Previous to this time, County Secretaries, though they had largely been college graduates, were without the technical train- ing except that which they gained through the hard knocks of experience after going on the field and through the instruction of the State Secretary for County VVork, and the training they afterwards gained from attendance at the Summer Schools. A standard course, which could be given the men before they entered upon the work, was needed, and this led the Trustees and Fac- ulty, in co-operation with the County Work Department of the International Committee, to institute such a course here. Mr. Walter J. Campbell was secured in June, 1914, to take charge of this department as Professor of Rural Economics, Rural Sociology, and Rural Association Methods. Mr. Campbell comes to us from the State Secretaryship of County Work in Pennsyl- vania and in addition to this, he has had a long experience of teach- ing Rural Methods at Silver Bay. His knowledge of the Rural Situation as regards the Young lVlen's Christian Association and his insight into the Rural Problem generally lit him admirably for the work he has been called upon to undertake. About twenty men have enrolled in courses in this depart- ment. This number will undoubtedly grow and will, in a.ll prob- ability, be augmented by the addition of a number of college and II

The Massasolr board feels that this book would have been incom- plete without the work of Montagu Modder of the class of 1916, who has so gener- ously given of his time and talents. We take this op- portunity of ex- !! pressing our ap- preciation of his kindness in help- ing to make the book a success, il' such it be. He has worked long and faithfully to see that the artistic side was not lacking and has put his Whole self into his productions with the result you see through- out this book.

The advantage of having men of pre- vious large educational opportunities, in Springheld College, is obvious. An interesting feature of this new department is the combi- nation of courses with the Massachusetts Agricultural College at Amherst. Ten weeks of the Junior year will be spent in Am- herst, taking Short Courses in Agriculture and kindred subjects, together with a large number of courses in the Rural Social Sci- ences under such men as President Butterfield and Professor Cance. This is a particularly advantageous arrangement because it gives the men recourse to certainbranches that it would be impossible for the Springfield College to giveg courses which are in hearty sympathy with those given in the Rural Department. lt also affords the men a different point of view because of their attend- ance at another institution, even for so short a space of time. It is to be hoped that at some not far distant date this course at Am- herst will cover a full College year. This will probably not be the case until the course in Springfield has been lengthened to four years. The addition of a new Literary Society to the number already in this College has been the outgrowth of the addition of this new department. The Weidelisall Society is not limited in its mem- bership to County Men. lts membership is made up of stu- dents from all departments of the College who are interested in the discussion of rural subjects, for it is the aim of this Society to conhne its work to these subjects as much as possible. The men have been most favorably placed as regard their Normal Practice through the efforts of Mr. Campbell and Mr. D. C. Drew, State Secretary for County Work in Massachusetts and Rhode lsland. A number are engaged in Boys' Club work in the village and rural churches, others have developed the social work in outlying communities on a strictly County basisg i.e., having all the activities in charge of local leadership. A number of rural surveys have been made and the unusual opportunity has been given to a limited number of men to share in the executive work of the Franklin County Young lVlcn's Christian Associa- tion. VVeek-end deputations to villages in the vicinity of Spring- held have been another feature of the facilities afforded for Nor- mal Practice, which is so essential a part of a student's training. 12. he . .
