RAPRf ©omestic Science Class l A ' TER one year’s long, hard work as Freshmen we came back to school as Sophomores in the fall of 1920. Then came the awful “task” of selecting the classes that we would like to take. Almost half of the class thinking that Domestic Science was easy, registered in that class first. The first thing Mrs. Link did was to take our names and give us a brief outline of the work we had to cover. She told us about our note-books for cooking and text-books for sewing, and how particular we would have to be in taking down our notes. To some this seemed a little more than they had expected, so gradually they would notify Mrs. Link that they would not take Household Arts. Therefore, there were only twenty who were willing to try and see it to a finish. On the first day these twenty marched to school swinging their sewing bags. Then began our trials and tribulations of turning hems, regulating gathers, making buttonholes, sewing straight seams, and last, but not least, the difficult task of teaching Elizabeth Cross how to use a sewing machine. After Thanksgiving we came back to school in high spirits, for we were going to the new High School at ten minutes of nine in the morning instead of at twelve- thirty P. M., as at the Elementary School. We were overjoyed at having a real, sure-enough sewing room with tables, chairs, sewing machines and, best of all, a beautiful mirror which stood on the floor, and Edith Phillips tried her best to break it the very first day by gazing at herself in it for eighty minutes. Our next task was trying to remember to bring twenty-five cents to help raise money for curtains for our room. After a long time we succeeded in getting them. Then luck came our way and the sewing room was one of the rooms to which Mr. Birckhead gave shades. After this, Alice didn’t have to wear paper bonnets to shade her eyes. After we succeeded in getting our room beautiful this far, we thoroughly enjoyed every moment of our sewing from the first until we reached the top of the ladder, when we began dresses. And we did not regret the time and work that we had spent taking notes and writing lessons. 89
