A Housewife Chats SensibIy.

Dear Sisters of the Social Corner:
1t has been some time since / have
been contributor to the Corner. but
/ have been enjoying your letters all
the time Now l imagine ! hear some
of the sisters say, lust returned from
her vacation" No. not a bit of it.
When I hear anyone say vacation [
don't know whether to laugh or cry,
but [ assure you l have wasted no time
in the shedding of tears because it is
my honest opinion that the majority
of the housewives and mothers in tho
rural districts have been doing about
the same as l have the past three
months. Baking. broling, Stewing,
washing and ironing, making preserves
and jelly with the making of a few
aprons and q suit or two for the chill
dren thrown in; even though we did
try to get the sewing all done before
the busy season Too busy to write,
but we could read a letter at a time,
perhaps. when the steak was broiling
or the pies browning.
Well, now the Vacations Are Over
1 for one feel as though I could draw
a. long breath and set the pace a lit
tie slower and am looking forward to
the long winter evenings when ] can
read my magazines that have been
laid aside almost without notice
through the busy summer months
Sisters please do not think | am
compla lining of my lot, for / would not
deceive you thus. I have enjoyed al
most every moment of this past sum-
nner though hard at work most OF the
time. I have enjoyed my three meals,
slept well at night and feel better now
than many who have had nothing to
think of but their own pleasure. I
have done much OF my work out OF
doors and have enjoyed the songs OF
the birds, the flowers and the sun
shine.
Now Sisters, before I close this
letter l want to sound note of warn
ing about closing your houses too
tightly. especially at night when the
colder weather comes. Neither can
YOU afford to be a fresh air crank II
YOU have delicate little children to
care for. Try to find happy lodg
ing place between the two. This is how
I manage after several years Of eX-
perimenting. Provide way of heat
ing the bed rooms I like a small wood
stove They are so easily shut off at
might and fire can be so quickly
started in the morning to warm the
rooms for the children's dressing.
When they are snugly tucked in their
beds and warmly covered. open the
window but be sure the bed is not
where the air will blow directly
on the little sleepers. I am confident
that we save much more every year IN
doctors bills than we spend for extra
fuel by leaving the windows open, be-
sides the care and anxiety of sickness.
Yours for health and happiness,
