For Housewife's Outlook Loafing Is Dangerous Idea By BARBARA CLOUD The American housewife has been urged to do more loafing. It's true. According to sociologist Dr. Helen Hurd, the little woman needs more time to think about life and its savory offerings. This could be dangerous.

If she has too much time to think she might rebel and decide that life is too joyous to spend it taking out the garbage, washing walls, ironing a dozen of her husband's shirts each week. There are many people of the helief that given too much time to think you can usually think of trouble. For instance if an ordinary housewife sits down for her "thinking hour" each day, she A Pitaburqh Prasi, Monday, Septmbr II, Iffl Jeanne Arthur Is Bride-Elect Her Betrothal Announced To Christian H.

She has been advised to do more loafing, but how does she manage to follow this advice? If you have ever listened to the schedule for a routine day in the life of a housewife, you are left breathless. She is a combination chauffeur-cook-play-mate-maid.

One housewife complained that when her husband asked her what she did all day she couldn't think of any way to explain it. "If he can't see anything I've done, he thinks I've done nothing but gab with the neighbors," she wailed. "Just keeping up with a two-year-old is my whole day," says another wife and mother. "When do I have time to think?" Some housewives claim they do a lot of thinking, but not much loafing. "I'm usually thinking what I'll have for dinner while I'm deciding what Susan needs for school.

Or I'm trying to find a way to get a stain out John's shirt while I'm thinking of some way to squeeze in a vacation for this year," Quite a few wives agree that they would feel guilty if they planned to loaf. "My neighbors think I'm a sad excuse for a housewife already," sighed one woman, "simply because I don't mind leaving dishes in the sink while I play with my daughter. Or if someone suggests I go swimming, I'm ready to go, no matter whether the house needs dusting or not. Is that loafing?" Another wife said: "If I decided to loaf and sit out in my back yard with a lemonade in my hand in the middle of the day, I'd be the talk of the neighborhood. It isn't a bad idea though.

I just don't see how you can loaf when you have a house and family to care for. It's always something." If loafing means setting aside time to do what YOU want to do, even if it means cleaning out closets or just reading a magazine, then women like the idea. But if Dr. Hurd, who addressed the National Home Demonstration Council meeting at the University of Maine recently, means to do nothing but sit and count your blessings the ladies are willing if somebody can just make the time! Photographed by The Pittsburgh Press MISS MILKMAID COES TO COLLECE and has the might start to think how tired she is and as a result envy her husband, who is on a business trip to New York. Suddenly, he'll be blamed for not giving her a maid and when he returns home expecting to be greeted cheerfully, there wifey will sit with all kinds of complaints all of them out of reason just because she had time to think.

Dr. Hurd might begin to receive nasty mail from irate husbands if this were the case. The Europeans who visit this country are usually aghast at the pace set by both men and women. They can't understand hectic lunch hours. "In Europe," explained one woman, "the businessman hangs a sign on his door that he has gone to lunch.

There is no frantic rush to return if he is with friends and is enjoying himself. Here you are concerned with the dollar and not with enjoying the best things in life. You must return to work in one hour, that's the rule." Americans have geared themselves to a dif fun of picking her campus wardrobe, with the assist of Beth Wainwright, advisor in the College Shop at orne's.
