From My Window
By Shirley Keller
With spring in the air, the
female eye will be turned to
the fashion houses in the dis-
trict. A new Easter ensemble
may set dad back a few dollars
so if the girls are in need of
an original argument to justify
the expenditure, I have just
the thing.
Did you know that statistics
show if a husband was required
to pay his wife the going wage
for the services she performs,
it would cost him about $8,285.-
68 annually?
These figures were drawn up
by experts in the USA and per-
4
haps are a little high for our
particular area. Let's be rea-
sonable about this.
The average housewife goes
on duty at 7 a.m. in the morn-
ing. By the time the dishes
are done in the evening and
the children are safely tucked
into bed, it is 8 p.m.
That is 13 hours a day. We'll
deduct three hours for break-
fast, lunch and dinner plus an-
other half hour for coffee
breaks. We are back to 91/2
hours a day.
For the sake of easy figuring,
let's knock off an additional

HOW TO BE A "PIG" WHEN
IT COMES TO PROFIT
Feed your pigs your own home-grown grains fresh -
mixed with profit -proven National Hog Concen-
trate! It's rich in meat meal protein, so that it
forms a perfect nutritional balance with the vege-
table protein you supply. Whether you have your
own grains or, we supply them, we can custom
blend the finest fresh -mix you can buy—right here
at the mill—using National Concentrate, of course.
(P S. Ask about National's profit -prover, Pig
Starter, too !)

ma.
half hour for talking on the
telephone and chatting over the
back fence. Now there remain
nine hours in the normal work
day.
We will allow husbands the
benefit of the doubt. We will
agree to a five -clay week. We
know that isn't so, but we do
want to be fair. Labor on Sat-
urday and Sunday will be free
of charge to offset the occa-
sional shopping spree, time at
the hairdressers and an after-
noon at the beach.
Nine hours a day for five
days represent 45 hours. I
think that is being generous.
And at the minimum wage of
$1 per hour, the kill comes to
$45 a week.
Wait a minute. What about
room and board says same ador-
ing husband. Okay. Subtract
$20 a week, giving the little
woman a take home pay of $25
a week.
Time 50 (two weeks holidays
she never gets will be deducted
without pay) makes it $1250
annually.
To make hubby feel even bet-
ter, we point out that only $250
of that suin is taxable since he
can claim $1000 expenses for
his wife on his income tax.
From that $1250 owing to the
wife, we can deduct $85 for
care of the hair, $50 for cosme-
tics, $25 for club due, $100 for
gas, $100 for nylons and un-
mentionable plus $100 for medi-
cal and dental bills. Throw in
$40 for miscellaneous items.
This leaves her exactly $750
to spend on clothes or as she
please.
Therefore ladies, you need
not fear the encounter with
hubby when you show him your
new $10 Easter bonnet. You
have mathematical proof that
he owes you much more.
If he protests too much throw
off the taxable $250. You still
have $490 -to spend. Happy
shopping.

For Huron Areas
(Continued from Page 3)
are various topics to choose
from such as "Never a Dull
Meal", "Cooking With Your Hat
On" and "Freezer Forum".
The advisory committee for
the Brussel's Food Forum chose
the topic "Trix With a Mix",
which is designed to show how
a basic home-made biscuit mix
may be used to make a variety
of products from tea biscuits to
pizza to coffee cakes! At the
end of the evening the audience
is invited to taste the food
which has been prepared.
A food forum is an event that
is both informative and inter-
esting. New ideas are present-
ed which can assist the home-
maker in her daily meal prepar-
ation, and which can make eat-
ing more fun for the entire
family.

ply more hot water than the average family is ever likely to use.
Cascade 40 is flameless, safe and clean. It requires no flue so
It can be installed anywhere. The ten year guarantee on the tank
