Distributive education- DIVERSIFIED OCCUPATIONS Distributive Education refers to vocational education for those engaged in distributing goods and services to the public including all retail, wholesale, and service occupations. It is an example of co- operative training requiring the joint interest and efforts of the schools, the distributive businesses, and the community. All three benefit thereby -- the school by providing training that is needed -- the employer by obtaining more efficient personnel -- the community by receiving better service as con- sumers. The Diversified Occupations program is a co-operative part-time education program which involves a co-operative agreement between business and industrial enterprises of the community, and high school. It is open to juniors and seniors, 16 years of age, who have earned at least 8 credits. The pupil learns actual experiences on the job in the trade or occupation of his choice, and the school facilities are used to furnish technical subject material related to the job being learned. Dorothy Jenkins, working under the D£. rogram, tries to sell Barbara Ann Lloyd a pair f shoes. The D.O. Class studies hard to make the grade.

THE OFFICERS ARE, From Left to Right: H, M. Baker, Charlotte Carter, Patsy Mann, and Robert Devers. Clarke County is very fortunate in having five church denominations represented within its borders “■ Presbyterian, Baptist, Methodist, Episcopal, and Community. All of which are very active. About fifty per cent of the people in OUR COUNTY are members of one of these religious denominations. Also there is a Holy Cross Monastery which is inhabited by monks o f the Cis- tercian Order. The churches in OUR COUNTY serve as a meeting place for several of our local organizations such as the boys scouts and the Teen-Age Canteen. Each year the churches in Berry- ville sponsor jointly a Vacation Bible School. Thus in OUR COUNTY the churches work for their common goals by cooper atir with each other. 17 cAi ?o O Z tn crt
