One : reformer saw evidence that the "old home is gone; it has become just a place, to jrq and change your clothes mid dash away somewhere; else;. 'more and more the state is being asked .to take over the' mother's job." As if by magic the thing instantly became the battle cry of the hosts of alarmists, reformers and tho public-spirited. Who is competent to rentier judgment upon subject 80 far-reaching and immense? The thing is preposterous and ridiculous on its face. There are in the neighborhood '.f 22,000,000 homes in the t'nited States, and who will say with authority that there aii not as mimy good homes ti ilay as ever in the past?. Who has accurate and compre hensive figures on which to base even the statement that the average person spends, less time in the home in this so-called jazz age than in the waltz ago? There are 'many. reasoiis-tho radio, phonograph and i icttur newspapers, magazines and inToks are some of them for believing that the homo is growing pioie popular, ldit suppose the. contrary, is true. There are many worth while things in this' life not found in the home. As for the charge that "the state is being asked to take over the mother's job," the impression is quite general that the "asking" is being done, not by the. mothers, but by tho "workers" from whom comes the complaint.
