of the Chicago National Housewives'
emaciation, Rev, Jenkin Lloyd Jones
said: "A girl who cannot make and
bake bread, compounds pudding and
wash and iron her own shirtwaist is a
fraud upon young American woman-
hood, and you mothers and housewives'
are to blame for the common feeling of
your daughters against kitchen service.
This servant girl question is becoming
more vital than trusts, tariff or any-
thing else in the nation's category of
unsettled things. It affecte the home
and family, the most sacred institutions
in the land, and has much to do with
the unhappiness of the nation. The
idea that kitchen work ie menial must
be corrected and the lessons must begin
at home—in every home." The speaker
further expressed himself in favor of a
large school of domestic science for
girls to offset the manual training
schools for boys.
