I DUSTRIA lndustrial Arts is a vocational course open to all the male students of Hurst High School, and the capable instructor is Mr. Christner. The prin- cipal idea of the course is to teach the students the proper care and use of practical tools. First year students are not permitted to use the power tools, that is, with the exception of the iig saw and the wood lathes. Some of the power tools which you could see in our shop, if you were to visit it, are circular saws, a band saw, a iig saw, ARTS CLU wood and metal lathes, sanders, a iointer, and a drill press. The students learn how to make many useful things from wood and metal. They are permitted to make anything they wish as long as they pay for the material used. Some of the work turned out by these future wood and metal workers is excellent in quality. This class requires a keen mind and keeps the students busy for five days a week. Industrial Arts is preferred by many of our boys.

SPANISH CLUB 'The Spanish Club motto is: Hay Un Gran Trecho Por El Espanol Hastala manana . . . adios . . . These familiar phrases seem to echo through the empty classroom as members of the Spanish Club stream out of another meeting. This group is striving for better monthly programs with the use of Mexican songs, games, and records. Annually, our big project is to earn enough money to buy honorary pins for the departing seniors. This year the ways and means committee is making plans for a Spanish fiesta which will be held in May.
