One Week School in Home

A five days course of lectures and
laboratory work in home economics,
covering five divisions of the subject is
offered for the first time this year in the
home economics department of the
College of Agriculture of the Universe
ty Of Wisconsin in response to an ur-
gent demand for this kind of instruction
for women who are unable to spend a
longer period at the university. The
five divisions offered are: CD principles
of cooking; CD methods of preparing
foods; |3) sewing; ca textiles; and (5O
applied design. A woman will be al
lowed to elect one of the courses on
cooking and one of the shorter courses
in textiles or design, but one person
would not have time to pursue all of
the courses at one time.
This course goes into greater detail
than the wOmen's course in home econ
omics, which consists largely of lectures
and demonstrations. In the one week
school each student will do cooking in
the laboratory under the direction Of
the instructor during daily periods from
to 10 a. m. and 1 80 to 3 80 p. m. In
the cooking courses, various food mater
ials such as meats, soups, bread, cake,
ETC., will be prepared and cooked, while
in the course in sewing detailed in
struction in making and using patterns,
cutting garments, sewing and finishing
will be worked out upon actual mater
ials In the course in textiles, tests for
purity of cloth, dyes and the removal of
stains from fabrics will be shown, while
in the course in applied design, schemes
of decoration, stencils, designs for rugs,
ETC., will be worked out in the labora-
tory.
A laboratory fee of one dollar per
student will be charged and registra
tons will be made in the order that
they are received by the home econo-
mics department. The laboratory space
is very limited and only those who ap-
ply in advance can be accommodated.
Materials for laboratory work can be
secured in Madison. Detailed programs
are being distributed by Prof. Abbey l..

speech a large and daring purpose.
Gregg sneered. Perhaps you intend
to run for congress on that line of

Redfield's voice was placid. AT any

that will change this state from the
sparsely settled battle-ground of a lot
of mounted hoboes to a state with an
honorable place among the other COM
monwealths. If this be treason make

The table was empty now, and they
were standing in comparative isola-
ton. looking into each others eyes in
silence. At last she murmured:
you've helped me. I'm going to stay
a little while anyway and do what 1
can"
'1'm sorry l can't be Of actual serv-
ice, but am soldier with work to
do. Even if 1 were here l could not
help you as regards the townspeople.
They all hate me quite cordially, but
Redfield, and especially Mrs. Redfeld,
can be Of greater aid and comfort.
He's quite often here, and when you
are lonely and discouraged let him take
you up to Elk Lodge"
He extended his hand, and as she
took it he thrilled to the soft strength
of it. "Till next time," he said, good
luck"

Tuberculosis Day on April 80.

April 80 has been set aside this year
as Tuberculosis Day. and will be
observed in 100000 churches in the
country in a manner similar to that of
tuberculosis Sunday, in 1910, when
over 10000 sermons were preached on
the prevention of consumption. In this
first official announcement of the occa
sion made by the National Association
for the Study and Prevention of Tuber-
culosis the leaders of the movement
state that they hope to enlist all of the
80 900, 900 church members in the
country.
The National Association is planning
to gather statistics from thousands of
ministers, showing how serious prob
lem tuberculosis is to every church.

Virginia was indeed greatly pleased
and pleasantly excited by this mes
sage, for she had heard much of Mrs.
Redield's exclusiveness and also of
the splendor Of her establishment
She hurried away to dress with such
flutter Of joyous anticipation that Red
field felt quite repaid for the pressure
he had put upon his wife to induce
her to write that note. 'You may
leave Lie Wetherford out of the

is nothing of her discernible in the
girl. Virginia is lady. l don't know
where she got it, but she's a gentle
woman by nature
1t was hot and still in town, but no
sooner was the car in motion than
both heat and dust were forgotten.
Redfeld's machine was not large, and.
as he was content to go at moderate
speed, conversation was possible.
He was of that sunny, optimistic.
ever youthful nature which finds de-
light in human companionship under
any conditions whatsoever. He accept
ed this girl for what she seemed-a
fresh, unspoiled child. He saw moth
ing cheap or commonplace in her and
was not disposed to impose any of her
fathers wild doings upon her calen-
dar. He had his misgivings as to her
future. That was the main reason why

She experienced a pang of regret
and could not help showing it little.
"Your talk helped me-" she said I've
decided to stay and be of use to my

Redfeld overheard this and turned
toward her.

be sorry for it. I don't want to know

son carrying a lantern.
She directed operations by the Ian

A DOUBLE WEDDING

Ou 6feHiuS 49, y

well. All OF these young people
were hbarii III Or rear Scotland and
here they have grown to young
manhood and womanhood. 1t is
very fitting therefore that they
should unite in the bonds of we'd
lock to help, honor and comfort
one another thru life.
At eight O'Clock in the presence
of only the immediate relatives
and one or two special friends
these young people took the VOWS
that united them in the holy bonds
of wedlock. Mr.. Vellek and Miss
Stevenson were the first to take
the VOWS, Mr.. Stevenson and Miss
Bardwell acting as best man and
lady. Mr.. and Mrs. Vellek then
stepped back and to the side, act
ing as best man and lady for Mr.
Stevenson and Miss Bardwell.
Rev. Wilcox officiated. After the
close of the service congratulations
and good wishes we're bestowed up
on the happy young people. Fol
towing this a bountifui and deli
cious wedding supper was served
by the sisters of the brides.
Miss Stevenson was dressed in
white marquissette over white silk,
Miss Bardwell in dark blue Fou-
lard silk. Both OF the young ladies
were very sweet and charming and
the gentle excitement of the even
ing added its share to the beaute-
Gus effects. The gentlemen wore
he conventional black.
Mr.. Vellek is one of Scotland's
young business men. For some
time he has had charge of the
office of the Omaha Cold Storage
Co.. in this place. Mr.. Stevenson
had been an assistant in the Office
of the Goodridge-Call Lbr. &c. in

tracts. They are both to be con-
s,ratulated on their choice of as

their hosts of friends in wishing
these young people the very best
things in life. May their way be
as bright and prosperous and full
of Joy as all is present prospects
seems to indicate.
Mr.. and Mrs. Vellek will soon
