In almost every town and city there are homes where the children are
just at the age to prevent the mother and father from going out to the
theater, church, parties, etc., in the evening.
These people cannot afford to keep a maid, but could and would pay $2 an
evening to a reliable girl or woman to come in and stay with the
children once a week.
Why not spend two dollars in want ads telling these people about your
plan. It would be easy to get six families who would pay you two dollars
each per week; Monday at the Smith’s, Tuesday at the Brown’s, etc.
This is especially good for the girl who studies, since the children
will go to bed by 8 o’clock and the remainder of the evening can be
spent quietly studying or reading.
