AUTUMN RESOLUTIONS.

|
Copyright. 1916. by the Mcclure News
/ paper Syndicate.)
Most New Years resolutions are
taken about three months too late.
Much more appropriate would they be
and probably much more likely to be
kept had they been taken at the open
ing Of the autumn winter season, When
the cool weather, with its hosts of new
responsibilities. new cares and new du-
ties, was at hand. By New Years day
1t seems too late for most housewives
to change their routine, or their habits,
The winter seems on the wane and no
one is so very much interested in start
ing out in new paths when the old
paths have done for the major part OF
the cool season.
So here's wishing the housewife a
merry autumn and may she make and
keep a splendid set of autumn resolu :
tions
Here are few.
Resolved, that the days grow colder
and even when they are very cold. l
will air my house daily so that the air
we breathe may be as nearly as posi-
BILE as fresh as 1t is in summer. To do
, this l will devote ten minutes every
morning to the task of opening. all the
windows in the living quarters of the
house, pulling back the curtains and
letting the fresh air rush through the
rooms. This is best accomplished
! sometime in the late morning when the
air is warmer outside and when those
| indoors are actively at work. For the
rest l resolved always to keep as many
windows open as the weather permits.
Resolved, That l will so arrange my
morning schedule that there need be
no rushing to business or running off
to school | will insist on having
breakfast at least three-quarters OF an
hour before any one neds to leave the
house for business or school.
| Resolved, | will never unless for rea-
sons of weather, or illness, remain in
doors all day. l will spend at least
a half an hour every day walking or
otherwise in outdoor exercise.
Resolved, l will bravely eliminate
from my home all furniture and dec
orations that do not serve to purpose
/ of utility or beauty-bcth if possible.
will give or throw away the old clock
that does not keep good time and that
does not add to the beauty of the liv-
ing-room l will get rid of all pic
lures and ornaments. couch cushions
and draperies that do not possess the
redeeming feature of beauty.
Resolved, To make a good, practical
working schedule for the housework
and stick to it as faithfully as possible.
Resolved, To make out budget of
household and personal expenses and
by sticking to it faithfully eliminate
the hobgoblin of worry that haunts so
many housewives and mothers of fami-
lies.
Resolved, To take an interest in my
work--if this begins to lag, to revive 1t
by reading and studying questions OF
household management as they have
been worked out by authorities on
these subjects.
Resolved, To have some real interest
outside the household, in the form OF a
club or a charitable association or a
pleasure society-a sewing bee, or a
dancing class or a bridge club.
