Home Problems from a New Standpoint

This work by American home economist Caroline L. Hunt examines how the home, by agreeing to use factory products and by hiring outside help, has entangled itself in a colossal labor problem; how by educating its daughters to support themselves in occupations unconnected with its management, it has complicated its original issue of household administration; by entrusting the education of its children to schools, the care of its sick to hospitals, the security of its water supply, and other vital interests, to town councils or village boards, it has entered into public affairs. Home has brought new problems and new commitments, opportunities, and privileges to women and men. Hunt discusses these new duties, possibilities, and benefits in this work.
