TEEN-AGERS GET BIGGEST BREAK Whose life Is made easier hy the electric dishwasher? Everyone assumes it is Mama's. But back in the old days the children of the family were responsible for clearing the table, washing, drying and putting' away the dishes.

It looks as though the dishwasher is a bigger boon to children and teen-agers than to housewives. Who gets the most out of all the quick and easy to prepare foods oa the market today Just Mama? No indeed. All kinds of family outings and recreation are possible today because Mama doesn't, have to spend long hours in the kitchen or take up half of Sunday preparing Sunday dinner. When you get right down to facts, anything that, makes Mama' work easier benefits the whole family. For Mama doesn't squander the time -saved on herself.

She uses It to make life more enjoyable for the whole family. (All rights reserved, NEA Service, Inc.)
