PREPARATION FOR THE REAL THING w U, Q 5 , 1 R , .I A.-. fx , . 2 fm-if P ' AETE f , ' ' ff 4 ' kj fi Miss Henry Mrs. Brown The plans for the I-lomemaking Depart- ment started to change this year to better accomodate students for future life. Although the girls still made their tasty pastries and fashionable dresses , third year students had some training in vocational work. Miss Henry's students took some train- ing as short order cooks while Mrs . Brown instructed her students in alteration work. Also her advanced class had some training in wall and floor covering, furniture buy- ing, table decorating, and flower arranging . This was accomplished through cooperative effort of several resource people from the community who were called in to demon- strate or lecture . This is another example of the growth of our school system to better suit the needs of students after high school. 22
