Through My Window Presents
The Legacy Collection
The Spirit of Womanhood
expressed in the designs
and personalities of our
Bear Collection.
Each Bear is a personal
representation of a
Canadian Heroine
ADELAIDE HOODLESS
( 1857 - 1910 )
When Adelaide's baby son died
from drinking contaminated milk,
she dedicated her life to teaching
girls and women the complicated
science of child care and home management.
Her idea for a practical educational
self help association for rural women
became reality in the form of
Womens Institutes
Adelaide who died at the age of 52
founded YWCA , The National Council of Women,
The Victorian Order of Nurses
and The Women's Institutes
Through my Window is proud to include
Adelaide Hoodless
as part of the Legacy Collection
Mrs Hoodless often said
" Educate a boy and you educate a man,
Educate a girl and you educate a family"
