ss rs THE SENIOR HIGH WOODWORKING CLASS IN ACTION UNDER THE DIRECTION OF MR. ERNST, QStanding at Lefty Our Industrial Arts Department With leading educators Ending the pendulum swinging away from the highly classical and academic work toward the more practical and applied, Industrial Arts work of the future will find itself confronted with larger problems and more specific responsibilities. Our department here is cognizant of these opportunities for presenting real, functioning, educative material and has already laid plans for future development along this line. This year in addition to the usual Industrial Arts program we have added two courses in high school woodworking the results of which are in evidence throughout the school and in a good many Hamburg homes. Students in this work are already planning their big annual exhibit for the Erie County Fair. As part of the Junior High School club program this department has successfully sponsored the Aviation and Camera clubs thus aiding in the solution of the leisure time problem. Next year all Junior High School work will be conducted on the General Shop Plan whereby students will experience a wider range of industrial activities. Vocational Guidance work as inaugurated for next year will be partly centered in the Industrial Arts Department and definite work on allotted time will be accomplished in this field. safmstf il X,,:3s,J0N I 9 3 I -fmldfjil Twentyftwo

MRS. SALISBURY AND MRS. COLVIN IN CHARGE OF THE CAFETERIA The Homemaking Department Memories! memories of burnt cookies, of delicious cookies, of queer smocks, of architecture and of the cottage dressed up for a tea. What a succession of events have occurred in the cottage! One forgetfmefnot in that memory bouquet is the first dress. It was a queer affair, one sleeve sewed in where the neckfline should have been and snaps that didn't meet. Memories of excursions of which none needs reminding. The girls have seen Kittenger furniture made, wallpaper printed and have taken journeys through the Children's Hospital. Above all, mention must be made of two lovely creatures of homemaking acquaintance, proud Algernon and dainty Gertrude. Many a girl felt sad on the day when poor Algernon who had subsisted meagerly on toast and coffee, lay down, sapped of his young vitality. However Gertrude existed on milk and vegetables and was a perfect specimen of healthy rathood. This experiment in diet proved very helpful to the girls. And certainly our memories of Mrs. Anderson will long remain with us. same ful I 9 3 T .fer-sa ill ssarffa, 'ftuentyffotw'
