Miss Dowd stresses that the mechanical part of driving is no more important than the driving attitude of courtesy, safety, and respect for law.

Michigan State College Agriculture F.F.A. and 4-H Adviser grricultwre The vocational agriculture classes learn by doing dur- ing their two-period class sessions. This method is easily carried on as the boys bring in their butchering or what- ever, and Mr. Jewett takes them to the scenes of other learning jobs-treating and germination of seeds, ring- ing of pigs, treating animals for parasites and diseases, clipping and dehorning cows, dipping sheep, surveying, or pruning. Field trips to farms in the district and to State Farmers' Week at East Lansing also add a large measure of the feeling of play to their work. Twenty-two boys against two sheep. 'ii 4:99 4 F' 6.

Music Our music teachers have been very busy this year with the training of their students for the numerous public appearances which have been made. Among the many appearances were the vocal and instru- mental concerts for the P.T.A. Smaller groups such as the Boys' Double Quartette and the German Band have performed before groups where it was impos- sible to bring the entire Choir or Band. The vocal department sang Christmas carols in three hospitals. All showed the united effort put forth in this field of education. Many flute players get cross-eyed trying to watch their fingers, but we are betting Judith Perry, Betty Nyman, and Sandra Wilcox won't. Practicing the trombone smear are Jim Davisson, Gail McClure, and Tom Larson. Sophomores working out on barber-shop harmony 4Myers, Angell, Mancour, Leavy, Jeffers, Anderson, Warren.D 27 EUNICE D.
