What Kind Of a Guest Are You :

There's just as much skill needed

There's Just as much skill needed
to bs a good guest as good hostess.
The girl who thinks that when
she's being entertained. her chief
duty is to sit about with folded hands.
is very much mistaken.
Everybody likes to be asked to
spend week ends with friends. Every
girl likes to feel that she's welcome
to spend the night with her chum
as often as she likes. Yet there are
many maidens who are down on the
black books Of those whom they've
visited.
You wonder why Viola invited you
once to spend the night at her house
then abruptly ceased to ask you
there at all.
You wonder why you're not includ-
ed in certain week end parties. where
as they please.
It's probably because you did just
as you pleased that your genial host
ess has decided you can't come again.
When the woman who Is entertain.
| ing you informs you that you are at
liberty to do what you like. she really
means that you're free to enjoy your
self in a reasonably quiet wny.
She doesn't literally mean that you
can use her house like a cheap hotel
and expect to come again next week.
You've got to be just as careful OF
her things as you are Of your own.
You've got to show her as much con-
sideration as you do yourself.
The girl who smears her rouge into
the dressing table 50 that special
preparation has to be bought to clean
it doesn't leave a pleasant memory
with her hostess.
When Muriel left beautifully mon
ogrammed wet towel lying on blue
bedspread, so that the blue soaked
onto the towel permanently and in
delibly. no one in the house yearned
for Muriel's returning.
Why Is it we can't seem to realize
that the property Of those we're visit
ing is just as valuable as our own
property?
We wouldn't ruin our own nice
handkerchiefs dusting our shoes with
them.
Yet several girls on a house party
recently used several of the handker-
chiefs they found in their room to
wipe off black suede shoes-a process
which has never been known to i'm
prove the appearance of any fragile
hanky.
I'm afraid the motto of many
American girl is: THE hostess has to
put up with all her guests whims and
moods. Why bother about her? Let's
enjoy ourselves. It's not our house.
We can ruin it,
That isn't theory that makes for
popularity. nor does 1t bring forth the
coveted invitations to spend q few
days at nice houses.
The duties Of a guest are just as
clearly defined as those of a hostess
You must train yourself to be a thor
oughly efficient guest before you'll be
! a welcome one.

Correct Sorting in Laundry Work

the necessity Of correct sorting.
The process is a series of subdivi-

are to be separated from the house

must be separated from the white

this high office, but the fact that both
United States senators and also the
lieutenant governor are residents of
that city. Add to that the governor
ship and Minneapolis would have a
monopoly on the principal offices in
Minnesota. That situation probably
won't hurt Leach in Minneapolis nor
make any difference with thousands of
voters elsewhere but it will be more
or less important factor, with large
class of voters who are not interested
in the fortunes of the candidates from
other standpoints. Odd Circumstance
es of that kind quite often influence
voter, especially if there are no out
standing issues which catch their
fancy. This proposition is nothing
new to the hackers of either men. On
this account many of Gov. Christian
sons closest political friends doubted
that Leach's threatened candidacy
would actually develop. It was, too
it is believed, given long and serious
consideration by opponents of the gov
ernor. However Leach looked like
the best bet among the willing barkis
in spite of the handicap. 1t is one of
those ISSUES" that put candidate on
the defensive by the other fellow.

"Sentimentality in regard to GRIM

ed all down the line and it's time we
gave a little of it to society,"" Mrs
Thomas G. Winter, former leader of
the club women of America, told an
audience of more than enc thousand
women at Montevido. She was adj
dressing the convention of the Seventh
District Minnesota Federation clubs.
Mrs. Winter called the attention of
the women to the advantages given
criminals under our system of law adj
ministration. She declared that two
things faced the crime commission

vamping of the whole criminal code

thing is certain, worst things and their
correction by the protection is given
to the criminal and mighty little to
society. We must give the criminal
a chance to rebuild his mar hood, but
we have got to think of society first"

THREE ACRES OF DISHES
QUARTER MILE FOR A PIE
PACE EIGHT

Drying three acres Of dishes a year,
walking quarter of a mile to bake
a lemon pie, and pumping Is tons of
of water in year are some of the do
mestic feats performed by the aver
age rural housewife who does not fol-
low good methods of home Management
Recognizing this as condition which
can be improved, workers at the an
!, nua1 Western States Extension Con-
ference held last winter emphasized
the need of giving more attention to
the home management.
Without water system in her
house the rural housewife, they say,
carries an average of 20 tons of water
a year and travels 100000 steps in
doing it. 1t requires 20 days union
time to carry the water in and 10 days
to carry out the waste water, or a
total of 80 days year spent in carry
ing water. Ten days work could be
saved, say the Extension workers, by
having drain to carry the water out,
even though complete water system
were not installed

needed to be corrected. Punishment
in the future for criminals, Mrs. Whit
err said, must be quick and inevitable.
She contrasted the way England hand
led its criminals clearing the dockets
in few hours and melting out punish
ment, with our methods of dragging
trials over months with floods of ora
tory.
Mrs. Winter is agreed with the
views which have been so frequently
expressed by The Free Press that the
coddling of criminals must cease if
society expects to receive the protect
ion that is its due-but if society ex-
pect to accomplish its purpose is must
elect to the legislation necessary.
Let's give society at least fifty-fifty
break with the Observation-Disclosures

les of advertising should read it.
In previous issue of the maya
zine Winifred Kirkland, as Smith
Jones in 1874, described marvellous
world from which all traces of adver-
Using had mysteriously disappeared
fifty years ago. Mr.. Calkins picks
up the thread of her story and proves
conclusively that our very civilization
rests upon advertising and selling.
"IiIing rnirty years after Smith
Jones' death Mr.. Calkins described
the gradual retrogression and final
breakdown of our civilization after the
effects of advertising had entirely dis
appeared.
For time the public enjoyed the
benefits of advertising without the
drawbacks. The flow of goods to and
from the stores was like some mighty
machine which, once started, ran for
while with its own momentum even
after the power had been withdrawn.
The manufacturers confronted the
same problem as the retailers, the
difficulty of doing business in the
face of shrinking markets and rising
costs.
The shrinking markets were the
cause of the rising costs. The fewer
the people who bought an article, the
more it cost to make that article, and
the more it cost to sell it. The high
er prices in turn still further reduc-
ed the number of purchasers, and
thus necessities were fast becoming

ing extinct.-Duluth Herald.
