Children May Be Taught to Like Work About Home London Free Press:â€"It is perhaps too much to expect the sons and daughters oi toâ€"day to find as much interest and entertainment in family tasks as memâ€" bers of earlier generations «did. There are too many competing interests. But the girl who learns to cook and keep house and the boy who masters the inâ€" tricacies of the family furnace or learns to shovel walks or mow lawns with speed and completeness, have learned lessons which are as valuable as any on their school curriculum. .
