Nearly a hundred million people in the United States awake hungry, and most adults realize that the comfort and profit of the day depend largely upon the quality of the meal they start with. Children don't think much about it, but the quality of their food is none the less important. The clever housewife always meets BAKING the emergency. She provides for break POWDER fast nourishing food that will tempt the appetite. Royal Baking Powder makes possible the earliest, quickest breakfast, with delicious biscuit, waffles, muffins Absolutely Pure and hot-breads. OYA ROYAL KINGPOW Foods made with Royal Baking Powder have been declared by expert physiological chemists more digestible than such breakfast breads made in the old-fashioned way or with alum baking powders. Royal is a pure, cream of tartar baking powder, healthful and economical. The marking indicates technical analysis of household apparatus, foods and toilet accessories only OPEN "The Money Your Husband Earns" In far off Holland one of the most fascinating and interesting sights in all of that quaint country on the Zuyder Zee is to see, on any market morning, the throngs of Dutch housewives as they literally swarm about the booths and carts of the insistent vendors, here sampling a cheese, there fitting a wooden shoe to the sturdy foot of the kiddie by their side, and everywhere bent on driving a shrewd bargain with the always specious huckster. Merchandise of every description which falls within the needs of the modest home is on display and many a Dutch girl gets her first lesson in discriminating purchase at the side of her mother in the market-place. The Holland lass, you see, acquires early those traits of home thrift and management which later, when marriage comes, make possible the wise handling of the far too meager wage of her liege lord and master. Is not the same kind and species of impulse behind the humble shopper across the sea also directing you the wives in the towns and cities of the new world? Is it not this same desire to spend to sure advantage that makes your thoughtful planning a pleasure and not a task and often your personal sacrifice a joy and not a pain? Did you, I wonder, read Dr. Russell's remarkable article in the March issue? If so you must have dwelt long upon the richness of a single paragraph which seemed more than any of the others to carry a wealth of deep significance and a rare fullness of meaning. So beautifully does it fit into the GOOD HOUSEKEEPING scheme of things, so truly does it blend with the purpose of the work we are trying to do, that I want to give it to you again: "I will undertake to guarantee the stability of our American democratic institutions if you will see to it that American wives are taught how best to spend the money their husbands earn. Somewhere in the last ten per cent. of a man's income are hidden away his present happiness and future prospects." How many wives and-quite as important-how many husbands have stopped to think of it just this way before? The bigness of a job is measured only by the opportunities it presents. "To spend the money her husband earns"-What an opportunity and what a worth while calling for the housewife who sees her mission in such a light. And we, too, of Good HOUSEKEEPING have an opportunity, an opportunity to make these advertising pages an ever ready and absolutely safe counsel for you who, in your spending, will to purchase wisely and well. Such a service as this represents the part that we may take in making your problems easier to solve the part that all advertising must take if you, whose business it is to spend, are to spend with profit and faith. The day's work with us here brings, as it does with you, a measure of both the bitter and the sweet. Through it all, however, making the shaded places lighter and the bright spots even more bright, comes the consciousness that we are trying to render helpful service. To be willing to serve you is in itself a little thing to be able to do so is the great end to which we strive. Are we making headway-are you feeling the force of our work-catching the spirit of our efforts for believable, usable advertising? It would be a rich reward to have you say as much. 119 West 40th St., New York. Advertising Manager. OPEN LETTER |
