Harrisonburg, Va. July zs.--Al-
though the first term of the sum-
mer session closed last Friday, the
campus of the Normal School at Har-
rlsonburg is anything but deserted.
One hundred regular students are
here, besides forty-eight canning club
girls and a dozen home demonstra-
ton agents--all busy as bees The
hundred are hard at work on the
professional and regular normal
courses given during this second
term, for President Burruss man.
ages to squeeze from the year twelve
school months. with about three
weeks of vacation in September, be-
sides the Christmas holiday. Julius
Caesar himself could not get more
out of the calendar. The instructors
here have habit of naming this
second term caressingly as 1.-The little
session. They feel that they are
at this time able to accomplish their
best work. as conditions are not SO
crowded. and the students can re-
celye more individual attention
The girls find attractions outside
the classrooms also, for the pears
are almost ripe enough to drop on
the grass in the school orchard and
there are plenty of apples in spite of
the efforts of the throng of $50 stu
dents during the first term to eat
them ell in the green state. The
faculty rendered reception to the
new students on Tuesday evening.
and today the school goes on a picnic
to Rawley Springs
Interest this week centers around
the canning club girls. who are here
with the county agents and State and
national workers in home demonstra-
ton. These girls are taking a ten
days course mapped out especially
for them. This includes not only
canning, preserving and Jel1y-making
but cooking, sewing. making baskets
from native materials. book cover
designing and picture-framing. with
lectures on nature study and poultry
raising. In the sewing classes each
girl cuts, fits and makes for herself
dress. The cooking course includes
the study and preparation of various
foods, and ends in dinner prepared
and served by the girls. They gave
a foretaste of this in the excellent
cinnamon buns served in the entire
boarding department at supper one
evening this week. These children
surprise and delight all listeners by
standing up in the assembly hall at
chapel period and telling with the
utmost clearness and naturalness how
they made their gardens, raised their
tomatoes, preserved their fruits and
made their jellies They are so full
Of their subject-having learned by
actual doing-that there is no room

number OF these girls won the
trip to Harrisonburg az prize for
the best work done In the canning
