The rattle and bang ot jars and all the things on the cooker you Were supposed to know. The terrible time you had trying to learn the vitamins and proteins. But last ot all, the smell of burnt beans, potatoes, and corn when you Were doing your best to learn the hoW's and why's in cooking. The days you spent trying to knit squares for the Red Cross. Recall the terrible trial those thimbles were. And also all the strange markings on the patterns you had to learn to use before mak- ing anything. The tun everyone had on the day they brought small children to school to watch and care for. The day you worked real hard to do everything just right when your mothers came to school for tea.

il Industrial Art Remember . . . How you looked forward to the times when you had woodshop or mechanical drawing? lt was really fun to make all those whatnots and draw house plans. Then in high school you could make those chests of drawers that took such a lot of work and those beds you were proud to read about in the paper. You were awfully proud of those book cases that you made for 7 l your mother too. Clkbovel Mr. C. G, Sykes, Metal Shop, Related work. fAbovel Mr. f-lansuld's woodshop class set up another project, tBelowl Mr. George A. Hansuld, Mechanical Drawing, Woodshop. And of course you remember how proud you were of yourself when you handed in your bread boards and bookends in junior high. That certainly was a nice display, you felt, that you put in the downtown windows of the things you had completed so far during the year. fs nfttgt- 15

You also remember raising your FFA gilts for the club project. Remember fixing all those pitch forks, axes, malls and hammers for summer farm use, You certainly recall making those concrete hog troughs too, Remember the FFA basketball games with other towns. You can't help but remember going out to the different country schools showing those moving pictures and giving those speeches to improve community farming. Nurse As If You Could Forget . . . That time you played hookey by pretending there was an awful ache in your stomach. Remember the flu epidemic and the hour-long line, Waiting just to have a thermometer popped in your mouth. 1':lu'i- I7
