In an obituary for Ella Hruschka it says:

"The teacher Miss Ella Hruschka from Brno has taken on the task of giving the reader a clear picture of the women's movement by discussing the sphere of activity of women on the various levels of professions and informing the reader that the women's movement is not Specter of terror, but only the steady progress in the field of women, which necessarily arises by itself. […] After the impetus is given, the area of ​​the same expands more and more, all the more since, as the author shows, the important beginnings have been made for centuries and will finally unite to form a beautiful circle. As proof that the consistently solid, industrious work of the author deserves an honorable place in every women's library, we are also placing a small part of it at the top of today's issue. "
