MISS ELIZABETH JENKINS North Adams, lVIass. Super1'1'sor of E'.zftension Department, and Rural Df3l7l071SfI'fl1'1.07l, Schools, Teacher of Rural Education Since many Normal School graduates begin their teach- ing experience in rural communities, it was thought neces- sary to open a rural education course. The class of '27 was the first class to be instructed in this new enterprise under the leadership of Miss Jenkins. She has had a. wide experience in rural training, and in her cheerful manner, dispelled our fears concerning country schools, and helped us to realize the great opportunity awaiting us in the country. The Senior class wish lVIiss Jenkins every happiness for the future, and look forward with joy toward the visit she will make us in our rural schools in the Fall. 12 4 THE NORMALOG-UE MR. THOMAS CUMMINGS North Adams, lVIass. Teacher of Manual Training We have here a member of the faculty who is with us for the sole purpose of teaching the uses of the chisel cop ing saw, and other tools: and many have wondered why a manual training course is given girls. When we are in our rural schools, with a group of eighth grade boys on our hands, we believe that the facts Mr. Cummings has taught us concerning manual training will help to solve more than one difficult problem in discipline.
