Members of the Home Economics Department participated in several interesting projects during the year. At the Farm Show in Harrisburg three of the girls gave a demonstration known as '6The Romance of Cheese , and were awarded third place by the State Department of Agriculture. In January the girls of the department served a luncheon to the directors and faculty of Trinity High School. Wlieii considering the value ol' Home Economics in the High School, we feel that it helps one to meet intelligently the tasks of life. Among other things, we study the problems in home management which will be useful in future years. 'We wish all the girls taking this course abundant success and hap- piness in their lives. +I Tl.lZAISIi'I'lI Dn.mAN Trinity F. F. A. Continued from Page 23 Trinity projects was one hundred fifty-four as compared with eighty- tive made last year. In recognition of this honor, we received a beauti- ful picture for the Agriculture Room and several gold, silver or bronze medals, depending upon the place won by individual projects. This year our list of Kevstone Farmers increased to a total of twenty-one. J. Louis Baker, Forrest Clarke and VValter Barrett were the Trinity boys who received the much coveted State Degrees this year at the State Farm Show. Several vears ago Mr. Ford was made an honorary member of the Keystone Association of Future Farmers and this vear Mr. Gordon was asked to attend the State meeting and receive the Honorary Keystone Farmer Degree. VVe are proud that Mr. Gordon has been, for several years, an honorary member of our chapter and it pleased us as much as it did him to have the State organization thus recognize the work that he is doing in boosting future farmer activities. Irwin Knox, now in his second year at Penn State, was in his place as State Vice President at the State Meeting but Howard Ferguson, who is taking forestry at Mount Alto was unable to attend and take his place on the State Executive Committee. In the election of State otiicers for next year, Forrest Clarke was made State Reporter. l27I

For the third consecutive year, Trinity has been fortunate enougl1 to be represented at the National Convention at Kansas City. This year, several Trinity boys were eligible but the State Committee chose Clinton Pease Know at Bethany Collegel to be one ot' the two State delegates and to receive the highest Future Farmer Degreefthat of American Farmer. Clinton was accompanied to Kansas City by our own Alumni Editor, D. l.. Frazee, and both boys were greatly elated over the trip. Clinton came out second to Bobby Jones, ot' Ohio, in the contest for the ottice ol' National President. Another thing that happened at the Na- tional Convention which pleased us was the selection ot Trinity's Chapter report t'or consideration in the awarding ol' the Your chapter prizes. Although we were not able to learn the exact placing of our report, the t'act that it was among the few displayed with the winning reports indicates that Trinity can hold her place even in national circles. The Classical Guild Confiiziierl from Page 26 It is the purpose ol' the guild to emphasize the importance ol' the Roman Civilization a11d its contributions to our modern age. The aim ot' the guild is to read the best. The motto ol' the guild is Labo1'are et 111'11r'e1'e, a quotation from Vergil. Meetings are held monthly during our regular class period. Subjects discussed at these meetings were customs and manners and Latin cross word puzzles. Miss Zediker was speaker at another meeting. Une ot' the major projects ot' the year was the presentation of an assembly pro- gram, which contrasted ancient and modern customs. The title of the play was ln Ancient Daysf' A Christmas party, to which members were permitted to bring guests was held at the home ot' Miss Bedillion.
