CLEAN KITCHENS
Dear Headers:
1 wrote last week on washing
vour hands. You may he opposed
to clean hands, lmt there are lots
of persons who are not. It my
last article caused one family to
he more particular about washing
the hands often 1 accomplished
much good, because that family
will - tell others about it. 1 am sure
there wore some who learned this
important lesson on cleanliness
and were benefited, for one sub
scriber writes us it was appreci
ated by him and family and was
worth a great deal, as it caused
them to he more careful and think
more an this line than ever before.
“Clean Kitchen**” is my subject
for this issue, and if you will put
on your thinking cap and just half
observe, survey your own kitchen
closely and make it convenient to
visit a few kitchens among your
neighbors, you will agree with me
most of them are in a filthy condi
tion, need a general renovating
and cleaning up and a continua
tion of it every day in the year.
The dirtiest and filthiest places
1 have visited during my journey
through life. I think sometimes,
have been the kitchens where the
food we eat is cooked and prepar
ed. Some of them are veritable
disease carriers to the stomaehe,
breeding typhoid fever and all oth
er disease germs known to the
medical profession.
Some Things You Will Find.
You will find in the majority of
kitchens, flics by tlie score, just
arrived from filth and garbage re
volting to think about.
You will find decayed and re
fuse Vegetables and slops left in
the kitchen all night and longer,
decayed meats and'an odor when
•you go in, especially in the morn
ing, which ought to cause us to
think if anything will make us

■ New York (Special).—l.tke the
2,000,000 American boys whom It
served so gloriously In the trenches ot
France, the Salvation Army Is coming
hack from overseas, ready to put aside
Its khaki uniform of war service, don
again the “Civvies" and embark once
more on Its normal peace time activi
ties.
And. Just like those doughboys, the
Salvation Army has come out of the
war victorious and with citations for
bravery, decorations for gallantry un
der Are nnd golden chevrons Indica
tive of honorably won wounds on Its
anti. The victory which the Salva
tion Army has won Is a victory over
the obstacles that lay before It In Its
purpose of efficient service of the fight
ers of I’ershlng s army. Its citations
are the thanks, cheers and prayers of
2,000,000 doughboys. Its wound stripes
ara rightfully golden of hue, for they
typify the unselfish way In which the
Army threw all Its resources —finan-
cial, spiritual and moral—lnto the ef
fort to help the American soldiers In
France.
Now tho Army ia suiting tho poopla
of America to giro It concrete evidence
of the gratitude which hae been so
loudly, and so willingly eipresaetl.
From May 19 to 26 the Salvation Army
will conduct In the United States a
campaign to raise $13,000,000 for It*
Home Service Fund. The money Is
needed both to recoup the fortunes of
the Army, shattered hy Its long service
of the soldier and to permit It to carry
on the work It has always done on the
larger scale which the po(Wo now
demands. Ratslug the money by this
means, the Salvation Army eiplatns,
will eliminate, perhaps permanently,
the necessity for the ceaseless solicita
tion of funds which has been a bug
bear to the Army and the public alike.
It will permit the workers of the Army,
wton, forced to deWWe more than half
their time to gathering money, were In
consequence only half efficient in their
evangelistic and social service work,
to devote all their time in future to
the duties for which they have been
trained.
By Betsey Doolittle
think about cleanliness.
You will fund old oil cloths on
many of the tables cracked from
the years of age and filled with
grease and dirt and disease germs.
But the worst of all you will
find dish-rags which have seen
luigliter and cleaner days in the
weeks that have passed and gone,
and which have become so black
and dirty from long use and lack
of soap you will be shocked w hen
you view them and think for a mo
ment on their filth and how very
dangerou ß il is to still use them.
Long enslaved and dirty dish
rags have been the cause of the
death angel visiting thousands of
homes in this inteligcnt. educated
and civilized land we delight to
call the land of the free and the
home of the brave. If you wish
to be brave and free, burn these
filthy dish-rags aiuj thus help
free yourself and loved ones from
such an enec”'
You will find many of the dishes
pan Band cooking vessels go for
hours or a day or more unwashed
by many careless and filthy cooks,
if they can get along without them
and dust and dirt are allowed to
accumulate in numbers of kitch
ens to an alarming extent.
Dirty kitchens! Just pause a
minute, go in and take a causual
look at your own and examine
your neighbors and you will con
clude this picture is not over
drawn and that the half has never
yet been told.
Surely then Cleanliness needs
being taught and talked more. It
is amazing to know how filthy we
are and we don’t realize it. We
are all guilty and the way to stop
it is to get dean. Tell your neigh
bors to read after
Yours for Cleanliness,
BETSY DOOLITTLE.
