Improve V our Kitchen What have you done in the last five years to improve your kitchen? The question was put to a number of wo¬ men in this city who are known to take an intelligent interest in pro- 1 b , ems ()f home managt , men t. Nearly ha]f q{ thrfse j nterrogatcd looked overt thdr kitcheng thoughtfully and found themseelveg unable t0 , K)int out any ; important progress. i Of thc remainder, a surprisingly larK( , porcentaet , talUed with enthu¬ siasm about kitchen cabinets. If local experience can be taken as a criterion, the cabinet idea is helping materially 1 to lift things out of the old rut and rescue home workers from a great deal of needless drudgery. This is re¬ ' fleeted in the remarkable increase j noted by merchants in the volume of sales. Clear thinking women who have sought to analyze the kitchen cabinet and its logical place in the domestic scheme offer some interesting and Perhaps unexpected conclusions, They find that the cabinet, in addi tion to its facilities for storage, its v 'treous work surface and other con veniences, has a far reaching effect, ” n the whole chain of °P erations en tenn * ,nt ° the preparatipn of food. t Because the cabinet is a natural work centor - use of it almost invar results in smoother operation and orderly arrangement throughout K 1 .. k K j. ‘tcnen. r u„ , Then by its very nature the cabinet insures a high degree of cleanliness and sanitation accompanied by an act¬ ual saving of food ingredients. The net result is better food at lower cost. Though its beauty of design and finish it encourages harmonious and colorful effects in the arrangement of kitchens. Most important of all, its remark¬ able step-saving convenience gives a much greater margin of time which fortunate owners may devote to a broadened circle of interests. In. addi¬ tion to its many practical advantages, the kitchen cabinet is bringing more j sunshine into the lives of women, a fact which is fully appreciated only through actual use.
