The world is full of cook-books, with excellent receipts, easily adapted to this system. What I have tried to do, is to help you to a plan of work. The letters to scholars you can put into your own words, and give as your own, or you can say, " Miss Huntington's letter given In connection with this lesson is as follows." It was a pleasant thought that I might be able to teach many pupils, even at a distance. The lessons are planned for a class of twelve (12) to be really at work, and any number looking on. Lessons can be given in any room, and a wardrobe can be used to hold the utensils, the doors of which can be arranged to unhinge and lay on trestles, and used as work-tables ; while the stove can be set on castors, for convenience In moving It. But a kitchen garden room Is best, and to have the children march in and sit at kitchen garden tables. Then, if the same lesson Is given four (4) times, and the receipts changed to different girls, all the twelve (12) at work will have tried each of the four receipts, and all the class have the benefit of the others' practice.
