His wit has made us laugh and his earn- estness to ponder; his fellowship has made our college life happy, and will en- dure through after years binding us to the ideal he has set before us. 8 d c I e i s s J g 2 Our Mother and Our Queen Oh time of happiness and youth, Of joyful consecration. Of holy zeal for faith and truth, And love-born inspiration. When earth is clad in vernal hue, The skies in golden sheen — We raise our hymn of joy to you. Our Mother and our Queen. You lead from life ' s uncertain dawn To glorious day your daughters ; In golden pictures you have drav ni The floods of living waters. And round thy banner, blue and l)lue, A faithful host is seen, True to their honor, true to you, Our Mother and our Queen. Though rose-clad hope may open wide The future ' s golden portal ; And love shall crown — a happy bride — Our brows with wreaths immortal ; Though all our dreams were coming true Yet naught our hearts can wean, Nor turn our grateful thoughts from you, Our Mother and our Queen. To grief and joy — as years go past — Points fate ' s unerring finger ; But changeless shall, while life will last, Your blessings with us linger. Unfaltering love, like morning dew. Shall keep your mem ' ry green — Our lodestar bright, we gaze on you — Our Mother and our Queen. 10 yAe d c I e i s s i g The Edelweiss Staff MILDRED MORSE Editor-in-Chief ROSEBUD CRUMP Assistant Editor GRAHAM McCALL Business Manager EDNA DEATON EDMONDS Assistant Business Manager IDA BERTHA BAUERSFELD Art Editor KATHRYN SHUFORD Humor Editor MARGARET MORGAN Social Editor a a a m .A , a A A A A A ■ A A A A A I A A A A A A A A kU 11 Order of Books Book L The College Book IL The Classes Book IIL Organizations Book IV.

One was at Edenton ; the other at New Bern. However, there were within the province other classical schools having a more or less extended curriculum. Of these Queens College or Museum was the best. Thi , school was established at an early date and flourished about 17C6 under the Rev. Joseph Alexander, who was connected with Sugar Creek Church. On January 15, 1771, the Colonial Legislature granted Queens College a charter and empowered it to confer the degree of B.A. and M.A. upon its graduates. The notorious Edmund Fanning is named first in the list of trustees, and was the first president of the institution. Many of his interests were in the North ; so on June 21, 1771, he left North Carolina and went to New York with Governor Tryon. What time he had resided in North Carolina he had lived in Orange County ; consequently he could have had but little to do with the operation of the school, though the charter rec[uired that all the diplomas be signed by the president who had to be of the Established Church and who had to be licensed by the Governor after his appointment by the Fellows and Trustees of the college. The next session of the Legislature, in December, 1771, amended the charter so that degrees could be conferred in the absence of the president, who is now out of the Province. A section of this charter stated that a duty of six pence per gallon should be put on all rum or liquors brought into and dispensed in Mecklenburg County, which duties were to be collected and paid to the treasurer of the college. The amended charter was approved by the Royal Governor and the Crown Attorney, and was forwarded in March, 1771, to the King for his action. In April, one year later, 1771, the act was disallowed by the King. The furor raised by this disallowance led directly to the demand for the Education Clause in the Constitution of the United States. In April, 1777, the first Legislature of the State of North Carolina incor- porated the institution under the name of Liberty Hall, but referred in the act to its former existence and usefulness. Its operation had been disturbed just previous to this date by the Revolutionary War, during the year of which 13 the building, standing where M ecklenburg court house now stands, was used as a hospital by the American and British armies. The Presbyterians had transferred the college to Winnsboro, South Carolina, and brought it back to Charlotte again, before the Rev. Robert Burwell and Margaret Anna Burwell came in 1857 from Hillsboro, North Carolina, and took charge of the college and called it The Charlotte Female Institute. After the Civil War the school was under the management of the Rev. Robert Burwell and his son. Captain John B. Burwell. For some thirty years after this time, under the presidency of Dr. Atkin- son mainly, the Institute continued its existence in a building on what is known as College Street. In 1901 this building was replaced by a larger one whose cornerstone bore the title Presbyterian College for Women. At this time the school went under ecclesiastical control and for eleven years or more following Dr. J. R. Bridges was the beloved president of this college. With him was associated in administration Miss Lily W. Long, often referred to now as the perfect Dean. In 1912, after Dr. J. L. Caldwell was chosen by the Board of Trustees to be president of the college, the Board of Trustees determined that it was necessary for the location to be changed to Myers Park, if the college was to expand. Further, it was decided to give the Myers Park college the name it first bore : Queens College. The spirit of the new Queens College and the associate organization is not nobler than that of the past. The aim of the modern progressive Queens College is much the same as that of the first Queens College ; it is aptly expressed in the words which the present institution has made her own : Christian Women for Christian Homes. 14 Oh u H O O ai H ;=) •z o w H 19 A.

