Essential to the Education of Girls in Practical Home Economies is the teaching in schools of the many uses of a sewing machine to save time and money. as well as to gratify a. taste for the beautiful. The Singer should. as a. matter of course. he the only machine in school equipment because it is in most general use. Its cost is no more than for less desiralwle machines. and it is placed in the school on such liberal terms of payment that no school ofiicer can plead poverty as an excuse for not having it. Should the pupil enter employment in any of the stitching industries, lt-er knowledge of the Singer will be of great advantage because it is universally used by such industries. THE SINGER COMPANY furnishes schools. without charge, large Wall charts illustrating stitch formation, also text hooks for sewing classes. SINGER SHOPS are located in every city, and machine repairs, needles, oil, etc., are easily obtained. Edward F. Foley O cial Photographer 383 FIFTH AVE.. At 36th St. IE.
