FROM WOMAN'S
POINT OF VIEW

Procrastinati0n Is a common fault,
find, and the only way TO tight it is to
do a task when brought face to face with
it. The letter which is laid By is seldom
answered. and the bit Of mending, which
meant no more than ten or fifteen min
utes at the beginning, grows into d
mountain of care which bears heavily
upon the conscience.
A busy woman never sees the end OF
her duties, of course. for fresh ones enter
every time the door IS opened. But when
she is wise she marshals them into line
ana disposes Of Them in order. If there
is good reason for jumping one for
ward she loses no time in thinking about
il. The woman who works without sys-
tenn takes the task that catches and
fixes her rowing eye. but she does not
permanently forget the others which are
lurking in corners and closets, in boxes
and bureau drawers.
When we work by system we have no
superfiuous articles about US. We buy
furniture and clothes and tTinkets "a
we find use for them, and do no hoard
ing When we work at random the re-
suits are ragged. Notwithstanding the
outlay OF time and strength. There are
always holes 10 be hHed-gaping ones,
scmetimes-and a woman may be eX-
cused for feeling that her burdens are
heavy. AS a matter OF fact, the women

results in work are women whom / meet

In sewing unanswered letters, piles Of
visiting cards. and heaps OF unopened
magazines. she made a resolve which
nobody expected her TO keep. She would
divide her day so that the work and
play would alternate. She began al the
bottom and took her tasks as they ap-
peared. the weekly mending first. be-
cause the garments must be put away.
and two letters each day from the pile
until it disappeared. In the afternoon
she planned calls for alternating days
and reading for whatever evenings were
spent at home without visitors. Prob
ably she has never reached the end, be
cause life is merry-go-round. but she
has found satisfaction. and that is worth
