The vocational class of '39 has members of which the student body can well be proud. 'During the past four years there has been much accomplished along the pro- ject line both at home and in the shop. For the progress, made in these departments Mr. Hess and Mr. Lewis deserve much credit. During the past four years the members of the Ag. Class have taken active part in the F.F.A. Several members have participated in the activities of F.F.A. Week at Penn State. Projects for the year of 1939 are: I Leo Kelley lf2 acre potatoes. Harry Harkness 300 chicks. Law- rence Shanley one dairy cow. Fran- cis Smith one dairy cow. Bennie Wilcox records on 500 laying hens. George Harkness lf8 acre of straw- berries and 700 ringneek chicks, F.F.A. Loses Active nmusnns This year's graduating class will take with it several active members of the F.F,A. Among these seniors, several have held chapter offices and have done outstanding work in classes and projects. The following seniors are graduating under the vocational course: Ben- nie Wilcox: George Harkness: Harry Harkness, Leo Kelley: Francis Smith: Lawrence Shanley. These individuals have con- tributed much to advancing the uAgN Department in Canton High ito its present status. HOME ECONOMICS Four years of Home Ee and in that four years just think of what the girls have gained that will be a great benefit to them after leavingvsehool. One of the greatest accom- plishments is that they have had practice as waitresses, serving the different banquets during these years, and this is a wide field for employment after leaving school. They have taken courses in sewing: that is, learning the fundamentals of sewing and putting them into practice making clothing out of cotton, silk and woolen materials. , Cooking has been a very im- portant part of their Home Ee, life. They have taken part in the serving of school lunches all through the four years and they all appreciate the fact.that they have become better acquainted with cooking. Short courses have also been given them on child care, personal grooming, family relationship, care of clothing, furniture arran- gement in the home and many other major subjects. F.F.A. MAKES SUMMER PLANS Numerous activities have been planned by the local F.F.A. chap- ter, to be carried out during vae cation. . Among these are state judging contests at Penn State, a camping trip, a capon contest and several Sunday outings and dances.

Vim and vinegar and overcrowded my mind with several senseless and melancholy subjects with which to again bore the few suckers who read this column. The 12 grade vocational shop class wants special diplomas for carrying stages, lumber, furniture ladders, Xmas trees, decorations, miscellaneous, etcetera. Perhaps they should receive the degree of uMaster of Totersn and collect ncarrying chargesu for a living. Turn your peepers on the sparkler Miss McGillvra is sport- ing-she seemed so sensible too-- In June, Miss McG? A traveling salesman should strike a bargain once in a while.--I suggest the C.H.S. faculty engage the services of a private Justice of the Peace to perform their many marriage ceremonies. Goodness, Gracious! If all of these nervous seniors pacing the corridors don't remind one of the hall in front of a maternity ward. W Now school is about to be dismissed and C.H.S. will be minus a group of'hell-bent senior boys who have, for four years, enter- tained the office force with their drum corps.
