Home Economics HS.. lVl.A. lleallh Home Economics Allendrmce Cafeleria Homemaklng Health Home economics classes have been estab- lished for both the cooking and the sewing departments. In each ease, the latest home- making methods are used in an effort to operate the home efficiently. By lecture, discussion, demonstration, and movies, students obtain a better and more vivid means of self-expression in creative work. The sewing department consists not only of actual garment construction but also of the study of the way to wear clothes to better ad- vantage. Nutrition, canning, and food preserva- tion, have been emphasized especially with reference to rationing and present shortages. The conservative but nutritional use of food and the construction of made-over garments teach students the necessity and practicability of economical use of materials. Although the homemaking department is taught from a practical and technical point of view, its major aim is the encouragement of homemaking as a career and the teaching of applicable, helpful fundamentals pertaining to all phases of the home. w lo enlerlain-silver, china, glassware, and conversalion: all play a part. This year the New York State liducation Department has mandated a health course as a requirement for graduation. Communicable diseases, First Aid, and mental hygiene are studied by sophomores, juniors, and seniors with classes meeting twice each month during Friday's Activities Period. The student undergoes necessary physical and mental adjustments through medical care. A physical examination is given each student every year, and necessary adjustments reported to the parents. An audiometer test is also given each student. The Health Department has adapted itself to the war program by promoting physical fit- ness and First Aid courses. A Surgical Supplies Corps also aids by making numerous surgical dressings. A Junior Bed Cross Convalescent Loan Closet is available to those students who have a long period of convalescence. A bed table, a six-way pillow, and a radio are some of the items included in the closet. When war has called so many doctors and nurses into service, students have realized the necessity for physical well-being and have risen to the situation. Now, as nerer before, Ille emphasis is on good lleallll
