J. LITA BANE, 1936-1948

" I t is my conviction that the problems confronting society today will not be solved by men alone nor by women alone but by joint effort in which one supplements the other. • . . Limiting barriers must come down and together men and women must study homes, these miniature democracies beset by most of the ills that plague the world. And as solutions are found for the problems of these basic social units, so will the larger society become healthier in mind and body. The time is at hand for home economics to write a new chapter in its history, one in which the natural and social sciences continue to ploy an important role but one in which the arts, -philosophy, history, literature and other areas of the humanities play an equal role." 1955
