Girls acquired essential skills in practical home economics classes Behind the doors of the Home Eco- nomic rooms girls are busily engaged in various tasks which range from cleaning a sink to arranging flowers to creating a gown. In the foods courses girls not only learn how to prepare food but also learn how to shop for it. Each cook leams that having the right utensils and keeping them in condition is part of the secret of a delicious meal. Flower arranging, good housekeep- ing, home nursing, and child care are all taught in the living in the home course. These skills help make the home more pleasant and a safer place. Clothing is not only functional but it often influences a personality. There- fore, a knowledge of lines, fabric and color are stressed in the clothing courses. O , N 5 , f .
