Excerpt from Everyday Chemistry The small high school which cannot afford expensive equipment has been constantly in mind during the prepara tion of this text. The exercises call for no complicated apparatus; most of the experiments may be performed by means of simme homemade devices, or even in many cases by the use of kitchen utensils. No one group of pupils should be required to use all the material in this book, since a wide range of topics has been treated in order to meet the varying needs of boys and girls. After the first thirty-five chapters have been completed the boys and girls may be separated and allowed to study those chapters which are of particular interest to each group. This book is especially suitable for use in the vocational courses in agriculture and home economics which are being introduced in many high schools.
