Third, the Fall is a good conven-

Some one said to me U think il

known women) that men were
noted for getting together and
talking about their own subjects.
but that when women got together
they wanted to talk on any other
subject except that which really
was their job 800 days in the year.
And ! know that he is right, for
while plumbers like to gather and
talk about plumbing, and lawyers
assemble to discuss legal problems.
and statesmen meet to spend five
days talking about how to increase
sales, where are the women who
are willing to meet and discuss ho,.
to feed their family, what labor
savers to buy, how to plan budget
or manage their own business? No.
indeed, they assemble to hear an
imported lecturer tell about wha;
the war has done for the working
women of England, or how much
the theatre owes to the new i'm
pressionist school, or the effect Of
Irish folklore on modern poetry.
The women's clubs "dote" on such
subjects, but the poor little Home
Economics group has difficulty in
securing even a small audience to
hear a speaker on this subject.
That is why right here | come
out fiatfootedly and say that one of
the things every housekeeper must
do on the return from her vacation
is to. take active hold of a club in
her community. and. especially, see
that it gives the subject of home

vuTITH the first OF September
" the housekeeper, among
w others, must feel that her
vacation days are over and that II
is time to start the Fall and Win
ter plans a-going. We hope that
whatever kind OF rest or change
she has taken has permitted her to
return home with new enthusiasm,
more strength and the ability to
have even a wider viewpoint OF her
work and home.
just received In the mail a let
ter which says, at seems to me
that September is an ideal time to
take hold of home problems anew.
Every one is back from vacation
ing and feels a new enthusiasm for
housekeeping and all 1t involves"
This surely typifies the new spirit
with which all women should re-
turn to their homes in the Fall.
The first thing / would suggest
is for each homemaker to view her
home on her return as If she were
entirely an outsider. II you were
Mrs. Jones, instead Of Mrs. Brown,
would you have managed youi
home exactly as you did last year?
II you were Mrs. Jones would you
like the way Mrs. Brown arranged
her kitchen? Couldn't you suggest
some better placing, some grouping
that would save more steps and
effort? If you were Mrs. Jones
would you market and plan the
meals as did Mrs. Brown? Would
you plan your budget the same
way?
All too many of us are apt to get
an "ingrown" viewpoint. and moth
ing is more wholesome than to ap-
proach a problem through the eyes
of another person. How much
easier it is to criticize some one
else than ourselves! But may 1t
not be possible to criticize our
selves as though we were someone
else? Surely we will achieve a
wholesome frankness by thus doing
and will see defects in our own
management, our own arrange
ments, which we could not see II
we viewed them personally.
Second, l would try this Fall on
my return to view housekeeping on
truly business basis. II may be
only Job" but you may make it
profession" and in any case you
can make it a business" Many
men do not like their jobs or their
business, but ! believe that there

Small mistakes that bar
the way to beauty

40 many women nearly ruin their good
looks by making few apparently trifling
~ mistakes in the care of their compilations.
So often you see a woman right out in public,
give furtive dab with her powder puff. Her
nose will get shiny in spite of her best efforts.
This is because she makes the mistake of apply
ing the powder directly to her skin instead of
first using a powder base. To avoid shiny
face you must always apply powder base
For this a special cream is needed which dis
appears instantly and will not reappear. Ponds
Vanishing Cream does just this. 1t contains no

You are making mistake if you do not pro-

Repeated sun and wind burn permanently coar-

For this you need different cream, cream
with an oil base. Ponds Cold Cream was
specially formulated for this purpose. At night
before you 60 to bed rub some of it thoroughly
into your face, and then wipe it off with soft
