Adele Garrison “My Husband's Love” The lOason Katie Wan Troubled About the People Aero** the Ko.mI, Heartened by Katherine's cheeri* ncHs, 1 walked with her to the kitch* en, finding Katie with her fare close to the kitchen window which com manded a view of the road. She turned ns we entered, and I saw that she was puzzled about something. "Something's foony about dose peoples cross road," she said, as she saw us. "How is that, Katie?” I asked with interest quickened by her comment. "Dey have no vashing out on line,” she replied", and Katherine raised her eyebrows at me in mute questioning as to the meaning of the apparent absurdity. I knew that Katie needed no prodding to keep on talking, and contented myself with the tirst inane query which came into my head. "Is this their washday?” I asked. "No," she answered emphatically. "Dot shoost vot trouble. Dey nefer vash dis day, und dey nefer borrow notings before. But dis morning womans coom ofer, ask me for vun vash tub, say she got beeg vash, too much for her tubs. I know you alvays say, ‘Katie, alvays be kind und lovings by neightbors,’ so I lend dot turn und dey no vash out all dees lime. I no understand." Katie Is Puzzled. I heard a little choking sound from Katherine, smothered by a cough, and knew that she was as amused by Katie's interpretation of my instructions to her, as I was. But I also knew that we must not betray our amusement to the sensi tive girl, so I made a quick banal comment. #"It looks like rain, so perhaps she won't put out the clothes until tomorrow. Don’t worry about it. If she spoils the tub, I'll buy you another.” ' I no vorry about tub," Katie an swered a bit sullenly. "Kef dey spoil dot tub I take eet out of dere hide. But I no like tings I no un derstand. Dey oop to sometings, dose peoples. Maybe,l dey keel some body, und cut heem oop, und—" "Katie:” I cut short the gory de tails of her imagined five-reeler. I forgot to tell you. Mother Graham wants you upstairs right away with Mrs. Ticer and Mamie. She wants to get a great deal accomplished this afternoon with the three of you cleaning.” The ruse succeeded brilliantly. Katie faced me belligerently, amis akimbo, the oddities of the family across the road forgotten. "How she tink I goin’ get dinner eef I stay oop dere und clean all afternoon?” she demanded. "Mrs. Bickett and I are going to get the dinner," I answered placat ingly, and wash the nisnes arter ward, so you can go upstairs imme diately. I'm sure I know- where everything is, and I see the chickens are all nicely cleaned and ready for cooking." "I'll Help You." "Yah, dot .Teem he do goot job," Katie's indifferent drawl was irre sistibly laugh provoking. "Und ail Oder vegetables in cold water ready to cook. You shoost put dot achick en ofer now, und den you got nod ings to do until you vant. put vege tables on, except feex salad. Derc apple pie in pantry. Ket von't be hard for you. But dot old vomans has crust, making you get dinner ven you only home dees leetle—Oh! I forgot vunice more. I no call her old vomans.” "See that ou don't forget again,” I said, but I did not make my voice severe—things were already too tense in the household for any fur ther complications. "And don't wor ry about me. I like to cook, you know.” "You no like eet so veil eef you have to do eet all time," Katie re torted, with cheerful impudence, and then she bustled out of the kitchen, while Katherine and I, when she was safely out of hearing, relieved our iense nerves with a hearty laugh. "Katie ought to incorporate her self as a cure for the glooms," Kath erine said at last, wiping her eyes, and then she walked to the window .where Katie had stood.

If you can't see whether clothes are clean or not, the chances are they won't be. That'a time wasted. Three simple things will light your laundry right: 1. Have thfr lamp hung as high as possible directly above the tubs or trays. 2. Use a 100-watt bowl-enameled Mazda C lamp (bulb), or a 150-watt Mazda Daylight lamp, which shows fabric colors in their actual day light value. 3. Use an RLM metal reflector to spread the light evenly throughout the room. You can do these things for a reasonable cost, and save that cost in time the first few washdays. Call your electrical contractor today — he'll give you a (air estimate, and he’ll do the work swiftly and neatly. Let the right light make your house a home.
