To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The time has passed when any thinking man or woman will advocate the same kind or type of work for boys and girls alike. In the early grades all may engage in similar occupations, but differentiation should not be long de- layed and work suitable to the aptitudes, desires and needs of girls should be offered and required. At present, aside from art training and physical cul- ture, no industrial work is given the girls save sewing and cooking, and these in the upper grammar grades and a few spec...ial high schools. It is unnecessary to enter here into a discussion as to why these arts cannot or are not taught in the home. Such economic and sociological questions are involved as seem to be a barrier to home teaching, although the value of home instruction is un- questioned. Continuous courses through the grades, the high school and the college should be offered. Not only sewing and cooking in the narrower aspects, but a study of the chemistry of foods, simple analysis, marketing in its economic aspects; house sanitation, plumbing, heat, light, ventilation, fuel, disinfectants; proper methods of sweeping, dusting, laundering and care of the home; hygiene, emergency aid and nursing; a knowledge of ac- counts and business forms, domestic architecture and planning of the house and grounds; gardening and tree and floral culture and much more that in the Swiss schools is included under the term "female hand work" and which is both practical and cultural.
