GIRLS OF RUSSIA
GET MORE WORK
DONE THAN BOYS
Results of Survey Among
1900 Children An
nounCed.

BU IHitCd Press
MOSCOW, May 1.-THE age.old
question Of who has to work hard.
est the girls or the boys, has been
answered in favor Of the girls by
survey OF the way 1000 Russian
children spend the twenty.four hours
of each day. The girls work one and
one-half times as hard as the boys,
in the Soviet Union at least.
The report showed that Soviet chit
dren spend SO per cent of their lei
sure time playing games and 81 per
cent in taking walks. Only one.half
Of one per cent of their free time IS
passed in moving picture theaters or
other entertainments of the sort.
Dolls for the girls have almost lost
their charm entirely.
The survey, including children
from every sort Of family en-
vironment, divided the home work of
the boys and girls. Running errands
is the principal item, "a per cent of
all the home work. busting, wash
ing floors and other domestic chores
come second in Importance, "a per
cent. Washing and wiping dishes,
cooking, setting table and clearing
up after meals occupy third place, 16
per cent The family laundry is
mostly for the girls to do and this
accounts for IL per cent of |all the
home labors, exactly the same pro-
portion allotted to taking care Of
younger brothers and sisters, also
principally the work of the girls.
Mending and darning clothes, work
for girls, and tending animals, draw
ing water and splitting ldndling
wood, work for boys, balance each
other, each being L per cent of all
the homework.
The sports include hockey, skating,
skiing and shedding as the winters
favorite pastimesS and swimming
and rowing in summer. The boys
also play football as much as pos
sible and hand ball has been winning
favor.
