WOMEN SHOULD
REDUCE EXPENSE
Present World Crisis Forces
Greater Economies in
Homes

The demand for greater econom-
ical living in the present crisis, of our
country makes it obligatory that
every housewife and true helpmate
should be prepared to do her part in
eliminating every unnecessary ex-
pense, whether in the matter of
wearing apparel, the management of
the home or in the kitchen.
The greatest results are obtained
by those who are prepared-those
who know how to practise economy
in a scientific way. by doing their
own sewing and plain dressmaking
and millinery. BY knowing how to
make their own wearing apparel and
hats they eliminate the great ex-
pense of hiring a dressmaker or
having a milliner do the work for
them. 1t is knowing how to do a
thing correctly and scientifically that
produces the greatest possible and
lasting results. Average knowledge
in the farreaching subjects of econ
omy is not enough. The knowledge
must be gained through preparation
It must be scientific.
This is the greatest economic mo-
ment in the life of every woman. 1t
is her chance to serve the needs of
sible means to eliminate waste in the
home.
The management of this paper
has been fortunate in perfecting ar
rangements with the Lincoln Corre-
spondence Schools, Incorporated, of
New York city by which all our sub
scribers have an opportunity of
learning the scientific methods of
practicing economy. The money
NV I'm n hnN n
make her own dresses and hats will
greatly add to the defense of home
and country.
This is a serious time in our coun-
try's life. Every home and every
family's individual members must
avoid extravaganza in living. This
can be done without sacrifice of per-
sonal or home comforts if the house
wife knows how to go about it scien-
tifically. The National Housewives
League, that great economical body
adopted the slogan Save to Win!"
These women know the value of saw
ing and how to avoid every unneces-
sary expense both in a personal way
and in the kitchens of their homes
and in the proper and scientific man
agement of their homes. Study and
application of economical principles
have made them one of the great and
most helpful forces in the country,
simply because they know the scien-
tific way of doing things in the exer-
else of practical economy. 1t is every
womans duty to serve her country
by applying the principles of econ
omy in the home. The women of
this country never had a better op-
portunity for patriotic action than
now.
