w the Women
BY RUTH MILLETT

I'm deeply puzzled over the an
nouncement of a nationwide con-
test to find "the perfect house
wife" Contestants are invited to
write a letter Of $50 words or less
telling why Il think 1 am a per
feet HOUSEWIFE
Are there any contestants for
the honor? There's something
about being a housewife that
makes the adjective perfect
seem downright funny.
It's a job in which there's just
no room for perfection. Daily liv-
ing brings up too many trials, err
rors of judgment, poor timing and
conflicting demands to spoil the
picture OF perfection.
Are you a perfect housewife
when Mrs. Snooty comes calling
on the very afternoon you've de-
cided to let the children play train
by lining up the dining room
chairs in the living room?
Are you a perfect housewife
when the angel food cake falls or
the dishes wait to be washed while
you putter in the hover garden?
Are you a perfect housewife
when one of those days comes
along when everything goes
wrong?
How can any woman who man
ages a household and answers to
he call Of "Mommy" a hundred
times a day hope to rate anything
higher than satisfactory in her
job?
So who is going to enter the
contest-much less win it?

On board was shlpmate Edna
Matthes, who with great precau.
ton helped Billy at the wheel as
the rest of us tremhSed in our
cold bare feet as the marshes
doomed ahead. Really, Edna did
some okay steering, so truthfully
we rested assured of a good jour-
ney.
Watching for the rise of the
round, red, glowing moon were
Jane Head and her out-of-town
guests, "Goodie Nufer, who halls
from Goldsboro, Kemp Foster and
Harrison Barbee, both from
Greensboro. Kemp and Harrison
were visiting only owe the week
end, while Goodie plans to leave
later this week.
Cynthia Johnson and Harry Wei
lott fell into the leadership OF the
singing as the party swung into
the ever-present pastime of al
most any get-together. Jimmy Nc
Carl and Harry almost broke into
the great OLE version Of Home
On the Range as done only by
the s46ers, but due to pleas and
persuasions, such doings-up OF the
song which would've gone on and
on, were omitted as 'Temptation'
(the one and only jumped into

AS the supply of sandwiches, po-
tato chips. pickles. soft drinks,
and even Goodies brownies, d.
minished, the silvery light of the
moon fell on the round green wa
termelon. A long knife flashed as
the melon fell apart. The last rind
was chunked away, and we all
headed homeward. Seems as if
moonlight boat rides are holding
up 10 their tradition.
The other day as l hurried into
a store, I was surprised to see
the familiar face of one of our
old hometowners: Peggy Joyner
was the gal 1 recognized. Soon
Jean Pope met her and they hust-
led off for summer shopping.
Peggy visited Jean while she
was here, arriving "a week ago
and leaving this past Sunday; and
She is now living in Lewiston. She
moved away from the city two
years ago, and it certainly was
swell seeing her back in Whining
ton again!
Virgie Allen was also visiting
Jean during the same week. Vir-
gle moved away a few years ago,
but we sll remembr hr through
hr frequent visits to the city. She
left for Roxboro Sunday.
Last Tuesday afternoon as the
cloudy skies cleared, Nancy Win
bingham slung her raincoat over
her arm and boarded the bus for
Charlotte. The Winninghams have
moved to Charlotte, and Nancy
stayed on a few more days with
Margie Barnes. AS she will enter
W. c. in the fall, incidentally
rooming with Jean Stanley,
Nancy will get to see many of her
hometown friends who will be in
school there also.
I saw Nancy just before she left
last week, and she says she'll be
back sometime during the last of
the summer on visits with friends
here.
AS I passed the people sitting
on blankets at Station One Sun

The u. N. decision has focused
world attention on the forthcom-
ing World Zionist Congress which
will be called upon to deal with
the major aspect involved in trans
lating the decision into reality.
It is expected that the combined
American delegations to the Con-
gress will be the largest in the
history of the movement. Since
the overall size of the delegation
will be based on the total Shekolim
sold in this country, all efforts are
now being concentrated by the
seven Zionist organizations and
parties represented on the Central
Shekel Board upon rolling up an
unprecedented Shekel sale.
Only Stockholders will have
the right to participate in the
election of delegates of their choice
to the forthcoming World Zionist
Congress which will be held dur
ing 1913. 1t is pointed out that
an extraordinarily large Shekel
