TH i KITCHEN By Mrs. Christine Frederick, Pr its Anl Household Bffictency Bapert, Author: “Household Enginecring.”” HIL® certain groups and communities have set themselves on record as against “daylight saving,” no other law could be a greater boon to the housewife! The great problem of how to live on twenty-four hours a day and particularly how to condense housekeeping tasks Into an eight hour schedule can now be solved, at least for the summer season, No home motto is more true than this: “An hour in the morning is worth two in the afternoon,” and since “daylight saving” presents us with an extra morning hour, free of charge, we housekeepers head the ist of its boosters. The Cohastitution says, “‘all men are created free and equal,’ but we know perfectly well that this is not so, and that We are all slaves of our own limitations. Further, wé used to believe that “‘free air’ was no one's monopoly and that we all had an equal right to the ajr we breathe. Alas, radio development is bringing up the | joint of whether an individual will coantoiue to be able to use the air on @ free basis, without interference or permission from the authorities! In England or France or Germahy for example, no amateurs are permitted to put up wireless aerials, as the air belongs to and is controlled by the army, the navy and the Government, and some people are becoming con~ cerned whether it will still continue free in this country. ‘What in the world is free? Nothing but time! Rockefeller with all his millions cannot buy one minute more than the poorest day laborer. The richest business man in his super® office suite has not one more hour at his disposal than has the struggling clerk taking. a correspotidence course to fit him for a higher position.

Many roasts or pieces of meat can be pre-cooked in the morning hour for within fifteen minutes of the entire cooking time. Then in the evening it will take only this last quarter hour to reheat ready for serving. Many casserole dishes ate always best cooked several hours in advance as their flavors fhen “ripen.” Even green vegetables like string beans, spinach, asparagus can be boiled or steamed in the forenoon, removed to a serving platter, and require only a few moments’ re- heating in any preferred sauce, Sure- ly it is easier and much more cool to give the hour or hour and a half's ‘long cooking” to many foods very early in the housekeeping day than to leave the eftire cooking period until the evening supper hour when every woman wants to be dressed up eee a eee The trouble with getting a man all wound up to tell you something ta that afterward he takes so long to run down!

Only a dif- ference in spending their time! Doubtless Mrs. Jones plans her work on a schedule basis, does a certain thing at a definite hour each day, times her work and also provides a “rest period’? for herself. Daylight saving practically gives an additional extra hour to the house- keeper at that part of the day whe: she can utilize it most. Another hour gained in the cool of the morning! What possibilities it offers for hot weather housekeeping! ‘‘Daylight saving” automatically gives her that Most desired advantage—‘‘an early start.”’ Since cooking is a warm procedure at best, it is the one department of work which should be done at the coolest hour of the day, the earlier in the morning the better. Often women refuse to believe that they actually ean prepare and cook much of the evening meal in advance. But it can be done, and the advantages are the more pleasant refreshing conditions of the work, the fact that the paring, cleaning and generally messy Prepara- tions will be got out of the way and that often even the pots and uten- sils may be washed and laid back while.the housekeeper is wearing her work apron.

She married Charles Howard, later the Earl of Suffolk, who treated her with great brutality.

When she left court after several years the daughters of George TI. are said to have lamented the fact that thenceforward their mother would have to spend so many hours in the company of their stupid royal father.

Those that are harmless they love and respect; toward those that may hurt them they ‘know just how to act and so do not fear them.

Great scientists have said that even the wild beasts of the forest have be- come more ferocious because of man's persistent fight against them. ‘ If all children would be made to un~ dersfand that all Creation is instituted by one and the same Power and that that Creator demands fair treatment, it seems to me there would be no need for Be Kind to Animals Week."
