MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. rEDFORD, OREGON. TUESDAY. MARCH 5. 1935.
Repair Projects Set in Mo
tion Lengthy Chain of
Benefits With Thousands
Participating Says Expert
The modernization dollar circu- j
lat through many channels follow
ing tha Inception of a repatr project, j
with the attending benefits to bust- j
ness. Industry and labor as a whole. !
E. L. Gilbert, eastern editor of Amer- :
lean Builder magazine, points out.
Says Mr. Gilbert:
"The contractor who gets the
money first, divides It about equally
between local merchants who furnish
materials and labor, the building
products merchants who are dealers
tn lumber, hardware, paint, electric I
wire and fixtures, plumbing goods, 1
sand and gravel, cement and mortar. :
roofing materials, brick, glara and
other Items, deduct a small amount
for their profit.
Workers Get Share
"At the same time these merchants
employ clerks, stenographers, truck
drivers, bookkeepers, sales people and
miscellaneous workers, all of whom
receive wages, salaries or commis
sions. In some cases local dealers pass
the remaining money along to Job
bers or wholesalers who employ other
office, traveling and shipping room
workers. The balance of the money
eventually reaches the manufacturers
who employ thousands of factory
hands, office workers, traveling sales
men and others. The manufacturers,
of course, must pass part of the
money they receive along to opera
tors of timber camps, mines, quar
ries, and other manufacturers who
produce such basic products as steel.
Iron, gypsum, lime, wood-pulp, etc.
Thousands Benefit
"At the end of Us trip through
the business world the money spent
for home repairs and modernization,
for instance, will be found to have
brought a bit of cheer and well-being
Into the lives of many, many thou
sands of other people in all kinds of
business."
Transportation also gets Its share
of the modernization dollar, Mr. Gil
bert points out, thereby helping to
pay the wages of railway, steamship
and other common carrier workers.
Also aided are the businesses not us
ually associated with building at all,
men as the great fire Insurance com
p&nles, banks and brokers, lawyers
and publishers and others Indirectly
serving the building Industry.
STEPS OF HOUSEWIFE
REDUCED BY MODERN
PLANS FOR KITCHEN
Science has entered the kitchen.
In the planning and arrangement of
that psrt of the home in which the
housewife spends so much of her
time, architects and home economists
have accomplished much In recent
years, wJth the saving of time and
steps as their objective.
The poorly located sink or refrig
erator may add two or three tps for
the housewife each time she uses
them, or the lack of cupboard and
work space at certain point tn the
kitchen might easily double the labor
entailed In the preparation of a sin
gle meal. In one year this would b
comparable to preparing and clearing
some 3.000 meala Instead of the aver
age 1.905.
The best planned kitchen have
the three major piece of equipment
refrigerator, sink and range eo ar
ranged with work space, that steps
are reduced to a minimum.
Entering the kitchen from the out
side, the refrigerator should be flrt.
then a work ?pace with the sink and
drip board next In line. Another
work spaoe should separate this from
the range, snd it irlght be a good
plan to have still another work space
between the range and the dining
room door.
If the outjde door and dl nine -room
door are close together, going through
the kitchen will not interfere with
work. This, however, 1 not always
possible, and when it la necessary to
separate the line of equipment wltn
a door, create a work upsce by the iso
lated piece If that Is possible. Sep
arate the range snd sink rather than
the sink and refrigerator.
Work spares can be built-in cab!
net with shelves above, or they can
be small work tAbiex,
Tne placement of smaller equip
ment in logical places will also save
step. Staple s'ipplles and ua uten
slla should be at the refrUerator work
space. Tea. coffee, measuring spoon
pot, pans and coffee pot should be
in the work space. Dlhcs. etc, at the
sink.
This kitchen arrangement can
eaaily be placed in a room of ten
feet by twelve or nine by fourteen
leaving ample space for a desk and
chair where receipt and menu books
can be kept and meal p.anned.
