When the six mouths were up Bhe wrote a thesis about it, aimed to ehow that most, If not all house wives, since the day of Eve, had wasted millions of yards of energy and time, ail told, by their hit-and-miss methods in domestic duties. MIsb Vedder's thesis discussed three method of table setting, dish washing and general "redding up," the slowest method requiring 38 minutes, 8 seconds, and 1954 mo tions for a day's worth of dishes in the average family of four, the fastest requiring only 22 minutes, 31 seconds, and 1015 motions. Tho Better Way While the public has not as yet been taken into real confidence as to the difference in the methods, it Is revealed that for the house wife who Insists on "doing" the dishes after each meal, though the author implies that she really thinks the ouce-a day method is most eftlclent, the preferable proc ess is to have all the dishes pass ed at the end of the meal to mama, who scrapes them as she places them on a tea-tray ' at her right. They are then ' rolled toto the kitchen, given a rapid cold rinse, washed under the tap In the hot water, placed in a wire drained with hot rinsing water poured over them, and thus steam-dried. Miss Vedder intimates that "wiping the dishes" is as archaic as making bread or sausage. Now, harmless and innocent aB this treatise seems, one can imag ine no more brilliant scarlet flag wafted in the faces of womankind, for if there's one thing which the mass of women resent it's any other woman s' intimation that she knows more about how housewifely-duties should be performed than does she. Two Matrons Entertain' for Meeting D. A. R. Mrs. Wm. M. Campbell and Mrs. W., E. Boise entertained Monday .afternoon at the home of the for mer on North Jackson street for the meeting of Umpqua Chapter of the D. A. R. Plans for the biennial party were laid, the affair to be an event of Saturday, May 4. Miss Adeline Stewart is chairman of the committee In charge ot arrange ments. The chapter voted to have a book shower for the veterans' library at the Soldiers' Home also at this time, each member contri buting a book. Spring flowers made a pretty setting In the rooms of the Camp bell home for the refreshment hour and tho members were serv ed at small tables. liam S. Gould. Jr.. sponsored about the chic-est one I happened to see. It was a delicate beige, with a cape that extended well around the front. H had. In addition a very smart shaved caracul collar with roundltm ends. Her soft felt hat had quite a wide, rolled brim. A Doggy Array The Guernsey Currans, Jr., were a pleasant sight, he in his simirt hiKh-hat attire, she in a Rrey outfit that fentured the longer skirt length, the somi-princess line rith low flare and the off-the-face col lar that Parts advocates. Her bloeves, too, were frracet'ul and feminine In their cuffs. She led out as eute a pair of little Scotties as I've had the pleasure of seeing this season. I.elyh Tasking sponsored a soft ly tailored coat of the modified rodlnsoto variety, of a novelty blu ish mixture with a snug little high tollar of krlmmer. Styles Are Varied No ftina.le style was predomi nate in the parade. Popularity of the smalt hat was noticeable, though Mrs. James Htlssell Lowell wore a charming black lace straw one with a medium brim all around and Mrs. A. H. Hunt. Jr's. navy blue balltbuntl had at lea: a three inch brim in its narrowest portion. Incidentally. Mrs. Hunt wore one of those double small sable chokers that every woman craves. Footgear was extraordinarily smart on Faster. Barbara Vail wore handsome prey suede pumps with elaborate cut steel buckles In octagonal shape. Mrs. Charles Ilarnett's wore two-eyelet oxfords. in brown to match the bandintts on the cute little dressmaker's suit of kaahA. Mrs. Leonard Cox had svelt looking four eyelet, open worked suede shoos. Mrs. Law rence Copley Thaw's small feet were lovely In black sharkskin one straps. With more elaborate cos tuming, it looks as if society will concentrate on beautifully made footgear that is. nevertheless, smart tor Its situ Illicit; . SUMNER I know- a certain daughter who has struggled, really tactfully, for j several years to convert her moth ler to the theory of a dish drainer as simpler and more sanitary than "drying" with a towel, and nothing in the bosom of the family pre cipitates auch quarreling. w I know a mother-in-law who doesn't speak to her son-in-law be cause ho essayed to tell her daugh ter thaf ceriain of her housekeep ing methods handed on as tradi tions from mother were all wrong, mostly because they were , dissimi lar from certain methods of his own mother. Wise Cracks Due Many raucous wise cracks will be made, too, at the idea of a sci entific collegiate thesis on the sub ject of dishwashing. Queerly en ough, as many wise cracks will be made by women who like . to pre tend that they are engaged in a serious and noble profession as by men who have an idea that domes tic gimcrackery is nothing more than a sweet ail-day sucker. Which Is exactly why there are more wasted motions in the job domestic today than in any other. Women themselves have done more to hamper the Bame advance in sub stitutes for drudgery that has been Unade in the outside-the-home realm than anyone else. Sometimes one wonders if sub consciously It, isn't a whole-hearted wifely attempt to make the world cling to the idea that domestic drudgery is just that and nothing more, so that wifely rewards and appreciations will be greater than If It Is generally accepted that they don't have it so hard after all. For Instance, just how many hausfraus will really try to find out which dishwashing method saves them the 15 minutes, 37 seconds, and 939 motions a day? "What does she know about it?" they'll ask, and perhaps they're right. Timing one's movements in a classroom is one thing. Trying to wash dishes with the kids fighting, and a peddler at the door is an other. Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Page Celebrate Anniversary Date Wednesday Mr. and Mrs. W. E.
