“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.

RIGHT
LIGHT
Series
Your Laundry
WHETHER you've a washing and ironing
machine or not, the right light in your laun
dry cuts down the time you spend there. 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.
