With the advent of a second child,
the mother may feel that she can
never love another equally with her
first-born; that it is bordering on
disloyalty to the first one to devote
time and affection to the second. But
Mother Nature has ~foreseen that
eventuality and given to mother
love an expansive quality which n
compasses all children alike.
Days Are Varied
To the casual onlooker it might
appear that housekeeping is a mo-
notonous round of mental tasks,
and sometimes it may even
so to the weary homemaker, but
in reality, no two days are alike,
and there is little time for complain
ing and self-pity.

The farm wife has a greater va
riety in her day, perhaps, than the
city She raises chickens and
turkeys, bakes the family's bread,
churns the butter, tends a large gar
den, preserves large quantities of
food and cooks for extra help during
busy seasons.
With the coming of electricity to
the farms, all these burdens have
been lightened. Many footsteps and
much time are saved by the use of
home freezers, automatic dishwash-
ers, electric ranges and sewing ma
chimes.
In all fairness to herself and her
family the homemaker must not let
her full-time job rob her of outside
contacts. Time spent in reading, club
work, church activities and social
affairs fill a vital need in her exist
ence.
The reward is great. Security, the

What Shall / Do?

JUNE IS THE MONTH of roses,
brides and careers.
It was while waiting in a beauty
shop that we read the description
of the wedding which appears on
this page. We thought it so simple
and charming and lovely that we
wanted our readers to share it.
This is also the graduation season.
It is the time when young people
are wondering what work they will
prepare for.
There are many interesting and
challenging fields for the young
woman today. For that reason we
have asked a few to write of their
particular fieldS-the rural school
teacher, the librarian and the home
maker.
Homemaking is the job which be-
longs particularly to women, and as
the high school boy once said, he
didn't see why all girls didn't take
home economics and then if they got
married they would be prepared to
cook and sew and keep house.
The opportunities in home o
Monies are attractive and myriad.
with every new scientific devel-
opment adding to the completely
of modern life and homemaking,
home economics is increasingly i'm
portant in business and education"
Charlotte Biester, chairman, home
economics department, University of
California, has written an excellent
little book entitled Opportunities
in Home Economics" listing the
many fields: Apparel arts and tex
tiles, business, home service, mer-
chandising, dietetics and nutrition,
food production and service, home
extension service, housing, home
furnishings and interior decoration,
promotional work, journalism, pho
Biography, radio, public health and
social service, research, teaching.
So if any girl is not quite sure OF
what she wants to do, let her con-
slider this great field in which prep
aration will be two-fold, as the high
school boy suggested.

The HOmemaker
By MARIAN LONG
Chouteau County

THE CAREER of homemaker and
mother is which requires three
consecutive eight-hour shifts per
day, but if well performed, it pays
the highest dividends of any career
known.
Homemaking begins with the mar
rage ceremony and the desire of
two people to create their own niche,
sheltered from the rest of the world.
The bride gathers about her the es-
sentials of comfort and pleasure and
by daily effort, maintains them on
a level which brings satisfaction to
both her husband and herself.
She shares with him her hopes
and aspirations, and he likewise
shares with her the daily problems,
the success and disappointments
which he encounters in the bust
ness world. She gains confidence in
her own ability and Judgment and
takes pride in their cumulative DOS
sessions.
First. the Children
Children, are, of course, the most
highly priced of such possessions.
Fortune has smiled broadly on the
woman who holds her new baby
close, giving thanks to the Almighty
for her great blessing. Her hourly
vigilance in the care of the tiny
child is repaid many times over by
the qualification of watching his de-
velopment and growth.
The lives of both parents revolve
around this new entity for which
they are entirely responsible. AS he
grows, their responsibility increases,
for they must help him to adjust
himself to his family, school and
community. Nourishment for his
physical, mental and spiritual de-
velopment is theirs to provide. His
mother nurses him through broken
limbs, contagious diseases and dis

love of husband and children, the
respect of her neighbors and the
great satisfaction of being a vital
cog in the wheel of life, make a
supreme career that of homemaker
and mother.

The Home Ec. Teacher
By RUTH WOODRUFF BROWN

"HOW DO YOU like teaching?"
they asked me after a month or two
of teaching, coping with five classes
a day, a few unexpected teas and all
the other things which are part of a
home economics teachers life.
My answer was then, as it was
months later, 81 love it."
1t seems to me the single outstand-
ing characteristic of home economics
training is its practical value to the
girl who takes it. Though I was afraid
to do my practice teaching, my in
structors had done their work well.
My urS had been thorough
enough that after the first few days
I was enjoying the girls and the
classes.
During those four years of train
ing, those of us who were teaching
majors had been instructed in the
art of living better and teaching
others how.
Social Grace
What girl doesn't dream of hav-
ing lovely clothes and wearing them
well. Doesn't every girl also dream
of being able to preside at a dinner
with the grace of a lady? These goals
and many more are the end toward
which a home economics teaching
major works. AS she takes courses
In clothing, foods, child develop
ment, house planning and many
other subjects she gradually sees
these goals come in sight.
| suppose the course which seems
most interesting and practical from a
high school girls point of view is
living in the home management
house. All home economics gradu-
ates-to-be must live in this house
maintained by the college and ac-
tually do the work there. They man
age the house, cook the meals, do
the marketing, clean, and at some
colleges they have a baby the girls
care for. Here, too, as in her foods
class, he must entertain guests al
teas, dinner parties or other social
functions. AS a result of these expe-
riences she is prepared to be at ease
doing the things which will be her
duty when she takes a Job.
During those years in college she
also becomes accustomed to living
and working with people. This
ables her to find real joy in work.
ing with and counseling her stu
dents.
Plenty of Variety
Another nice feature of teaching
home economics is the opportunity
o originality. Though you may
teach the same basic material again
and again, it can be taught in a new
and different way. There certainly
Is no necessity for boredom.
n home economics is a contin-
ually growing field, it is a career
which keeps one "on her toes" to be
abreast of new developments. This
is a true challenge and is n which
does not die when the teacher leaves
the profession.
I have recently become a home
maker and am even more enthusi-
astic about taking home economics

the occasion of another visit.
With warmest personal regards.

