Hollis, state supervisor of Home Eco
North Dakota Agricultural
College, and supervisor Of Smith
Hughes work in North Dakota as re-

Mrs. Hollis report says that study
of the 1920 census report showed 144,-
l77O women in North Dakota over 81
years Of age and more than 80 per
cent of this number were home-mak-
ers. In 1920 there were $4,000 girls
of high school age in North Dakota
and just 5000 in high school, leaving
16, 100 girls of high school age not
