5 ClllSSlS Lamar recognizes the fact that manual training is a phase of education not to be overlooked. Here a student is at work in Lamar's newly built and equipped shop. Art is one subject that is as much fun as work. Here a group of students are busily working on one of their proiects, the construction of paper mache figures. Lucky is the man who marries one of these girls, for she will certainly be an experienced chef after finishing the cooking course offered by Lamar's home economics department. As busy as bees but twice as clever are these girls at work in one of Lamar's classes in sewing, iust another phase of home economics instruction. Upper right: MR. H. E.

llllIUlll Right shoulder arms! comes the com- mand which these R.O.T.C. students are about to follow during practice in drill- ing, one part of the extensive military training Lamar's cadets receive. Music! Music! Music! certainly fills the halls at Lamar. ln addition to regular classes such as this, there are two or- ganized choruses, the Girls' Chorus and the Mixed Chorus. No one can say that the field of com- mercial arts is neglected at Lamar. As proof here are typing students busily at work trying to improve their ac- curacy and speed. Lamar girls find that physical education courses have certainly changed since mother was a girl. Here, for instance, these girls are practicing for a test in First Aid, a regular part of their gym training. Upper left: MR. LEE S. KEDING Chairman, Music Department Lower left: MRS. MAY H.
