Special to THE MORNING CALL.

PACIFIC GROVE, June 29.-This forenoon
the thermometer climbed away up toward
ninety degrees, and everybody who did not
attend the various classes sought the beach
for the purpose of having a dip in the ocean.
In fact, there was such crowd there that
wOuld-be batherS had to stand in line for
time at the bath-house awaiting a chance to
get a dressing-roOm. Later in the day
breeze spra ne up which materially lowered
the temperature, but where people have
nothing else to do but make themselves
comfortable, it is never too warm here.
There are shady places everywhere where
one may stretch out and actually enjoy lit
tie warm weather.
Heretofore, In former years, lectures have
been on the programme for each forenoon,
but this year the classes have assumed I'M
usual proportions, and such an interest is
manifested in them that the early part of
the day is devoted to this work.
HOUSEHOLD SCIENCE.
This afternoon Mrs Sophie w. Knight of
Los Angeles opened her course of lectures
on 'uousehOld Science" witha talk On ''the
necessity of a more general knowledge of
the simple forms of cooking" and followed
by a demonstration on bread-making. Mrs.
Knight knows how 10 make 'hygienc
bread" which means bread that may be
eaten hot by dyspeptics without producing
dsagreeable results, and this knowledge
the lady endeayOred to impart to her audi
ence. Mrs. Knight has two large rooms
fitted up for kitchen and aIfdeuce-room in
the basement of Assembly Hall, where she
bakes her bread and other articles, and
initiates her pupils into the mysteries of the
culinary art
HOME MANAGEMENT.
She claims that one of the highest aims of
a woman'S life should be to know how to
manage home and make it attractive, and
recognizing the fact that the heart of man
lies close to his stomach, any woman who
would be housewife should make tech
nical study of how to prepare those things
which her life companion would enjoy eat
ing This idea is entertained by large
number of lades-some quite young and
others who are silent on the subject Of age,
and whose appearances are liable TO be de-
ceptiye-now visiting the grove, as the class
in attendance this afternoon testified. The
course will include six lectures, and in addi-
ton the lecturer will conduct class
throughout this week, after which she viii
90 to Long Beach 10 attend the Chautsuqua
Assembly.
