Appendix (made up of fifteen sections)
An interesting detail can be noted in the embossing at the top right portion of the page. The wording California State Normal School (now San Jose State University) can be made out. This was a place that Helen visited in one of her trips to California. The original building of the Normal School was badly damaged in the 1906 earthquake, so this edition would have survived this catastrophic event. Also, since there is no inscription in the book by the author it probably was not presented by her to the school. However, perhaps her visit might have inspired the purchase of the book.
