Equipment is arranged to cut out unneces- sary steps. There is a place for everything ---and so far, nearly everything is in its place. Even dishwashing is " no longer a despised chore. It is pleasant now. For over the sink is a window, through which the dishwasher can see sparkling water, beyond a tree -shaded stretch of grass. Morning, noon and night, the sight of that ever-changing water brings joy to the heart. Yes, it is a smart, modern kitchen. But in it one thing is lacking. There is no room for the old kitchen couch. And that old couch is going to be missed, plenty] Time was when every kitcheaf had a couch. It was a part of the regular furnishings. Usually it arrived there when a new one was bought for the parlor. It was slightly bumpy as to springs, and more than slightly shabby as to cover. But it offered the homemaker a chance to relax for a few minutes while waiting for the meal to cook. On it a sick child could snuggle down and blankets while staying close to Mother. And there even the man of the house was glaii to stretch out after supper while gathering up enough strength to push the lawn mower arognd the front yard. The old kitchen couch has vanished from the scene. It has been crowded out by gadgets. Avery bit of space in the kitchen is taken up with work savg s. There are ne facilities whatever for relaxing between jobs. That may be one reason why women's voices grow shrill; why' their nerves are `touchy," and tempers frayed. The kitchen keeps them keyed up to top working speed and gives them no chance to ease the tension momentarily. Maybe we need more Women architects to design the home of the future. Only then are we likely to have the kind of kitchen which will provide, not only a workshop, -but a room for living—a room where comfort, as symbolized by the old couch, is at least on an even footing with efficiency.
