men of the county who are interested
in good foods for their families, is an
enthusiastic domestic scientist Be
l!eVing in this practical science not

what it will do, she says it is a sci
ence of home making, and that women
are everywhere beginning to see how
helpful it is and how far reaching is
it's scope. In her Better Foods. Better
Homes travels she finds that women
are learning to be better home makers
and housekeepers and cooks through
the influence Of domestic science
teaching. Especially in New England
where Miss Hanllo has lectured con-
tinually for the past two years, does
she find an active and effective inter-
est in domestic science teaching and
its application to the care of the home.

tic science teachers and students are
interested in her work and attend her
classes regularly. Teachers, pupils,
and club women of Augusta who are
interested in domestic science are in
vited to be members of Miss Hankos
cookery classes in City Hall this week.
This cookery expert believes that
the influence of good cooking
cannot be overestimated, and that
all good cooks should know ev-
erything there is to know about
foods as well as how to prepare them.
This is one of the subjects she pre-
sents in her lecture course in an en-
tertaining as well as instructive man.
