    é ee / G YU / ® NN Sprinkling and Folding When dry, sheets should be sprinkled lightly and folded for ironing. The generally accepted manner is in fourths, lengthwise, first bringing the selvages © together. Then in fourths crosswise. Pillow cases should be turned right side out be- fore they are sprinkled. Ironing With both sheets and pillow cases, the greatest care should be taken in ironing the hems and any embroidery. The embroidery should be 1roned on the wrong side. The sheet is folded and ironed in fourths. The pillow case is ironed in thirds with only two creases. Begin to iron pillow cases at a closed corner. This will result in greater smoothness. Iron from the side seam across the case, gradually working to the open end.
