Ladywood. By JEAN A WEEK-END in spring and you're going visiting? What clothes will you take? If you know what's on the social calendar, you can tote along the right duds. If you can't get advance information, you'll have to guess. But don’t take your entire wardrobe, It's bad form to arrive for a twoday stay with.a raft of luggag . = =

THE VERY most you'll need {s the clothes you travel in, plus three other outfits. On city week-ends, it's wise to take evening clothes if you have them. Your tuxedo, Joe, and don't forget to include all the fixings. - A simple dinner dress, Jane,

HEADING for the country, use your judgment about formal equipment, but do include a pair of slacks and a sport Jacket or sweater. In both city and country, your travel clothes can double for church on Sunday. A conservative suit, coat and hat is the best choice. Jane will want one or two fresh blouses and her prettiest afternoon date dress. Joe needs three clean shirts and a spare suit, if he’s not taking a tux. Adequate changes of underthings, of course, and you're all set.

"The Women Take Over—

Here Are the Feminist Goals for the Future: Kitchenless Homes and Government Nurseries

By DOUGLAS LARSEN, NEA Staff Writer WASHINGTON, Apr, 2—Let's sneak a look at the American

woman's future lot in life.

Just as many women as men will be holding public office.

Maybe more.

There will be just as many women as men in business and industry. But all jobs will be divided into two or more parts so

the women can share them on written into union contracts along with the guarantee that a woman will get her job back after she has taken time off have a baby. ie Of course, there will be equal pay for equal work. All factories and big office buildings will have laundries for the women to wash their clothes during off minutes. And there will be miniature department stores available for shop-

ping. The government will provide nurseries where a mother can file her cMild while she tolls in gainful employment.

- » PUBLIC ® schools will offer courses to men on the responsibilities of marriage, fatherhood, and family life. Planned parenthood will be the accepted order of the day. The question of whether a married woman needs a job will never be raised when she looks for work. Her home will have no kitchen. Flood will either be delivered pre-cooked, or it will come up a dumbwaiter from a commercial kitchen in the basement of an apartment building. There will be no housework for her to do. Squads of specialists, one who only dusts, one who washes windows, one who makes beds, and so on, will race in and do the job in a few minutes. If she chooses not to handle the menial aspects of raising

her children there will be nurseries.

a part-time basis. This will be 2 » = DOES this sound a little fantastic? Don’t be so sure, brother.

One hundred years ago a

bunch of determined females got together at Seneca Falls, N. Y., and decided they wanted the right to vote, to hold property, to make con , to hold public office and a lot of other . The naive males of that time said they were fantastic; too. But the women got what they went after. And there's no reason to believe they won't get these other things they're after now. The new female goals came out of a conference sponsored by the Women’s Bureau of the Department .of Labor to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Seneca Falls meeting. While the Seneca Falls meeting a century ago featured woman's struggle for political freedom, today it appears that the American female is more interested in economic freedom. Delegates from trade .unions dominated the celebration conference. They were in dead earnest about wanting rights to part-time work, tax-supported day nurseries, and maternity rights, among other things. The bi st stumbling block, they cla, is the reluctance of male union officials to bargain for such goals. » # » . MRS. HUGH BUTLER, wife of a former Congressman, and Mrs. Edith M. Stern, a writer,

presented the case for streamlined homemaking. Mrs. Stern describes her domestic revolution this way: © “We need fewer kitchen gadgets and more services. And

10,000,000 ‘ women making 10,-*

000,000 baked potatoes is absurd. The endless procession of household chores is utterly distracting and unnecessary. * The mechanical is just the old-fashioned sp nning wheel in modern dress.” One delegate was bold enough to suggest that some women got creative satisfaction out of cooking. Mrs. Stern replied: “Baloney. The worst cooking done in this country is so-called home cooking. The fiction of home cooking being the best came about merely because the food is eaten in the comfort ‘and privacy of the home.” Unlike the Seneca Falls meeting, no formal declaration of goals was prepared by the delegates to the Washington conference. The idea is for the women to carry back all these ideas to the “grass roots” so all American women would know where they were headed. This, important final suggestion way tossed at the conference: “If we really get behind these things, won't be long before the government will need a men’s bureau to fight for their rights.” Zt She may have something there, brother,

GARDENING—

A Recipe for Vegetables And Fruit on City Lot

By MARGUERITE SMITH “A LITTLE piece of ground can save you a lot of money.” F. E. Rupkey, 1133 Linden St. speaks from experience. "A city lot, well managed, supplies the Rupkey family with vegetables the

mist of flowers in spring, productive in fall. “Apple trees are slow growers. To save space, plant peach trees between them while you're waiting for’ apples to bear,” says Mr. R. As for the straw-

berry patch they're starting, it's no trick at all to raise strawberry jam on a city lot. The Rupkeys’ small vegetable plot works overtime, too. For early spring use, rhubarb and

winter onions grow at the edge. -

In summer Missouri Wonder beans, “better than Kentuckys,” drape the fence. Lettuce huddles close to the beans. Radishes use the space between tomato plants. Bush beans chase early beets out of their rows. Parsnips, stored in the row all winter, dig easily almost any time, says Mr. Rupkey, when they're covered with leaves and a strip of heavy linoleum. » ” ” - THOUGHTS in front of those seed and plant counters: W. J, Uebelhack, 2610 E. 11th St. gladiolus hobbyist, considering a few more glad bulbs and wondering “whether my roses got winter killed. They're be‘side the driveway where water drains onto the bed.” (Raising a rosebed a few inches sometimes solves such “winter-kill-ing.” Mrs. Jesse Wakeman, 2149 Sugar Grove Ave, buving a plant-in-a-cage for a gift, “because I've got one at home with a little redbird on a stick in the midst of the philodendron and folks are always saying how pretty it is.” Mrs. J. O. Vanier, Sullivan, Ind, considering a packet of rosemary seed. “I've always heard it’s so gdod for seasoning and I like to raise perennials. Is it hard to raise from seed?” (Rosemary is slow to germinate but planted in mid-April, cover-

ed with burlap, it germinates well,

» . ¥ JUST FOR fun: Gamble with the weather. " Risk a scant planting of beets and carrots this week though it's two weeks too early. If luck’s with you, you'll be drooling over sugary baby beets and carrots long before your more virtuous neighbors. For a mouth watering treat ifn late June, start an early potato or two right now. While you're waiting for your “rice field” to dry off for planting, encourage seed potatoes to green sprout by covering with damp soil or peat moss in a light place indoors. Fertilizer: You can't go wrong using plenty of phosphate on your garden. It so slowly dissolves in soil moisture that, unlike potash and nitrogen, it neither will burn plant roots nor leach away.

Houseplants: Does too much or too little water do more harm to begonias, asks Mrs. Mary Beauregard, 1369 N. Ewing St. The fat water-stiff stems of begonias will keep the plant going, camel fashfon, on desert rations for some time. Better give too little water than rot the stem with too much.

Early April reminders—For mild sweet table onions, plant white sets. For winter keepers, use the yellow. . . . Uncover roses- on a cloudy mild day so tender new shoots get gradually used to light. . .-. Don't roll the lawn when ground is sponge-wet. Rolling then just packs soil around roots, squeezes out all the air they need.
