UNIFORM NEATNESS URGED Housekeeping Expert Declares Hap piness of Home Depends in Part . on Preventing TTnnecessary Trial of Masculine Nerves. Young brides who would "live hap pily ever after" should attend the .lec tures to be given next week in the Eleventh-street Playhouse, where Mrs. Kate B. Vaughn will give a series of her famous addresses. The message for engaged girls, .for housewives, for teachers of home economics, for the business woman and for the cooks and would-be cooks is one that none can afford to miss. The lectures will be free, and will begin promptly at 2:30 o'clock. Note books and pencils will be in evidence. Better food is not the only theme taken up in Mrs. Vaughn's course of lectures, and cookery lessons to be given here next week under the aus pices of The Oregonian. She will dis cuss the subject of better homes and show how women's clothes and their house furnishings and many other fac tors inter into the making of a happy and successful home life. How the wife may hold the affection .and esteem of her husband as she gained the ad miration of her sweetheart, by always looking nice, is one of the things she teaches. - Any old dress for home wear is a slogan for the unhappy wife and shift less 'housekeeper, according to Mrs Vaughn.- She condemns the use of the bungalow apron as a substitute for a sensible, neat house dress or uniform and tells how to make a big oilcloth apron such as is worn in laboratories, which a woman can wear over her white uniform and do all kinds of cooking and cleaning in it and look presentable at a moment's notice by merely slipping off the big apron, which does not allow a particle of water or anything else go through on to the white dress, which is quite presentable enough to wear at all times. This apron will also protect the pretty afternoon dress so that it may be retained and please the eye of the husband at the evening meal. Another advantage i that the wife is all ready to go out with him immediately after dinner, and need not try his masculine nerves by asking him to wait until she gets dressed. Mrs. Vaughn will give six home- making and better-food lectures and cookery lessons in the Eleventh-street Playhouse the week beginning May 29 mobiles are asked for to convey the! elderly and feeble comrades to these I cemeteries, where the ritualistic serv ices will be held. At 2 P. M. memorial services will be conducted in tle Oddfellows' Hall. Rev. J. J. Walters, of the G. A. R., will de liver the memorial address. Rev. W. R. F. Browne will give the opening in vocation. Lincoln's Gettysburg address! will be rendered by Mrs. Wittle, Ad jutant Hamlin will read General Logan's order No. 11, establishing Me morial day. "Taps" will be sounded by the Boy Scouts. Sons of Veterans, spanisn-American veterans and school children are invited to take Dart in all tne exercises of the nay.
