T I Ifir Ir Standing I. .iiij lndustrial Arts Train the Future Men of lndustry Wcitiltl you like to be an architect, mechanic, publisher, or a worker in wood? Students learn the fundamentals of these prof fessions and trades in boys' industrial arts. ln mechanical drawing a boy wanting to be an architect learns to draw the threads on a bolt, and other of the simpler things. This will enable him to understand blueprints fnot a kind of clothj later on. The future mechanic learns how to run machines so that he may later earn his living by running more complicated ones. How exciting is the cry, Stop the presses! The young printf ers get a foretaste of what running a press is like in the printing shop. The smell of printer's paper, mingled with that of printer's ink, creates a typical printing atmosphere. Vxfoodworking is an art much enjoyed by young boys. Useful articles are shaped under their hands, which help beautify their homes. Woodcarving is becoming a skill with some of the boys. Alf though it is a vanishing art, they find it very interesting. mtv. Sitting, Mi. li-ln: l

This remark echoes through the halls when students go by the cooking rooms on the third floor. What delightful lunches the young cooks have! VJouldn't you like a nice, fluffy omelet, a large, red, baked apple, a pot of golden brown beans, or some delicious strawberry jam to dip your fingers into? Perhaps you would rather have a nice wholesome meal with a pork chop, string beans, and scalloped potatoes. Instead of something to eat, would you like some new clothes because you haven't a thing to wear? The youthful seamstresses are skillful and can make any num' ber of things. A pretty smock, a dress, a pair of pajamas, a coat, an ensemble, a suit-all are products of the young sewers' hands. Parents of these students can't say, as they do of other things, fLWhCll I was young, I could do so and so. Instead they say, Did you make that dress? It looks very becoming on you. How often we hear some person say, 'LShe isn't very pretty, but she dresses attractively and looks well' groomed. In personal regimen the girls attempt to acquire good taste in their dress and in their manners. .xPF m-Q
