Housework Brings Pleasure
As Well as Relaxation

Housework can be a rewardine
experience. Using SOAP and water
TO transform a dirty object into
a thing of beauty is as satisfactory
as planting a flower and watching
1t grow.
In her book, "A Search for Self, !"
Bonaro w. overstreet says, There
is everyday happiness in caring
for the friendly things of our en-
vironment, the kind Of feeling we
have when we hang freshly wash
ed curtains at the kitchen window
and stand approvingly back to look
at them; or about glassware that
we lift shining out Of the suds."
In such simple tasks, a woman
finds relaxation from war strain
and worry, and courage to face
whatever the future may hold.

he is unworthy. The adults talk
TO her as though It were merely

baffled because the girl goes right

out how undesirable such a love

agrees. Maybe she has suffered

the adults find she doesn't stop

foolish, silly. or stubborn and are
