HAVE SCHOOL FOR BRIDES
English institution That Really Has .
Great Deal to Be Said In
Its Favor.

A school for brides is the latest Eng
fish educational enterprise and as the
brides are taught domestic economy
and housewifery there ought to be re-
Joicing In that country Of unskilled
cooks and incompetent housekeepers.
The new school calls itself the Col
lege of Housecraft, and though 1t Is
founded in the hope that newly mar
ried young women and girls about to
enter matrimony will patronize 1t, 1t
is open to other women. At present
besides prospective brides there are
ordinary middle class girls who have
been well educated and are trained in
sports and accomplishments but are
lacking in rudimentary knowledge of
home making. In many. cases they are
planning to go to the colonies or to
take some position In domestic service
after they have gained knowledge of
housewifery.
The college is arranged like a reg
ular house and run without any serv-
ants. The pupils do all the work. Six
months is the full course, but shorter
terms are arranged as in the case of
the society women, while some stu
dents are allowed to come as day
workers or can attend special classes.
The students wear a plain uniform
of brown linen with mob cap and
linen apron In the morning and of
brown cashmere with muslin cap and
ron in the afternoon. They sleep
little curtained cubicles. but those
who wish it can have separate bed

Bennington shrugged his shoulders
The warning may give you time

Underwood's dark eyes flashed with
suppressed wrath. as he retorted:
