Hello Homemakers! Electricity will
be playing an increasingly important
role in our homes in the near future.
There will be improved lighting.
Lighting will lie chosen first, because
it is adequate for good vision and, sec-
ondly, because it is decorative. This
is in complete contrast to the days
when the rose shaded lamp with the
fringe cast only a small circle of poor
light, but was considered very elegant.
Electricity helps you work or relax
with ease if the light is adapted to
your work. Bare bulbs, even inside
frosted ones, are glaring and should
not be used if they come within your
field of vision. A 200 watt light is
placed four feet from your tedious
work, whereas a 200 watt central light-
ing fixture is ample for general kitchen
routine.
One reason why homemakers prefer
white or ivory paint for their kitchens
that these colors do not absorb
light, It is especially important to
stress keeping the kitchen lighting
fixtures clean as they become greasy
and dusty quickly. Darkened bulbs
should be discarded—they give poor
light and may burn out at an inoppor-
tune time. When you buy a supply
sof new ones, purchase long-life bulbs
of the correct voltage. The local Hy-
dro man should be consulted about
the kind to buy.
Now that more people are studying
...•••••••••••••••••••••••• •••••-n••••••••
and reading fine print every night, you
really most consider adequate light.
A white lined shade with a straight
slanted side in a table-lamp near your
reading chair with a 200 watt bulb
provides the best source of light, The
best types of floor or table lamps arc
thsose with white glass or white plas-
tic bowls. A reflector bowl should be
used below the bulb if the lamp is
high. The tri-light lamp for instance
has a reflector bowl—and table-read-
ing lamps should have them too.
TAKE A TIP
Lighting and lightening tasks are
two different things. Each should be
planned and revised, Equipment is
man-designed, but woman-used. The
best way to decide whether your kit-
chen is usable is to make a time-and-
motion study of the jobs you do. How
can your kitchen be improved?
1. Work space: Although the sink,
refrigerator and electric range may be
relocated for greater convenience in
the approved plan the sink is the cen-
ter with the range near the dining
room door. There should be work sur-
face on one side of the range and at
the opening of the refrigerator.
If the counter is too wide then there
will be difficulty reaching for over-
head cupboards are accessible places
head cupboards. Shallower cupboards
are accessible places to store things
while additional storage is provided
under the oconters. A cabinet under
the ;Silk provides space. for storing
cleaning equipment and a biding place
for the garbage can. If there are not
vents on this door, you should put a
.screen on it to prevent dishcloths or
mops from going sour, Vegetable bins
should have open grill at the front and .
a small space at the back for ventila-
tion,
Sliding doors may be expensive but
they are worth the money compared
to the head bumps of open doors in a.
small kitchen. An overhead place next
to the refrigerator should be reserved
for food storage, One side for eereals,
crackers, canned goods, syrups, etc;
the other for cooking ingredients and
spices, seasonings, etc, And directly
under this 'section available working
surface which covers the baking tit-;
2, Improvements at the range; It is
interesting to see the new features on
the new electric ranges, These do a
splendid job of baking, broiling, etc.,
and reduce time and strenuous work,
To complete the cookery section a
metal utility shelf is needed at one side
or directly above the range to hold
seasoning and utensils used while
cooking,
