Mom, my homemade
strawberry jam has ttie con-
sistency of glue. Do you sup-
pose it's safe to eat it
anyway?
Mom, • Fred says I can't
even make decent coffee!
What should 1 do.
Mom, Tommy has a fever.
What do you think I should
give him?
Mother always. comes up
with answers, and to
daughter it seems as though
she always had the answers.
But did she? To some
daughters, the answer to that
question is a shock.
The Mother, who is now
famous for flakey pie crust,
used to be tempted to give her
guests chisels instead of
forks. Her muffins would
have made excellent.
baseballs, and 'her cakes
could have been mistaken for
pancakes.
During the first months of
marriage, she feared her hus-
band might be stricken by
food poisoning.
The Mother, whc used to feed
threshing crews that
numbered from '10 to.20 men,
can still "throw together" a
feast for surprise visitors, but
at one time, she panicked at
the thought of feeding one
hired hand.
A daughter, who grew up on
a farm, watched mother fork
hay into mangers, feed calves
from pails and handle milking
machines with skill.
Could it be true that, when
she married Father and mov-
ed from town, she hardly
knew one end of a cow from
the other?
As long as daughter can.
remember, Mother could
plough, plant and scuffle ex-
pertly.' Surely
x-pertly.'Surely Father is only
joking when he says the first
time she got on a tractor she
backed halfway across the
field. -
It seems incomprehensible
that the Mother, who is
.always so calm in times of il-
Iness or injury, panicked the
first time baby sneezed.
Could it be true that once
upon a time mothers were as
uncertain as daughters? If so.
how did they come up.with all
the answers.they now have?
The answer is simple. They
learned from experience - and
a few calls to Mother.
