4 NEW war IS at hand; its prelimi-
~ nary skirmishes have already taken
~ place. and the conflict bids fair to
become OF national interest. On
one side are arrayed the federal
su~ernment and the housewives; the other
boasts high cost of living and his ally, the
profiteer. One Of the formidable units
lined up against this foe is known as the
Homo Bureau.
In Westchester county, a group of public
spirited women, aided by the United States
Department Of Agriculture, has organized
Home Bureau which has proved it's eff
cacy by the saving of thousands of dollars
to housewives. Mrs. Edwin latham, of
katonah, is president of the organization,
Mrs. j.. III. Bethel, of Scarsdale is vice
president, and Mrs. Lawrence J. Mead is
secretary. While many counties of other
States are conducting Home Bureaus as
part OF the Home Economics Extension
work Of the government, that of West
chester is especially deserving of mention
Tor the results it has achieved
The organization maintains a headquar-
ters in the Court House at White Plains,
and every town throughout the county
has been visited by the government leader,
Miss Elizabeth Simpson, or her volunteer

planning. cooking, sewing, budget making,
feedlng and care of children, and every
phase OF home management are given to
housewives, business women and school

Home Bureau hopes to scatter the forces
OF its opponent, and thus bring down living
costs.
To women In small communities. many
miles from railroad line, this opportunity y
To learn how to stretch the dollar" is
doubly welcome. Housewives in remote
settlements find it difficult to gather, to
compare notes and give helpful sugges-
tions on household management, but the
Home Bureau not only provides an oc-
casion, but urges every resident of the
section to attend its meetings. Thus, Mrs.

she seems to see little Joy in everything

Well versed in topics of the day, she
gave prompt reply to the first question
asked -
what does the working girl need most %
"Guglielmo Ferrero, an eminent Italian
historian, recently said the greatest need
of the world was wisdom and bread To
my mind the greatest need OF the working
girl Is home
Modest in her expression OF such an i'm

Miss Farina continued -
There are thousands Of girls in New

hension Of their own lives Any girl OF
even moderate means can have a home

ply herself and there Is no reason why

day and spends greater part OF her even
ings In the study of languages and music.
A small library OF good literature and ref

many nights she burns midnight oil"
What do you do for a vacation?" was a
query.
Her eyes flashed up and a smile crept
from her curved lips. "a working girl has
a hard task finding time for a vacation,

High in her ideals firm and decided in
