The Girl in the Rural Family

This book represents a realistic picture of the girls in families of different rural occupations in the South. Based on the author's experience with over two thousand out-of-school girls, it explains their problems, describing the homes and daily routine of living that comprised their background, and suggests programs to interest them in the difficult period between leaving school and having homes of their own. Originally published in 1935.
