Spcwdad 5 Wome Zcmamlca Mrs. Nickels, who teaches the Spanish course in HHS, is showing her students a book which could help them in their lesson. HHS offers three years of home economics. The course includes cooking, sewing, knitting, hous e- planning, marketing, and budgeting. During the first year of home economics, the girls learn the basic fundamentals of homemak- ing. The second year stresses family relations and during the third year the girls develop their skills further in sewing and the other fundamentals. The foreign language department of HHS offers three years of Spanish. Spanish gives the students a broader knowledge of Spanish ways and cus- toms and it also teaches the students to speak, hear, and write the language fluently. The Spanish students are also very fortunate to have the earphones and tape machines available to them in their studies. Mrs. Horton shows one ofher students the first steps in cutting out a pattern.
