As I watched, an unfinished machine was wheeled to the worker's side, Instantly the man lifted a handful of screws, then picked up this tool, then that, all from the boxes in front of him, and with almost magic speed added new parts to the machine and finished it. Not once did the man move to get a needed tool; not once did he have to cross the room to pick up his serews or bolts or parts, Ah! but how do we women often wark? Don’t we walk twenty feet to fetch the frying pan, or the bow! to mix the biscuits in, when we could just as easily have hung the pan near the stove or placed the bowl on a shelf above the table and so picked them up without walking a step? Why do we run clear across the kitchen to get a bread knife when it could always hang above the board where we cut bread? Why go rummaging in a distant lated Equ drawer for a can opener when we can hang it near the sink and near the refusé pail where we open cans and throw them away?

MORAL: A Woman Gets a Night OFF When Her Hus- band (and the Children) Take a Night OUT! BRAVE, brave “lady trom Philadelphia” Has sounded @ battle cry of freedom for her sex! “Women,” she says, “de: off once in a while; A wife should devote two nights a week to her club or other interests he average husband takes HIS nights off without any question What is sauce for the gander should be sauce for the goose!” And then she adds~all too truth fully, alas!— “But it is difficult to convince hus- bands of this!" Isn't it, though?

G'bye, dear!” (Business of sliding into coat and out of front door, as she talks). My word—IF Mrs. John attempted to put over such a programme, Who would remind the maid to mix the morning buckwheat cakes, af- ter finishing the dinner dishes? Who would restrain the children from occupying father’s armchair? Who would hear Dorothy's spelling lesson, , “nd mend the rip in her glove, which she must wear to school next day? Who would help little Junior with his: first-year Latin And find something in The Evening World for his {‘current events” class, And end the evening quarrel as to which child shall have first chance at the “funnies,” And umpire the evening game of par- chesi authors? Who would send the children to bed? HILDREN who object to having C their teeth brushed will think it great sport to do the brushing themselves. Even a two-year-old will do this most effectually. At first the little hand will require the guidance of Mother's hand, but this can be made a little play and will not be ob- jected to, Use the small sized brush for beginners. Impress upon children the importance of cleaning the teeth and the fact that it must be done reg- ularly. Of course the mother must oversee the brushing until the habit is firmly established and the work is properly done. While the cleaning is in progress teach the child the pos- sible danger to the teeth from ove indulgence in candy and biting hard substances such as puts or opening knife blades, biting string, &c., with the teeth.

Who would share John’s indignation over the prospect of bonus taxes? Who would answer the telephone seventy times seven? Who would “fix up a snack” when the Smiths, or the Joneses, ar the Robinsons drop in? Who would make sure the door of the refrigerator is closed after John's last visit to it? Oh, it's all very well to talk about a night off for wives, But I should like to know how any one of them can spare the time! Not theirs the eight hour day, Or even—as somebody has pointed out—the sun-to-sun schedule.

In- variably these children are over- dressed and sleep in close rooms. Their clothing should not be burden- fome.
