We often hear discussions re-
garding housewives trying to
hold down two jobs, one of keep
ing the home fires burning, and
work away from home. Now
some people can do this very
we'll if they are very good man
ayers.
Oft times it is necessary for
the wife to work to help out
with some household expenses,
or perhaps sickness has been a
reason for it or the high cost of
living. At the present time there
are not nearly the married folks
working as a few years before
the war But during the war the
married ladies surely demon
strated to the world that there
was little that they could not
do. Also there are wives who
worked at some jobs before her
marriage and housework be-
comes very monotonous at times
and little change does her a
world of good for a time. How
ever, one has to cultivate a
cheerful optimistic frame of
mind regarding housework.
No work is going to be agree
able or work such as you can
make it a success, if in your
heart you dislike it, and long for
work that you think is more in
keeping with your ability
If you wish to make a really
efficient home hold firm to the
conviction that instead of being
dull drudgery, homemaking in
all its details, is fascinating and
stimulating and that you are go
ing to apply to it your best in
telligence and culture. Ones
ideals are never realized in full
if they are worthy ideals.
No artist paints picture that
comes up to his ideal for his
ideal keeps just ahead of him.
There is always room for i'm.
provement, no matter how good
a housekeeper and homemakel
a woman may already be. She
should be eager not only to try
but persiStently keep on trying
to apply in her home the latest
and convenient methods anc
management already tried ano
proven in progressive home
building.
