GLORIA PAGE, B.S., homemaking, clothing, Y-Teens adviser Girls, who someday hope to have a well- run home and well-behaved children, become interested in the home economics department. Four courses are available to all girls and a few boys. They are: homemaking, clothing, foods and cafeteria cooking. In a homemaking class, students learn child care, good grooming and personal health. They also discuss such things as color schemes, china and silver patterns. Some girls become fine seamstresses in the beginning and advanced clothing classes. They make many of their own clothes. Foods classes prepare the girls for menu planning and food preparation. The test of their culinary skills is in the eating. Students taking cafeteria cooking actually help with the preparation of the foods served in our cafeteria each noon. They, too, learn by doing. .. , . I I, In an advanced clothing dass, Donna Kirkum pins in Q hem in U Carolyn Jones, Jackie Simpson, Betty Reaves and Estell Gorman skirt that Pat Hibbert has made.