Federal rent controls and so did the
80th. But both of them tried to cut
down the extent of the control and
return the whole subject gradually
to the states.
(9) The 81st Congress did author
ize the Commodity Credit Corpora
tion to provide storage space for
crops. 1t had had this power but had
never used it until it was made a
political issue in 1948.
(10) The President claims parti-
cular credit for the bill permitting
him to re-organize the Government,
but of course this grew out of the
S0th Congress resolution introduced
by Senator Lodge of Massachusetts,
and Congressman Brown of Ohio,
creating the Hoover Commission.
ON the other hand, what has
" happened to Mr.. Truman's
Fair Deal Program? The Congress
has ignored the Spence bill giving
power to fix wages. ration COM
modities and put the Government
into the steel busines and other
businesses. Both House and Senate
have rejected the Brannan Plan.
Both House and Senate have
refused to repeal the Taft-Hartley
Law and thereby restore arbitrary
powers and special privileges to
labor union officials.
Mr.. Truman's proposal for social
izing and nationalizing medical
care in the medical profession has
been ignored by the committees.
Universal military training has
been forgotten. The President s
request for more tax money to
spend has also been rejected.
MIR. TRUMAN made his princi-
1VI pal issue in 1948 against the
work of the 80th Congress. The
81st Congress has now approved
that work. The truth is that, while
this Congress is more radical than
the last one a majority of its men,
bers still disagree fundamentally
with the philosophy of Mr.. Truman
and the CIO Political Action Com
mittee.
Congress believes in improving
our present system instead of de-
stroying it. 1t is determined not
to establish in this country a
sOcialistic government like that
in Great Britain.
The issue can only be determined
by the people of the United States
when they elect the 82nd Congress
in November 1850.

extension of the European Recovery
Program. The 80th Congress
initiated it.
(3) The S1st Congress extended
the Reciprocal Trade Agreements
Act, but so did the S0th. The 81st
killed some mild restrictions de-
signed to prevent the use Of the
Presidents power in such way as
to destroy any American industry.
This hardly seems a subject for
commendation.
(D The S1st Congress enacted
the North Atlantic Treaty, but
it was the direct result of the
Vandenberg resolution adopted
by the 80th Congress-.
(5) The S1st Congress ratified
the International Wheat Agreement
which had been acted on by the
S0th Congress. 1t involves the sale
of wheat, however, at $1.2O a
bushel, which is not a very accept
able indication of wheat values to
farmers, and involves a subsidy of
$84 million a year, which is not
very pleasant news for the tax
payer.
(6) The S1st Congress adopted
the Military Assistance Program,
to which l am myself opposed.
However, it cut down the Presi-
dents request for money, and it
rejected violently the Presidents
first demand that he be given I'M
limited power to distribute Army
and Navy equipment in unlimited
quantities to any nation in the
world.
CD The 81st Congress enacted
the housing program which had
been approved by the Senate of
the S0th Congress. In fact, l
wrote the bill nearly four years
ago.

power and responsibility, the
substitution of federal paternal-
ism for individual self-reliance
and growth. More and more, the
individual is relieved of the res
possibility and burden of his
own support, which alone can
keep him strong and fit to be
free, and persuaded to accept in
stead the services of government
which finally waste away his
powers and abilities through dis
use.
The final tragedy is that we
pay for our own destruction.
Every dollar that the federal
government gives US in one form
or another, subsidies and what
have you, must finally cost the
taxpayers two dollars or more
out of future earnings. 1t is a bad
buy to have government do
wastefully what we can do much
more economically for ourselves.
England is already learning
that social medicine is costing
the average family more for less
efficient service. In industry aft
er industry, production goes
down as the government takes
over, and if it were not for the
charity of the United States, the
English Socialist-Labor govern
ment would have fallen by now.
We are actually helping to keep
alive socialist welfare govern
ment at the ultimate cost of des-
troying England as nation.
And, when America, having
dissipated her resources and sap
ped the vitality of her people,
needs the kind of help we are
now giving England, what coun-y j
try in all the world will do forI
us what we are doing for theI
English socialists? We are the
last of the countries able to give
such help, and when our turn
comes to ASK HELP there will
be none left to give it.
Except perhaps Uncle Joe,
with his sardonic grin, who can
then take us into the family of
slave nations worshipping the
pagan bones of Karl Marx.

WISE or
OTHERWISE
BY E. o. BOND

Opportunity to some people
means getting out of doing some
thing.
The best way to overcome evil
is by doing good.
So far I've seen the hat pin,
the hair pin and the rolling pin
pass on.
Some women manage to get
husband and then just keep on
managing after they get him.
The task of the church is to
build character in the individual;
the duty of the state is to pro-
vide a favorable environment for
this task.
The gem cannot be polished
without friction, no man perfect
ed without trials.
Our modern means of COM
munication have made the world
neighborhood; but no power as
yet has been able to make it a
brotherhood.
A fellow rarely ever forgets
anybody who owes him anything.
The real tragedy of life is not
in being limited to one talent,
but in the failure to use that one
talent.
Home is a place where man
can say anything he pleases be-
cause no one pays any attention
to him anyway.
