The students are required to teach cooking and sewing in the training department of the Normal, as well as some of the common branches.
The number of students desiring to take this course increases each year, which shows the growing appreciation of this work. This year there are between forty and fifty Juniors taking the domestic science course.
Stevens Point Normal is the only Normal in the state offering a full normal course in domestic science and domestic art to its students and this department brings us students from all parts of the state.
The class has been making a study of sugar, as to it composition, food value, place in the diet, etc. This theoretical work is to be followed by several lessons in candy making. This work is to come just before Christmas.
*The Normal Pointer, December 1910
