Here, imaginative ideas can actually take form as pupils learn new skills and gain valuable experience at the same time. Many fields are open to the students: Bud- ding artists are taught the fundamentals of art and design; future homemakers can learn the secrets of preparing a good meal, the intricacies of sewing, and methods of keeping an attractive house; and students wishing to gain insight into human relationships may take the Modern Living course. Boys who take Industrial Arts learn diverse skills. They are able to put these attributes into practical use in the auto, electric, ma- chine, metal, and woodwork shops while being taught the mechanics of specialized tools and power machinery. In this department, headed by Mr. Kermit Whitehead, the foundations for a useful and successful life are formed. Edward Taylor Trenton State, B.S.; Montclair State, M.A.
