Manual of Exercises in Hand Sewing - Adopted by Industrial by Grade Schools #251758

To introduce sewing successfully in the public schools, three important points must be considered. First, the merit of the system. Second, the effect upon the school work and upon the pupil. Third, the abil ity or efficiency of those who superintend or teach the sewing.
