In cookery delights to overcome diff
culties and make do" with few tools
to work with. Did you ever see a
camper open a sack of flour. pour IN
the water. add the salt, soda or ha-
king powder. stir up the dough with
a wooden paddle made with a jack
knife, and bake the dough before the
fire with never a dish or utensil to
s IN its making? When we are
roughing 1t, It is what we can do with
out and make less baggage that is the
main thought.
The manufactures is constantly on.
the watch to e where time and ma
terial as well as the energy Of his
workmen may be saved. When our
housekeepers put thought and plan
ming on their work, saving steps for
themselves and their employees. we
win have less servant problems to
solve.
To make short cuts in %housekeep-
ing doesn't mean that work is slight
ed or half done. Housekeeping is a
business, a profession, and women
r too prone to follow the ways Of
their mothers before them, hence the
~disordered, unsystematic condition
prevails.
In the business Of housekeeping It
is Just as true that the greatest ef-
hciency is the result of scientific man
agement as in any other line of work
One of the first things that a house
wife who directs others has to learn,
Is how and what has to be done, and
the time it takes for a person of or
binary ability to do it.
The unreasonable demands of some
%mlstresses, who expect and demand
the impossible, are legion. A skilled
worker can, and does, accomplish
much more in a given time than one
who puts no thought into her work.
But skilled workers are arc and
many are in training in our homes.
The arrangement of the utensils
used in cooking within the easiest
possible reach, the saving Of steps by
using a tray to remove and carry in
dishes and food to and from the table,
in these as we'll as many others
with a little study one may see many
shortcuts.

LEAP YEAR RIGHTS
In Scotland Years Ago They Were REQ

ognlzed as Real, and Well De-
fined by Law.
Ancient, indeed, are the prerogatives
that are accorded to women In leap
year. They are 80 old that none can
tell just how or when they originated.
However, the ancient Scottish parlia-
ment gives us a date as well as a law
upon which to hang the right OF WON
en- to take the initiative In leap year,
as convention forbids them to do In
other years.
In the year 1928 this body passed a
law which, in its quaint old English,
expressly conferred on womanhnd the
right to propose marriage in leap year.
Here Is the law, Just as It was written
the parliamentary records:
"Ordonit that during ye reign Of her
maist blessed Majestic, ilka maiden,
ladee of bath high and lowe estait,
shRle haze nbertie to speak ye man she
likes Gif he refuses to tax hir to bee
his wyf, he shale bee mulct in We sum
Of ane hundridt2 pundes, or less, as
HIS estait may bee, except and alwais
gil he can make 1t appeare that he is
betRothit to another woman, then he
shale be free"
