Zx ZKHoman's 2as
BY ALLENE
For ovet six months, Mlsa Nellls
Vedder, a student In the Univer
sity of Chicago, got meals three
times a day, washed dishes ' three
times a day, and did alt the or
thodox '-redding up" while one as
sistant held a stop-watch and an
other counted her movementaV aB
she tried various methods.
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