Each of us will take a different path, Each with a definite aim ; Will step faithfully and hopefully, For all that is best to claim. We have ever had the spirit. To get that for which we strive ; And we of the Class of ' 22, Will always keep that spirit alive. The creed that guides our lives, Is to be ready, steady and true ; Then with the heart of a true blue Queen, We are willing our part to do. We are, in leaving here today. Entrusting to you our Blue and Blue ; We are leaving our joys and friends. And the spirit and love of ' 22. 48 Senior Class History QINETEEN TWENTY-TWO— The four years of college life are gone, the play is over. But while we still linger on the campus of Queens it seems fitting that we should record the history of this class. We deem it good to leave this record, that in future years these happenings may live more vividly in our memories. Positively this is to be no short history of the Senior Class. Refer to any authority on history (Lucia Beason or Elizabeth Abernathy), and they will agree with the author that A Short History of the United States will cover 850 pages, according to Mr. Bassett. It is generally understood that a History of the United States would cover a few wars and the administration of a few more less important Presidents. But think what a task is set be- fore one who would chronicle the Class of 1922 ! No, we do not expect to write a short history of such a class, for we have neither the time nor the inclination. Perhaps we should start out by saying that on a certain day in Septem- ber we arrived at the portals of our Alma Mater to be, looking as green as faithful daughters of the Emerald Isle upon St. Patrick ' s ' Day. It is true, however, that a Freshman is not a Senior. The author well remembers one afternoon in early September, when with suitcase in hand and a strange sink- ing feeling in heart, she took the Myers Park car at the Southern Station; she also remembers the long ride that gave her the sensation of passing over sea waves, until at last the spacious grounds of Queens College appeared in sight. Yes, we were all Freshmen once upon a time, although to see Mary Lynn Currie, Myrtle Williamson and Virginia Wilkins walking around clothed in all their Senior dignity, one would almost doubt the statement on good authority. Of course we were all Freshmen but that did not keep the Class of ' 22 from showing their ability in their first year. We came very near winning the championship in tennis, for our team played the Juniors in the Finals and lost only by a deuced third set. In basketball, all agreed in pronouncing us a most enthusiastic peppery class. Our only drawback was our majority of members being Specials or Irregulars. The two college soci- eties into which most of us were initiated on a certain Saturday night, we shall never forget — those of us who are still alive to tell the tale. It is usually the custom for Freshmen, after staying at the college for a year, to become Sophomores. We were no exception to the rule. That operation was in due time performed, though a number were not able to 49 stand it, and that accounted for the decrease in our numbers ; for it was seen after the Summer vacation that some had perished in the whirlpools and cross currents of the sea of knowledge. This year we covered ourselves with glory, by winning all the honors of Field Day. Indeed, we were so wise by now that even Solomon himself would have been compelled to acknowledge the fact. With the beginning of our Junior year began our marked increase of congeniality and class spirit which we have retained until the end of this school career. This was the year that leaders began to come into prominence and we began to show our fellow classmates that we were made of sterner stufif. That year we established with the help of Miss Chubbuck, The Queens Blues, our college paper, that speaks for itself. It was declared at our Junior-Senior banquet at the Charlotte Woman ' s Club that more food was consumed and more enjoyment received than on any occasion since Belshazzer feasted his court upon the wines and viands of the East. What must be said of our Senior Year? A Senior is a thing of wonder and a joy forever. As most Seniors always do, we came back to school feeling very important especially as Student Government first went into efifect that year under the capable leadership of the President of our class, Rena Blanton, as the first Student Government President. This last year which completes the cycle of our college life has gone by most rapidly. We can hardly realize that in a few more days we will no longer live in royalty with Kings and Queens. However, we are planning a time of jollification at Camp Latta for one week after we have said good-bye to Q. C. We now stand upon the threshold of a life of greater responsibilities and opportunities. As we go out into this fuller life may we carry with us the spirit of Queens, in which we shall still Ijc united. ELIZABETH FINLEY, Historian. 50 The Prophecy of the Class of 1922 WAS stationed at Tsing Kiang Pu, China, directing a company of moving picture stars. We were shooting a big super-production, a Chinese romance. The heroine of the picture was the world ' s favorite Margaret Anderson. I had been Margaret ' s directress for three years now and this was to be our biggest achievement and establish our name the world over. The climate was very hot and disagreeable and caused us to do most of our work at night, leaving the days free. One morning Margaret and I went in quest of what she called atmosphere. This was her name for observing and imitating the natives whom we saw on our walks. One morning as we were walking through a crowded street in the shop district we met Edna Deaton, or better known as Mrs. Jimmie Edmunds. We were so surprised we stood and stared. She and her husband were stationed there as missionaries under the Southern Presbyterian Mission and doing a very great and effective work. Edna invited Margaret and me to go with them on a visit to a friend the next day. She refused to give the friend ' s name, but we consented to go and prepared for our journey which was to be made in the native Jin-riki-sha. Early the next morning we started on our journey of twenty-three miles to an adjoining village. We arrived tired, hot and