New Canadian Encyclopedia Article: Adelaide Hoodless

My newest article in the Historica Canada Canadian Encyclopedia is about Adelaide Sophia Hoodless, nee Hunter, educator and author (born 27 February 1858 in St. George, Ontario; died 26 February 1910 in Toronto, Ontario). Hoodless helped found the Women’s Institute, the Victorian Order of Nurses and the National Council of Women in Canada. A champion of the domestic science movement, she established the first training school for domestic science teachers in Canada and wrote the first Canadian domestic science textbook.
