Girls enjoy Working together and preparing for the days when they will be cook- ing for their families. Insect collecting and the debate team are two more examples of ways of gaining practical experi- ence through student interests. Each year a student is chosen to visit the United Nations in New York where he may study this vital organ in action. The selection is made on the basis of citizenship, excellence in history class, and knowl- edge of the workings of the United Nations. Sharon Gordon.
