THE WORK Of THE HOME THE
NOBLEST CALLING
There is an impression prevwlcnt,
especially in the South, that you.
women may prow up' without anj
knowledge of cooking, cleaning, buy
ing, the care and feeding of the ch d
in the home, and yet, when the prop
er time comes, bv some sort of n
spiration, these young women become
irood homemakers and homekeeptrs.
This is true to a limited extent. A
energetic, business-like young woma
who sets about housekeeping inien,
frentlv. mav. after much worry, wnst
of time, money and energy, become a "
godo nouseKeeper even as

was possible for our mothers and
grandmothers? With the light that,
home-makers ot this generruon man
w ioni'P is throwing around the horn
and in the home, have we not a right
to expect stronger manhood and wo
manhood in the coming generation?
Nearly all professions are open to
women, but to engage in any one 01
them a woman must take the tram ;
ing necessary for that profession.
What professions can compare in
honor and in responsibility to that or
home-making and motherhood . Is not
the feeding and growth of a child s

not the responsibility of the moral and
religious training of the child 01 1

ance than tne reeaing 01
And yet we prepare tor all other pro-
fessions ami leave the highest of p
dod-givcn privileges iu iiapua,,.,
hit-and-miss methods. The home is the
unit of society, and as such it relates
to all human activities: nowever, it
velates primarily to the life physical,
mental, and moral life and happiness
ef the family.
If young women are taught how t
plan meals for the growth of bone,
cell ami blood, for the repair of was
tissue, for the elimination of waste,
ami how to prepare the same from a
hygienic, economic standpoint, is n ,
not reasonble to believe that sucn
training will produce better manag-
ment in the home, less incuon a.- j
result and stronger manhood and
w omanhood ?

Whence this superstitition

is a survival of the primeval cult of
Sun worship, which led the ancients
to classify anything outside the sphere

CARE OF POODS
George W. Perkins, chairman of the
Mayor's food supply committee, Xc'1.
York, has recently issued a pamphlet,
giving some valuable suggestions as
io the care of foods. The pamphlet
:-ays: "A food may contain sufficient
nourishment to give it much value am
yet if proper care is not taken of it
the food may become poisonous."
l-oocl is oiten contaminated d.v o
ing exposed to impure air, and to dust
and other filth from unclean streets
' and surroundings. Such food will or-
ten pronuce disease.
Mr. Perkins says the food may be
divided into three classes, first, foods
that spoil easily milk, cream, un
cooked fish, uncooked meat, certain
fruits, such as peaches and plums, and
vegetables that will wilt easily; sec
ond, foods that do not spoil so easily
eggs, butter, fruits, such as apples,
oranges and lemons, cooked meat, and
cooked, salted and smoked fisti; third,
foods that can ba kept a long time
with proper care flour, sugar, salt,
coffee, tea. spices and chocolate.
Milk and cream should never be left
uncovered or it will take up the odors
and flavors from other food, thus be
coming spoiled for table use. T'
cooked meat should be taken from the
wrapper in which it is bought and
wiped off with a clean cloth that has
been wrung out in cold water, afte'
which it should be wrapped in waxed
paper until it is ready for cooking.
Uncooked fish should never be placed
