Purdue University Has Plan
to Equip Women for
Home Work.
BY JULIA c. HENDERSON.

The woman who does not know how to
sew these days is to be pitied, for 1t is
/. then her portion to be dressed from tip
to toe in ready made garments, fresh
from the shelves.
If these be Of the high priced variety,
all we'll and good, but for the most part
people must content them selves with the
medium priced article which takes on a
skinny and pinched look, which, added
to present day styles, makes one look
poor indeed.
The daintiness and grace Of the hand
made article is being heralded every
where and women are eagerly grasping
the ways and means of learning dizziness
with the needle.
What is true Of sewing is true Of
housekeeping as well and young women
are realizing that it is a part of real cul-
ture and education to be alert in all that
pertains to home making.
Science in all these things is being
taught in an intensive way in many Of
the schools and colleges Of the country.
Indiana, as in all things, is to the
fore in this work and to this end an
eight weeks course Of training along
these lines is to be held at Purdue Uni
versity from Jan. 16 to March Il, at
which sessions any In0lana woman over
Is years of age and having a good com
mon school education may enter.
This will be an opportunity for many a
Dung Indiana woman to equip herself
@not only for service in her own home but
for establishing a foundation for a means
Of livelihood.
The lines Of work viii be interesting
and valuable to farm and city women
alike.
The following lines Of work viii be
given with no tuition fee to Indiana wom-
en-, with but a $40 fee charged to cover
the actual cost Of materials in the vari-
GUS laboratories
1. Meal planning and serving.
2. House planning and furnishing.
3. Designing and garment making.
4, Millinery.
8. Home nursing.
6. Care and management Of children
That there Is a constant demand for
Just such service as these courses will
furnish will no doubt stimulate numbers
Of young Indiana women to take ad-
vantage of them.

1t came to me all of a sudden this
morning as I began to emerge from that
restless, uncertain, reactionary state that
follows a period Of holiday hysteria
that I had not paid my respects to the
new city hall residents. No sooner
thought than done, and forthwith I sal
lied cityhallward, bordering on the
frailty of the life of public officials.
As I was literally blown in the door
by the strong northeaster Cor wester

shaven man with an indefinitely high
forehead breezed airily out of the entry
followed by what looked like labor

with and without collars.
"Howdy,' says he to me. Glad to
see you"
"Howdy," said I to him. "Whats the
excitement?" But he had disappeared in
the twinkling Of an eye with the mob
still trailing him, leaving me rather puz-
zled over the familiarity Of the face, but
not for long, for a fellow bystander
turned to me with an enthusiastic, Some
mayor, amt he?" and I proceeded on
my way, having decided to drop In for a
chat with Mrs. Shank.
It sounded very simple but when l
reached the vicinity of the mayors office
I found that evidently the greater part
of the city had neglected paying
their respects to the mayor and mayoress,
even as I had, until today, and were
massed like an army around the door.
Retracing my steps downward, l was
halted by a friend and comrade spirit
who with the ingenuity of the Initiated,
personally conducted me through maze
of offices, down a secret stairway, ex-

gates, raped three times on formidable

PRECEDING CHAPTERS.
When the crew of the schooner Bald
Eagle, their brains fired by an over
supply OF rum, mutinied in South Pa
citic waters, slew the captain and
first mate and heaved their bodies
into the sea, the only two sober and
respectable persons left ON board
were Richard Hunter, a man about
thirty, a passenger bound for Aus

on her way to Australia to visit her
mother

seems almost improbable that such a ma

such a slim chnd. The depth Of her
voice, the brilliancy and frmness of her

has a voice that never for one moment

steadiness.
She not only has the voice but with it
is combined her dramatic ability her de-
