The skill problem of the Home
Economics classes was completed
last week, and the results are being
displayed all this week in one win
dow of the Community Building. The
average score for the freshman class
was one hour and five minutes less
than the average made in the State
last year. The average time for the
sophomore class was slightly longer
than the average time required in
State last year. However, the girls
are consoling themselves upon the
fact that this was due to the change
in prevailing styles for this season.
We must agree with them that it
does require more skill and time to
make a frock with frills and flares
rather than the more simple styles
of last year.
The results of the skill problem
were as follows:
Dress made in shortest time, Myr-
tie Dukes.
Dress receiving highest score, 81
per cent, Helen Siler.
Slip made in shortest time, 2 hours
and 5 minutes, Kathryn Tucker.
Slip receiving highest score, SO per
cent, Florence Zott.
The White Adult Education Cen
ters Of Rural Delaware are conduct
ed by the Department of Public In
struction as a part of the public

they have endeavored to provide in
struction that would meet the desire
of the men and women of the towns
and rural communities of Delaware
for cultural, civic and economic de-
velopment. During the 1880 term,
they have been conducted in seven
districts of Rural New Castle coun-
ty, eight districts Of Kent county
and fifteen districts of Sussex coun-
ty. The enrolment number 1903.
This is an increase of 636 over that
of 1929.
