roasting, and group lessons that cannot be done on
the individual stoves, as well as for lessons in making
fires, care of stoves, the use of stoves at home, etc.
The large stoves are not absolutely necessary, as
small ovens may be used on the gas plates, or oil
stoves.
A sink with an extension, a garbage pail placed at
the side, a strainer over the opening in the sink, a
soap-dish, a roller-towel placed at the left of the sink,
a row of kitchen cabinets for extra dishes, and a china
closet for a dinner set should be provided. The
cabinets should contain drawers for table linen,
towels, dishcloth, silence cloth, napkins, extra cloths,
etc. The lower part may hold large kettles, waffle-
irons, etc.
There should be a supply table for supplies, which
two pupils, appointed from each class, are to keep
in order and properly provided.
The lockers for pupils' imiforms may be kept in the
laboratory, but it is much better to have a dressing-
room. Here the girls take off their wraps and put on
a uniform, consisting of cap, apron and sleevelets, or
a large apron with sleeves. A glass should be in the
room, so that the girls may put on their caps neatly.
These uniforms should be all white. In schools where
the girls sew, they may make the uniforms in the
sixth grade. A towel rack should be placed in the
laimdry room, if there is one, and after the dishes are
washed and put away the girls take turns each week
in washing out the towels used. One week a girl
washes the dishes and the next week she dries them;
the one who dries them usually washes the towel, as
her partner is busy putting away the dishpan, etc.

The dishcloths are always washed. They are hung
on the dishtowel rack, and another set of towels,
twelve in number, one for two girls, is taken from
the rack or drawer.
Three dozen towels are needed for the use of three
classes. Two dozen dishcloths are required, as they
can be used without waiting for them to dry. A
tub, washboard and a wringer are needed in the
laimdry. The extra dishes and utensils needed are
placed in one of the cabinets or closets.
For general equipment in the dining-room, a small
dinner set in a china closet is sufficient. This may
be selected, as a whole set is not necessary, — only
enough to show the setting of a table and the ser-sdng.
Silver knives, forks, and teaspoons, half a dozen of
each, are necessary.
6 soup-plates and soup-spoons.
12 small sized coffee-pots (J pt.).
12 small sized tea-pots (^ pt.).
12 cake pans — 4 inch.
12 toasters (medium size).
12 bread pans, 8 in. by 4 in. by S^in.
(These bread pans nlust be made to order.)
