Home Economics Club GLADYS MICHAEL -------- President BERNETTA EARLY - Vice Preszdenl MARTHA EARLY ----- - - Secretary A group of girls sewing busily, forreheads puckered as a thread becomes knotted or something doesn't fit . . . girls studying welfare problems, trying to lessen the pressing need for wearing apparel for the needy . . . laughing at somebody's joke or at a humorous incident . . . girls learning how to shop efficiently. studying home-making . . . girls discussing clothes-how to make and wear them . . . deriving benefits which will serve them all their lives . . . that's the Home Economics Club! EING a comparative new organization tonly two years oldj, we feel sure there are many students who are unaware of the fine work that the Home Economics club is accomplishing. Its main purpose-to aid the city in public welfare work-is certainly an excellent one. As the club's first welfare project. the girls gave their time and energy to help the Christmas Mother. They made a large number of cunning rag dolls. which certainly brought delight to many a poor child on Christmas day, fRemernber when one of the downtown stores displayed all those cute dolls of every conceivable size, shape, and color? Perhaps you didn't know they were the handiwork of our own Home Economics club.j The girls also gave their aid to the Red Cross making not only women's and children's dresses, but men's shirts as well. In doing all these things, the girls gained very valuable experience by which. they will always profit. After the problem of caring for needy families was satisfactorily com- pleted, the club members, seeking something both interesting and educational, visited the various factories and manufacturing plants in Lima. Under Miss Phyllis lVlendenhall's able supervision, the club has made great progress this year. lts scope is a wide one, and the girls do every phase of it very capably. aMAR.JoR1E ZIMMERMANN one hundred zruenrg

RTfa small word that signifies a good deal and assuredly does its bit in brightening the drab existence of humanity. Realizing that Central students are a part of this humanity. the Art club has striven. since the year of its birth in IQIQ. for a fuller appreciation of every-day art. It is difiie cult for a small group to accomplish this. especially among high school students. because they have so little time in which to develop an appreciation of art. This year. however. the club feels that it has succeeded somewhat in attracting the attention and the artistic sense of the student body by carrying out an unusual program, namely the painting of a landscape on the back wall of the stage. The entire club took part in all phases of the project, sponsored by Mrs. Estella Burrell. supervisor of the Fine Arts Department in the Lima schools. At its completion the painting was presented to the school during an assembly. and. judging by the oh's and ah's , the undertaking was a great success. The remainder of the year was spent with each individual working in whatever line he chose. In the spring, an outdoor meeting was enjoyed for the purpose of sketching, The club feels that it has completed an altogether successful year. -Jt'i.mNNE BUSSERT fine hundred tttcntu one
