To the Kennel Managers, who have made it possible for the C. H. S. Dog- house to add so many improvements, a vote of thanks is given . . . I... Wolff, L. Renfro, E, Hoffman, I. Crawford, R. Allison, R. Divers and H. Uffelman., I certainly Was surprised at the change in classes when I came to visit at Chester High last September . . . The Agriculture Department had changed its address . . . lr. High had a new home . . . Industrial Arts Department now occupied the old Ag quarters . . . and Home Economics students had to watch their quarters gradually be dressed up. The Agriculture, Industrial Arts, and Home Economics Departments are now operating under the Smith-Hughes pro- gram . , . this is a plan devised by the government whereby aid is given to the schools . . . standards for equipment, teachers, and the courses taught are set up by the government . . . this govern- ment aid helps the school have more money for equipment. KIENNIEIL MANAGERS Industrial Arts Department has been successful . . . the boys are learning many practical things . . . the material taught is a good foundation for many vocations . . . this Vocational Building Trades Department is under the super- vision of Mr. M. McElhiney, who has been well trained to instruct the Ches- ter boys. r Four complete unit kitchens now make up a portion of the Home EC room . , . a dining room occupies the center section of the room . . . Duncan Fyfe table and chairs . . . new curtains . . . colorful books on shelves . . . sew- ing machines . . . work tables . . . dress- ing roorn . . . a pleasure for any girl to learn to cook or sew. The Ag Department has done its share of work around our campus this year . . . for the boys are faithfully beautifying the grounds . . . no more smell of garlic . . . we hope. The pictures on the opposite page will show you some of the changes inade around C. H. S. this year . . . and the work done by the Doghouse ten- ants. L. Renfro, I, Crawford, H. Uftelman, Mrs. L. C.
