HOUSEKEEPING TAKES MORE THAN 30 MINUTES Mrs. Ferguson Says It’s the Everlasting Picking Up After a Family Which Takes Woman’s Time.
By Mrs. Walter Ferguson Some male high-binder calls attention to his ignorance by saying that arty woman who requires more than ihlrty minutes a day to keep her home In apple pie order is lacking a efficiency. He divides the labor of the house nd has figured out just how many n'nutes each task should occupy. Thus, he gives us one and a half dnutes for a woman to pick up her iusband's garments, five minutes to traighten the sitting room, and ven minutes for washing dishes. Allows Nothing Ha allows nothing for the bathcom, one of the hardest jobs of the :vy, and evidently there are no chil-!-en in his family, as he does not Ter to them in this masterly expoion on housekeeping.

For the thore efficient the man, the more likely is he to have somebody around to do all the dirty work for him. He never mops the floors or washes the windows or dusts the furniture in his business office. He merely sits in his swivel chair and figures out how inefficient other folks are. Off Our Heads? The men think we are off our heads when we try to tell them anything about their business. But every mother’s son of them believes that he knows all there is to be known about ours. They think housekeeping only means the washing up of a few dishes, the making of a couple of beds, and the dusting

Cleaning the refrigerator, scrubbing the bath tub, airing the matteresses, mending he clothes, washing the baby's soiled linen, dusting the polishing the silver, cleaning out the kitchen pantry, sweeping the porches, waxing the floors, gathering up the laundry, and if there are husband and children in the family, the perpetual job of picking up, not once a day, but all day long, after them. Try It Out And these men who are so long on efficiency, why don’t they try it out in their own sphere? There is plenty of room for improvement in our governmental offices, our State houses, our legislative halls. There these marvelously efficient creatures have five men doing what one could do easily If he worked half as haird and long persistently a* the average housewife does every day of her life.

The errant husband, who lies to his wife is defeated before he starts, she wrote. “Men should not attempt lying. They are too profoundly serious in their attempt to be convincing. The good lie is the casual one, somewhat flippantly hung upon the conversation.’* NEW YORK —Stockings apparently will not be necessary in the bathing outfit which the women will wear on the local beaches this summer. Last yar lightly clad bathing girls wer6 haled to court. But this season has started with police over looking unstockinged limbs and onepiece bathtag suits. |

Later I met another fellow and married him some months later f like him very much, but it seems as if my heart would brrak for the first one. I have tried to forget him, but cannot. Now I have been away bom hint for four years, and do you think 1 will ever torgrt? I have a beaultfu! home, a esr and everythin?, but I can t forget the first one even though he doesn't work steadily and Is sickly. Now I hate to leave my husband and my home. What shall T do? BROWN EYES Are jou letting sympathy for th< first man sway you? The fact that lie io sickly and inefficient may appeal to your mavgrnal sense. To give him thought is disloyal to this last man. who has treated you so well. Ts you will keep your mind on this and endeavor to be fnir to him, it will help you to forget the other. It is most lii-ely simply false sentiment that keeps you in tills uneasy condition of thought. Decide that you are not going to play with these thoughts any further. If you firmly put them from you, they will gradually lose force. “Peggy L." is a young girl who wants to know, this "being such a modern age," if it would be all right to go on a little trip to another town with a young man of her acquaintance.
