IN THE REALM WHERE WOMAN REIGNS
KEEPING HOUSE WITH THE HOOPERS
(The Hoopers, an average American * Tamil; of fire, living in a suburban town, on a limited Income, will tell tM readers of the Dally Time* how the many present-day problem* of thp home are solved by working on the bndget that Mrs. Hooper baa evolved and found practical. Follow them daily In an Interesting review of their home Ute rid learn to meet the conditions of the hjgh coat of living with them.) FRIDAT. TThen the group of women, interested in the study of home economies, who were meeting with Mrs. Hooper on Friday afternoons, assembled on the sbady front porch, Mrs. Owen began: "I've tried out the time schedule that w# mapped out last week and I find that it suits my purposes admirably; but that I shall have to get used to it. before It is really effective. I can readily see." T attempted to work on it also,” said Mr*. "Wright, “and I found that I could manage all right, if it were to be used for a straight daily schedule but when it came to fitting In the special weekly basks I had trouble." •'That is always the difficulty at first," admitted Mrs. Hooper, "and the days that rts hardest to adjust are usually Tuesday whan the washing has to be dons In the morning, Saturday when extra cooking ls‘necessary, and Monday when the general cleaning of the house disturbs the regular routine.” “I seee the advantage of rnttlng the washing on Tuesday," said Mrs. Wright “because it leaves Morning free to clean up after the general confusion of Sunday tnd to properly prepare for the laundering of the clothes which was never passible when it had to be done Sunday night. That Is one change that I shall adopt at once In my own rlan of work. “I always do a little more cooking on Monday also," said Mrs. Ilooper, “so ♦ hat I will have very little preparation for meals on Tuesday when so much of the morning has to be taken up with the washing. “Another thing that helps In the adjustment of the special weekly tasks so that they will not interfere with the necessary dally routine." continued Mrs. Hooper. “Is to group certain pieces of work so that they may really be done together. For insUthce, during the period that we have marked for washing the lunch dishes the vegetables for dinner and the dessert may often be prepared or cooked and watched while the china la being washed and wiped.” "The ice box Inspection and meal planning that are placed right after breaktost," observed Mrs. Campbell, “also saves ! time ’ater In the day when the meals are to be actually prepared.' “I concentrate my shopping and marketing Into one day a week.' Mrs Hooper went on, “but if any of you find that allowing for it three times a week Is a better arrangement you will have to adjust your afternoons to meet the demand It will mean cutting down your rest period and time for mending and sewing.* “Another thing I noticed, Mrs Hooper, in this schedule you outlined is that definite tasks were taken up one after another in regular order. That was In-

tentional, I suppose, “but I find It won't work lg my house.” “That is a thing that each one of yon will have to change to suit her own needs,” replied Mrs. Hoper. “Routing the dally tasks depends often upon the construction of the honse, especially as far as the cleaning Is concerned. The plan of your house will have to be studied In order to eave time and steps. For instance, you start from where your tools are kept, and, beginning from that point, work right through the house, or else gather your <ools and proceed with farthest point and work back. This prevents alt tracking In and ont and saves endless walking.” “The thing that hasn't been taken care of In this schedule," observed the bride timidly, “Is the unexpected task, or perhaps I mean all the little things that have to be done that are so time consuming and that always seem to upset any regular plan to do work within special given periods.” , “What are you thinking of, for instance?” inquired Mrs. Hooper. “Well, emptying and cleaning the garbage pail for one thing,” replied the Hrlde. “That always takes time and i there must be some period of the day when it would be best to take care of that. I do It any time—sometimes after j lunch and sometimes after dinner and I often I forget It until the last thing at ! Right and then rush out and empty It into the receptacle for the garbage man and after that leave it to be washed out until morning.” “I empty mine ones a day." volunteered Mrs. Campbell, “right after the luncheon dishes are finished and the vegetables are prepared for dinner. Then I wash It and set it to air until night and whatever scraps go into it after dinner can remain there until it Is emptied and cleaned the next day. I used to be always stopping some piece of work to empty the garbage can nntll I made that set rule." “Another thing that breaks Into my time,” observed Mrs. Owen, is the calling of tradesmen. I am constantly coming downstairs to speak to the iceman or the groceryman or the laundryman. They seem to be always knocking at my back door." “That Is probably your own fault,” said Mrs. Hooper, “because you can plan definitely when you want them to come and insist on their coming at no other time. The trouble Is that most of us let the Iceman and the grocery man corns 1 around every day at any time Just to ask us if we want anything. Instead of ordering at a definite time and insisting on deliveries when you expect them." "Another thing that I know saves time and that will prevent upsetting a schedule is to keep a supply of change in the kitchen and net have to be constantly running upstairs for one's purse," added the Brdie. “This type schedule that we have planned, with a few Individual alterations will fit tbo needs of all of us," concluded Mrs. Hooper, “hut when the club takes up the subject wo will work out schedules for the family with a small bahy, with Its naps and bathing and airing to be taken care of, and the family with

PUSS IN BOOTS JR. By David Cory 1 Now, I hope you remember what happened in the last story. How the big immense white elephant told little Puss Junior to close his eyes and make a wish, adn when he opened them he would find himself In the land where tie wished to be. Well, Puss, did, you know, and when he opened his eyes he found himself in a mulberry tree In Japan. And there were other strange trees, too —camphor trees and cotton trees, orange trees and pomegranate trees; and, oh, yes, there were persimmon trees. And when Puss looked about him still more lie saw rice and tea and sweet potatoes growing in the fields. "This Is a pretty country," said Puss to himself, and he slid down the tree and started off along the road, bordered with camellias growing In the hedges. And pretty soon along came a stork hitched to a rickshaw, which Is a sort of twowheeled carriage, yon know. “Jump In,” said the tall, long-legged stork. So Puss got In, and away they went, past the rice fields, where the great big Buffaloes drew the plows; past little towns and villages, where swallows and turtle doves sat on the roofs of the houses, and funny bantams, with tufts on their necks, strutted around on the ground, and pheasants, too, with wonderful golden tails. Ands for little rice birds, there were Just hundreds and hundreds of them, "Where are we going, please, Mr. Japanese Stork?" asked little Puss Junior. "To Nagasaki a seaport town,” answered the great stork. So on they hurried. and after a little while they met gome little ponies with straw boots on, carrying load# of tea and rice over the mountain to the sea. “They are going to Nagasaki, too,” said the stork. “How soon will wo be there? asked Pus#. "Very soon," answered the stork, and pretty soon they reached the top of the mountain. Then they stopped and looked

sown, and there wee the sea before them. And all around were beautiful green hills covered with asalea and wiitaria, sad the sea was a beautiful blue sea, with Junks on it that had square White sails. “"We shall have to cross over a little bit of that sea to get to Nagasaki,” said the stork. “Nagasaki la on an island.’’ “But who will ferry ns over?” asked Puss. But the stork did not answer. And when he came to the waters' edge he blew on a silver whistle, and pretty soon one of the Junks took them across the sea to the Inland of Kiushul.

WslL ea soon as they landad, the stork once mors lifted the shafts of the rickshaw hud pushed his cheat against the bar and off they went again. And the wind came from the sea so softly and the rickshaw swayed back and forth so gently that pretty soon little Puss went fast asleep.
