The actual work of housekeeping may vary in different localities and under different economic conditions, but, by the present generation at least, certain fundamental proc- esses will be carried on in the average home. These are patching, darning, mending, care, and making of clothes; planning, preparing, and serving meals; market- | ing and purchasing the things needed in the home and by - members of the family; care of the house, including sweep- ing, dusting, and cleaning; rearing of children and care of sick and aged. | ) While school instruction in some of these subjects must be purely theoretical and hence of little value unless oppor-_ tunity can be afforded for practical work, cooking and sew- ing may be taught in the one-room rural school with simple equipment and no great expenditure of money. This work will be of little value, however, unless what is learned at school is practiced at home, and for this reason girls’ clubs should be organized, contests and school fairs should be held, and school credit should be given for home work. 194 TEACHING COOKING IN RURAL SCHOOLS ~— 195 The lessons suggested may be given for one or two periods a week, preferably the last hour in the session as the work may then extend for a longer period of time without inter- fering with school work.
