Excerpt from Alabama Technical Institute and College for Women, Vol. 13: Proceedings of the Fifth Annual Conference of the Alabama Home Economics Association, January 30 and 31, 1920 Friday, January 30, 1920. The Fifth Annual Conference of the Alabama Home Economics Association met at Montevallo January 30-31, 1920. This was the first meeting since 1918. Owing to the prevalence of influenza, there was no meeting in 1919. Preceding the regular meetings, a conference of all Vocational Home Economics teachers was called by Mr. Spright Dowell, State Superintendent of Education, and Miss Ivol Spafford, State Supervisor of Vocational Home Economics. Miss Spafford´s address on "Vocational Home Economics - Its Meaning, Its Aims, and Its Standards" made the subject very clear to everyone. In the absence of Miss Sarah Bandy, President of the Association, the evening exercises were presided over by the Vice-President, Mrs. Chappell Cory. Miss Hannah Crook, of the Voice Department, sang most beautifully "Sea Dreams," by Metcalf. Dr. Palmer, in a few well-chosen words, extended a welcome to all visitors. This was followed by a "Serenade" for flute, clarinet, violin, violoncello, and piano, charmingly rendered by representatives of the Music Department. Mrs. Cory, in her own gracious manner, introduced the speaker of the evening, Miss Isabel Bevier, of the University of Illinois, one of the leading authorities in the field of home economics. Her subject was "Some Advanced Steps in Education." She emphasized the necessity for all young women to study home economics that they might be more efficient in solving the daily problems which the war showed so plainly must be met. After this address, an informal reception was given by the Home Economics Department to the visitors, the faculty and officers and the Senior Class of the college. Saturday, January 31. The 8 o´clock meeting was presided over by Mrs. Cory. Mr. J. B. Hobdy, State Director of Vocational Education, delivered an eloquent and inspiring address on "The Place of the Home Economics Teacher in the School System." Miss Stella Palmer gave many helpful and practical suggestions for carrying the work into the homes. Her address on "Home Projects" will be found elsewhere in this bulletin. At the regular chapel hour, Miss Bevier talked most interestingly to the visitors, faculty, and student body on the subject, "What Men Live By." Dr. Palmer then called attention to the bill now before Congress entitled "A Bill to Co-operate with the States in Promotion of Vocational Education in Home Economics, to Appropriate Money and Regulate Its Expenditure." Miss Palmer, who was familiar with the bill, explained very clearly its purpose and progress. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
