ing for a number Of years. The course
was formerly too short to place tho

standard.
Graduates Of the normal department
are now entitled to four years pro
visional certificate without examina-
ton, and after twenty-four months Of
successful teaching they are entitled
to life certificate good in thiru-nve
states.
Now that the state department Of
public instruction has given this do
partment full recognition az one Of the
states authorized institutions for train
ing teachers, the legislature Of Ohio
has determined to properly equip the
normal and industrial department for
its work.
The legislature, which recently ad-
journed its session, made liberal appro-
priations for this department Of work
at Wilberforce. There win be erected
shops, a building, a gymnasium, water
system, hospital and q recitation build

make Wilberforce one Of the best
equipped plants among the institutions
for Negro youths.
In the past i've years the normal
and vocational work at Wilberforce

f6r sports. They are made In bright
yellow, green. blue and pink and also

frocks are no more than little rufies,
somstimes Of tulle edged with beads

wear wolfe and etamine In heavy.
coarse weave are to be featured. These
are both desirable fabrics, for they
have an element Of durability that
makes them economical.
Silk jersey suits are worn for sports.

usually a sash or scarf to match, and
often jaunty little cap, made with
point on each side, one ending In tas.
sci, the other fastened down with a
SILK covered button.
.Lacings appear In some Of the new
frocks and blouses. Sleeves are some
times laced from the elbow to the

the elbow. Lacings appear down the
front Of blouses and at the collar. The
lacings are contrasting color usually.

gaining Id fashion. Made In pink and
blue and pale yellow and white silk.
