1 to systematiZe the business of man aging her home, that Mrs. Kate Brew Vaughn, the domestic science expert who is conducting The Graphic's free home economic school now being held in Shriners' temple, will devote her time.
 What is budget? What is meant by the budget system?". These are questions frequently asked by the housewife, and Mrs. Vaughn will out line a practical budget system as applied to the needs of the average family.
 She Can ScOld, Too.
 Mrs. Vaughn yesterday demon strated that, despite her suitability and seemingly inexhaustible patience, she can be "just like regular teach er," as one little girl expressed t.. Provoked by the chattering that was going on at one time, Mrs. Vaughn reminded the ladies that there were periods during the afternoon allotted to conversation, and flat at other times the audience was expected to display the politeness to be expected at a gathering of such genteel wo-
 
 could have been heard after this mild scolding.
 Again, when the Star Spangled Banner" was played, the audience provoked Mrs. Vaughn whose spirit is that of the patriot of revolutionary days, and whose reverence for the flag and the national airs is no less than that of the founders of the re- public. Failure of the ladies to stand was noted by the teacher, who gave sign only by pressing her lips to, gether It was apparent, however. to a close observer, that she was dis pleased. Then, when the strains of the anthem were almost drowned n sound of voices, Ms. Vaugn kept silent no longer. She said that ev- erywhere she had visited, the people stood silent while the national airs were played, and that she regarded any other attitude as irreverent She reminded her hearers, too, that the Knox-Walker Furniture company, agents for the. Grafonola, had gone to some trouble to provide the enter liteness demanded that the company's courtesy be reciprocated.
 Two cakes made yesterday by Mrs. Vaughn v-o"o ""esented to Mrs. Leo Peck, SOY West Thirc avenue, anl Miss Lois Wilson, residing on the Camden road.
 Accepting Mrs. Vaughn's invitation. the Pine Bluff chapte' of the Red Cross society will have table in the lobby of the temple this afternoon. when Misses Frances Howell and Martha Whelan, attired in Red Cross uniforms, will solicit memberships in the society.

When the musical program was finished yesterday Mrs. Kate Brew Vaughn advanced to the front of the l platform, which is arranged this week as a kitchen, and smiling welcome to all present, she asked a few very intimate questions. Some of those in front of the speaker were seen to vls- ibly finch, Are you ladies perfectly satisfied with your mode of living and what you are getting out of life, and. particularly what you are put ting into life? Are you sure that you are spending your money so that it
 brings in the largest amount of good to your family? Are you putting into the spending of the money as much though and energy as the husband is putting into the making of the same money?"
 E As; these questions came from the speaker, her tone became soft and her eyes more sympathetic until every woman felt that not only did the questions affect herself, but that the speaker was reviewing her own young womanhood. "Are you aware that the health, mental integrity and moral de- velopment of your family depends on tho thought you put into your spend- ing? Is the husband making as much money as is possible? If not, what share of the fault is yours? Could someone else take your income and buy more lasting good-refinement, education, and the things that are real and make or mar our happiness 2" Urges Budget System for Home.
 After these questions were asked and the women in front of her were congratulating themselves upon the satisfactory answers they could give and others were wondering if it were really true that money wasted or hastily spent might have been the cause of some of the pinching and saving and doing without they had been compelled to do recently. Mrs. Vaughn launched out into an expla- nation of the budget system as an excellent way of keeping the ex- penses down, stating:
 eff you had them in figures where you could see them frequently you could tell what items to eliminate and what must be clung to and wrestled over until they became manageable.
 eff you ask your husband how much his office expenses are for a given period of time, you will find out that he knows! And his know ledge is gained by having inaugural ed and then adhered to system which produced an even distribution of his earnings as applied to the main- tenance of his business.
 "Now as the executive officer of the home, can you consistently afford to be less efficient, less progressive. less systematic. than your husband? Assuredly not" It is with the end in view of assisting the housewife

strated, including pretty dishes which owed their beauty to the particular way of serving or garnishing, nutri- tious foods and inexpensive foods. One of the interesting things about Mrs. Vaughn's demonstrations is that while she prepares and bakes the foods she explains everything that has any influence on that food, gives the history of it, as we'll as the heat of the oven, the cost and the amount of nutriment it contains. One fails to realize that she is working, it seems so easy, so fascinating and the i'm pulse of every woman is to go home immediately and try the recipes out before the method becomes the least bit dimmed in her mind.
 Today there is to be demonstrated formal dinner. This will be of in terest to the woman who entertains or is entertained. To the woman who does not have time for either enter taining or being entertained, but who does like to have everything as nice as possible for her own family, the demonstration will be of great value. Go early and get a front seat Be sure to take butter plate and small spoon for samples of food passed.
