but many still prefer to make in the
home what they use. An ordinary
food chopper is used for the purpose

THE UNcLUTTERED MIND

A writer on 'tThe Household Eff
cient" says: Il am sometimes asked
why Good Housekeeping Institute adj
vocates cabinets in place Of shelves
why in the Institute kitchen knives,
spoons, egg-beaters, ct cetera, are not
hung in the open where they can be
readily grasped Good Housekeeping
Institute believes that in planning any
kitchen for convenient work il must
not be forgotten that, unlike factory
motion, kitchen operations are not
uniform. and that it is Of the utmost
importance to secure efficiency of the
mind. for efficiency of the hand will
surely follow
1T is for this reason that equip
ment and utensils are enclosed in con-
venient cupboards and itchen cabi-
nets rather than hung against the wall
Thus. while steps are minimized by
the proper placement Of equipment.
the mind is never irritated by too
close quarters in cluttered' room"
There is a moral in this explanation
for more than the busy housewife.
The fundamental principle of sue
cessful work anywhere is the unclut-
tered mind. Cutlery room means
that a Cutlery personality is express
ing itself there. Clutter makes for
nervousness, fretfulness. lack of poise.
bewilderment and weakness.
The reason why the American peo-
pie are succeeding in the great task
of war is that in the past year they
have swept their mental desks and
kitchens clear of the disorder and
confused accumulation of generations.
Every side issue. every distracting
selfish aim. was discarded. With free
and uncluttered minds we faced sin
gle purpose.
We know now what can be accom-
plished when a nation concentrates
upon task Shall we eevr be willing
to go back to the old confusion?
