TEACHING HOUSE WORK.
The Edinburgh School of Cookery and Domestic Economy promises to be very busy this winter .session of 188l;2, Under the head of Cookery, we find demonstration lessons and practice lessons. Teachers are trained for the school and elsewhere, and cooked meals are sold daily at moderate prices. Starching ironing, and doing-up fine lace—the latter, according to the French method—also enter into their programme. The cutting out and fitting of dresses is taught three times a week; and with a view to assisting the sick and wounded, bandaging is taught; and a course of sick nursing lectures is. to be arranged in the early part of the year. Homely talks are to be given on health subjects to mothers’ meetings of working women. A library has started for lending out books on food, cookery and physiology, at Id a night; and a ladies’ club has been started in connection with the school.
