It also provides for her learning to make her own garments, or if she expects to buy them, ready-made, she is more capable of judging and purchasing them in an economical way. FOODS Foods is an elective subject for any junior or senior girl who may want to improve her ability in cooking and knowledge of foods. It is designed to establish good food habils and to develop tech- nique in preparation and serving food. There is a growing interest in foods among the citizens of the world. MUSIC Some of the music courses included in the Constructive Arts department are: Orchestra, Band, Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs, and the more recently introduced course, Fundamentals in Music.

The High School Student Council Convention was held at Central during the first semester. Last year our Student Council gave much of its time to raise money for the Convention. There were about three hundred people who attended the convention, representing thirty-five schools and seven states. Most of the time was devoted to discussion groups and lectures by the students. Many of the speakers were of our own school. In these, our school problems were brought up and methods of correcting them was suggested. Bob James was the chairman of the Convention. The most noted man of the convention was Dr. John Rufi of the Department of Education from the University of Missouri, who was here to ob- serve the proceedings. As for recreation there was a dinner-dance at the Robidoux Hotel. Our cafeteria served luncheon every day. The next meeting will be held at Coffeeville, Kansas. Some of the other important services of the Student Council are the orientation classes for the incoming sophomores, printing the Hand Book, and participation in sectional convention. The Student Council is a very valuable organization. ri for Convention Representati' Convention ASSGIUMY Scene at Patrons, Night
