THE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: AUGUST 15, 1920. 2 B Society IT assuredly 'never can be said that the feminine members of Omaha- society are parasites, weaklings or even old-fashioned, for they vie With each other in the excel lence of their sportsmanship.

By BEATRICE FAIRFAX During the past week the fol lowing story appeared by Miss Fairfax. Letters have been com ing in expressing different views on the subject Read them over and write Miss Fairfax your views: An Omaha matron who reigns in a beautiful "Home, had a telephone conversation the other morning with a prospective serv ant in her house. Mistress and maid seemed to be coming to gether very nicely on arrange ments," when, the former said: What isypur given name? If you come here tO:WOrk I won't want to call you Mrs. Soand So." "Indeed;" came" the" reply in an offended , nd high- sounding voice, "if you call me by rhy first name I shall expect to call you by yours," Of course that settled the question of employment right there. . " " Dear Miss" Fairfax: It is just as respectable to be, called Mary as "Mrs." Smith, and it depends upon a woman's age and preference which I would call her. If I had a middle aged, refined woman helping me in my home I should consider it fairer to her and no trouble to me to ad dress her as Mrs. whoever she might be. But I would not lay down a rule for this, because many help ers would feel silly to be called Miss or Mrs. , Dear Miss Fairfax: . I saw your little story in The Bee Friday even ing about the servant who expected to be called by her married name. Now it wouldn't make a bit of dif ference to me -what I called her, but I certainly wouldn't be bothered with anyone who carried that spirit around with her. She would con tinually fear I might offend her. Temperamental people don't make satisfactory helpers. - Dear Miss Fairfax: Every business and every establishment of any kind must have a head. In the home the woman is the logical head, so far as management of the household rou tine is concerned. When another woman comes into her home to as sist her she subordinates herself. We can talk about democracy all day and about one woman being just as good as the other, but the simple fact remains that the servpnt is subordinated to the master, or, in this case, the mistress. If it were not for this, there would be no servant problem. Women, especially refined women who have had their own homes,' don't' like to subordinate themselves to another woman, and when they feel that way about it they had better not look for a job in someone's home, even though the pay is good and they want the money. . They 'would never be happy in the work. Let women who expect to take. orders, and who are not supersensitive about names, take such jobs. This sounds cold-blooded, but what is the Ufe of being sentimental and lying about facts? When I hire someone to work for me I want a goo-1., strong worker, not a companion or a woman on whom . I must use di plomacy and tact. I don't mean I woufcln't be good to her, either. I think it is more complimentary to a servant when she understands that ynu are not running a charitable in stitution or a school of etiquette, but rather that you have a simple busi ness arrangement in which she is as much an honored partner as you. The worker likes it herself. She doesn't care for personal attention from you any more than you do from her. As for the matter of first name, it is purely a convenience' to 3ddresS a permanent member of your house hold, who by the very nature . of things has temporarily subordinated herself to you, by het first name The mistress, the logical head of the establishment, of course, should re tain her title. I am not sure Miss Fairfax that I have made myself clear.. My servants are just as good as I am; w my opinion, if they be have themselves as I do, but there can be only one mistress in the home What's What By HELEN DECIE . .Do You Know XVII THREE QUESTIONS A DAY FOR THE HOUSEWIFE. . ' 1. Who grew the first cherries? ' s.-- 2. How to minimise the acid in cooked tomatoes? ; ,: 3. How to clean bamboo furniture? (These questions will be answered this week by the Housewife). ANSWERS TO FRIDAY'S QUESTIONS. 1. The only way to be sure that you or your family will not be poisoned from canned goods ja never to serve any canned fruit, fjph, meat nor vegetables that has' an unaccustomed odor or color. Contents of cans that have swollen or that give forth gas when opened should be destroyed. . This is the only safe way, as only experts can tell harmless decomnosition from noisonous decomposition. , 2. Authorities on child diet agree that sugar shomld be with-. held from the mush, porndge or cereal dish of children, and should be given rather in an occasional 'dessert or even in a small lump of sugar at the end of a meal. i ... 3. To, "clean a raincoat, dip the garment into soft cold water, then with' 4 -small scrubbing brush and yellow soap, proceed to scrub it all over. When the mud stains are quite removed, dip it into sev eral "waters, but do not wring it. Dry in the air, but on no account near a fire. - "J- - ' Each of these household problems has -been worked but by the author, who has not only taken a course in scientific housewifery and dietetics at Columbia university, and written and 'edited women's newspapers and magazine features for years, but is a practical house keeper as well). . ' . and if they are not willing to take that view and the incidental things that go along with it, they had better not do that class of work. Since you have mentioned it, Mis3 Fairfax, I think a servant has a per fect right to ask that she be called as she wishes. I think it can be ar? ranged satisfactorily that way. Serv ants are entirely too scarce nowa days to be dismissed because they will not be called by their first names. True the first name sounds, better and more like our eastern and more formal friends, neverthless I maintain that a servant has a right to be called by her last name if she so desires. A great many servants are reallyy seit-respecting miaaie aged married women, you know; just as many of us are. Country Club ijr. and Mrs! F. B.
