feel able to put into it. The din

with which to engage the neces-
sary servants to run such a home
properly.

from a charity association to do
all this work 'for good home"
Soon after beginning a home,

For instance, there should be a
regular day upon which the soiled
clothes should either be laun-
dered at home or sent to the
laundry. Cleaning of the rooms
thoroughly should have a special
time. Cooking enough for more
than one meal win greatly re-
duce the time and fuel spent in
meal preparation.
It is better when beginning to
