.RoRN CnoKSr A FALLACY

There never was a greater falIacy than the idea that all women are born cooks They are not and those who are not have progressed enough to be willing to admit it.
 Perhaps no other old fashioned notion has caused as much waste of woman ability as this "born-cook" thought. It has for hundreds of years tied the artist the writer, the educator, the musician or the executive indiscriminatingly to the stove and kitchen.
 The less one is a "born-cook' the great CT is tine bondage of having to select and carry through every step of prepara- ton all the foods for ones family
 Fortunately the natural development and perfection of food industry has brought freedom to the millions of home managers who are not born cooks.
