The Small Apartment Versus
The Detached Dwelling

As long as time and life shall last dis
cussion as to the relative merits and de-
merits of living in a ten-room house with
furnace that won't work and a maid
that has left and a four-rooms- with bath
and-kitChenette apartment not quite
large enough TO turn around in will go
mcrrily on. There isn't any doubt about
it. II is a fruitful topic for conversation
at all times.
To the woman who lives in a big, old
fashioned. roomy house, a coy little
apartment, with its up-to-date conven-
fences and all sorts of labor-saving de-
vices. including a janitor whom the own
cr of the building pays, seems near kin
to Paradise itself. But the housewife
who lives in the narrow confines OF even
a so-called spacious apartment, as apart
ments go, looks with eagerness and long
ing at the superiority OF guest rooms,
of storerooms. and closet space in the
home OF her childhood, when kitchenette
was a word uncoined.
1t is around the kitchenette. interesting
to say, that the high tide OF discussion
beats. The Misunderstanding fiat does
not figure to any extent worth mention
ing in the argument.
Modern household science has evolved
the .fact-and pretty firmly established 1t
that the big, old-fashioned kitchen, the
kind our grandmothers reveled-and
worked-in, with its walls fifteen feet

And she was trained in a very pleas

worthy a bit, for a full-grown woman,
a housekeeper woman. to take her les

And that butcher placed the trouble
all upon the shoulders of-mothers. Why
didn't they teach their daughters how
and what 10 buy? Why didn't they spare
them the humiliation of going to school
when they were away past the school
age? And why didn't they better pre-
pare them for their housekeeping, home
making work? Didn't they know that II
would come pretty hard, and didn't they
guess it would be only the few who
would make good? For, according to his
way OF measuring the women who buy,
there are very few who are any kind

butcher wills, high-priced or low. as
their purses bid. but as TO knowing what
they want and why they want IL, that
is not their strong point. IL the butcher
knows what he is talking about.
1t is all very true and all very wrong.
but there is one little thing that strikes
at the heart of the trouble, in part, at
least.
These girls and their mothers-the girls
ought to learn and the mothers should
find way to teach them. But. you see,
1t very often happens, that the girls slip
out of school and into the world of in
dustry without any lapse for housekeep-
ing training and housekeeping duties. II
they will II so. they will find a way:
but they are pretty much like their
brothers. When school days are over,
they go to work. sometimes for n few
years. sometimes longer. and opportuni-
ties for training come only as they are
made.
