Here at Redbank fifty-four of us future farmers are learning how to till the soil. At the first of the year, we had some disorder when Mr. Cunningham, our faculty ad- visor, went back into the service, but we still held our regu- lar monthly meetings and tried to carry on in his absence. Then in January a new teacher, Mr. Traister, came in to start the wheels turning. We consider this part of student activity particularly important, because this is how we expect to make our living when we graduate from high school. We are aware of the important role the American farmer plays in the world today. We will be ready to do cur share in the future. WALTER OVER SHOWS FLOSSY FERN'S GIRT TO TAKE ZND PREMIUM IN THE JR. YEARLING CLASS We had classroom study of agriculture, and then visited neighboring farms to see these principles in actual use. To test our ability as future farmers, each member had to raise a field of corn, rear a calf, or participate in some other agricultural project. This class is one we can't do without! Our officers are: Eugene Walls, presidentg Dean Krot- zer, vice-president: Otis Procious, secretaryq Ken Musser, treasurer: and Kermit Minich, watch dog. 'W W I fawgh, -I-2' 49

One warm October afternoon, we elemen- tary Van Goghs and Goyas Went out to paint Halloween designs on the windows of down- town business establishments. The results were good fwe thinkl. We had a lot of fun making scenery and helping with the make-up for the production of the plays that were given during the year. Art Class Procedures Put to A Test- Pfob-ably the m0St eUl0Yed Pfolect Qf OUT club was the decorating of the big Christmas Decorating For A Dance tree in the front hall. We didn't spend much time in class that day, but we certainly learned e the intricate procedure of tree-trimming. When the weather was favorable, Miss Ley, our club sponsor, took us outside to sketch. These trips were enjoyed by everyone, and some good pictures were the result. For almost every holiday we learned how to make appropriate favors and decorations. We studied home decorating, too, and learned how colors could make our homes more attrac- tive. The rules of good art are in evidence everywhere We turn. We even held an election that would sur- pass a national one. For a while we thought the Republicans would make it, but they didn't. Jane Shaffer was elected president, and Helen Kuhns. secretary-treasurer.

The hustle-bustle of the FHA was divided into two groups. The Junior FHA, made up of sopho mores, was lead by their faculty sponsor, Mrs. Dor- othy Slickg and their president, Hope Ortz. The Senior FHA, made up of junior and senior girls, and :ponsored by Mrs. Pauline Smith, was lead by the president, Helen Marshall. Both groups were busy all year with various piejects such as selling all-occasion cards, holdin! buffet suppers. hobby exhibits, skating parties, dance and game parties, and preparing cooking demonstra- tions. Then our long-awaited trip to the Farm Show at Harrisburg came. Some of the girls were privileged to speak over the radio there, giving a talk on mixers and roasters. FHA certainly added a spot of color to our life!
