Service, Texa:
ASM University System, notec .
"When sewing at home, re-
member that ruffle style deter-
mines the application method
used.
"Single ruffles offer the
choice of sewing them in the
seam or directly on the gar-
ment. "
Double ruffles, on the other
hand, must be sewn directly
on the garment. Other wise,
the desired "double effect" is
lost, Mrs. Simmons explain-
ed.
"When making single ruffles
cut fabric two or three times
longer than the area decorated1

ivirs. Gary Brinaman was

"Sew strips together to make
one continuous piece. Before
gathering, make a narrow
hem along one edge--it's
much easier to handle at this
point.
"Along the other edge,
machine baste two rows of
long basting stitches.
"To achieve evenly-spaced
gathers, first divide both the
ruffle and area to which it wil
be attached into fourths. Then
gather ruffle to fit area, one
fourth at a time, and pin.
"Stitch ruffle to right side
of garment and finish with a
f acing.
"Wide ruffles—and those of
sheer fabrics--are more attrac-
tive with dktra fullness, " Mrs.
Simmons added. To give them
additional fullness, she recom-
mended cutting them longer
than the suggested two or three
lev'rit~hs.

Vacation Bible School Par-
ents night was observed Sun-
day night at the Dorchester
Baptist Church.
The program was presented
by those attending during the
week. Bro. Bill Robinson
showed slides of each depart-
ment, taken during the week
An ice cream social followed.
Average attendance was 64.
Social Security
Students 18 and over who
get monthly social security
checks will soon be getting an
attendance reporting card that
has nothing to do with how
many classes theymight have
cut, according to Gus Jones,
social security manager in
Sherman.
A reporting card is mailed
by the Social Security Admin-
istration to each student bene-
ficiary about three months be-
fore the end of the school
year. The student should re-
turn the card to social security
as soon as possible, Jones said.
"The information on the atten
dance report helps us decide
if the student can continue to
get monthly checks, " Jones
said. "Any delay in returning
the reporting card could mean
a delay in payments. "
Full-time students who are
18 and over are unmarried can
get monthly checks from so-
cial security until they are 22
if a parent gets social security
payments or if a parent has
died after working long enougl
under social security. Under
recent changes in the social
security law, a student who
has not earned an undergradu-
ate degree can continue to get
social security payments throu
gh the end of the semester
or quarter inwhich he reaches
22. If the student's school doe:
not use the semester or quarter
system, payments can contin-
ue until he completes the cour
se he is taking or two months
after he reaches 22, whichevei
comes first.
"More than 590,000 student!
in colleges , high schools, anc
trade schools get $65 million
a month from social security,
Jones said.
Any student in the Cooke-
Fannie-Grayson County area
who needs help with the report
or information about his bene-
fits can call the Sherman So-
cial Security Office at 810 N
Travis. The telephone number
is 893t4301. Office hours
are 8:30 a.m. to 4:45 p.m.
