A little work now, . . . this Do you sometimes feel that the housekeeping part of your home-making chores take too much of your time? Here are some suggestions to take out of that care - worn category an put you into the care - free class! First of all, don't expect your home to be immaculate everywhere, always. Concentrate on the area that is most important to you. Other members of the family should be responsible for other areas; their own bedrooms for example. Next, forget about "woman's work" and "man's work". Maybe Junior is better at dishwashing than mowing the lawn. If so, let that be his regular assignment. Now go through your home-room by room. Remember that the fewer unused things you have, the less work you have. Look at each "frill" and ask yourself it it's worth the effort. Develop the habit of cleaning as you go. After you wash up, you may want to clean the lavatory. At least rinse the dishes right after you use them. Make the bed as soon as you get out of it. Pick up in the living room and den each evening before you go to bed. You may be amazed at how much time this will save you...to say nothing of the extra steps. Develop your own routines. (remember "Cheaper by the Dozen")? The principles are the same as those used by time and motion experts. You can work out your own rather easily and quickly by trial and error. Scheduling your work gives you more time. ... whether you plan the time for all your chores or just for those extra jobs. Next time you redecorate or purchase a new item for your home stop to consider how easy it will be to care for. Consider built-ins or shelves against the wall. These require much less dusting and straightening. ADDING MACHINES Since 1923 ALFERNANDEZ OFFICE EQUIPMENT Authorized Factory Agent Name Brands 220 E.

This invitation, formerly reserved for close friends of the family, is now extended with propriety to all guests in every circle of society. Entertaining in the kitchen has become an accepted social custom mainly through the changes in home design and kitchen planning. The open plan which calls for the kitchen to be integrated with the living area of the home and the attractive styling of today's kitchens have not only altered the mode of family life but set new patterns of hospitality. Eating areas in modern kitchens are available in many arrangements. The most popular is probably the divider bar which separates the work center from the formal dining area. This bar with stools or pull-up chairs, depending on its height, is used during the day for breakfasts, lunches, and children's between-meals snacks. In the evening it can become a service bar for appetizers and beverages and later a midnight snack bar. Some homes have formal snack bars which extend from the kitchen into the living area. These bars are often provided in addition to pull-out tables or other eating facilities where children are fed and adults have breakfast or lunch. Other types of eating areas include built-in tables; pull-out tables, some with pull-out bench-to-complement and harmonize Although many kitchens are done in gay decorator colors, the trend is to natural grain stains that match the finish of furniture in adjoining rooms. Good kitchen planning is a science. Arrangements of work and serving centers, location of major appliances for maximum efficiency as well as beauty, types of storage and utility cabinets and many similar decisions are best left to the experienced judgment of a kitchen specialist after prelimin- Cover 'Defects' With Proper Wallpapers Here are some sound ideas on how room appearance may be altered through proper use of wallpaper. 1) Make Ceiling Look Lower — Use dark or medium-dark color, such as olive green or mocha, or use a wide decorative wallpaper border to separate the ceiling from the side walls. 2) Make Ceiling Look Higher — A light color will help, but side-wall patterns which lead the eye upward, such as vertical stripes, are more effective. 3) Make Room Appear Larger — Small scale designs in light colors seem to push back the walls. Light, solid colored papers like textures, tone-on-tone ink embosses — are excellent stretchers of space. 4) Unify Room With 'Broken Wall Area' — unify all conferences and discussions with the home owner. Get the Proper Power Mower For Lawn Needs Be sure to choose your power mower for your greatest needs rather than by price or other consideration. There are two major categories of mowers: electric and gasoline powered. Of these there are three distinct types . . . rotary, reel and hammerknife. The reel is excellent for fine smooth turfs, but does a poor job on uneven or tough lawns. The type not only turns the blades, also propels the wheels. Operating expenses are lower than for other types. The rotary is best where rough or uneven ground must be trimmed, or where tough grass abounds. Its initial cost is about 30 per cent cheaper than reel mowers. Ideally, electric mowers should be used only where the distance from lawn edge to house is more than 100 feet; where there are few shrubs and trees to get the way of the cord. This type about 20 per cent cheaper than gasoline mower. Both reel and tary types are available. On lawns such a unit may be a shad hazard.

Home Appliances Prove Costly to Home Owners “Underfed appliances” are a frequent cause of extra service calls to fix washers, dryers, freezers and refrigerators, according to the service department of the Maytag Company, manufacturer of home laundry appliances. An “underfed appliance” is one which is not getting its needed electricity or gas requirements in order to perform at peak efficiency. For example, her electric dryer may begin to take longer to finish a load of clothes than it has in the past... the spin cycle speed in the washer may slow down. Within the year, a serviceman has perhaps been at the house two or three times to replace burned-out units. Compressor motors in the freezer and the refrigerator seem to run laboriously for longer periods than usual. Fuses begin to blow. On gas appliances, pilot lights go out or burners don't light readily — full-scale "appliance starving" has set in. When Electric appliances act up from this cause, the problem usually can be traced to "low voltage." Frequent causes of low voltage are: 1. Overloaded circuits — too many appliances all plugged into the same line. 2. Extension cords too small — Cords aren't heavy enough to carry required amount of voltage, or are too long. The voltage gets lost and theres a possible fire danger from overheating due to wire resistance. 3. Loose, defective, or corroded snacks. In the evening it can become a service bar for appetizers and beverages and later a midnight snack bar. Some homes have formal snack bars which extend from the kitchen into the living area. These bars are often provided in addition to pull - out tables or other eating facilities where children are fed and adults have breakfast or lunch. Other types of eating areas include built - in tables; pull - out tables, some with pull - out benches; wall bars; and peninsular bars. Many of these are covered with new plastic materials which are easy to clean, stainfree, and resistance to hot dishes, cold glasses, alcohol, and cigarette burns. The plastics are available in a wide range of patterns and colors Ideally, electric mowers should be used only where the distance from lawn edge to house is more than 100 feet; where there are few shrubs and trees to get the way of the cord. This type about 20 per cent cheaper than gasoline mower. Both reel and tary types are available. On lawns such a unit may be a shade hazard. The price of a power mower pends on the width of the swathticks (measured in inches), as well as the type of construction the engine.

Frequent causes of low voltage are: 1) Overloaded circuits — too many appliances all plugged into the same line. 2) Extension cords too small — Cords aren't heavy enough to carry required amount of voltage, or are too long. The voltage gets lost and theres a possible fire danger from overheating due to wire resistance. 3) Loose, defective, or corroded fuses — pool electrical conductivity at fuse box cuts down the voltage getting through. 4) Voltage drop at power company — sometimes, during peak electric usage periods in the day, power company generators may get overloaded. Usually this situation is promptly corrected by the utility. Voltage drops, even if prolonged, will not ruin an appliance, but will take their toll in cost of frequent service calls and higher electric bills. If a housewife detects low voltage symptoms in appliance efficiency — she should contact her power company representative or an electrical contractor. Here's a simple way to determine if there is adequate power to run appliances. Count the number of fuses in the fuse-box to get the number of separate circuits wired into the house. Six to eight circuits are usually adequate, and eight to ten are even better. GUARANTEED FOR 15 YEARS! Aireloom's Hollandaire has long been the choice of the world's leading luxury hotels.