dusty to be greeted by none other than our own dear Myrtle Williamson who was engaged in a mission similar to that of Edna ' s. We had so much to talk about we could hardly wait but as usual Myrtle refused to let pleasure conflict with duty so she compelled us to accompany her up the mountain side to tend an old hermit, a practicer of Chinese magic. Edna and Myrtle were very dubious and scoft ' ed at his ideas but for some reason he fascinated Margaret and me. We began to investigate his home and in one corner of the room we found a bunch of pine cones, strangely carved and painted various hues. When questioned the old man told us that if we burnt one of them it would bring a picture of anyone we wished to see. Suddenly Edna said, Oh, let ' s burn them and see what the other members of the class of 1922 are doing! We bought the cones from the old man and gathered round the fire. The hermit began to chant in a 51 weird undertone to himself. Who shall we see first? asked Myrtle. Why, Rena of course, replied Margaret. 1 picked out the largest cone of all, a dark, rich red one and dropped it carefully in the heart of the flames. We all leaned forward and held our breath, slowly the smoke rose and hesitated and in the midst we saw a prison cell. In a chair behind the bars sat Rena Blanton talking to several agitated women. It was plain to see why she was there for scattered about the floor were radical placards and she wore a blazing regalia proclaiming her a leader of the women about her. We knew Rena would always lead her way but did not expect her to land in jail for it. As the picture faded I dropped in another cone and the vision changed to one of a chapel full of girls. The room looked very much like the one we had known at Queens. On the stage very stern yet sweetly efTicient sat Mary Lynn Currie, as Dean of one of the best known girls schools in Amer- ica. She had certainly not missed her calling. The third cone turned the flames to a lovely lavender shade, shot with tints of rose, in the midst of these we saw a rich young widow traveling with an elderly companion, two maids and nine trunks. This was Lucia Beason, who had married a year after finishing school and lost her wealthy husband some six months later. ,. In went another cone and the picture faded to one of beauty, soft tones, color, ease and comfort blended in the perfect harmony of a big New York home. Presiding over this home was Ida Bertha, now the wife of America ' s most famous interior decorator, who owed much of his success to Ida. As we looked Margaret Morgan came in and signed a contract by which her apartment on upper Riverside Drive was to be done over. Some one in Margaret ' s family had left her a large fortune and she had at last reached the stage where she had nothing to do but spend money and rest in luxury. The next cone carried us to Boston and showed Elizabeth Finley teaching toe dancing in a school for girls aspiring to the stage. She was considered the best authority of the time on gesticulation and presentation by means of the dance. 52 S d c I luj e t s s The group about the fire was tense and leaned forward with expectation as 1 placed the next cone on the coals. This one was a long time blazing — it hesitated — then the smoke curled slowly upward and curled into a white, still, hospital room. We could almost smell the chloroform as we watched. Over a bed lingered a very small but capable looking graduate nurse, who, when she turned, we discovered to be Vera Strayhorn. Near her stood another, who wore the uniform of a dietician — this person was Virginia Wilkins. Vir- ginia and Vera were very successful in their management of a big hospital. Suddenly the figure on the bed moved, turned over and smiled. The smile did the work, for by it we recognized Rosebud. We wondered what on earth she was doing here when Vera with a proud smile picked up a New York Times and across the top in blazing headlines we read Rosebud Crump, (ilrl Aviatress, Risks Life in Effort to Save Lives from a Sinking Ship! We sighed with relief as this picture faded into an office full of men ex- cept for one woman, Graham McCall. Graham sat behind a big desk looking very important and wise. On the door in big gold letters was Matrimonial Agency, conducted privately by Graham McCall, expert in handling all love aft ' airs. As we watched in rushed Wilhelmina DeLaney. She grabbed one of Graham ' s application sheets and filled it out as follows : Name : Wilhelmina DeLaney; Occupation: Stenographer to John Burton; In Love?: Yes; With whom?: Employer; Does he love you?: Slightly. Questions: How can I make him mine ? ! ! That was enough for us. The next cone instead of looking warm made me shiver for wdiat I saw was Mildred Morse and her completely vamped husband, the great explorer, Stefansson, They were spending their honeymoon at the North Pole and living on bouillon cubes. The cone following took us into a cozy little home and we saw Elizabeth Abernathy there — well she was still champion chess player! Having little curiosity to satisfy (you see we knew this anyway) I dropped in another cone. This apparition was a softly lighted salarium crowded with people, the central figure being Louise Wilkie. She was placing a record on a big 53 A e d c w e i s s i g Cabinet Victrola and as we read tlie title we saw it was her own rendering of a Mozart masterpiece. From tlie music we were called into a new picture, a tea room, a poem of restfulness, quiet and delight. The room was crowded with patrons all of whom, it was easily to be seen, were the select of San Francisco ' s society. Acting as hostess of this quaint place and mingling with her guests was Mary Robison, as clever and attractive as could be. I then noticed that there was only one cone left. I dropped it slowly in the flames. I then saw Thelma Corbett. Immediately my mind was full of Sociology, Psychology, Education and such, and sure enough our T was the head of an institution for feeble minded people. She had accomplished astounding results in this line of study and had even been able to convince sane people that crazy ones were sensible. Slowly the fire died out. The ashes stirred restlessly, the old hermit ceased his murmuring and we sighed as we turned away our minds and hearts full of memories of Queens and 1922.

