I24I Two of the most practical skills a girl can master are those twin essentials for home-making: cooking and sewing. East's home economics department pre- pares girls for this all important job. Beginning and advanced food making and sewing, dress designing and social living give students interested in these fields an abundant opportunity for gaining a high degree of proficiency. Woodwork, metal work, crafts, and mechanical drawing courses give an opportunity to those boys and girls interested in the industrial arts to try their skills in this field. Practical handicraft, vocational exploration and training and hobby work are among the objectives of this department.
