Throughout the year at four intervals these sheets were re-checked and data added to them. It was fun watching ourselves grow and change physically. During the study of posture each girl walked past the class and was ' judged by all others. Helpful hints were given to all. While the eye was being studied pigs' eyes were secured and dissected for actual study and observation of the eye parts. An intensive study was'made of tuberculosis in relation to the Christ- mas seals driveg another study was made of infantile paralysis along with the March of Dimes drive. The 9th grade girls sponsored the drive and a total of 820.00 was turned in to the county chairman for the March of Dimes. At mid year the 7th and 8th grade girls began a study of safety educa- tion. This class proved very interesting and helpful in making each girl safety conscious. A poster exhibit was planned to exemplify helpful hints that would benefit our entire student body. 'The girls were constantly on the alert for articles from newspapers and magazines on accidents that could have been avoided. 1 4.