HE Junior Class at Qi:eens has shown A spirit that can stand the test Of many trials that are known To keep a Junior from the best. They aren ' t content with work half-done, But at the ics and ologies They work, until they feel they ' ve won A right to coveted degrees. And as the Staff of our Queens Blues They make it better every way, Until the world could not but choose To see us growing every day. Athletics also have their place In every Junior ' s busy life : Tennis and gym without disgrace. And basketball with breathless strife. But always for their college, dear. The Juniors work with this in view : May Queens be better since we ' re here And always to the best be true.

The College part sounded grand, but we were doubtful about the Freshman part. Just the year before we had been Seniors at the High School, and it seemed a terrible tumble to Freshman again. For the first week we felt that we deserved our name. Then things changed color and we acquired a little seasoning. The old girls entertained the new girls with a delightful party which started the ball rolling for lots of good times. The Class of ' 25 began to show splendid ability along athletic lines. We point with pride to the fact that we were champions of the whole college in basketball, while all our team made the Varsity. Where is the Freshman class that can show such a record as this ? Although we had become very enthusiastic about college, nobody was any gladder than the little Freshman when the Christmas holidays rolled around. The only thing we could see when we came back was the mid-term examinations. They filled our vision by day and haunted our dreams by night. Our first College Exams ! Oh, the horrors and agonies we suffered before the ordeal was over. However, we took one deep breath, dived in, and came up smiling ! We acted upon a hint dropped by our English teacher, and purchased a newspaper rack which we presented to the college for the library. And now we are nearing the end of our l- reshman journey. We have climbed many hills and safely crossed some rivers. Weary from study, we are looking forward to vacation time in which to rest and play. Thus refreshed we shall be ready to enter upon our Sophomore journey. 77 78 Specials LACKEY, LOUISE GILLIARD, LUCY LAIRD, ELIZABETH GILLIARD, CORNELIA LONG, MABLE GALLOWAY, MARY MANSON, SUSIE GIBBON, ALICE MACKEY, MARGARET GILBERT, MARGARET LOUISE McARTHUR, SARAH GLUCK, BLANCHE McCULLY, MARGARET GOOD, FANNIE McINTOSH, LUCILE GRAHAM, PAULINE McMURRAY, ELIZABETH HOYLE, MARY MEDLOCK, MARION HALL, NELL MOBLEY, MARY HART, NELL MONROE, NANCY HARDIE, GERTRUDE MORETZ, EDWINA HENDERSON.

