Girls Acquire Essential Homemaking Skills Sewing a straight seam and baking a cherry pie are not the only accomplishments that feminine Braves can boast. The girls not only learn to cook and sew, but also receive instruction in home nursing and child care. Home nursing, a course which lasts six weeks, includes many helpful hints that are beneficial to the students such as how to take a person's temperature or prepare a liquid diet. A major part of their instruction is provided through a series of fifteen movies. Happy smiles shine from the faces of the prospective home- makers as they put on freshly-starched white aprons and descend upon the home economics kitchen. The highlight of their cook- ing experiences is the opportunity to prepare a meal which they serve to some of their classmates. Looks of complete consternation prevail at the sewing ma- chines as weary young misses struggle to sew zippers into dresses or skirts, for they know that they must satisfactorily complete a blouse, skirt and dress in order to pass home economics. They are also required to select a home project which can be making pot holders or stuffed animals. Third-year homemakers learn the problems involved in taking care of a baby as they practice bathing and dresing a doll. The girls then learn to prepare a baby's diet. Certainly, upon finishing these courses a girl may consider herself well prepared to establish a successful household.

Variety Advocaled In Boone Music Classes Appreciation of all types of music--be it classical, jazz, or rock 'n' roll-is a major goal of Boones music department which consists of the Glee Club and the Band. Singing is not the only activity in the Glee Club classes, for without theory, sheet music would mean nothing to them. Sight reading is also a major line of study because they are judged upon it at the District and the State Music Festivals, The opportunity to listen to records on the hi-f1 serves as a reward for the students working diligently to perfect their repertoire. Band, the other music course, is divided into two major groups, Band I and Band II. The students who are in Band I spend hours and hours practicing intricate drills on the ath- letic field, for this is the colorful group that supplies the entertainment for all home football games. The boys and girls in Band II study arrangements, simple drills and correct pro- cedures with the dream of earning a place as a member of Band I. H.

THESE HOME and Family Living sfudenfs, Warren Nealy and Paul Braxfon, are preparing fhemselves for fhe fufure by learn- ing fo press and remove spofs from fheir own clofhes. Successful, Happy Families Goal Of Students Home and family living concerns exactly what the name suggests. Marrying successfully and happily, establishing a good home and rearing normal well-adjusted children is the dream of most young couples. Unfortunately, many marriages don't achieve that goal. Through panel discus- sions, plays and movies, right and wrong ways of rearing children and choosing a husband or wife are illustrated. The pitfalls of a too-early marriage are discussed because in this community teenagers often exchange nuptial vows before graduation. When a student has completed this course, he realizes more thoroughly the responsibilities which he must assume with his marriage license. Since as many boys as girls enroll in the course, it is necessary that etiquette be an integral part of the planned study program. Table service, formal and family style, is the basis for one segment of a major endeavor-planning, preparing and serving a dinner to a group of students. The meal must not only be attractive, but it must also be balanced nutritionally. A final important part of the course is studying why one behaves in a certain way and what incidents influence the molding of his character. From this unit, students are better prepared to cope with the personality problems which they may encounter later in life.
