Those oldfashioned kitchens had to
be scrubbed once a week and swept
every day, a cleaning task OF no small
proportions. There was a Big, fiat,
heavy table in one corner without a
knife-drawer and the pantries were
generally partitioned of in the most
awkward places possible; sometimes
in opposite corners, which required
travelling back and forth great many
times in fetch and carry process.
People seemed to live to fetch and
carry in those days. They carried
burdens Of considerable weight into
those big old-fashioned kitchens and
some of the packages were stored
there for future use. There was a
barrel of apples. bags OF potatoes and
a -four bin. all of which had to be
moved at cleaning time. The wood
