The aim in Home Economics course today is to train the school girl to homemaking activities so that she will be awake to her many responsibilities and be able to assume them. Xo longer, therefore, can “Cooking and Sewing” or “Sanitation and Hyftiene” be justified as a complete course offered in Home Economics. Home Eco-omics Courses offered include the spending and managerial aspects of the home, child development, home and community relationships, home building and furnishing, decorating, art and science, conservation of the health of the family, food selection, preparation and serving, selection care and construction of clothing. The Home Economics department of Troy High School is one of the best equipped in the county, as the Board of Education and the Civic Association have been very helpful to the Department, and this help has been appreciated by every one. The Board of Education has purchased blinds, cooking utensils, cans, glasses, silverware, two sets of irons, and six reference books, for the department this year. The girls have served meals and sold pop corn for various occasions, and the money has been spent on repairs for sewing machines, flag, dishes, and other equipment for the Department. The Civic Association has purchased enough dishes and silverware to serve complete dinner for two hundred and forty persons. The china is plain white and the glassware clear. The silver has the monogram of T. H. S. They also purchased 24 lockers for the sewing room. This has been a very successful and an enjoyable year for all the girls. page twenty-three

The courses taught this year are Animal Husbandry, F'arm Engineering, and Farm Shop. All students are carrying related projects. Some of the projects the boys are carrying are: Swine, Sheep, Records on Dairy herds, Baby Chicks, Bees, Strawberries, and records on laying flocks. Along with this, all Engineering boys are carrying a F'arm Flnginering Project. An Apple Judging team consisting of Leo Baker, Roger Clark, Guy White, and Paul Chase went to Columbus during Farmers’ Week to judge apples. They placed nineteenth out of a field of about forty teams. Paul Kinnen, a Vocational Boy, won seventh prize in the Ohio State Potato Show held during Farmers’ Week at Ohio State University. Four boys, Page Gordon, William Dixon, Dennis Hixon, and Guy White are keeping Farm Account Records in the contest sponsored by the Ohio-Pennsylvania Joint Stock Land Bank. Work is going along nicely in the Department, and an increased enrollment is anticipated for the coming school year. page twenty-five
