Miss Adah Hitler addressed the
members Of the department OF home
economies Of the Woman's club in the
entertainment parlCrs Of the Metho-

Budget" which she treated in most
interesting way. and was thoroughly
enjoyed by a large sized audience. In
the course Of her remarks Miss Hitler
said that 10 true economy could be
practiced in the home until standard
was adopted by all the members OF
the family. The home maker must
understand definitely what the income
IS, the income Garner must know
definitely how that income IS dis
bursed, and both must have the same
motive toward which TO save only
by keeping an accurate record OF eX-
penditure can one follow the outgo in
order TO see how the standard Of the
I family measures UP 10 the ideal.
Just what is the standard Of living2
Tt is one Of these intangible things
so hard 10 describe for a standard
OF living differs with different people.
What one family might consider a
necessity, another may regard as an
extravaganza. and likewise one 9
standard and opportunity. A normal
standard Of living Is one which con-
lduces 10 healthy, systematical devel-
iopment physical, mental and moral.
The women who succeed today are
those who dare 10 live in intelligence
independence, live 10 their own stand
ard OF life. Such women do not In
discriminatory copy the dress and
manners Of others: they spend with
care and judgment. Since most Of
the wealth acquired is spent on the
home or interests closely allied TO 1t,
women become the main users or d.
rectors Of this expenditure 1t is esti
mated that the sum OF ten billion
dollars is spent in the United States
for household expenses annually This
gives some idea OF what a tremend-
-nns huslness housekeeping is.