WILLIAMS, MARY 82 Special Class History ON September 8th there arrived in Charlotte the most brilliant and the largest Special Class Queens College has ever known. The places of some of the old girls who failed to come back were adequately filled by the best of the new girls. Soon after gettting settled for our work at Queens the Specials organized, electing the following class officers : MARY BUIE President EVELYN IVIE Vice-President NANCY MONROE Secretary and Treasurer MABLE LONG Reporter to Queens Blues BEULAH HOLMES Student Council Representative A-Iiss West was chosen and accepted to be our Class Sponsor. Our president, Mary Buie, failed to come back after the Christmas holi- days, and in her place we elected Eunice Switzer, who has led us through a very successful year. The Special Class has been unusually enthusiastic in athletic activities, as well as in literary lines. Special interest was taken in basketball. The insig- nificant Specials (as some people call us; but not the wise ones) were very proud of beating the dignified Seniors 20- L , January 26th. In all the various activities of college life the Special Class has held its own. Now as this college year draws to a close, we hope to return next year. ' BOOKJ ' kree Student Government ' TUDENT GOVERNMENT, as it exists at Queens, is an outgrowth I of a current of feeling and opinion which for many years has made itself felt in the student body. The evolution of such student public opinion culminated in the honor system which was begun in the fall of 1921. This system rests upon the assumption that each girl is a student of honor and that character can be developed best by dwelling together in mutual friendship and trust. All girls matriculating at Queens College must adopt the honor system and each girl is trusted to observe all the regulations of Student Government and to report herself to the Student Council if she violates any of them. This system is no longer a theory but a condition which has stimulated pride of character, a higher sense of honor both to one ' s self and to others, has created moral principles and has served as a check to the indiscretion of the unthinking. 4p A e d c i c i s s i g 87 The Young Woman ' s Christian Association XN every organization there are certain features which attract and fill the need of certain people, and there is a place for every girl to be found in the Young Woman ' s Christian Association of Queens Col- lege. It is an organization in which every girl is wanted and actually needed, an organization which every girl needs to complete her college life. Although the object of this Association is, like the majority of worth-while things, simple in its statement, it is profound in its meaning. It strives to make con- sistent Christian living the aim of every Queens Girl, and desires for every girl with this aim the ideals of honesty, earnestness, joyousness, love and service ; in other words the object of this Association is that in all things may have the preeminence. 19 2.2.

Montreal ONE of the best things about Queens Y. W. C. A. is its part in the summer Y. W. C. A. Conference ; and in one of the prettiest parts of the State is the place where every Queens girl Down in the valley, surround- ed by the Blue Ridge Moun- tains, is found Montreat, where every year the Y. W. C. A. con- ference for smaller colleges is held. During the ten days of this conference, opportunities for re- ligious work and training are of- fered in such abundance that no girl ' s college course is complete without at least one summer ' s course. It is a place for social uplift as well as for spiritual growth, and recreation of the highest and most wholesome type fills the days. The Y. W. C. A. at Queens sends a delegation each year, the mem- bers of which are chosen for their well-rounded personalities and for their ability to bring back to Queens the inspiration gained at Montreat. 91 Student Volunteer Band RUTH ANTHONY ■ NELL HART MARY ANDERSON MARGARET SMART ESTELLE ARDREY MYRTLE WILLIAMSON EDNA DEATON EDMONDS CORNELIA WEARN For Dear Old Pi EOR dear old Phi we lift on high Our glasses sparkling clear; Of her we boast, To her we toast Our society so dear.

