 Helen WattersOn Moody in the April Ladies Home Journal 'fIt is pre- cisely in her ability tel guard against this contingency that the housewife shows herse If not only a good eXecu- tive office. but as well a woman with
 ideals and a sense Of prOpOrtiOn-One who dces not forget that hOusekeep- ing is a means to hOme-making not an end in itself-that the most perfect administration of domestic matters will not make a family happy in whom the love and spirit of home do not dwell Hcme-not only a place to eat and sleep and work in, but a place to be happy in, a place to rest in and to be so0thed. a place in which. to love and be loved, a place for confdences, and counsel, and strengthening words, and hope and hea-tening. It is good thing. and a noble thing and a satisfying thing to De a good house keeper: there is no profession Of which and in which a woman can be so proud. and when so blessed in head and heart and hand as to be able to make and keep some of those real homes which is a little sunny spot OF green in the great desert Of the world if there is anything better than this in life I have not yet found it.
