CANNING CLUB WORK AT
WOMANiS COLLEGE.

The following notice of the Cam
ming club work of the young women of
the Female College at Tallahassee will
be of interest to those interested not
only in the students at the college but
the extension of the canning industry
in this state:
Miss Agnes Harris is in charge of
the canning club work, associated on
like standing with j. ]. Vernon, dean
of the College of Agriculture of the
University Ill Game lie, wro has di-
reCtion Of the work of the corn club.
They now have work going on in thir-
teen counties under the immediate di-
rectorship of local instructors who
have received their training at the
university and the college respective
ly. In some instances these local in
structors are paid by thf county COM
missioners; in others by farmers in
stitutes or women's clubs. In every
instance he work is going forward
with satisfactory results. The can
ming outfit used costs only SIS, and
it takes but short time to teach any
girl how to use one Miss Harris has
just returned from a trip over her
demonstration TO which the public is
invited. for Miss Harris says it is not
the purpose to teach girls only, but
any one who wishes to learn.
1t is extension work In it's best
sense. The local clubs keep in touch
instruction by mail as may be required
from time to time. The usual appro-
priation made by the county is 500
and the extension fund supplies the
balance This has proved sufficient
for q beginning. but it is believed that
as the movement grows that the re-
quirements will be greater in pro-
portion to the good accomplished.
Miss Stella has direction of the col
lege work under Miss Harris, for the
latter Is absent goodly part of the
time engaged in the business OF vista
ton and working for the further de-
velopment of the movement. 1t is a
step leading to the establishment of
such work in all the schools of the
state.
The beautiful display of needle work
done by the students called forth ex-
pressions of wonder from all. The
work CT the department spoke for it
self on this occasion. The students

home. In some cases they had left to
help in homework, while a few had
left at a time OF temporary stress and
then had not returned to school. Four
girls had changed places with the
mother who worked in a corset fac
tory, laundry, or some such place,
while the girl whose wage earning
power was small, kept house for the
mother of the children.
Curious differences as to what the
parents thought they could afford were
discovered: 1.-THE mother of family
of children, living in apparently di-
rest poverty, would have been glad
to have sacrificed and pinched still
further to have had her daughter stay
in school longer, if she would. The
mother of another family of 6, living
in a comfortable apartment house,
with hardwood floors, piano and other
luxurieS, said her daughter wished
to stay in school longer, but the bur-
den of supporting the family was too
heavy for the father to bear alone;
SO the girl was taken out of school
to go to work. A visit to a Swedish
family revealed a carpenter and his
wife, a washerwoman, who had just
built and owned new three story
apartment house. Yet the 15-year- old
daughter with a seventh grade educa-
ton had been sent to work in a paper
goods factory at 81 week. THE
question, Why did you leave SCHOOL,"
was put to some 336 more mature
workers in the corset trade. Ninety
one per cent of these women had left
school between the ages of Is to 16,
and fully so per cent because of their
dislike of school or because they
wanted to go to work. OF IA workers
in a clothing factory S5 per cent had
left school between the ages of Is
and 16, % per cent of their own Volt
ton.
In the opinion of the authors of the
bulletin, conditions such as were found
in Worcester emphasize the impera-
tive need for special training of
practical sort for girls between the
ages of Is and Is. In the main the
children left school simply because
they dislike the school work. Not get
ting the kind of training they might
have liked and would have profited by,
they bIindly joined the army of shift
ing, inefficient, disconnected girls that
go from one monotonous factory job to
another, and, because of their lack Of
training, rarely rise above the class of
low-paid unskilled workers.

WHY GIRLS
LEAVE SCHOOL

The idea that children leave school
TO go to work, because their parents
need the money, is vigorously COM
batted in a bulletin just issued by the
United States Bureau of Education.
The authors of the bulletin have made
careful study of trade and labor
conditions among girls in Worcester,
ment of trade school for girls. They
find that from one-half to three
fourths of the girls at work in the
factories could have had further
schooling if they had wanted to or If
their parents had cared to insist upon
it.
The survey showed that the num-
Der of girls between IA and 16 years
of age who leave school is constantly
increasing. During the past five years
many more girls between those ages
accounted for by decrease in popula-
ton. Only about II per cent of them
left in the sixth and seventh grades.
Why did the girl leave school?
Various reasons were assigned by the
girls themselves. Some thirty girls
said they did not like school, could
not get along with the teacher" were
not promoted; or wanted to go to
work. Two were working to help pay
for piano. One of these was cash
girl of IA years who had left the
ninth grade to go to work in de-
partment store at 50, later $3.50 per
week. Another was a girl of Is from
the eighth grade, who went to work
in a corset factory for 81 and rose to
1892. Still another girl was taking
music lessons and contributing to the
payment on the piano.
Twenty-seven girls were found at
