When the authorities of the Calhoun
school decided to add story to the
Armstrong-Slater Memorial Trade
school, the student tradesmen at
tackled with enthusiasm the laborious
task of raising the heavy roof and put
ting on the second story. Then came
the tedious days devoted to finishing
the interior work. There was always
the Joy of doing successfully tasks
generally considered beyond the reach
OF tradesmen in the training.
Again the call came to do some
building which would require skill,
patience, and endurance. 1t was the
erection of a twostory brick build
Ing to be used as a social center for
the boys. Contracts were awarded
to the Trade Schools departments and
student tradesmen did the construc-
ton work. Today the building stands
completed. II is known as Clarke hall.
1t is used by the Young Mems Chris
tian association. To appreciate the
meaning of these three examples of
construction work done by the Hamp-
ton tradesmen, one must see the COM
pleted structures and realize the build
ing problems which the young negro
and Indian tradesmen met and success
fully solved.
While construction work calls for
ability to read working drawings and
follow detailed specifications. the de-
mands made by repair problems are In
many instances even more taxing To
make a repair quickly, skillfully, and
economically, requires unusual ability.
Hampton institute is indeed an indus
trial village in which there is constant
demand for men who can do good re-
pair and construction work.
Hampton aims to fit young men and
women to do we'll and in an uncom-
mon way the common tasks of life.
Students are taught to handle their
tasks like skilled workmen. They
have for their work an excellent equip
ment and they are expected and re-
plired to take the best possible care of
the schools property. They receive
financial credit for their work and they
are required TO keep a strict account
or all that they earn and spend during
the years of their training at Hampton.

The work for girls at Hampton leads
to the important occupations OF home
making and teaching When a girl en-
ters Hampton institute she has the
opportunity of receiving thorough
training in domestic science. The
girls work daily for 12 months in the
laundry and in the boarding depart
ments under the supervision OF expert
enced teachers, and carry on their
academic studies In the evening the
same as the boys who are in the work
class. The mental and moral train
ing, which the year OF combined work
and study gives, makes It one of the
most valuable years of the course.
The working day for the girls is short
er than for the boys. but a girl may
earn from Sl5 to SIS month. This
enables her to be entirely self-sup.
porting during her first year in school,
and to accumulate balance toward
defraying the expenses of the second
year. A girl in the work class needs
very little money besides her entrance
fee and first months board. This
course is advised for all new girls re-
gardless OF their ability to pay their
way In the day school.
