Book excerpt: Excerpt from d104iles: A Handbook for the Student and the Consumer The growing emphasis upon textile study in college depart ments of home economics or household arts, and the increasing use of the textile industry as teaching material in other depart ments and other grades of schools, shows a recognition of the part that the textiles are playing in the development of civiliza tion and in our everyday life. Interest in the subject is still further accentuated by the movements now on foot to regulate the social-economic conditions in the textile and clothing indus tries and to secure standardization and honest labeling of textile products, as is being done for food products by the pure food laws.

Download or read book Textiles and Clothing Classic Reprint written by Ellen Beers McGowan and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-29 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Textiles and Clothing This book has been written primarily to meet a need arising from the introduction of the study of textiles into the curriculum of the high school. The aim has been, there fore, to present the subject matter in a form sufficiently simple and interesting to be grasped readily by the high school student, without sacrificing essential facts. It has not seemed desirable to explain in detail the mechanism of the various machines used in modern textile industries, but rather to show the student that the fundamental principles of textile manufacture found in the simple machines of primitive times are unchanged in the highly developed and complicated machinery of to-day. Minor emphasis has been given to certain necessarily technical paragraphs by printing these in type of a smaller size than that used for the body of the text. The authors emphasize the finished products and their relation to the household. Chapters have been introduced on the purchase, testing and economical use of textile ma terial, with the hope of pointing the way to a concrete and practical application of the study of textiles. The woman of to-day can no longer afford to be untrained in this respect, and because of present economic conditions a definite obliga tion is laid upon her to understand the nature and real worth of clothing material and house furnishings, in order to buy with judgment and economy. The girl in high school has the opportunity to acquire this knowledge, which will function in her later life. We are gradually breaking away from the formal teaching of sewing as an isolated subject.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Analysis of Woven Fabrics I feel that I should not be doing justice to those who have followed me did I not here pay some tribute to the work that has been carried out by lecturers in that department of the Bradford Technical College over which I have the honour to preside, and especially to the research work of Mr. Midgley, without which the present treatise would have lost much of its value. At the: time when I wrote my little treatise I could but give a skeleton-sketch of the methods whereby a fabric might not only be analysed in the Finished State but from these Finished Particulars the Loom Particulars ascertained. In the present treatise so fully are the changes from the Finished State back to the Loom Particulars for the various standard-cloths indicated that the designer may proceed without fear where previously he would not have ventured to tread. Mr. Midgley has also succeeded in bringing the Costing of Cloths up' to a previously unthought of state of efficiency. The present treatise may be regarded as a further step towards the more perfect application of scientific method.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Household Textiles Books on the subject of textiles have usually been written from the standpoint of the manufacturer or of the textile chemist. It has been the purpose of the writer to bring together in this book the general facts of most interest to the consumer. Those points have been chosen which will give a broader understanding of the textile market and aid in the selection and use of textile fabrics. Technical terms and manufacturing processes have been given only in so far as they give a general understanding of the conversion of fibers into cloth and throw light on the possibilities of adulteration. Information has been gathered from many sources, from books, government reports, visits to factories, shops. And museums. Suggestions and references for a more extended study have been given.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Study of Fabrics The object of this book is to give the reader a knowledge of the various textile fibers, their properties in regard to warmth and hygiene, their cleansing and laundering possibilities; and such understanding of the processes of manufacture as will enable her to judge, intelligently, good and bad materials, adulterations, prices, weaves, etc. Upon woman devolves the responsibility of the economical expenditure of the family income; it is her duty to know that she is receiving the worth of her money, and, yet, most women are dependent upon the word of the clerk, very often far more ignorant than the purchaser. The standard of materials will never be raised to its proper level, until the consumers are intelligent enough to make the demand. A detailed study is made of each of the common textile fibers used for household purposes - cotton, linen, wool, and silk - taking up the growth, manufacture, physical, and chemical properties with special emphasis on the practical household tests which may be used in detecting adulterations and judging of the quality. Laundry problems are discussed at some length dealing with the cleansing agents commonly used in the laundry and the principles which should govern a choice of the method best suited to individual conditions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sewing and d104iles: First Lessons for Elementary Schools This volume is intended for use in places beginning the study of sewing and textiles. It has been arranged for use in the elementary schools and does not presuppose any training in general science. It is strictly an elementary treatment of the subject. The book deals with the selection of clothing and garment-making. Garments are made, the com mercial patterns being used. The lessons in tex tiles are correlated with the lessons in garment making by studying, in the class, the materials that are being used in the laboratory. The hygiene of clothing, and the clothing budget, are discussed when the dress is the laboratory problem. Through the Home Problems, the home and school work may be correlated. Attention is called to the insertion of material for the use of the modern project method. Many teachers will' find that this makes the plan of the book more attractive and practicable._ It need not dis turb the work of the teacher who prefers the longer established ways of teaching. The author acknowledges the help given in illustrating the book by the United States Depart ment of Agriculture, The United States Bureau of Standards, Cheney Brothers, The Linen Thread Company, and Landers, Frary and Clark.
