testing the water, the goose-pimples
incident upon emergence from the
tub, the hasty towelling and the
shivering dive under the covers—
all Americana,
rightful heritage.
The Saturday Night Bath ranks
with the Mother-in-Law and the
Absent-Minded-Professor as a sure-
fire laugh-getter; but I sometimes
wonder how many of us would pass
up the daily shower and tub if we
had to roll the makings into the
kitchen, shoo out the children and
neighbors, heat the water on the
stove, and worst of all empty the
tub after the ablutions. It took
a hefty man to empty a tub single-
handed, but the tub could be bailed
out until the water reached a rea-
sonable level. This probably ac-
counted for the customary low-tide.
What the bather lacked in quantity.
he made up for in vigor of execu-
tion and attention to detail. The
end result was apt to be redolent
of yellow soap and sticky as to hair,
but the boost to the self-respect and
sense of well-being was teriffic.
With no central heating in these
older houses, and the bedrooms
shut off from the rest of the house
during the daytime, going to bed
after the S. N. B. was a matter
requiring gerts, a breaking of the
ice on a grand scale. The mothers
of the rising generation, realizing
the hardship, softened the blow by
wrapping a soapstone or a sizzling
brick in layers of newspaper and
putting it to bed in about the spot
where little Johnny's rear elevation
would ultimately come to rest. Lit-
tle Johnny, upon diving under the
covers, gave the soapstone a. push
to the foot of the bed, leaving a
delightfully hot spot to lie upon and
providing a radiant surface for the
feet. This forestalled waking up
some time during the night with the
feet tied around the neck in a
double-bow knot, and. the bottom
of the bed an icy and unexplored
waste of sub-zero sheet.
Another method of tempering the
wind to the shorn lamb was to use
light-weight blankets instead of
sheets. Judging from recent mail-
order catalogues, a good many mil-
lions of the backbone of our coun-
try still go for flannelette night-
gowns and blanket sheets, prefer-
ring warmth to glamour. In fact,
flannel pajamas seem to have come
out of the country and gone to bed
in the city with a fine disregard for
steam-heat. Red wool unmention-
ables are making a strong come-
back under ski pants, and long wool
socks of every conceivable hue are)
part of every school-girl’s wardrobe.
With modern emphasis upon san-
itation and comfort and unlimited
hot water, as exemplified by the in-
nermost shrine of the Great Ameri-
can Home, the bathroom, it is
always amusing to watch the reac-
tion of people who are moving out
into the country for the summer
to do a little roughing-it. When I
consider the rent I once paid for
a cottage on Cape Cod, a cottage of
three rooms with a stubborn pump
in the kitchen sink and a very in-
ferior chemical arrangement in a
little room at the rear, I marvel
at the inconveniences that people
are willing to put up with. We
leave our comfortable homes at the
slightest excuse and let ourselves
in for the most astonishing array
of makeshifts.
I have some friends in town who
strain at the leash until they can
move out to their windswept hill
for the summer. They exchange

ease of living—with plenty of hot
water—for an pilstove and a fire-
place and a dormitory bedroom
with the sheep separated from the
goats by a sagging line of army
blankets, a pump two blocks away
down a steep hill, and a modest
little Chic Sale. They have them-
selves a perfectly swell time. One
day last spring they drove out that
way in a severe rainstorm to gaze
longingly from the hill and dream
of summer, and as the car topped
the last rise they noticed that the
Chic Sale seemed to be riding the
waves at a rakish angle. As the
family came closer and closer the
collapse became more and more ap-
parent. I believe that Chic Sale,
in his immortal volume, recom-
mends anchoring such structures
firmly to an upright, sunk several
feet in the ground, as an insurance
against Hallowe'en revelry and
heavy Northeasters.
It's all a matter of relativity. If
you are traveling through the Arc-
tic, pemmican and a frozen fish and
a weatherproof Igloo may represent
the height of luxury. When you
get that yen to get-away-from-it-all
in the summer time, you are willing
to burn a kerosene lamp and take
a bath in a quart cup, paying heavy
for the privilege and exchanging
ease for Ozone.

Thirty Churches Minister To Religious,
Social And Cultural Needs Of Community
As in most rural and suburban areas, churches in the Back Mountain
section are not only the religious center but also the social center of
community activity. Over 4,000 church members and as many Sun-
day School members attend services in the 30 or more odd churches of
the area every Sunday. At Epworth League meetings, Bible Classes,
choir practice, W. C. T. U., Ladies’ Aid and official board meetings, mem-
bers gather in their churches throughout the week for recreation and
intellectual stimulation.
