Professor W. L. Thomas, professor of

cago
Industry is the spirit of Tuskgee
industry and discipline are made a
habit. The choice of some 40 trades
are offered young men and young
women. Tuskegee graduates are
earning from $50 to $50 and 800 per
month as academic teachers, farm
managers, steam and electrical en-
gineers, tailors, teachers of domestic
science, nurses-in fact, the demand
for men and women trained in all the
trades at Tuskegee is far beyond the
supply.
The academic work is vital and
real; it is close to realities. The
school seeks soundness and efficien-
cy; the academic and industrial work
are closely correlated.
The spiritual work of the school
is strong. It ranks fifth in the United
