Show SALT LAKE NEWSPAPER LAUDS II. A, C. CO-EDS The Department ot Homo Economics Econom-ics of tho Agricultural Collego of Utah is the object of special mention in a recent Issue ot the Snlt Lnko Her-nld-Hepubllcan. Many good things aro said regarding this department of tho stato Institution at Logan. Tho artlclo Is accompanied by illustrations showing show-ing n group of college co-eds just leaving leav-ing the Homo Economics building. Among other things the Herald -Republican says: "There Is a tlneo story brick building build-ing In Logan which is changing the Stato ot Utah as surely and as safety as Its Booster's club, Its now plnn for city EONernment, Its professors nnd Its politicians. And these are all great In their way. But this three story building begins wher tho beglnnlg Is good and preaches persistently n gospel gos-pel new and wise nnd stnte-snvlng." Regarding the Agricultural College girl, the Jlerald-Rcpubllcnn pays this taibute, "Tho typo of girl which finds nor way to tho stato collego at Logan is a distinct type. She is somewhat different dif-ferent from tho eastern 'co-ed' In tho samo way that tho average western girl is a triflo different from tbo av-crago av-crago eastern girl. The custom dormitory dormi-tory includes girls who are not so much Individuals as they nro ropro-sontntiyes ropro-sontntiyes of a family. A western girl in a wostern collego Is distinctly an Individual, freed from tbo artificial destralnt i which necessarily exists under eastern conditions. Hero shu Is fine nnd unrestrained but withal sho Is carefully tempered with n sort of native natural culture." Tho significance to tho Stnto ot Utah of tho school ot Homo Economics, Econom-ics, tho Herald-Kepubllcan believes to be thU: "And so from year to year tho enrollment en-rollment in tbo Homo Economics school Is Increasing, nnd from year to year larger parties of specially tinlned young women are going Into the State, and it means vastly for a state when Its mothers 'know tho laws, of nutrition, of henlth, nnd ot I sanitation; It means moro than whnt wo usually think of as philosophy and theology and politics, It Is a high form of religion." |
