from five to ten. Two large Milledge-
vile houses have been rented the
girls pay the rent and it don't cost the
state a cent. 1t comes out of their
board money, and they do not pay any
more than those who live in the regu-
lar dormitories. One of the latter, the
old governors mansion, where Geor-
gas executives lived for more than
half a century, is housing many stu
dents. Every possible bed room will

to it. Ends of halls everywhere have
been partitioned off. One girl wrote
had been denied admission, wrote:
Please let me come; I'll sleep in any
little hall end" 1t was that which
got her in; there was just one hall-end
left.
This illustrates the expedients which
have been adopted by President M. M.
Parks for making the institution do it's
utmost, and even at that his hardest
work has been in denying the many ap-
peals for damission, some of which are
deeply pathetic.
If one goes through the Georgia Nor
NAL and Industrial college and gets
even brief insight into the work it is
doing, it is easy to see the reason for
this popularity of the institution and to
understand wry the girls who know

by actually teaching pupils from Mil
ledgeville mothers, who are glad to
send their children to them. They are
taught the principles of agriculture
the Georgia Normal was among the
first institutions of the state to add
agriculture to the curriculum. Every
girl in the school has to cultivate
either vegetable or flower bed while
she is here. Tennis courts, basket ball
courts and gymnasiums are popular
places with the girls every day.
A volume could be written about
what is being done for Georgia girls
at the Georgia Normal, but the inter
esting thing about is that so many of
them are getting this sort of an edu-
cation at an extraordinarily low cost.
1t costs the state about $75 year to
eucate each student; this is less than
one-half, Or even less than one-third
the cost in the average institution

WONDERFUL STRIDES MADE BY G.N&LC
IN TAKING CARE OF STUDENTS WHO DESIRE
TO ENTER But MANY ARE TljRNFD AWAY
EUey Possible Means Used Accommodate The
With All Lou oao of Opech School r., Inadequate

MILLEDGEVILLE, Ga, Oct. 30,-If
all the Georgia girls who have ap-
piled for admission to the Gergia Nor
nal and Industrial College in the last
ten years, could have been admitted,
it would have educated fully 5000 more
than it has done within that period.
This is a rather remarkable state
ment, but it is absolutely true. More
Georgia girls were actually turned
awav from this institution this fall
than are enrolled in its present college
classes. With 853 students attending
daily, 67S of them are taking the reg
uIar college course, while more than
700 were turned away because it was
impossible to find the room for the
proverbial one more.
This condition long since made it
imperative for the officials of the
Georgia Normal to deny admission to
all applicants from other states and
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1915-10-31

this kind. At many of the the cost of
5000 a year per student and often
more.
But the Georgia Normal and Indus
trial college graduates all over the
state are living testimony to the fact
that in spite of economy, the institu-
toin is one of the most efficien in he
country. A single fact will illustrate
il. 1t was one of the first institutions
TO adopt and develop the domestic sci
eLce department and the teaching OF
domestic economy. Now It's graduates
are in demand, often at splendid sala-
ries, by other educational institution
which are conducting similar de-
partments.
1t is the deep regret of the trustees
and officers of the college that they
have ever to turn away one girl. They
are hoping for the day when. there will
be room for all of them.

great big home, and they feel that way
about it. Everyone of them likes ev-
erything about it, and will tell you so,
They go home and tell their friends
about it, and the result is the college
has been overwhelmed with applica-
tons for admission it could not grant,
because there is no more room
Why do the girls like it? There are
several reasons besides its being home
lik One of II. ese is the kind of educa-
ton it offers. 1t is the education of ap-
piled science There is plenty of the
literary and the other ordinary

branches, such as English, mathemat-
les and the like, but one of the depart
ments the girls like most is that Of
domestic science, where they learn
both the theory and practice of every
thing girl ought to know about the
house. 1t isn't simply a question of
learning to cook a meal, but how to
cook a good and wholesome meal at a
particular cost. 1t is not just ques-
tion of learning to sew, but how to do
it scientifically, artistically and eco-
nomically.
These are Only few crude illustra-
tons of the practical things the girls
are taught. They are taught to teach

=! least 140 of the 1872 counties. They
represent every section of the state
from the mountains to the seaboard.
and from the Chattahoochee to the Sa-

about the story is how CTS girls have
