The use of a state course of study." said Miss Moran, "has done much to ward the standardisation of the work all over the slate. The suggested course, issued in temporary form, was used in all Hie vocutionnl schools and iptlte generally In the other institu tions. A year's trial has proven the necessity of ueh a course. The work is planned for the elgthtb and ninth grades and is parallelled in the eighth by general science and in the ninth by biology. The almost state wide adoption of these sciences in the first two years of high school has been a great boon to the home economics work. ," second factor that has done much for the betterment of home economics is the ninterinl improveueut that has lieen made in the equipment of the various schools. Next year, we are planning further improvements in this direction. The division of vocational education has issued a list of equip ment required in all state-paid schols. This list includes a minimum and n standard reipiireinent: Many schools have measured up to this. A pre scribed reference library to be kepi In the home economics department is a part of the requirement.
