DOMESTIC SCIENCE DEPARTMENT Bread is the Staff of Life. OMESTIC SCIENCE was introduced iuto the Valparaiso Public Schools in the fall of 1912. No other subject taught has ever created as much interest or proved more beneficial to the student than Domestic Science. The Domestic Science work was started by Miss Bushell and is now being carried on under the auspices of Miss Mendenhall. In connection with the cook- ing, there are classes in Household Economics and Household ( Jhemis- try. House hold Economics is a study of food and its relation to the body and Household Chemistry is a study of the art of pi ' actical house- keeping and the chemistry of foods. A new phase of the work is the summer school, introduced last summer and the night school introduced in the early winter. The sum- mer school had an enrollment of about eighty, and at present there are about eighty attending the night school. There are classes on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday nights. The Monday night class is made up of girls that liave had some work izi the Domestic Science. The Tuesday night class is a class of High School boys. These boys are working along the line of camp cookery and are very enthusiastic. (Especially when it is time to eat). The Wednesday and Thursday night classes are made up of working girls. All of these classes are free to the people of Valparaiso. In the day classes, there are about ninety grade pupils and twenty-five High School pupils. As all must eat to live, why not learn to prepare what you must eat in a way that will secure a better and cheaper living! This is what Domestic Science teaches. Miss Mendenhall is a very capable teacher and beloved bv all her pupils; she is also greatlv interested in her work. ANNETTA COLLINS. O Q

THE SENIORS. (As seen by a Junior). ALKING about Seniors, There ' s nothing much to say; They just go around to parties And spend their time in play. They don ' t know how to study And do other things as well. How they ever pass is funny And more than I can tell. They surelj ' are a funny bunch, Supposed to know a lot. But all they know is how to lunch And also gad about. O A GENTLE REBUKE TO ABOVE JUNIOR. I thank you, my fine Junior, For my character expressed so well. But how you ever found this out I ' m sure I cannot tell. Could it have been a slumber story Which you heard your mama tell? Or was it a wild, fanciful dream Like Pussy In a Well? If your mama told you this. She surely was mistaken For when the SENIORS are at work, In work tliej- can ' t be beaten. But if it was a dream And dreams thus affect your head, Why, take my good advice — Eat less ere going to bed. No my little Junior (But how I hate to tease thee?) The Seniors have their share of work ' Tho thev seem to take it easv. 26 P
