Six WEEKS COURSES 



In addition to the above regular courses in vocational en- 

 gineering, six weeks short courses will open, dealing with 

 the following subjects: Tractors, automobiles, telegraphy 

 and telephony. 



COMBINED AGRICULTURE AND HOME ECONOMICS 



This course, also opening November 12, is intended for 

 young women who are looking forward to operating or man- 

 aging farms, to teaching agriculture and home economics 

 in rural, grade and non-accredited high schools, or acting 

 as club leaders and demonstrators. The studies taken will 

 be chosen from the lists* given under agriculture and home 

 economics. 



THE TIMES DEMAND MORE EDUCATED MEN AND 

 WOMEN 



IN offering such a special winter term for the first time 

 in Iowa, Iowa State College believes that it is offering an 

 unusual opportunity to Iowa young men and women. It 

 feels that the times demand that every possible encourage- 

 ment be given to those who want to go further with their 

 education. 



Young men and women who can take advantage of this 

 new opportunity may feel assured that in getting additional 

 education they are fulfilling a patriotic duty. It is the 

 opinion of men and women of judgment and foresight, 

 from President Wilson on down, that the war is creating 

 in this country a shortage of men and women educated for 

 leadership, just as it has done in the countries of Europe. 

 Particularly in the fields of agriculture, of engineering, of 

 home economics and industrial science is there a cry for 

 specially trained workers. The demand cannot be fully 

 met for years. Those who fit themselves now for the larg- 

 est usefulness in those fields will serve both their country 

 and themselves to the largest profit. Iowa State College 

 has opened a way to such training that is so broad and 

 free that no young man or woman with real ambition for an 

 education can fail to follow it if he will.
