Denton, Texan, February <i, 1010.
Mr. Sherwood Spottn,
Bonham, Texan.
Dear Mr. Editor: .
Of course you have read articlcn
concerning the College of induntrial
Artn and itn work, but probably not
from a ntudent’n point of view. May
1 give my friends and acquaintances
through your paper, my opinion of the
college ?
I entered school two weeks after
the second quarter had begun. My
,irnt impression was that there were
over seven hundred girls under rules
which were most appalling, but I soon
found them to be reasonable in all cir-
cumstances. As soon as I met and be-
came acquainted with the girls in nij
classes, I found them all to be thought,
ful, kind and good in every respect
Now, I have almost as much interest
in the college as 1 had in dear ol 1
E 11. S. The many courses that th"
college offers embraces every kind of
work a woman could desire to take.
1 shall not attempt to describe each
one separately in so limit) d a time.
However, 1 . hall try to tell you of the
work done in the course that the ma-
jority of the students choose, the
Household Arts course.
In this course are given only those
things which pertain to household
matters. Much stress is placed on
the planning, preparing, and serving
of meals from the dietetic and eco-
nomic standpoint. The domestic
science laboratories arc complete in
every respect and are second to none
in the State. In addition to domestic
science, domestic art is included in
this course. This embraces dress-
making, textiles, designing, needle-
work, sewing and millinery. Along
v.ith sewing and cooking we study
Zoology, English, Commercial History
and Chemistry.
A few people over the State be-
lieve that when a girl comes to the
College of Industrial Arts, she mu: t
tud.v only those things which she
could have learned at home. This is
ell a mistake, for the cooking and
si wing that a girl does here is far
fiom the kind she would learn if she
stayed at home. Those students who
wish to take a purely literary educa-
tion may take it here. It is exactly
tie same work that is given in all the
universities and colleges of the State,
and in most of the regular course;
I terary work is required.
Along with whatever course each
imw student chooses, she must devote
three periods a week to physical train
tug. Two periods are class work am!
• lie other may he devoted to tennis,
basket ball, hockey or folk dancing.
The completion of the Household
Arts course requires three years; a
fourth is necessary if a baehelo*'..
