BY MRS. EDITH NELL NICHOLS
A Bride
One day / asked one of my neigh
bors why she didn't keep household
accounts. Her reply was the same
that millions of American women
gave She said she couldn't keep
track of every cent she spent, 81 she
stopped trying to keep accounts.
This general feeling among house
wives has led American brides to
think that there is something mystic
rious about keeping household ac-
count
1 didn't try to keep a record of
how / spent every cent If at the
end of the week / had spent five
cents for something / could not ac-
count for, / placed the expenditure
In my account book under the head
of miscellaneous. l forgot to weep
about it.
To me the household account book
is a history of past expenditures
which will guide me in my future
purchases and in making my budget.
In my account book the following
expenditures were listed: Food, fuel,
rent, clothing, education, investment,
insurance, laundry, savings, transpor-
Under food l had the following sub
heads: Meats, groceries, ice, dairy
products, fruits and vegetables.
At the end of every month / added
all of my expenditures together so l
could tell at a glance how much l
had spent for food, clothing or any
item during the month.
Using my household accounts as a
guide. I made a household budget for
every month. A budget is a plan of
the expenditures for a month or for
a given period of time. I'm happy
to say I found it to be one of my best
friends and l hope it will not be a
stranger in many homes long.
The budget helped me in two ways;
]. To distribute my expenditures
evenly so there would be no rat
DAVIS followed by lean ones.
2. To make both ends more than
meet so there would be some savings
-fvery budget is divided into two
tsarts, the necessities and higher life

hold of a~nti-suffrage sentiment and
cannot reasonably be counted on to
endorse the amendment.
Six other states, Georgia, Massachu-
sets, New Jersey, New York. Rhode
Island and South Carolina, hold an
nual instead of biennial legislative ses-
sions, and so might possibly add six
votes of ratification. But, even should
the five southern states and the six
annual session states all ratify the
suffrage amendment their total of
eleven votes would still leave twenty
five state ratifications needed to COM
plete the thirty-six required.
And all of the twenty-five would
have to be summoned in special SEES
sion to vote!
Therefore the old-line politicians
who count on Influence" and COS
troll and "tied-up" votes will not
have to lie awake nights worrying
over the unknown quantity of the
women's vote THIS election.
At the same time, while ~suffragists
will be unable to take full advantage
of their new franchise privilege in
November, 1920, the vote of women
will be of considerable importance in
that election.

June, 1919, was destined TO put the
vote into the hands of American wo-
men-just too late to make 1t OF much
effect in the national elections OF Nov
ember, 1920.
WHY?
Because. to become effective, the
suffrage amendment TO the consti-
tuition must be ratiheA by thirty-six
state legislatures.
The last biennial session Of the
majority of state legislatures convene
ed in January, 1919, and adjourned a
few weeks later-to meet no more un-
til January, 1921-one month too late
to let the ladies in on choosing the
next president.
In order TO ratify the amendment
in time for the 1920 elections at least
twenty-five state governors woul
have to summon the legislatures in
special session!
The chances are that that will NOT
be done!
AS a result, the women in the TWEEN
ty-three states already enjoying full
or presidential suffrage as a result OF
state action, will be the only ones TO
participate in the next national cleo
lions, while their sisters who have
lust attained the vote by federal
amendment-keep on waiting patent
ly.
Five states, Louisiana, Kentucky,
Maryland, Mississippi and Virginia,
hold legislative sessions in 1920. and
might be expected to give five rati-
flying votes-except that they are all
part of the solid SOUTH" the strong

The necessities are: Food, clothing,
shelter and operating expenses. the
operating expenses are gas, nght'
telephone, fuel, soap and the replace
ment of utensils when they wear out.
Under higher life come savings,
education, religious activities, health'
insurance and luXuries.
In making my monthly budget l
looked over my household accounts
for the previous Month If l spent
$40 for food, | am safe in allowing
the same amount in the plan or Dud-
get for next month
suppose one should find that the
expenditure for food for the month
had been $50. The budget would not
| plan such an -extravagant amount
again. The household accounts would
show the housewife her extraVa-
gance. The budget for the next
month would not allow the mistake
to be made again.
No one can make a budget for you.
You have to do it yourself. Nc two
families live under exactly the same
conditions.
Here are some OF the family bud
gets which have been tried in mil
lions of American homes: If the in
come is $1,000 a year.. during one
month $40 is spent for food, $40 for
rent, $40 to SIS for operating ex-
penses, $40 for clothes and SIS to $50
for higher life.
If the income is $4,000 a year dur
ing one month the expenditures are:
Food, $50; rent. $50; operating e
penses, $40; clothes, SIS, and higher
life. S102.
All of us expect to have greater
Incomes in the future. If we organ
ize our expenditures SO that a suffi-
cient amount is allowed for the ne
cessities, as the income grows, we viii
have more for cultural life and saw
