THE WOMAN WHO WORKS
VERNpNlA EAGLE

I
In this new order of things, with i
women, both married anil single. |
broadening their business activities, u
very Berious problem arises. It is the
problem of what, when, »nd where to
eat.
Breakfast Is always a hurry-up
for the men but much more so f<
woman who goes to business. Lunch-
eons, of course, are taken In the
lunchrooms and restaurants in the
business districts and are no problem.
But how about dinners? Shall they,
too, be restaurant meals or can they be
so planned that business women may
enjoy the home cooking of which they
are so foud? Take away the element
of haste and anxiety and ill its place
put carefully thought-out menus, well
planned and easily prepared, and home
dinners will again regain their high
favor with the working housewife.
One of the big worries Is frequently
with the milk. Did it come? Is It
fresh? Is it frozen? Has the milk­
man been paid? Are the bottles
washed and set out? However, there
is no cause for worry about milk. Why
not keep a dozen cans of evaporated
milk In your pantry? There are large
cans, equal to a quart of milk and
smaller cans that will meet the lesser
needs.
For evaporated milk Is just pure.
fresh milk with more than half the
water missing. This water can be re­
placed in a jiffy. If you so desire or
you can use It as cream If rich and

used by “The Woman Who Works"
for forming her plans for self help
and good home cooking.

In 1810, one fair; in 1925, two
thousand fairs.
In 1810, an attendance of about
five thousand; in 1925 an estimated
attendance of approximately twenty
five million.
These figures in n nutshell, tel!
the story of the marvelous growth of
the American fair from the humb
I-si beginning to its present-day
status as an important factor in ag
rii ultural education.
They are of
especial interest here in view of the
¡•on;caching Deer Island fair which
will be held Septembei 9 to 11.
U hile the fair idea has been taken
lo'ri of tremendously in the Vti'te,
States, it is not 'lative to this coun­
it.•. Fairs run back to ancient days
Inc in the old'ii times they were
r.i-ie after \he manner of a tara&r
or market, only held with 1 cm frt-
quency, very rnjc’i like the fairs in
’ 'gue in Germany an dotner Europ
eti. countries today. The American
f?:r traces its ancestry back ixly to
about the middle of the eighteenth
century, when a group of progres­
sive farmers in th-* Tees River val
ley in northeaste~n Britain joined to
I r<ng their livestwi; together for
comparison. It has been U-rmed the
first agricultural fair and was the
model after wh-rh were patterned
the hundreds of country fairs both
here anj in England.
