AN EPIDEMIC left our mother,
Mrs. Elfrieda Nelson Briden-
baugh, an orphan at the age of
z, which may have laid the
foundation for her keen interest
in "helping OUT many other
young folks in addition to her
own children.
Eldest of these is Mrs. r. M.
Showalter of Worland, Wyo., who
came to live with our family
when she was IL. She attended
Morningside college, Sioux City,
Ia, which was mothers alma
mater.
In our immediate family are
my two brothers, DR.. Richard
Baird, who is associated with our
father in the Billings clinic, DR..
Robert Nelson, a practicing physi-
clan at Powell, Wyo., and myself.
A brother, John Harlan Jr., died
in infancy. There are six grand
children.
Twenty-Five girls and four boys
have lived in our parents home
for year or more at time.

Kitchen Trends

KITCHEN PLANNING, like any
other activity which centers around
the home, changes as family habits
change. Yesterdays extreme trends
become today's accepted necessities
as daily usage proves the merits Of
new products, new equipment, new
methods. Progress is through cycles.
Within third of century we are
back in grandmother kitchen with
new methods, new equipment and
new ideas. Grandmother's kitchen
was large. Most of the meals were
eaten there; the laundry was done
near the back door. There was no
coordination of working areas. The
work table was against one wall,
cook stove on the other side Of the
room. Utensils and supplies kept in
buttery or pantry in the far corner.
But it was friendly place with a
rocking chair where anyone could
rest for a moment. The sewing ma
chine stood in one corner because
the kitchen table was the best place
to cut out dress. There was prob
ably hanging lamp over that table
and everyone gathered around it
fall and winter evenings mother
with her sewing, father with the
newspaper and the children with
their lessons.
Then came the era Of the small
surgical kitchen in spotless and
monotonous white. No one wanted
to stay in it any longer than neces-
sary. Eating was in dining room,
resting, reading and studying were
either eliminated or pursued else
where. Clothes were washed and
Montana farmer-stockman., 1952-05-01

ironed in the basement or in the
glassedin back porch.
Now we seem to be coming back
to the dining-living kitchen combi-
nation. In study of farm housing
needs and preferences made in
north central states, about 80 per-
cent of the homemakers indicated
that they would want to be able to
serve meals in the kitchen.
The U-shaped kitchen puts the
three work centers, ID storage and
preparation center, ~ cleanup CEN
ter and go cooking and serving, in a
very compact area. Even the
laundry equipment may be included
in the new kitchen plan. The
streamlined enameled cabin ct
grandmother would never guess to
be an automatic washing machine
and a drier where clothes are put
in soiled and come out an hour later
clean and dry, ready to be ironed
or used.
There is plenty of space left for a
dining table, a desk, comfortable
chairs, a sewing cabinet and other
accoutrements of living.
A big honey kitchen where all
the members of the family and a
few extras besides can assemble has
a warmth and friendliness that
never was in the little sterile cubic1e
without soul. Anyone can bring
a friend or the group and there will
always be a snack, whether a cup of
coffee or ginger cookies. Wise
parents know what being welcome
to bring friends home does for a
young person.
Is it not true that the members
of a household where you just
naturally gravitate to the kitchen
are very likely to be friendly, warm
hearted folks?-ANY MARTIN.

are for baking dishes, each shelf
just wide enough for the bowl it was
to hold. The right end has shelves
just deep enough for cups and
glasses and more bowls.
In the middle section the bottom
shelf is for the three kettles / use
most often, and above that the
dishes are on three shelves. The
overall measurements are 6 feet by
feet. This makes the bottom of
the cupboard just 35 inches from
the floor. The table 81 by 35 by 26
inches fits against the end of the
cupboard. This divides the kitchen
from the dining area.
We used plastic finished wall
board in a robins egg blue on the
wall back of the cupboard and on
the table top, sides and end. The
inside of the cupboard is painted
peach to match walls and woodwork
above cream plastic wall board on
the lower part Of the walls.
Sliding doors were a must. Every
one thought they would be dirt
catchers. I consulted hardware
clerk about steel track suitable for
the weight of doors / wanted but he
did not know what wanted. / was
determined to have sliding doors.
AS turned to leave, a man at the
end of the counter came over and
said, Lady, you have mighty fine
idea and have the track you are
looking for"
In week it was delivered. The
track fits above the doors with small
wheels on the door sliding in the
track. The bottoms Of the doors are
grooved for a small slide to keeI
them from swinging out. Since
wanted four doors, it was necessary
to have a double track. It really
pays to be persistent if one has ar
idea.
The outside Of the cupboard wal

AFTER OUR HOUSE burned five
years ago, we bought an old house
which we have been working on
ever since. The present kitchen was
a bedroom. The window had to be
changed and a door cut We filled
in the window at top and bottom
and then cut it out on either side
to make it 81 inches by 48 inches.
The outside door was cut directly
opposite the living room door. A
window in the door gives plenty of
light in the 10 foot by IS foot room.
The large window is in the south
and door in the west. The arrange
ment leaves 8 feet 9 inches in the
dining area and 6 feet 10 inches in
the kitchen area. The dining area
is papered. The table before the
window gives wonderful view Of
the mountains. (See cut ~

years have had kitchen plan in

top 20 inches of the cupboard we
installed, has its own doors and is
for such items as the large rooster,

A mass of cool air brought relief
from intense heat to many North

But no break was in sight for
the sun-baked Southern half of
the Nation.
The toll of deaths in three days

Relief also was expected in New

ALI Records Set.
Temperatures were generally
around the 100-degree mark again
yesterday in most Of the afflicted

But the cool air which earlier
moved across the Canadian bor-

parts of Indiana, Illinois and
Ohio. Temperatures, in the COS
for three days, dropped as much
as 20 degrees.
There also was some cooling in
parts of New England and East

Temperatures quickly tumbled as
