VALUE OF STUDENT LABOR
(Guest Editorial)
By Miss C. B. Mo<:>re
The method of carrying on the work in a school
dormitory differs according to the type of school, and the
economic conditions of the students.
In some schools the general work of the dormi~
tory is performed entir~hr.. by the students. This is fre~
quently done for the pu'; pose of providing a means of
self~support for the students.
And the Oillwells, farmers and
"·oodsmen,
And oue a young teacher to the
sons aud maids.
1'hough twas but a 1·oad, that
divided these families two,
Tl1ey didn't speak, dared not to
meet,
Or cross each other's property
in plil in view
To1' they were wa1·ing, nourish­iug
a feud.
Feuds were honible things you
know
'rhey made a 1nan forget he had
a soul, ·
1'... mother forget she bad a child,
And everyone just went on war­ing,
killing all the while.
For a number of years, the general work of the
dormitories o r the Winston~Salem Teachers College :-vas
performed by the students. Each student was reqmred
to work one or two hours daily in addition to daily care
of the r(;oms. This ·reduced the expenses of the stu~
dents, and at the same time gave them training in house~
keeping and assuming responsibility.

This was perhaps the most
enjoyable e:ll.-perience of the
whole course.
Those who have completed
this -course are prepared to be
scoutmasters of boy scout
troops. I t must be remembered,
however. that this course was
the minimum amount of train­ing
whi-ch would entitle one to
assume such a posit,ion. 'rhis
minimum course ta.ltes one
through second class require­ments.
Obviously this training
would become inadequate as
soon as the boys of a troop have
reached second class r·ank. 'rhe
second half of this ·eou l.'se, which
has not been given, completes
the training needed for this po­sition,
covering as it does the
first class requirements. lt is
hoped that there will be suffici­ent
interest to warrant offet·ing
the second course during the
latter part of April.
