told ms. "If housework Is to be
transformed from drudgery to de
light, the revolution must start In
the kitchen. •
•The Ideal kitchen is small, but
not crowded. Thtf walls should be
covered with wsehsble material such

maintains.
•The sink, with its two largs drain
boards, should bs placed next to th‘

advises. ‘The dirty dishes should be
