There is an ocean of difference be-
tween housekeeping and homemaking.
One is a business. the other is an art
Many women make great successes in
the business who fail absolutely in the
art Their houses are perfectly kept;
every department is run with care and
exactness; there is never a failure to
meet demand. But 1t is not home
A home exists for the comfort, hap
piness and health of the family. There
is no department of housekeeping that
is not made to yield to the needs of any
member. There is never a crisis of
temper If a meal is late or the conven-
fence of a member demands a change
in the hour. A few minutes-yes, even
a number of minutes-spent in kindly
converse in the morning, the call of a
friend or the sudden desire for an
hours outing never seems to the home
maker a violation of the moral code.
Dust does not cause a nightmare or
disorder display which love and char
ity agree to call nervousness
Not things, but souls. are the objects
of the homemaker's care She values
peace more than system. happiness
more than regularity, content more
than work accomplished.
Yet with it all her home when she
touches perfection is the essence Of reg
ularity. 1t is this that makes home
making an art.
