IN FARMINGTON, THE WOMAN of the house is just that. No maids to do the housework while madame lolls in bed. So the first thing every morning comes housecleaning for Martha Jackson (Right), with a few firm whacks for the sofa cushions. While housework is a drudgery to many women, when handled properly, even as Martha Jackson does, there is always time for relaxation before lunch. Martha (Below) does a little mending while she talks over with husband Jim the new plans for the garden club and beautification of Farmington. There is an unlimited telephone service in Farmington, fortunate for the Jack sons and fortunate for Cora (Lower-Right). Every morning she can be depended upon to drop in to make her couple of dozen Phone calls and check up on what's doing in the town. LUCY JACKSON (LEFT), THOUGH STILL in her ‘teens, is one of the belles of Farmington. She never shirks when it comes to lending a hand with the dishes, for she is mighty proud of the Jacksons’ new shiny kitchen. The new equipment came with the new house into which the family moved when their old one burned down last fall. Get a shiny kitchen and you'll get daughter to help with the dishes—a moral.
