These predictions are based on a corollary forecast that all Canadians will be receiving I equivalently higher incomes. The increasing number of wives who, work away from home has influenced Canadian living patterns in many ways. For instance, the tremendous growth 'of the food service industry is due in part to working wives. Not only do they patronize res- taurants, tea rooms and hot dog stands during lunch hour, but their influence is responsible for more family eating out at the end of a busy day. New decor in restaurants is in large part plan- ned to please the ladies, creating an ita.tmosphere" for dining, making it a pleasant esthetic ex-. perience.
