The class meets four times a week, begin ning on Tuesday and continuing thru Friday. Prof. Josiah Morse will cooperate with Miss Laing. He delivered the first two lec tures to the class. The object of the course is to train workers to look after the families of soldiers and sailors in the camps and the trenches. The man who goes into the army very frequently leaves a family totally dependent on him for sup port, and who also has been ac customed to leave to him solution of most of the problems of every day life. The wife is suddenly confronted with such problems as insurance, rents, repairs on property and a number of similiar duties requiring the exercise of trained business judgment. She very often will have to make the household budget meet a very limited income and, not being accustomed to dealing with such problems, she may find it difli cult to decide them in the most economical malner. In such situations the home service work er will step in and tactfully and pleasantly offer advice. In preparing to accomplish such work, Miss Laing emphasizes that much practical work must be done. Several hours a day must be devoted to visiting families of all types, recreational institu tions, and to the solution of the numerous problems that come before the Associated Charities in a day. Lectures on various sociological problems will be heard from time to time. The wide facilities of the university are at the disposal of the director and the students and Dr. Morse thinks the course will prove very practical. The university is also intend ing to organize a course in First Aid w,ork, including lessons i n elemen talI hygiene, first aid, care af sick and surgical dressings.
