OPP01'llIlllfff65 HOME NURSING The lied Cross Home Nursing Course is one Wl1icl1 will prove lIlVL1lll1ll3lE' to any girl who has ever taken it. Nearly everv family at some time has an illness or 1111 injury, and the hurden and respoiisiliility of caring for the unfortuiiate mem- lier are lightened when someone is trained in the most recent and most efficient methods of Home Nursing. SEXVINC Another of the varied mi11or courses offered is sewing. which is not only educational but also very practical. The girls are taught to make at- tractive clothing, and frequently they are given opportunities to model their creations. This is just one of the many contributions which Olney has made for the future homemakers of America. CLERICAL COOPERATIVE COURSE Commercial students have an opportunity in 12B to choose a course in which they may eam money and receive practical experience in their field, While, at the same time, they are attending school. Under this plan, they work in pairs, each student alternating one week in school and 0116 week at work. Through this arrangement the student not only receives valuable work experi- ence, but gains it under the guidance of his teacher. ,, , ,,..', ,Q-gym fi 1, ff Wy --mb ,Y-

F 0 Sperm! Music Although the number of students taking the courses in Music here at Olney is small, the classes have remained stable throughout the years. In addition to Chorus I and II which are requirec subjects, classes in Theory and Practice, Harmony and Nfusic Literature are offered for those who plan to continue studying music after graduation. l - 1 DRIVER EDUCATION Driver training, a course initiated because of the increased demand for it by Olney stu- dents, was instituted quite recently. This course is one of the most popular electives offered. and it certainly provides the type of study needed to make good drivers. There are two cars avail- able which are used hy students for practice during the school day. JOURNALISM Many pupils in our school plan to emm- some phase of newspaper work after graduation. journalism offers them an opportunitv to learn the fundamentals of ncwswriting.

From every field-engineering, medicine, col- lege teaching-we get word of the successes of these young men and women. Many of our scholarship winners have later been granted fellowships for advanced study. It is to Miss Irene Neumann, our College Guidance Counselor, that we owe our thanks for this success. For the past twenty-fire years she has helped us prepare for scholarships, choose the right colleges and the right courses.
