Cooperative Occupational Education One of the newest courses in Nevada High School is C. 0. E. It was first brought to Nevada as an idea in the mind of Mr. Jones when he began serving as Super- intendent of Schools in 1947. In the summer of 1948, he secured L. B. Kesterton to come to Nevada as Coordinator to initiate the Cooperative Vocational Training program, then known as Diversified Occupations. In the past year it united with the state program of Distributive Educa- tion and it became known as C. O. E., which stands for Cooperative Occupational Education. A club was organized the first year and has been active each of the seven years, having social parties, employer- employee banquets and civic projects. The C. O. E. Club is open to all members of the program and has varied in size from thirty-nine the first year to fifty-six.

The aim of developing competent, aggressive agricultural leaders has been realized under the leadership of the advisor, Mr. A. L. Mahaffey. Over a period of sixteen years, Nevada's chapter has had one of the outstanding clubs in the state with fourteen boys becoming State Farmers. This is an award second only to the American Farmer Award, the highest recognition that can be achieved by any member. The chapter's fine record is also shown in the many different awards received in field crops, farm shop, and animal judging contests throughout the district and state. With fifty-seven members this year, the Nevada chapter of the Future Farmers of America is looking ahead to bigger and better horizons in the iield of agri- culture. 42.
