combat this in the way that belongs to the present age, 7.e., by expressing 
the value of home life in scientific terms. In the course about which I 
know most, that of King’s College for Women, one means taken to secure 
our ends is by the place given to economics. The students are constantly 
reminded that the sciences underlying home life must not be studied in 
isolation, but in relation to the whole of modern life. Biology is also made 
a fundamental subject for kindred reasons. I have no time in which to 
show how the courses in England differ from those described by Miss 
Benson. In the main the ends are the same. Perhaps the English students 
are preparing for a greater variety of careers than those who take up these 
subjects here, e.g., social settlement work, health visiting, social work in 
rural villages, as well as for the teaching of domestic science in a more 
scientific way than it has been taught up to the present.
