THE CALL OF THE LAND 



Two classes of women are benefited by 

 these courses, those who seek general in- 

 formation and culture and desire to make 

 their lives helpful and efficient in the home, 

 and those who, likewise wishing informa- 

 tion and culture, expect to use their accom- 

 plishments as means of maintenance for 

 themselves or for others. 



The thought is to raise the standards of 

 home life, to help individuals become 

 healthier and happier and a greater power 

 for intellectual and moral good in the 

 community. Physical, intellectual and 

 moral life so closely blend that it is impossi- 

 ble to abuse or neglect the physical nature 

 or even be careless about it without injury 

 to the whole being. 



Women with skillful hands, trained minds 

 and cultivated hearts, cannot but bear more 

 wisely than others the home responsibilities 

 sure to devolve on them, and they utilize 

 better the many opportunities which women 

 enjoy to render kindly service outside their 

 homes.
