4.41- EIGHTH GRADE INDUSTRIAL ARTS Eleven boys compose the eighth grade class in Industrial Arts. Mr. Riegger is our teacher, and he really knows his subject. He helps us a great deal, and the boys like him very much. We began our course by planning a bread board. Then we had to learn the parts of a plane. We recite only on alter- nate days, so it took us several weeks to complete the bread boards which we gave to our mothers for Christmas. The second semester some of us decided to make sewing baskets, and some, flower baskets. To make our baskets we have used the following tools: coping saw, ripssaw, band saw, back saw, draw knife, planes, block planes, tri-squares, hammers, Scrapers, and brace and bit. SEVENTH GRADE INDUSTRIAL ARTS The seventeen boys of the Seventh Grade spent the first two weeks of school learning the seventeen parts of the plane, Then we drew up plans for making bread boards. When the plans were completed we made the boards and gave them to our mothers for Christmas. After vacation we made scoops out of tin cans. In this problem we learned to use tin snips and soldering copper. We then learned to use a molding set which one of the boys had. Next we made a dancing doll which consists of five parts. We have also had several talks and discussions about different tools. ART Art is new here this year, but we have tried to cover every phase of it that is possible. We have done this be- cause it is really being introduced to us and we want to make a foundation for years to come. We want Clarksburg to be as well known for its art, as for its music. We are sorry we cannot publish pictures of the many fine things we have made this year, landscapes, portraits, applique cut out pictures, drapery prints, and such, but that is impossible. We are, however, proud indeed of the work finished on this annual. Each of these title pages was drawn by members of the art class. We hope to have more people interested next year, and we want to make more, different, and better things each year as we go on. We hope art has become a permanent addition to our school.
