What woman, as she bends over
scanning painful of dishes, has
sotardently wished that it was po-
No To serve on paper plates, or
.hat she was wealthy enough to
.hrow away soiled china ones?
n;ahes, like the poor, we have al
avs with us. Cooking is task
hot confronts US three times a
aav but cooking is creative art.
Il gets you someplace. Dish-wash-
mo merely puts you back where
von were before you started.
Machines for this task, no mat
ter how ingenious, have not been
. mccess in the home. In the first
rlaee, they art not particularly eff
ficient, and in the second, they do
only a portion Of the work. Clear
mo the tables, scraping the plates,
putting away left-overs, and stack
ing up dishes all must be done by
hand.
Plenty of table and shelf space,
- abundance of hot water, soap
and dry towels are aids to COM
Portable dish-washing. So is the
proper frame Of mind. Fortunately,
dish-washing is not a job requir-
ing mental concentration. The
worst you can do is wash several
dishes twice or forget the frying
pan. Some women have learned TO
do great deal of thinking about
interesting things all the while
their hands are busy with the soap
and water business. One author
admits that she thinks out most
Of her plots and dialogues while
me does the breakfast dishes. An.
other plans her days work at this
time.
The thing to do, it would seem
then, is to arrange your dish-wash-
ing facilities as conveniently as
possible and let your thoughts roll
on as the plates stack up.
Considering the number of times
We do dishes, there is surprisingly
little grumbling. Most of us, most
Of the time, view it as something
to be done, an allotted job ordained
from the beginning of the universe,
against which no kicking will
avail. But every once in while
such as Sunday noon when there
were 20 at the table, the kitchen
looks like an awful mess, the stack
Of soiled dishes is appallingly high
and it just doesn't seem fair that
We must pitch in while the men
folks reflect cigars and digest
their repast in contemplative peace
inithe parlor.

A week later in an emergency,

with her, a child just Tommy's
