A ER Rest for Women, ecnmeeutnn aan There isan old adage to the effect that “a woman’s work is never done.” [believe that the per type has construed this to mean that she doesen’t do her work; but, fortunately, or unfor- tunately, that is not the case: The average house-keeper’s work is never finished; there seldom comes to atime inthe day when éverything is laid aside for a little relaxation,when the hands and brains are free from care. There has been much talk of recreation and rest forthe business man, for the business woman, eyeu fcr the children. But how about the housekeeper? Doesen’t the eight huur rule—eight hours for work, eight hours for sleep apply to ber? Assuredly it does, and nulesst here is relaxation every day, and absolute rest from household cares the homemaker cannot hope to accomplish the best work in her home life. lt 1s a slovenly heusekeeper who sits down to read a novel while her breakfast dishes are yet unwash- ed; yet she is no more neglectful of her highest duty than the wo- 1man who never rests.—Ex.
