NEWARK. Del, May 1O.-Excellent
progress is icing made in the Home
Making Summer Schools started last
week in Kent county under the direc-
ton of the extension department of
the Women's College and with the CO.
operation of the United States Bureau
of Education. There are two of the
schools, one located at Rising sun
and the other at Viola. They were
both started last week, with Miss
Frances Forman. of Elsmore. as
teacher. The Rising Sun school has
session from to o'clock in the
afternoon on Mondays. Wednesdays
and Fridays and the Viola school the
same hours on Tuesdays. Thursdays
and Saturdays. The schools arc close
enough for Miss FOrman to drive from
one to the other and by this means
only one teacher is required. SEES
sions are only held every other day
in each school for the reason that it
was felt that those attending who
are mostly housewives could not
spare the time from their homes to
attend a session every day.
Miss Myrtle V. Caudell. president Of
home economies at the WOmen's Col
lege, who, with Miss Lyford, o spe-
cialist in home economies from the
United States Bureau of Education,
has general supervision of the work
in these home-making schools. re-
turned last night from a visit TO the
Viola school, She visited the Rising
Sun school last week and is much
pleased with the progress that is be-
ing made and the interest that is be-
ing taken in both of them. There are
now about eighteen women registered
in the Rising Sun school and nearly
that many at Viola The work at
Viola did not start off with the
rush that it did at Rising Sun, but
those attending are more enthused
now and this will no doubt attract
additional students.
The idea of these schools is 10 take
the art of home-making direct ia
those who are actually making the
homes in the rural sections. II is
really an experiment work and the
National Bureau of Education is
greatly interested in il and will as
sist in every way possible. These are
the first summer home-making
schools ever started in the United
States to run as long as five weeks
and for that reason Miss Caudel and
others interested are very anxious
that they prove a success. Various
matters pertaining to home-makinl
are discussed.
