HABITS FOB II O 31E 31A K ! N 1i With a desire to learn how to become artistic and efficient homemakers, we have pursued studies in home economics. Some of us have learned not only how to prepare nutritious foods with an appetizing appeal to the taste and the eye, but also how to buy food materials wisely. Others in their study of the art of clothing have learned how to design and make gar¬ ments and how to wear them most attractively. Both de¬ partments in home economics have stressed budgeting in¬ comes so that they may be used to the best advantage. All in all, we have acquired a body of knowledge concerning home management that will be of great value to us when we become tomorrow’s home-makers. Eileen Finger, Evelyne Motts, Lila Lee Spanley, and Pauline Staschke prepare a meal in one of the new model kitchens. INVESTIGA TING INDUSTRIES Studies in the industrial arts have given many of us the opportunity to explore various vocations and to practice their basic skills. In architectural and mechanical drawing we have found a method for setting down plans for build¬ ing. Work in the shops has given us the satisfaction which results from creating from raw materials objects of use or beauty. Some of us have investigated the newer voca¬ tions of electricity and radio which attract those ingenious in discovery and invention as well as those who wish to work with material already in use. These explorations of the crafts in industry have been of great practical value to us, for from them we have learned that the hand can be trained to apply the thought in the mind. iSS John Baughman and Bill Cook construct model houses under the direction of Mr. Dunn. 27

n e it o i . n n t n e a u r i It is unlikely that many of us will attain immortality in the world of art or even win recognition for our creative attempts among our contemporaries few of us will continue art work when we have finished our study at schoo I. Yet, we have all come closer to art. We h ave come to feel a deeper respect for painting and sculpture as we have realized from our own trials how much knowledge, time, an d effort go into the simplest work. Then, we have ex¬ perienced the joy and the struggle of creation—that birth of the mental image before brush is put to canvas. Above all, we have wakened to beauty, not only in art but in all the life about us.
