One was for begin- ners, and the other was for advanced students. The groups were small and this gave the members an opportunity to learn how to sew, crochet, and knit. In the advanced group the girls worked on projects which they had brought from home. They turned out beautiful things. Some of their projects were afgans, sweat- ers, and socks. Several of the girls em- broidered designs on hand towels, pillow eases, and bureau sets. At the end of the year every member has made several things that she can use in the future.

BOYS' COUKING CL UB The Boys' Cooking Club is under the guidance of our Home Economics teacher, Miss Chalfant. This is the second year for the club at Pennridge High School. The club meets once a week, and only boys may join. All the fellows have a chance to make tempting foods, and everything they make, they must eat. Some of the foods the boys cooked this year are muffins, spaghetti and meatballs, a cream cheese dressing, and French toast. The boys say cooking is fun, and eating is even more fun. FUTURE HOZUEAMKERS The purpose of the club is to promote an appreciation of the joys and satisfac- tion of homemaking. Under the super- vision of their adviser, Miss Chalfant, the club members participated in various activities. At the beginning of the year they had an impressive initiation service, they made stuffed animals, and at Christ- mas time had the pleasure of making and serving light refreshments to the Golden Age Club. The club entertained guest speakers on good grooming and flower arrangements. Miss Jenkins from Pennsylvania Power and Light Company gave a demonstra- tion on suggestions for parties. They also had films on family living and foods. 152 Remember, boys, don't eat your peas with the knife These chocolate-covered popcorn drop cookies are bound to be scrumptiousf,
