Book Description
Excerpt from Handicraft for Handy Girls: Practical Plans for Work and Play IT is a mistaken idea that girls cannot drive a nail straight. I have seen a girl drive home a nail as expertly as any mechanic can, and the success with which girls are competing with boys in some of our manual-training schools is proof enough that with practical application and proper guidance any girl can become efficient in wood-working. The main reason for a girl's not succeeding in driving nails straight is lack of confidence, the result of having failed in her first attempts and, possibly, having pounded her fingers. Just as long as this distrust of one's self exists will the nails drive crooked, bend over, and fingers be mashed. The difficulty will be entirely eliminated if these simple directions are followed.
