Ceremony for Flag
With a Red Star

Don't take down your service flags

gradually disappear. weather beaten,
tattered and unnoticed. This Is the
plea of Wal Camp Community Serv-
Ice, which does not believe that these
emblems of all our hopes and fears
during nineteen trying months of
war should be laid aside without fit
ting ceremonies.
Instead OF taking down the flags
one by one as asst as the boys are
mustered out or the stars have turned
to gold, War Camp Community Serv-
ice urges that their proud possessors
should keep them exhibited until n
fixed date when they can be demobil-
lied at a public ceremony.

suggests the period in which Wash

cstsian for the first ceremony of the

In making out a family budget OF
household and living expenses for the
year, the makers must realize that
there can be no such thing as a stan
dard budget. The divisions and sub
divisions of the income Will differ in
each family, according to the differ
ence in income and the conditions of
life to which il must be adjusted.
For instance, two families, each
having an income of $1,000 a year,
will not spend it in the same way. be-
cause one budget nay nav to be di-
vided between five persons, while the
other may be required for only two.
/ One family may live in "A steam-heat-
ed city apartment, while the other
lives in a cottage in a small town. Nat
urally, the items for rent and heat in
the two budgets would differ.
The chief factors which determine
the general division of almost all
family budgets are five in number,
and their variation with each family
affects the manner in which the in
come is apportioned between the two
main divisions of necessities and
higher life"
These factors are:
Number of persons in family Cad
ults. children m servants).
Physical condition of family menu
bers (health, sickness. age and in
fancy have different requirements for
expenditure).
Shelter (house or apartment. heat
ed or ~unheated).
Environment Gin city. in country. In
town. In suburbs OF city). Different
standards OF living and expense vary
with neighborhoods.
Transportation necessary to carry
family members to school work, mar
ket or church).
In the city. transportation costs for
IN average family will be high. In
country oil small town, they will be
almost nothing.
1t Is cas- to see how these difference
es In conditions will alter the division
OF the same amoun OF income in diff
ferent families.
Grown persons require more food
than children. Children make a
house in suburbs or small town more
desirable than a city steam-heated
apartment. Five persons need a larg-
er house thar two. etc. So the budget
of one family cannot be compared
With another unless the conditions are
the same.
The sun total OF living expenses. OF
course. increase with the size of the
family. but ii does not follow that
single items OF expense simply double
or triple in regular multiplication as
the family grows.

HOUSE WIFE HINTS

A dark blue taffeta waist saves la
Dor N fuel. II does not require the
frequent washings of a light colored
wash-silk or cotton waist and II is so
soft that 1t does not press into un-
slightly creases.
Ostrich feathers stored away should
be brought TO light Immediately. Cut
them apart and separate them. Open
the flues by steaming them and this
will remove the curl also. Then small
pieces may be used for trimming the
brim of the hat.
Another state of reincarnation for
the percale shirt of daddie's is in the
making of a faglan dress for the lit
tie lassie. Blind embroidery trims the
collar and cuffs.
Are o fortunate enough 10 have n
linen buster from some forty years
back? Then make il over into a chic
morning dress by combining II with

MAKING ENDS MEET
T1S''s GWE9l9R
INCOME

In his book, 1.-THE Business of the
Household" G. w. Taber explains this
problem thus: Food for three does
not cost half as much again as for
two people for there is moro waste
per person and less opportunity for
economy in buying n using for two
than for several persons. Clothing
may be made over and used more fully
in a family with children than where
all are adults. A family of two adults
and three children requires less house
room than five adults.
Operating expenses, which include
light, heat, telephone and h~ousekeep-
ing expenses such as wages. utensils,
etc, will not vary much with the size
of family, but do vary with size Of IN
come.
"One fundamental point i'm all bud
gets made to suit individual families
is that 1t is possible to organize ones
expenses so that necessities are al
lowed u sufiieiency. and. as income
grows, are kept to a reasonable mini
mum, so that there is al ev~er-ncreas-
ing margin for cultural life and for
savings"
