Art The art department attempts to instill in young people the idea that art is a part of our living and a way of meeting human requirements. The fundamentals, form, color, and design, are especially stressed so that the student may have a higher standard when judging the significance of things made by man. By learning to express their own ideas visually the boys and girls learn to use greater discrimination in selecting the things which meet their everyday needs. Mrs. Johnson teaches first and second term general art, and Miss Bergsvik teaches the other courses in drawing. General, freehand and commercial art, cartooning, poster drawing, and lettering are a number of the different types of art that are now being taught. Metal art at Jefferson, taught by Mrs. Minton and Miss Bergsvik, is becoming more and more popular. The students have a wide choice of things to make. Some of the metal works that were made this year—rings, letter openers, bud vases, and bracelets—have been displayed in the show cases in the halls. The more technical type of art is studied in mechanical drawing, under the super- vision of Mr. Mangold.

With steady hands The Master Engineer Controls. —Peter Beckman. 16

Music The music department of Jefferson offers its students one of the most complete courses attainable in the city. The regular boys' and girls' glee classes as well as the mixed choral groups are sources of excellent voice training and tone quality. The theory class, truly a necessary part of any musical education, provides the background and technical instructions necessary for a complete and thorough understanding and appreciation of any type or kind of music. Under the able direction of Mr. Hollensted, the A Cappella Choir, the Treble Clef, and the Gleemen have brought honor and distinction to Jefferson. On the evening of February 22 the Choir had the pleasure of singing for the naturalization services at the Civic Auditorium. During the spring term, Mr. C. Ashley Cook took over the duties as conductor of the band and orchestra. He filled the vacancy left by Mr. Wright. Household Arts Clothing, home administration, foods, nutrition, home nursing, and child care are popular courses at Jefferson. In these specialized classes the students learn how to care for the child, the sick and the home. The home administration classes deal largely with family and social relationships. Mrs. Irma Shrock, Mrs. Helen Siver, and Mrs. Lucile Higgins are the home administration teachers, and Mrs. Higgins teaches all the foods classes. The boys are offered a one term course which includes short units on all phases of home-making, with special emphasis on foods. Mrs. Irma Shrock, Mrs. Doris Catlin, and Miss Edna Waples are the staff of clothing teachers at Jefferson. In the manual training classes as one of the main projects Mr. Leon LaForge is teaching the boys to build model airplanes for the army. For each of ten different types of planes ten must be built. Mr. LaForge is also the instructor for the book- binding classes which the students find very interesting.
