From:         Doug Austin <austind@GOV.ON.CA>
Subject:      Excerpts from HOME ECONOMICS course from the 1950's PART ONE

This is actual text from a Home Economics guide used in Ontario, Canada
during the 1950's.  This segment is titled "THE FASCINATING WOMANHOOD WAY
TO WELCOME A MAN WHEN HE COMES HOME FROM WORK"

GET YOUR WORK DONE: Plan your tasks with an eye of the clock.  Finish or
interrupt them an hour before he is expected.  Your anguished cry, "Are
you home already?" is not exactly a warm welcome.

HAVE DINNER READY:  Plan ahead, even the night before to have a delicious
meal, on time.  This is a way of letting him know that you have been
thinking about him and are concerned about his needs.  Most men are hungry
when they come home and the prospects of a good meal are part of the warm
welcome needed.

PREPARE YOURSELF: Take 15 minutes to rest so you will be refreshed when he
arrives.  This will also make you happy to see him instead of too tired to
care.  Turn off the worry and be glad to be alive and grateful for the man
who is going to walk in.  While you are resting you can be thinking about
your F.W. assignment and all you can do to make him happy and give his
spirits a lift.  When you arise, take care of your appearance.  Touch up
your makeup, put a ribbon in your hair and be fresh looking.  He has just
been with a lot of work-weary people.  Be a little gay and a little more
interesting.  His boring day may need a lift.

CLEAR AWAY THE CLUTTER: Make one last trip through the main part of the
house just before your husband arrives, gathering up school books, toys,
paper, etc. in a bucket or wastebasket and put them in the back bedroom
for sorting later.  The run a dustcloth over the tables.  Your husband
will feel he has reached a haven of rest and order and it will give you a
lift too.  Having the house in order is another way of letting him know
that you care and have planned for this homecoming.

PREPARE THE CHILDREN: Take just a few minutes to wash the children's hands
and faces (if they are small) comb their hair, and if necessary change
their clothes.  They are little treasures and he would like to see them
the part.

MINIMIZE ALL NOISE: Especially give heed to this if your husband has to
join rush hour traffic. At the time of his arrival eliminate noise of
washer, dryer, dishwasher or vacuum.  Try to encourage the children to be
quiet at the time of their father's arrival.  Let them be a little noisy
beforehand to get it out of their system.

MORE TO COME TOMORROW.........CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS STUFF?

From:         Sara Rummelhart <RUMMELH@USCN.BITNET>
Subject:      Humor: The purpose of men's ties <males be warned>

"If men can run the world, why can't they stop wearing neckties? How
intelligent is it to start the day by tying a little noose around your
neck?"

The reason for wearing ties is simple; ever since the demise of the
cod-piece, the male of the species has worn a strip of cloth round his
neck for the sole purpose of pointing out his dick to the female of
the species. As for bow-ties . . .

Subject:      Offensive to Japanese

                Sorry if this offends anyone...

An optometric surgeon was on a plane flight and was seated next to a
Japanese man with the thickest glasses the surgeon had ever seen.  Aware
of the problems that can occur with extreme nearsightedness, the surgeon
asked, "Have you ever had cateracts?"  the Japanese man grinned and
replied, "No, never have cataracts.  Once have Rincorn Continenor
though."
