The answer is an emphatic, “Yes.” "For example, how many city girls would get dp at 4.30 every morning, milk cow-; and do other chores, pre- pare breakfast, wash the dishes and then walk through deep snow drifts almost four miles to attend an educa- tional course ? The answer would likely be “None.” However, that is what several country girls are doing this winter. Not only the girls arc ! making sacrifices to attend these courses scattered through Ontario but their mothers are too. In homes on both hack and fron t concessions, mothers; are doing extra work in the home in order that, their daughters may get a worth while education to better fit them to take charge of homes of their own some day when the right, young man comes along, or to prepare them for a career that may be selfisnpportlkig. In other words, both mothers and daughters are ap- preciating these courses, put on and sponsored free of charge by the W. I. Branch Ontario Dept, of Agricul- ture. Miss Florence P. En die of the Wo- men’s Institute 'Branch, Toronto, has just returned from a, visit to a num- ber of these courses of which there are 38 this winter. They proved to be an inspiration. Ait W.i-ikerton she saw a spick and span kitchen in the town hall with 34 girls deep in a discussion of farm water supplies and ways and means of having 'these farm comforts made available. Following a demonstration by in- structor tin cleaning a chicken in latest streams lined manner, a. group of girls prepared and served a chicken dinner while another group cleaned silver. “This butter dish of grandmother’s hasn’t been cleaned in sixty years” laughed one girl as she handed Mi* Ko die the shining silver dish for in- soection. “Wonit granny be sur- prised when she sees, it ?” At \VIngham, plans were being maiie for the closing, banquet when Miss Badie arrived. Dresses made in class were being scored by the supervisors; girls were being taught the mysteries of an attractive appear- a nice by being well-dressed and well groomed and observing good health and food habits. A demonstration of sandwich making under the critical eye of the loçal W. I. and table set- ting service, were also features of Miss Eadie’s visit to XVingham. At, Stratford the course was being held at the Normal School. Some 20 girls were getting a real college course and will go back home with many new, worthwhile ideas. Stu- dents were taking full advantage of the school library, and were also busy preparing a ,pageant .of “costumes through the ages.” One girl had a gown 75 years old, while another, with many gig'gflies, showed. an even- ing dress of the 1926 vintage. “ The girls and instructors' are most enthusiastic” said Miss Karl to. “They are passing on their' enthus- iasm in the homes. This makes for better farm homes and rural living in general. It gives one a wonderful feeling of satisfaction to "Visit these courses and see how interested the girls are in helping themselves to become more proficient in doing their Simple everyday tasks, solving their NEWCASTLE Miss Ethdl Lockhart visited Tor- onto. on Saturday last.
