The custoruat v louone til' public

Monday evening last by an Addrese by
Mrs. Adelaide Ilocelless, of Ibiurtl•
tun. uu for subject of dumeetic
wiener iu the tochools. Mrs. UoodIcsa
had written to the boast at the last

She opened her to tiotrke by explain.

and her work and the Education h. -
pertinent. While her work wee Ap-
proved and backed up by late Depart-
ment, rbe prefernxl not to be.
en employee of the Department in
the ordinary sense. She arranged her
own work entirely, both as to the
time she de'vut4d to the work and as
to the places she held meetings. Her
undertaking of the work arose in the
first place from her Grilse of the inade-
quee•F of erdiwu•y school education to
tit guts for the duties 41f life. She
Went to Hun. U. W. hues twelve us'
fifteen yeas, ago and he at first
thought the plan w.as' ivapt•acticable•
but, later sent.. for .het, and she was
authorized to interest ..•heal jsxatdrin
the work of domestic s•ieure and
given a freehand as to Idethoxls. The

wee as line a training erhexl for
t could eSu•berr in this work as cr til 1 Lr
found anywhere in the world, and
domestic silence was mauls a pat of
the training of girls et tau• Nerrwel
schools. Mtn, Huuailrsa told of her
work-in connection with the Y. %V. C.
A. in her home city of Hamilton.
She was for fourteen years president
of the Y. V. C. A. and in conpect'
with a claw in domestic science she
had fumed a deplorable ignorance of
the proper ways of doing things.
Nineiy.per cent,. of the w •n of the
cuunLry were engaged in the [tininess
of home•waking lewd yet tht•t•t• was no
provision made for teaching there the
Imsinesa. The boy went through a
long courser of training to nrepar'e
hint Lo be a doctor or as lawyer, but
the girl was eNpeeled to know how to
cook and manage a home by intuition.
and the renult WA. that many young
wives foowl that all their love for
their husbands failed to teach Zhou
how to cook a meal and that many
}Dung '4oaalnands had a quick dieif-
lusiouwent during the ready venrs of
their married life. Mrs. fioaxlleta
contrttate'.1 the old days when the
home was the rents• of industry arid -
the girl. Lusk an interest in it to the
pt'esent conditionof. things when
everything watt done in factories and
girls woald 'sooner he at almost any
Otherwork than beuseht,id work. The
remedy was to gite the girls greater
interest in tri work of the hone. by
snaking it a businnes and establishing
a standard way of doing things -there
was Only one hest wayy-instt:•til of
having r ever woman du the eau*
thin in a di creat way. Food y:dues
needed to th studied -th forret that
was good for the student was not the
kind tor the workingman -and the
same food might be made to give IUs
per oent. of notirishrnent or only ten
percent. by the way it was cooked.
The introduction of domestic s.'ience,
Mrs. Hoodle•es ', aatmel, did not ►neap
adding a new subject to an alremly
crowded curriculum. but ainiply a
chabge in the methods of teaching.
In measuring the quantities ..f the
various ingredients the girls learned
arithmetic with much its.,. effort than
by figuring out how Hauch lumber
there would be in a' pile of a given sire
or how couch cement it would take to
cement :a well -problems they would
never meet in after life.
She gave nine reasons why domestic
aefenee should be taught in public
schools :
- 1. To five children an intelligent
interest in and ea wholesome regard
for the one potione in the home.
2. To ori school and h into

close our doors to give our salespeople a chance. The first crush being over, we
got a chance to breathe and to sort up our shelves, but we find we have not
yet room to display all the new goods we have purchased and have decided
to again cut prices along many lines which were already cut. The following
list will interest you :

proached a wholesaler in
