Jerry Coats, Simpson Currin, Bobby Beckwith, John Robert Pruitt and Larry McLaurin demonstrate practical knowledge learned in the shop. Vocational agriculture prepares those who are planning to make farming their profession. It also helps boys who don’t plan to be farmers but may need a knowledge of these various activities in other fields of work. Classroom discussions teach these boys facts, while demonstrations enable them to comprehend these facts, and actual participation in supervised projects adds the final touch by letting them profit by their mistakes. The fields of study are mechanics, crops, livestock and actual manage¬ ment. Two years are required for the course. Jerry Smith, Jerry Wood and Bill Kelly learn the art of trimming shrubbery. Leon Carroll shows Carl Ragan and Donald Jeffries the correct way to groom a calf. 23

VaccUiostal Jlo-me, Ccost nUcA, Gloria Powell and Paulette Welch experiment in cooking with the aid of a recipe book. Diane Ellis explains one of the Home Economics projects. A girl may know all there is to know about housekeeping, but if she doesn’t know how to apply this knowledge it won’t benefit her. In Vocational Home Economics girls learn child care, the fine arts of sewing, practical etiquette, interior decorat¬ ion, facts on fashions and fabrics, and of course cooking. Girls at Fuquay Springs may take Home Economics in their Freshman year. Two years must be taken in order to receive credit for the course. However, one may take it in either three or four of her high school years. Becky Capps points out the characteristics of a future homemaker. 00

Social Studied, Priscilla Dye and Simpson Currin admire a Geography-Government bulletin board. We’ve all argued the point that history isn’t im¬ portant because it’s in the past, but it’s only with a knowledge of past mistakes and problems that we can confront our modern problems. The courses offered at Fuquay are North Carolina History for eighth-graders, World History for Sophomores, Economics-Sociology for Seniors, a television course in United States History for juniors, and a combined course of Geography and Government for any student in high school. Four units in Social Studies are re¬ quired for graduation. Elizabeth Engle turns on the television for U. S. History. Robert Powell and Joan Wilson are learning about investments through the Economics bulletin board. 24
