5 h i I Relationships in the area of Fine Arts vary slightly. The importance of the term Relationship in any music organization is self-evident. For there must be rapport between the individ- ual members of the band or chorus, and be- tween the organization as a whole and the conductor at the time of performance if there are to be results. In art, the relationship is largely between the artist and his medium. The potter must understand the nature of his clayj the painter, his paint. This, coupled with a feeling for environment, is the goal for which the artist strives. But the final product is derived from solitary effort. The art teacher, less a direct part of the total performance as such than the conductor, can only demonstrate and encourage by example. STUDENT TEACHER, MR. SPOSATO, gives a music lesson to MELODY SWIFT and DONNA WELLS, who are, incidentally, the two most advanced clarinetists in the area. RELATIONSHIPS IMPORTANT IN ENCOURAGED by MRS. RIEHL, vocal music teacher, ELAINE ELLIS, LUELLA SWEENEY, CANDEE KIRK, MARCIA DECARR and SUE BUMP try a bit of vocalizing. 22

Agriculture and Industrial Arts both play important roles in equip- ping the student for life in our area --Agriculture, because farming is, and has been, a way of life for many North Country people, and Industrial Arts because the demand for skilled workers in this area is growing. Agricultural courses include Ag Production and Management, Ag Mechanics, and Conservation. These train the future farmer to repair machinery, maintain livestock, and understand the importance of soil and water management. Industrial Arts courses include Comprehensive Shop, General Wood, General Metal, and General Elec- tricity. Thus, those students who major in Industrial Arts learn car- pentry, patternmaking, concrete form construction, furniture making, wood finishing, soft metal casting, sheet metal, forging and tempering, welding, auto mechanics, circuits, signal systems, heating devices, motors and generators, and elec- tronic devices. The Industrial Arts building is a recent addition, and new equipment is being added at a rapid rate. INDUSTRIAL ARTS AND AG IN DEMAND
