r H Covering a wide rang of interests and abili¬ ties, the vocational arts courses provide interest in future home-making, home-building, and do- it-yourself hobbies. In home economics courses we prepare for our household duties which lie ahead. Many of the homemakers of tomorrow learn the basic principles of cooking skills. As the year progresses, entire meals are prepared by the more experi¬ enced cooks. Eye appeal is important, so personal grooming is stressed. Sewing classes develop an interest in fashion. Skill with tools is an advantage as we take our place in society. In woodshop classes various wooden objects from cabinets to spoons are made. Other shops, such as print shop and metal shop, help students to become familiar with other occu¬ pational skills. Typing and shorthand courses prepare stu¬ dents for college or secretarial positions. A knowledge of these practical arts prepares us for entrance into the adult world.
