Community Kitchens. ,. There has been of late years a great change in the living conditions or habits or customs, whichever you may say, of the business and pro fessional woman. She is rebelling at the boarding house, haunted by her predecessor, and is mora often found establishing singly or with a friend or two of her own choosing, a home to return to after the day s work. And, instead of going out to meals, she prefers to have some, at icasi, in inai name, oreaKiast, oi course, 1s for the average woman an easily prepared meaL With all the labor-saving devices of the day, she can start preparations when she arises and find the morning meal practically ready- for her when she is ready for it. Luncheon is usually a more or less casual meal, taken-, as a rule, where and when most eonve nient; but, .hen it comes to dinner at night, she does enjoy having that in her own home, at her own fire side, whether figuratively or in re ality, and she enjoys having an oc casional friend come there to enjoy it with her. Yet, after a busy day, she has usually neither time nor in clination to prepare the sort of meal she wants. " For her the community kitchen is, indeed, a blessing. Want a Fur Collar On Your Overcoat?
