It aims to show that whatever the condition of a family, whether large or small, in city or country, the successful expenditure of money to supply the family with needed comforts' depends vastly more upon brains than upon dollars. The housekeeper should learn to think in percentages. One cent less on a ten- cent article seems a trivial saving, yet it it is ten per cent-ten dollars on the hun- dred. There will be a difference in money paid of ten to twenty per cent between care- less' and careful purchases. The customer who knows receives the best of goods and ot service. Ninety-nine out of every hundred costumes are spoiled by lack ot simlJliC- ity. Being well dressed often means knowing what to leave off. In hand sewing as well as in machine made garments, dresses, suits' and evening dresses, we are proving the beauty of a simple design beautifully executed. Every garment when handed in must be accompanied by an itemized account of materials and their cost. Suitability, cost and wearing quality of materials are con- sidered and samples submitted to the teacher before material is purchased. The first Year girls are required to make collections of cotton, linen, silk and wool with prices and widths, and use of each. They are also planning their ideal kitchen With pictures of various articles of furniture and the co-st of each. As a final test of her ability dur- ing the spring term each girl in the second year cooking class is required to select. prepare and serve a well balanced luncheon to six guests. The following menu is a sample of what these girls have been able to serve for twenty-five cents: Pimiento Bisque 'Crontons Chicken Croquettes Currant Jelll' Mashed Potatoes String Beans' Baked Macaroni and Cheese Parker House Rolls Butter Balls Pear Salad Cheese Balls Saltines Lemon Sherbet Snow Cakes Candied Orange Peel Coffee Besides these class exercises' help has been given in all large society functions. One banquet for gxty-five was planned and executed principally by two girls from this class, first year gQls acting as vvaitresses. A stitch in time saves nine and the life of an article ot clothing may be prolonged by good care. This means more money to spend on the higher life when one's income is limited. So our work in Home Economics embraces care and repair of clothing, dry cleaning and laundering. Millinery, home nursing, saitation and dietetics complete our course of study. While we do not expect to turn out trained nurses or dietitians we do believe that these courses will be of great help in giving first aid, caring for the sick and following the cloctor's directions. Our enrollment is very encouraging and best of all, a large per cent of the girls will elect a second year's work, We believe the time is fast HD- proaching when every girl will consider a course in Heine Economics an absolute necessity. 130

We could not help them or if we could, We didn't do it always. The crimes, the sorrows, pains and faults, As you see are past and doneg That was the work of yesterday, For today has just begun. Are we Watching today our word and deed? No! There's a slip, ia slide, We'll cheer up, We may do better yet, Anyway, we have tried. Do unto others--the golden rule-' As you would have theni do unto you, And if you come out right, in the end, The end will come right for you. But what can we say of tomorrow? That page is yet white and olearg Let us do the right and trust in God, So we may have no fear. Then We may say of toniorrow. For toniorrow will be today, That we're well content, 'twas 21 Then we'1l call it yesterday day well spent, 131
