MAKE ALL WORK, HER HOME PLAN Careful Plans and No Waste Mean Efficiency, Says Housemistress. Kditor's Note; Mrs. Lillian Gilbrrth, author of this articlo on household nianaffement. is the mother of eleven children and with Herbert Hoover, one of thi* two honorary members of the Society of Industrial Engineers. Her expert guidance to efficiency for ,houa - keepers 19 timely as National Child Health day approaches. Another of her articles will follow. BY LILLIAN GILBRETH For NEA Service National health must start with mother in the home. It is for that reason that I am going to set down a few facts about the way in which I have reared a family of eleven children and pursued a career at

the same time. In doing It, 1 had many advantages and three principles. The c h i e fadvantage was Frank Gilbreth, my husband, a human dynamo intensely interested in-every problem of the home. He was first a contracting engineer and afterward an autohority in scion-

tiflc management. I began to study engineering on my honeymoon, at his suggestion, and it was the principles I worked out with him that made everything possible. Had Good Health ( I must confess, of course, that I had another tremenduos advantage in that I have never had any health problem to contend with. My children and 1 have always been superbly well. As for the three principles: The first thing any housekeeper must do to obtain an efficient household is to get the active cooperation of everybody concerned —husband, relatives, children and servants. Second, she must ho able to plan expertly, to study the technique of eaCh household task and organize tlie work. Finally, she must eliminate waste at every possible point. * Husband Interested My husband happened to be interested from the beginning. Most men will have to be interested by their wives. That is not hard if you have the right altitude. Men love to plan and Wo women need a man’s brain in the organization of our households. We’ve got to get husbands to regard their homes as something more than refuges. They must wish the home run as efficiently as a business. And they will, if women, instead of resenting all suggestions, invite them to share the management. Everybody Pulls An efficient/home is a cooperative enterprise with everybody pulling strong for its success. The cook, if there is one, can be trained to plan meals and buy according to a fixed budget. She will be far more interested if she lias responsibility. In the same way, every mother ought to teach her children household tasks. It is good for them to learn to do a thing just right and by and by they will do a great portion of tlie housework. Teaching takes time, but it saves time in the end. CHAPTER DINNER The Alpina chapter of the International Study arid Travel Club will hold a dinner Tuesday at 6 p. m. at the College tea room, 2630 College Ave. KID PARTY Miss Florence Kleiner, 1739 Fletcher Ave., will be hostess for a kid party for guests and members of Sigma Phi sorority, Friday at 8 p. m.

Hu V HA Service J CAMBRIDGE, Mass., April 7.—A mother of seven-year-old twins, who I does her own washing, ironing and baking, lias enough time and beauty to he a consistent winner In beauty j contests. Her exercise comprises boxing and housework, and her beauty recipe Is lots of sleep. Mrs. Rosa Regan, 26, for the third year, has been chosen as “Miss Cambridge." Each time she lias i competed with half a hurtdred girls l and taken the title right out of the i hands of rivals who seldom touch ' dishwater and who have few worries greater than the slant of their ' marcel. No Bridge or Candy I". Miss Cambridge,” or rather "Mrs. [Cambridge," to all appearances is the old-fashioned girl, with a good share of modenf vitality. Her hair_ is long. She does not play bridge. She doesn't eat candy. Though she has n creditable soprano ; voice, and sings at entertainments, a*' isn't stage struck. But what stamps her as truly oldi binned is this —she loves housework! "Housework keeps me young." Mrs. Regan said. "I'm busy nearly • very minute. This keeps my weight down and gives me plenty of exercise." A boxing match with her husband also comes in on the exercise program now and then. •Mrs. Regan is up at 6:30 every morning. She prepares breakfast for tiie twin boys and her husband, Danel Regan: sends the boys off to school and the husband to the office; cleans the house, washes, bakes cookies or works in her flower garden: gets lunch. This over with, there's marketing, and then dinner to prepare. An Afternoon Nap But each afternoon there must bo • i one-hour nap. This it is what accounts "for any beauty I have,” said Mrs. Regan. "If women simply would relax for an hour a day, they would retain much of their youth and energy.’* Mrs. Regan sleeps eight hours i neh night. Cups and cfps of tea, at all times of the day, and a glass of milk before going to bed are the only liquids she drinks, save, perhaps a glass of water a day. No diet rules are posted above her kitchen sink. MYs. Regan bakes anil eats apple pies. She has no particular fear of starches, and she does not recognize any strict limitations regarding food. She is an expert Charleston dancer, and goes dancing about once a week.

In 1922, when the twins, Stanley and Warren were but two years old, Mrs. Regan won her first "Miss Cambridge” title. She won again in 1926 and 1927, Mrs. Regan is five feet five inches tall, weighs 125 pounds and looks like the big sister of her two sons.
