So Predicts Professor Holden,
OF Ames, Who Heads the
Ames Instructors
CONCENTRATING EFFORTS HERE
Corps Of Workers From State College
Will Not Be Divided in Marshall
town, and Holden Expects Big
Things = Complete Program Of Do
mestic Science Work.

! college, AmeS, who heads the short
course work Of the college that is be-
ing done in Iowa, predicts that the Sec
ond annual meeting of the Central
Iowa Short Course Association, which
is to be held in this city next week,
will prove to be the biggest in Iowa
during the entire season. Mr.. Holden
is very optimistic over the Marshall
town outlook, and expects big things
here.
The entire force of short course
workers provided by the state coll
lege will be concentrated in MARSHALL
town. In other places there have been
two short courses in progress at the
same time; hence the force was neces-
sarily divided. In Marshalltown all
the workers will be present, and every
thing possible will be done to make
the Marshalltown meeting the most
successful, from every standpoint, held
! in Iowa.
Where Others Have Failed.
i
! ing the above opinions, called tho at
tention Of the local officers to a point
in which other Iowa short course man
ayers have failed this year. Mr.. Hold
en- says that too much reliance has
been placed in the success of last year,
and too much dependence on the benz
efits to be derived from last years
advertising. The meetings of this year
in other places have not been adver-
tised as they should, and as a result
the attendance has shown falling Oft.
Mr.. Holden is a believer in advertising,
and keeping everlastingly at it Just
because the course was success last
year is no reason why there should be
any cessation Of the use of printers
ink.
