TERRY TOWELLING TEA CLOTHS
Brightness In The Kitchen It is becoming popular in Britain now to dry the dishes on large tea cloths made of terry towelling. These are printed with amusing designs in brilliant colours. The cloths, made in top quality absorbent towelling, not only dry dishes quickly, but because they are lint-free, they are just as suitable for glassware. Whenever a reluctant husband is being gently urged towards the kitchen sink by his wife, one of these towels should help her cause. It might be the “Poor Fish” design, showing a fish about to cope with underwater crockery while his late guests jubilantly leave to go home; 6r the “Be My Guest” design would be suitable, for this shows a good-tempered guest (complete with apron) before, a pile of dirty crockery, while the words beneath invite him to “Make Yourself At Home.” The manufacturers are as determined to bring brightness and gaiety into the bathroom as into the kitchen. Sets of terry towels, printed with posies of red roses, range from hand to bath sizes. The towelling is very absorbent, the towels luxuriantly large in all ranges and colours are fast Boiling, in fact, seems to make the colours brighter and not a vestige is removed in the wash.
