Posing for an hour would make you hazy, tool retorts the model to her sketch class. rough talent gefs a polishing There is an egg, which, being fertilized and warmed, is hatched. lt now eats and eats and is a caterpillar. It still leads a restricted life, its mind can- not comprehend what lies out of the range of its feelers. After hardening into a chrysalis, its little haven bursts, it emerges, stretches its cramped wings, and flies. It now goes far beyond its former realm, munch- ing on many strange new delicacies. Now it is ready to make its contribution to the world. Just so, the pupil in iunior high is given a taste, but only a taste, of the sweets of life. He takes only what is in his immediate grasp, still restricted by his im- maturity, he paints with the bright reds so typical of the beginner, he is the originator of the slightly oft- chord blare of the trumpet at the semester concert. In his own Chrysalis, however, the student is gradu- I8 ally developing, and one day he breaks his immature bonds and emerges. ln high school his range of comprehension is greater. ln the art room he paints in many media, creates with lines, or in three dimension. ln music he joins the band, chorus, or orchestra, and there he becomes familiar with all types of music-pops, class- ical, folk, and spiritual. He now appreciates beautiful colors and harmonious sounds. Everything suddenly becomes vividly alive-the wonders of a Rembrandt, the rich tones of a Negro spiritual, the inspiring quality of a powerful symphony. Endeavor doesn't stop with attainment, there is always a higher goal. And toward this refinement and delicacy the student, the beginner, everyone, can con- tinually work. All together again now. Miss Thompson wonders whether she'll ever hear beautiful music again. IRVING l. SCHENKER EMMA LOUISE THOMPSON Cadet Band Chorus Orchestra Music Appreciation Concert Band fr s k,,..-nov

future housewives glean top-notch tips Every girl wants to run her home systematically and efficiently. An important factor in becoming a com- petent homemaker is the training she gets during these maturing years. What do we mean when we say train- ing? Any girl can keep house, but why should an ambitious girl be satisfied in being mediocre when N I 4 ' r l Fil r 'R s we -1 11 5 , f t ,X If W' 1 it-M I 4 i l li I' L 1 Would you mind growing another inch? lt seems a shame to waste all this good material.

Or, take cooking. Any girl can open a can of tuna fish, or cook up some hot dogs and call it supper, but what rewards the mother, trained in cooking, will receive when she hears her child say to the little boy next door, My mommy's the best cook in the worldl To be a mother and wife is one thing that most girls look forward to, but a sensible girl ought not to accept these wonderful gifts without training. She should be up to par on child care and be able to run her household on a smooth financial basis. A depend- able homemaker and mother will attain lasting hap- piness for herself and her family. mi.-ef
