This article deals with the development of Home Economics classes for boys in the U.S. High Schools of the 1930's and the main causes which affected it. Through reference study of "Journal of Home Economics" and others, the following results were obtained. 1. In the 1920's most reports concerned with Home Economics for boys were founded in the belief that a subject dealing with life, the home, and home problems should at least be available to both sexes. In the 1930's there were the beginnings of the notion that homemaking in the broader sense was a joint responsibility of both men and women. 2. In the depression period, boy's courses were justified as a necessary response to the drastic changes in the social and economical phases of home life, with an increaseing number of women supplementing the family income through gainful employment, and men assuming more responsibility for the work of the home. 3. In the High Schools a new concept of Home Economics Education was appearing with concern for family life education for both boys and girls. 4. Co-educational classes were gaining some acceptance by the home economics teachers and others in the late 1930's.
