Among the many things which are taught to the students are cooking sew- ing and how to keep a budget of her expenses in maintaining a home in good order. The students have several days in which they are in the classroom and the remainder of the week they spend in the kitchen where they are given instructions by Mrs, Heaton, our Homemaking teach- er, on how to prepare different kinds of foods. They also spend time with the sewing machines making clothes or items for the home. Left to right: Carmen Barja and Geraldine Anton are 1-M f 4 busily preparing some cookies for the oven.
