DOMESTIC SCIENCE Classes in Home Economics began in September with nine girls enrolled. Second semester another girl join- ed the class, making seven in the class, asone of the girls had moved from Simla, and two of the girls had academic subjects to take during second semester, in- stead of sewing. The first duties for the girls were to learn where each utensil was kept, and to keep their class room in perfect order. Next, special duties were assigned to each girl, these duties changing every week in order that the girls have a chance at all the monitor duties. Rules of class conduct, of cleanliness and neatness had to be understood by each member of the classy then the girls were ready for more pleasant tasks. The girls cams to classesin cooking with pleasure and anticipation as the result of their work were serv ed at the end of each period. The course includes the study of foods, their preparation. and the serving of balanced meals. An earnesteffortis madeto givepractical menus, using materials and recipes that may be used in the average home. Note books were kept throughout the year and contained recipes, records of lectures givenby the instructor, and special work done by the girls. Each group of girls planned, prepared, and served a breakfast, a luncheon, and a dinner. The class served no formal banquets this year, but the basketball and football teams of Limon, Hugo, and Simla were served informal suppers. At Christmas time the annual all-school party was given, for which the girls prepared and served the re- freshments. The girls had an Apple Well booth for the school carnival, and they expect to assist with prepara- tions for menu served at the Juuior banquet given in honor of the Seniors. Second Semester new rules and use of different ma- terials had to be learned before the girls were ready to sew. The use of the sewing machine, the thimble, and various stitches were problems of this semester's work. Then came the problems of undergarments, aprons, blouses. dresses, and fancy work. Designing, cutting. and fitting of garments are included in the course, as well as discussion of material suitable for different sea- sons, occasions, and localities. Another phrase ofthe class work is the proper care and operation of a sewing machine.
