The Housewives Economy Calendar
by Frances Marshall

But since children still do come
home with several hours work TO
do in coming next days lessons,
the mother has 70 decide the best
way TO cooperate with the child in
keeping the task from being too
burdensome. 1t doesn't really seem
right TO have TO help do the teach
ing and perhaps if the mother went
and showed the teacher that she
had strong convictions on the sub
ject teacher might take pains TO
show her pupil in school hours
how TO study by himself
OF course if mother docilely does
teach her children lessons day after
day the teacher would hardly be
human if she did not let her con-
tinue TO do so.
The mother ought 10 make up
her mind quite definitely as TO what
hours in the afternoon are 10 be
spent studying. 1t seems to me that
very good arrangement is TO let
the children play till or 4:30 and
then, after having refreshed them
with a very small sandwich or a
glass of milk. TO insist on all les
sons being learned before dinner or
supper time. Some mothers feel
thai when there is an early family
rising hour. the best time for chill
dren TO study at home is between
breakfast time and school hour. But,
this always requires more determin-
alton than most children possess, for
early morning wills are weak and
thoughts are wandering. Far bet
ter is il 10 reserve these morning
hours for whatever household ac-
Invites your children are expected
10 perform.

DO YOUR CHILDREN STUDY Al
HOME?

HOME?
There is nothing that is quite so
disconcerting for the housewife
tired out from a mornings work
and scheming over household prob
lens as 70 have her precious Off
spring announce on coming home
from school that teacher says to
get mamma TO help you with that
problem" or teacher was going TO
keep me in but she had 10 go to
the ball game, SO she let me off if
l promised that I'd get mamma to
hear my spelling till I knew it," or
teacher wants. me TO speak a
piece next Friday and she says
would you please teach me some
thing pretty"
OF course the tired housewife
mothers first sentiment is that
teacher had about as much right to
make such requests as the mother
would have TO send word by little
son or daughter that she wanted 10
know whether teacher would please
come home and show the washer
woman how 10 make clothes white
without using washing soda. or
that mother wanted TO have teacher
balance her household accounts or
90 make a cake or do the week $
darning because mother had 10 go
TO a ball game.
Os course on second thought the
mother sees that the cases are a
little different, still she is right i'm
feeling that something is wrong
with the teacher or the school when
children cannot be taught all that
is good for them in one day between
the hours of $50 or and 3.
