with a general demand from school
patrons that this course be taught,
and much interest is aroused among

keynote of this department.
In view of the prevailing industrial
depression, the board members are
seriously considering the advisability
of maintaining in connection with the
home econ, mics department sys-

of such a service would of course be
derived from collections among the
business institutions and the more
