HOUSEWIFE FIGURED WORTH.
$500 A YEAR TO HUBBY

A housewife is worth $500 a year
to her husband, according to the es-
innate told the members of the Lake
View Women's Club at their meeting
yesterday afternoon by Mrs. Henry A.
Morgan, head of the Home Econom-
les Department of the General Fed
Grafton of Women's Clubs.
Housewives at the meeting made
no objection to this valuation.
Among the other statements made
by Mrs. Morgan were:
"The mother who earns a living for
her family is only worth half as much
if she devoted her services as mo-
Their. .ll ~ -.
Training in spending money is as
important as earning it.
Instruction in domestic science
should begin in sixth grade in public
schools, and that the average girl
makes a poorer housewife than the
girl who has never been thrown upon
her own resources"
