H o me Economics l l l l The large enrollment in each of the Home Ee classes proved the enthusiasm for such a course shown by the girls this year. Red Cross sewing was the first project and the classes rated very high in the state for their accom- plishments. Many other interesting courses followed to give helpful instruction to these homemakers of tomorrow. The Home Nursing class was started under the direction of Mrs. Knight who instructed the girls in the fundamentals. Daily practice classes were conducted by the Home Ec Instructor, Mrs. Fan- cher. Upon completion of the course graduation exercises were held. At the exercises we were honored by the presence of Mrs. Bailey, the secre- tary of the state Red Cross organization. The Kimberly Red Cross chapter presented flowers to the Home Nursing instructors and a corsage to Mrs. Fancher. The members are: J. Higgins, E. Norris, L. Stayton, R Weech, L. Britt, T. Thorpe, L. Morgon V. Taylor, J. Kight, A. Sudweeks, L Lattin, B. Hilligas, S. Banning, A. Mul- der, N. Teague, A. Bulcher, D. Mason E. Martin, F. Nelson, B. Rowe, W. Sal- lee, I. Bowman, R. Ross, A.

Skyrocket Staff long established tradition in most high schools is that of publishing a school paper. The SK YROCKET in Kimberly has for years provided the students with the up-to-date news and the latest bit of tongue- wagging. For the past two years it has been edited almost completely by the stu- dents, since our faculty has been small and they have had little time to give us support. Our most able editor, Dwight Theitten, left us at mid-term to enter the navy. As custom- ary, the assistant editor, Lola Mae Britt, took the position over, and Don Phillips was elected assistant editor. Plans were immedi- ately started for two last editions-an all- school papers and a special edition to be pub- lished before graduation.

Girl Reserves THE GIRLS RESERVE was organized in December following a visit by Mrs. Mary Doolittle, state YWCA secretary, who explained it's principles and standards, and helped to boost it to a fine start. It was backed by an adult counsel of local women with Mrs. Walter Slaughter, advisor, and Mrs. Robert Denton, assistant. The organization was active in school and social affairs and it is hoped it will continue to grow in number and activity in the coming years. THE GR is a junior branch of the YWCA, for girls of high school age. It's goals are to teach young girls the principles and characteristics which materialize into pure womanhood. It's symbol, the triangle, stands for the three main goals-perfecting the mind, spirit, and body. It extends it's teachings throughout the world and has proven to be a great influence in planting wholesome, healthful, and Christian ideals in the hearts of these mothers and leaders of tomorrow.