May Day-1921 ' ' HE May Fete program was successfully conducted the afternoon of ■ J May 2d. Miss Margaret Anderson, the May Queen, was especially attractive in queenly robes of white and gold. The Maids of Honor were the Misses Ida Bertha Bauersfeld, Marion Elliot, Frances Pitts, Cor- delia Henderson, Dorothy Powell, Henry Belk, Margaret Mackey, and Rose- bud Crump. Miss Adele Cross crowned the Queen, and about twenty small pages served as train-bearers and flower girls. May Day dawned bright and clear, and at five o ' clock the line of gaily- dressed girls marched out on the campus, forming a quarter-circle on each side of the throne. The Maids of Honor, in their old-fashioned costumes and with powdered hair, made a striking picture. With the flower-decked throne and the setting sun as a back-ground. Queen Margaret was crowned. After she had taken her seat on the throne, the Maids danced a quaint and graceful Minuet, followed by a number of folk-dances, all well executed; the May Pole dance concluded the exercises. The costumes were very noticeable, especially those of the Scotch Reel and the Ladanum Bunches. Pictures were made of the entire pageant and a close-up of the beautiful Queen, surrounded by her little pages, was taken. Throngs of people packed the campus and cars lined the streets. The marching and dancing, held the interest of the crowd, and everyone present voted All Hail to Queen Margaret and her Maids. 145 e d c I luj e I s s 192 SEPTEMBER- 7lh- 8th- 9th- 10th- 28th- Social Calendar September 8, 1921-May 18, 1922 -Dormitories opened for students -Formal opening. -First term begins -Old girls entertain new girls -College Movie : Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse 30th — Alumnae Reception to Faculty OCTOBER- 2d — Y.

From the expression on her face (see cartoon) you ' d think she had won this game. MARGARET ANDERSON Andy Our adored Andy, She is a dandy. Comes in so handy To make us candy. Of a certainty our Fannie-at ' cal Margaret tried to be a Sam-son and carry off the very gates to all our honors. However, to the victor be the spoils, and as a Q ueen, Margaret is the fair, the chaste, the inexpres- sive she. For further credentials and a copy of the original see Queens sta- tistics pages. THE SIAME5: TWINS LOOSH REASON Queens Abridged gives the fol- lowing definitions : Lucia — A nice girl (we think so) ; a sweet girl (always) ; a good natured girl (most always). Beason — A good-looker (mirable visu) ; one having lots of clothes (we know); one capable but timid (some- times) ; and one being slightly ad- dicted to having a fondness for the opposite sex (occasionally). RENA BLANTON Who ' s who? I ' ll tell you a thing or two. For you surely should know Who ' s the first in our show. The girls all declare That she ' s had her share Of worry and fame, Yet she ' s always the same. Blant needs a ton of praise For her work in her Senior days. (Blunt ending unavoidable. This Gus Travis Couplet style is hard to stop ). THE HEAD 153 T CORBETT CURRIE Her grades are most justly her due, For the girls who study are few. When others are sad She ' s always so glad That all of her lessons she knew. Yet Corbett ' s not always as she seems For oft at her studies she dreams. She ' s madly in love And heavens above — She writes him letters by reams.

As to her color — it ' s red and white. She ' s a Rosebud; she ' s all right. Every Rosebud has a thorn — Maybe a few our Bud adorn. But still we love her, I ' ll say we do. Be those many or few. Heard in English V.: I couldn ' t write a poem to save my neck, And I ain ' t a ' goin ' to try any more — By Heck. Scandalized voice from the rear — Edna! That ' s a BAD word! Mercy on us !

With those qualifications you ought to be able to hold down the job of science teacher at Queens). 157 IDA BAUERSFELD Ida ' s the guy who spends her time on the Seniors now and then.

Ask for the girl, who — the last I heard — was taking B.M. in Piano, voice, domestic science, domestic art, china painting, and expression, and I ' m sure you ' ll find her because I don ' t know of any one else who ' s doing that. Oh you ' re welcome — goodbye. 158 SHUFIE SHUFORD Nothing can be said of her honey, She says ' twill not always be funny, So what are we going to do?

Christian Women for Christian Homes FOR CATALOGUE, WRITE TO REV. W. H. FRAZER, D. D.

As miraculous, however, as has been the accomplishment of electricity in industry it has done no less fcr the home. Electrical appliances have driven drudgery forever from the home. The modern electrically equipped home is vastly different from the most thoroughly up-to-dafe home of even a few years ago. It is brighter, cleaner and happier. The housekeeper ' s lot is cast in pleasanter places. There is an electrical appliance for practically every household duty and one little housewife, with the aid of these appliances, keeps her home in better order and with less effort than she would be able to do with a retinue of servants if she was compelled to do without the electrical appliances. Aside from the strictly household appliances there are a number of appliances which individuals can use to advantage. Some of these are electric curling irons, elec- tric grills, toasters, water heaters, heating pads and others.
