T.hat is what 8 who are studying residence lighting have announced. They declare r that the farm kitchen can be a place ? Cf good cheer by reason of it- good a lighting Just as much as any city n kitchen. d But this is not possible with hero* si ene lamps or gas jets It can >?n!y he accomplished with el* trie lights. because electric lights provide the p Ideal illumination. j o Even with el*. trie iicht- the farm ti kitchen can b<? improperly Illuminated. It !CV * "T/vi Atg&SB&u Giare and Shadows Result F An unshaded electric light suspended 1 * by a curd from the celling will compel U the farm wife to work in her own ! shadow in every part of the room cx- ! cept directly beneath the light. The p glare wil? bring a strain upon the j eyes, resulting finally in a h-adache ^ and that well known "mean" feeling. Q No happy hearts from this! ( Shadows Are Not Wanted f The old style type of fixture shown !n the upper illustration is an ex*\ro- I pie cf a hurtful method of illumita 7 - tlon. which lighting specialists con- ; 1 demn. It is a combination gas and i electric stem fixture. This fixture i (causes s shadow to be thrown by thn c \worker on the work, because it is so I low. Apparently somebody got the Ides that the light is wanted on the i floor in the center of the room and e practically nowhere else. ? *' If this is the only source of eleo- r m. T* tricity in this kitchen, the farm wife, c ! she wants to use an electric iron. 1 must first unscrew the electric light t bulb, then screw in the plug of the [ Iron, making just enough extra work 1 to create a feeling that electricity is a c a.iau r ma.vau ui h convenience, j ; ir? 11 ^ L P; I1' ' 'l ,1 * ' rrI Excellent Illumination 1 . > u SUBSCRIBE TO YOUR 1 m ,Ae w 5K I^il^ like i* ^| T 4 CHEERY rs ARE RIGHT 1 on Cloudy Days if Electricity s Show How Shadoers and Be Avoided. md if she wants to nse the Iron after ark. her only light would be the un teady flicker of the gas. On all farms where electric cur nt Is obtainable, lighting engineers f the General Electric Company sug st that the kitchen be illuminated 5 shown in the lower picture It : ans more wiring than is usually one. even in ci*v homes, but the re^ ult is a lifetime of solid satisfaction First.'there is a center light, placed ery high, close to the ceilinc. That remits the light to be distributed al! ver the room, with absence of vexaous shadows.

Mazdas of 75 or 100 Watts If the kitchen is so largo that the enter light does not sufficiently 11umtnate every corner, then a wall iraeket over the sink and a drop light ver the kitchen cabinet will assist, llass shades are also recommended or these lights. In kitchens of average size, it has teen found that in the center light a 5-watt bowl enameled Mazda C lamp s best For the other lights, 25-watt ill frosted Mazda R lamps do the vork. The center light is turned on >r off by a wall switch, the others >y pull chains. On the walls at "A" are placed convenience outlets, or plugs, by which lectrlc fans. Irons, grills or egg beat rs can be connected up with a mininum of trouble. The lights in the ellar are turned on or off from the titchen at "B" in the picture.
