Driver education was designed to ac- quaint young drivers with the technical parts of an automobile. Students be- come familiar with state laws regarding driving and are also taught to observe safety rules and precautions at all times, Although the instructor may have sev- eral harrowing experiences through the year, his final reward is the knowledge that there are several more safe drivers on the road. Now listen carefully. There goes Blacky Carbon! William Matson

Home Economics Catherine Bartlett Mrs. Bartlett is the head of our home economics department. A girl taking this course is taught how to cook, sew, and do many of the other tasks required of a housewife. This course offers a fine opportunity for girls not interested in college or a busi- ness career. Homemaking gives the girls a chance to learn the fundamen- tals of cooking and sewing, which they will soon be needing. Agriculture -L Q- s e 5 A e B i QQ ,y x Ugh! You left out the salt. Agriculture is a course open for people who are particularly interested in farming. Because of the problems now facing the farmer, it is becoming more and more important that they be in the know. These future farmers learn how to prevent soil de- struction and erosion by such methods as crop rota- tion and contour plowing. The whole nation depends on the achievements of the farmer.
