Home Economics today is education for home and family life: and the curriculum is built around the activities, needs, and interests of all phases of home living. As we open the door and step inside the Home Economics Department, our eye is caught by the homelike atmosphere. The severe, laboratory atmosphere is a thing of the past. The Foods Room sets the pattern for the modern home kitchen. Six L -shaped kitchens done in bone ivory and sea crest green provide every possible need for the small family group of pupils assigned to them. Some of the features that make kitchen work easier include: three-inch recessed toe space on all base unite: shelves that glide out as the cabinet door is opened thus eliminating stooping and reaching: dust-proof drawers: wall cupboards with shelves adjustable to one inch spacings: linoleum tops with raised edges on stainless steel banding to prevent spilled liquids from run- ning over on cabinets and floors: and a back splash to protect kitchen walls. Both gas and electric ranges are used. To add a decorative touch what-not shelves are placed by the sinks. Here in this ideal Foods Room menu plan- ning, food preparation and serving, table manners, party food, nutrition, con- sumer buying, kitchen planning, and the selection and arrangement of equip- ment are studied. From the Foods Room we enter the well-lighted and well-equipped Clothing Boom. Important is the system of individual drawers, interchange- able from sewing case compartments to table compartments, which has greatly lessened the confusion in large clothing classes. Besides practical construction, the selection and care of clothing and household fabrics is studied. Attention is also given to problems of consumer buying and fashion trends. qfame gcanamicd . . , eil Page Twelve I
