Spring months each of the 13 ladies
in this unusual community does her
own cooking and heats the water for
her daily ablutions as well as her per-
Sonal laundry. In the Summer time
an electric grill is provided by the
homes management for similar house
keeping offices. Each of these 13
ranges sits upon its own hearth stone
underneath a mantel of simple dig
nified lines dating back to the early
days of the old homes occupancy
when every room had its own fire
place. Even to the stove pipe that
fits into each of these f1replaces, the
little ranges are kept so bright and
shining by the housekeepers whom
they serve that they literally mirror
your face upon their polished surfaces.
Have individual Ice Boxes.
In the entries or passage ways, which
connect the various rooms, each guest
has her own individual ice box. Tin
food presses with their patterned per-
foratlonS also line the Walls of the
passage ways and every home maker
has shelf space in these receptac cles.
The resources of the home are Suf-
flclent only to provide each of its
residents with six dollars a month
in the way of food allowance issued
in the form of voucher. This is a
kindly nearby grocery store proprietor
honors according to the wishes Of the
holder with overweight the accepted
practice in most instances.

resident is going to free her and her
associates from the burden of their
personal laundry problems.
