The purpose of this research is to clarify the influence of Home Economics education on “pleasure of happy home around the dinner table.” Fifty-five articles on happy family get-together were extracted from the home economics textbooks published in Taisho and Showa eras (1920s to 1930s). The results of the analysis of the above articles are as follows: Many descriptions of the conditions and functions realizing the happy family get-together around the dinner table were found in the 1920s. However, they ceased to appear in the textbooks from 1929 onward and morality was increasingly emphasized instead such as the role of meal in sound family and how the housewife should be and do. It is interesting to note that the articles on “happy family get-together around the dining table” were closely related with the popularization of CHABUDAI or low collapsible dining table. The textbooks published in the war structure stressed the importance of “happy family get-together around the dinner table” as if to supplement the poor supply of food with morality. In other words, the home economics education was given on a war footing.
