Courses Ready Students for Future Careers During the freshman and junior years students learn the art of cooking. As one walks down the hall, he is soon overcome by the tempting aromas floating from the Home Ec. room. During the Christmas season, girls are always busy preparing cookies for the entire student body, including teachers. In the sophomore year, along with cooking, the class is instructed in the care and aiding of sick people. They learn everything from how to roll a bandage to the treating of a snakebite. Demonstrations make the subject become more realistic. No Home Ec. department would be complete without the steady humming of sewing machines. Girls are taught the basic steps in using a sewing machine before they ever start to sew. A minimum of three projects is required to finish the course in sewing; but the girls find they can finish as many as five projects. The senior Home Ec. class learns the principles of design and how to use them in their own homes. Furniture styles are also presented to the class, teaching them how to choose their furniture for the future. Mrs. Betty Burney and Mrs. Harriet Spotts help the students prepare for the responsibilities of running a home and caring for a family. CLIP ALL THE THREADS-Pamela Rose learns the art of sewing in Mrs. Harriet Spotts sewing class. SIFT THE FLOUR TWICE! Julie Foster and Wanda Er- curacy.
