HOUSEHOLD MANAGEMENT In the days of our grandmothers or even our mothers, there were no courses offered in schools to teach the management of the home. The mothers of the girls taught them these things, and this was the natural thing. When the factory system began and mothers had to work away from the home in order to increase the family income, they didn't have a chance to teach their daughters about the care of the home. As inventions helped with the manufacture of products in fac- tories, other devices were being developed to help the woman with her housework. To get the most from these inventions and perform the duties of the home quickly in the best way possible, home management courses have been begun comparatively recently. Miss Ethel Wooden, our principal, and Mrs. Emily Leister met with an advisory committee to develop a curriculum to improve girls for better household jobs, whether in their own homes or the homes of others. The real object of the course, however. is to prepare girls for employment on a non-professional level in institutions or private homes. To enter this course girls must have completed the ninth grade or its equivalent. An interest and ability in food preparation, a liking for children and invalid care are the prerequisites for enrollment in the Household Management Course. Mental ability to understand related material and physical fitness are also necessities for each applicant. In order to develop the skills for household management and child care the student must progress in food, clothing, laundry, hygiene, and maintenance work. The instructor, Miss Cecelia Earhart, acts as coordinator of all courses and adviser. Employment and production work in the twelfth year can be arranged on a credit basis with agencies, institutions, and private homes where the developed skills are in demand. Because this is a large and ever increasing field of employment, we hope to have a high placement record as the reputation of the course and its products becomes known. 57
