The Gate City Home Economics
School is already attracting wide
spread attention, and women who are
attending claim to be receiving much
more than just good things to eat, al
though they are thoroughly enjoying
the dainty dishes prepared and served
by Miss Peet. yesterday afternoon
she told them just how to make pastry
that is delicately flaky and easily di-
gested. MEN will have pie" says
Miss Peet. $50 give them good pastry
the kind that can do them no harm
Miss Peet believes and teaches that
women should study enough about
foods to know just what is good for
their families, and insists that the
woman who feeds her family without
this knowledge has much to be re-
sponsible for. She insists that not
only mental efficiency is dependent
upon good food, but that it has a
strong effect upon the morals, and that
science proves that most degenerates
are suffering from malnutrition.
