Book excerpt: Excerpt from Baby-Week Campaigns: Suggestions for Communities of Various Sizes One of the developments of the profound and growing interest in the welfare of babies during the past few years is the Baby Week. The baby-week campaigns, which have been held in many cities, are primarily educational; their purpose is twofold - first, to give to the parents of a community the opportunity of learning the facts with regard to the care of their babies; second, to make known to a com munity the importance of its babies, the special facts relating to the babies of the community, and the need of permanent work for their welfare. These purposes it carries out in various ways - by news paper and advertising publicity, by meetings and entertainments, and by such activities as a program of daily events, an infant - welfare ex bibit, a baby health conference, plays, etc. In addition, there has been included in some cities the third purpose of gathering funds for infant-welfare work. The first Baby Week, which was held in Chi cago in April, 1914, was of this type; also that of Grand Rapids, Mich., in 1915. The conditions and needs for securing money for infant-welfare work and the methods applicable vary so greatly in communities of various sizes that it has been thought best not to con sider this type of campaign in the present general bulletin, which will deal only with Baby Weeks whose purpose is solely educational. A Baby Week having the purpose of making known to parents and to the whole community facts which they should know about babies may be held successfully in communities of all sizes. The form that such a Baby Week may take will, however, vary greatly in different places. A rural community will probably not wish to carry out the elaborate program which would seem necessary in a big city to reach all the people. On the other hand, many large cities may not be ready at a certain time to carry on an elaborate program which will demand considerable expense and the constant labor of many people, but may be anxious nevertheless to bring the subject of babies to the attention of the public to an extent which will achieve substantial results. This bulletin, therefore, will give suggestions for a Baby Week of two different types. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an era when the dominant ideology divided the world into separate public and private spheres and relegated women to the private, Anna J. Hardwicke Pennybacker ardently promoted progressive causes including public education, women's suffrage, social reform, and the League of Nations. A Texas educator, clubwoman, writer, lecturer, and social and political activist whose influence in the early twentieth century extended nationwide, Pennybacker wrote A New History of Texas, which was the state-adopted textbook for Texas history from 1898–1913 and remained in classroom use until the 1940s. She was also active in the burgeoning women’s club movement and served as president of both the Texas Federation of Women’s Clubs and the General Federation of Women’s Clubs (1912–14). The latter position was considered by some to be the most powerful position for a woman in America at that time. Kelley King has mined the fifty-two linear feet of Pennybacker archives at the University of Texas Center for American History to reconstruct the "hidden history" of a feminist's life and work. There, she uncovered an impressive record of advocacy, interlaced with a moderate style and some old-fashioned biases. King's work offers insight into the personal and political choices Pennybacker made and the effects these choices had in her life and on the American culture at large.
