The Hnnnennaker

1t must be taken into consideration
that every successful homemaker is
necessarily a housekeeper-one who
keeps the house in the hollow of her
hand, 80 to speak. One whose eye
guards every detail of expenditure;
one whose heart and mind are CEN
tered in the identifying, guidance and
maintenance Of her stronghold. 1t
would be foolish to insist that every
housekeeper possess the rare and
beautiful gift of creating and evolving
a home, says Margaret. Anglin in Pic
torial Review. The housekeeper works
for her wages, oftentimes grudgingly;
the homemaker takes up her daily
tasks with inspiration. Her labor is
performed with love; and as believe
some poet has remarked, even the
sweeping OF a room may become
beautiful action.

ed the same loyalty as had been given
him.
