like dressing UP and going out for

Meats can be prepared. vegetables
cooked, and desserts made before

from cooking the entire meal at s

reason some women seem to have
more time than others is because
they plan their work SO as to make
time and make work easier. The
housewife should take care Of her
self in summer. She should use
every means and method to make
her work easy ana no one thing
will conduce to her passing a rest
ful summer as much as a serious
attempt to solve her meal problem
and make it easier during hot
weather.
