Your House and
Garden Beautiful
YOUR BREAKFAST ROOM

Not so long ago, the breakfast
room was deemed a luxury to be
found only in homes of the veal
thy, but it has proven its right to
exist even in homes of moderate
cost, for its gay, intimate atmos-
phere makes for a cheerful COM
mencement of the day. Informal
ity is the keynote of the room, be-
cause breakfast has become an in
formal affair, the one meal that
with proper care most closely en-
braces the ideal of delight.
Spacious windows, early sunlight
and refreshing lightness in the de-
coration insure a jolly ensemble.
If there be an enhancing view,
there cannot be too much of it,
and the room with glass on three
sides is almost certain to be a
cheerful spot, particularly when
there is a profusion of flowers in
window boxes.
Flowers and plants in the
breakfast room are almost an es-
sential, for along with their beau
ty and color, they have mystery
of life. Then, too, they link the
interior of the house with the out
of-doors, and render the successor
to the garden.

Discipline

One of the most important fac
tors in the maintenance of disci-
pline is the willingness on the part
of the employee to obey the orders
and instructions of the Company's
officials. Porters have no right to
Question the ACCESSIBILITY or justice
of the orders handed down to them
by their immediate superior offic-
ers in the Pullman service. If they
think an order is unjust, they
should bring 1t to the attention of
the representatives Of the Brother
hood. Under the terms of the
Agreement between the Brother
hood and the Pullman Company,
the proper steps will be taken by
the Brotherhood TO correct the con-
dition. Insubordination on the part
of porters is inexcusable and is
frowned upon by the Brotherhood,
Regardless of how much n given
official may be disliled by a por-
ter, 1t Is a porter's duty to respect
and obey his orders. Porters should
remember that the particular Of
fetal Is merely representative of
the Company and the Company is
giving orders to them through the
official. 1t does not make any diff
ference whether the official is
black or white, young or old, good
or bad, he is spokesman of the
Company and hence cannot be ig-
nored or opposed.
A vast enterprise like the Pull
man Company with its far-flung
divisions, requires the utmost dis
cipline. Without it the Company
would go to pieces and the indus
try, public and porters would suf-
fer. The Brotherhood realizes the
Importance of discipline and be-
comes greatly distressed whenever
porters show recklessness and I'M
concern about their doing their
part in making the Pullman enter
prise hit on all cylinders. If the
industry suffers from faulty and
poor coordination, the porters are
certain to suffer also. No group
of employees in the Pullman SER
vice have a greater responsibility
to submit to discipline than the
porters because upon them rest the
task of producing the service for
the public. If there is no porter on
the car no service will be produced.
But if porter is on a car and has
no sense of respect for discipline
either no service will be produced
or poor service will be produced.
1t is a matter of common know
ledge that the public would prefer
no service to poor service. There
fore, the public has no sympathy
with porter who has no under
standing or appreciation for in
dustrial discipline.

It will be remembered that the
Secretary of State and Mrs. Cordell
Hull each year give two dinners
for the diplomats. Having prefer
ence for smaller parties instead Of
the large and often unwieldly ones,
they have solved the question in
previous years by entertaining half
of the heads of the mission at one
