w. scarcer and prices higher
makes this question all the more impor-
tant. and this may account in part for
the tremendous interest shown In The
Times Home Economies school, which
opened in Rowland hall ON North Main
street this afternoon.
These classes, conducted by Emma
Hanko, food expert and graduate OF
Pratt institute, are open to all women
of Barre, cooks and would-be cooks.
They began this afternoon at 2;5O ana
there is no charge of any kind. The en-
tire course will be absolutely free and
indications are that it will be well at
tended. A very large crowd OF Barre
housewives was on hand at the opening
of the school to-day, to greet MISS
Hanko and give her a cordial welcome.
Miss Hanko is well-known lecturer
on domestic science and spoke in num-
Der of New England cities last season
on the application Of this science to
every day housekeeping She is a grad
uate of Pratt institute and has learned
and teaches that domestic science Is
practical home science and not merely a
Interests All Glasses.
Her lectures are quite as interesting
to women who think they are good
cooks and whose friends agree with
them as they are to women who feel
that they still have much TO learn on
this important subject. There are many
women who have never given serious
consideration to the nourishing values OF
the various foods they prepare. There
are many who cook every day who are
not trained in the proper methods OF
preparing the most wholesome food, and
there are comparatively few good pastry
cooks in the land. All who are attend
ing Miss Hanko's lectures this afternoon
and those who attend subsequent SEES
sions of The Times Home Economics
school. win learn the best and easiest
methods of preparing foods both from
her lectures and from her cookery dem
onstrations.
This afternoon she went TO the very
bottom of things culinary and taught
the fundamental principles underlying
the art of cooking, In connection with
this talk she prepared number OF
dainty and delightsome dishes, and one
of the pleasing features of this and
every other session of The Times Home
Economics school will be the serving OF
these dishes to the members of Miss
Hanko's classes.
viii Serve Everybody.
Miss Hanko spent very busy morn
ing getting everything in shape for the
opening session this afternoon, and in
preparing number of the dishes on her
menu. She said: "Of course, every
dish that is served will be prepared by
me before our cookery class, but we
could not prepare enough of each dish
for everyone to have a taste, and so,
using the methods demonstrated in the
afternoon, we spend a good part of each
morning preparing supply of foods
beforehand, so that no one need be dis
appointed"
There are five more sessions of The
Times Home Economics school, and il is
hoped that no woman in Barre will miss
the opportunity Of hearing Miss Hanko
and seeing her cook. Tomorrow the
mothers of Barre will be particularly
interested in her lecture on Child Feed
ing" In her cookery demonstration she
will use the freless cooker Her Tues
day menu is especially attractive and
will include:
Roast Chicken.
Dreamed Vegetables. Crullers.
Lemon Pie.
Gold Cake. Baked Ice Cream.
