Spend InteI|igent|y.

In the February Woman's Home
Companion appears an account of
the Housewives League and the
great work it is doing toward re-
ducing the cost of living. The Lea
que has 100000 members, is two
years old and is growing rapidly.
One Of the great pieces of work it
is doing is teaching. women to fol-
low the market reports in the news
papers and thus to know what the
proper prices for goods are. Fol-
lowing is part of statement
about the League made by the
president, Mrs. Julian Heath:
For generations Mother was a
practical and all-sufficient house
keeper.
To-day somebody else packs
down her butter and eggs when they
are plentiful, against the time when
they are scarce. Somebody else
preserves her fruits, cans her vege-
tables. salts her pork, makes her
pickles, bakes her beans. All these
people charge for service, a little
here, little there, but they do not
do all of her work for her.
Gas a result of the lack of over
sight on the part of the individual
housewife and spender, these firms
and corporations which do her big
ger housekeeping and should be
her servants have become her mas
tiers. But they have at last over
stepped the mark. They have
grown so daring, SO avaricious, so
greedy, that they have forced a
crisis, domestic panic. And they
are largely responsible for the
existence of the Housewives Lea
que, which purposes to fight them
and bring them to time. The Lea
que will dictate, and, because it is
a union half million strength will
be obeyed. 1t will tell the men who
juggle with cold-storage supplies
eggs, butter, meat-just what the
right market price is, and pay no
more. It will demand of bakers a
pound of bread to the loaf. 1t will
force the laundrymen to use a harm
less soft soap instead of a strong
bleach. But, NEST important, it
will help the worried housewife to
solve her individual problems by
showing her that modern house
keeping must be governed by mod
ern methods, precisely as the sue
cessful business venture is gov
erned.
''This is the gospel which the
Housewives League is spreading.
Spending is the woman's business.
When she has learned to spend in
telligently and with the same eff
cheney demanded for success in any
other line of business, she will have
reduced the cost of living to the
lowest point compatible with trade
or tariff conditions"
