CHAPTER III.
BUDGETING YOUR TIME.
Introduction by Mrs. B. M. Boykin — President Atlanta Woman's
Club.
In these very busy days when every woman is working, as
she thinks, to her greatest capacity and then does not always gel
through, suppose she stops and takes stock. — She will find that she
could have done much more and been less tired if only she had
mapped out her day and stuck to her schedule, but she lets every-
thing hinder her.
While starting out to buy her groceries somebody called and
talked so long over the 'phone she was late. Consequently, after
marketing she was late to her engagement and so on. Let us learn
to shorten unnecessary conversation, be prompt for each engage-
ment, conduct our daily lives with the same efficiency which is
used by business men. A place for everything, everything in its
place — a time for everything and everything on time ; — leaves plenty
of opportunity for healthful recreation and, at the same time, a
consciousness of carrying one's program of work satisfactorily.
The war helped every woman toward economy. Let us carry
on now in saving our strength and getting better results from our
time.
