HOMEECTEACCHES DOMESTIC LIFE From baked beans to breakfasts, cooking in home eco- nomics class covers it all. The girls not only learn to prepare individual dishes, but whole meals as well. They learn what a balanced diet is and how to serve an attractive, balanced meal. Sewing begins with simple cottons, graduating to wool suits and fancy dresses. A Red Cross home nursing course, the care of the sick at home, home planning, and child care are some of the other subjects that are covered by this department under the instruction of Miss Helen Alexander and Miss Anne Arnold. Miss Alexander also taught a class in family living and advised the Future Homemakers of America. Miss Arnold advised the costume committee and the Viking Ladies.
