, i The President of the American
Scool of Household Economics, Chi.
cago, has offered to give suggestions
as to the best methods for the study
, Of Government Bulletins.
Is Home Economics a Profitable and
Interesting Field for Club Study?
1t is to those who regard home.
making as their most important life
work. The wealth of material to be
; studied is one of the chief difficulties
Housekeeping may be an old story
but all that goes to make up "the
profession Of home-making, provides
field of fascinating research.
We all realize that industrially the
world has made tremendous advances
during the last generation or two,
but 1t is equally true that knowledge
Of the arts an dsciences relating to the
home has kept pace. The good old
ways of our grandmothers are no less
out of date than the stage coach and
the spinning wheel. 1t is indeed
worth while to get little more edu-
cation for life.
i The responsibility for the future of

and future home makers, and on
study and training depends the right
adjustment Of the home to the
changes now taking place in modern

and Importance of the interests at
stake calls for greater attention to
the study of home problems by wom-
ems clubs and warrants that their
i tremendous influence be exerted more
strongly for the Introduction of teach
ing Of home economics In the public
4 and private schools Of America.
