The materials in this folder are various writings and essays penned by Susan L. Hendrick on the nature of the body, its relation to health and God, and the theories animating the Hendrick Institute's pedagogy of physiological knowledge. There are also discussions of various new exercise regimens and equipment. Throughout the manuscripts, these texts are often on the same pages as various lists of names of parents, children, and staff.

These manuscripts consist of drafts and revisions to the language Susan L. Hendrick and the Hendrick Institute used for their promotional materials and to detail the school's philosophy to interested parents. The issues range from the approach to teaching "delicate children" to the location of the Institute and courses of study available. Throughout, these texts are often on the same pages as various lists of names, including parents, children, and staff.

The sheets in this folder pertain more to the practical aspects of the Hendrick Insitute and the work and practice of teaching students. In addition to various lists of names just as in other folders of material, there are handwriting and calligraphy exercises, brainteasers, riddles, and an attendance sheet.
