One of the highlights during a semester is when the girls prepare their first full course meal. This will prove an excellent foundation for future homes, , Sub-divided into three different courses, foods, sewing and child care, the Home Econo- mics Department this year provided practical training for 390 future homemakers. While foods classes learn how to balance diets and budgets, the child care students are kept busy learning and practicing various phases of home nursing and care of children. In beginning sewing classes, students toil to cut patterns and sew seams correctly. The advanced sewing class makes such items as suits, dresses, formals and sports wear. The home arts students learn home- making handicrafts such as knitting and cro- cheting. Page twenty-five

hop Teaches Boys Industrial GKnow-How, Many, many courses are offered at Warren but perhaps the various industrial arts courses are among the most interesting for Warren boys. In the several shops the boys may extri- cate their talents into whatever phase they are best suited.

Drafting I and II may be taken by boys of the tenth grade, and rna- chine shop, wood shop and printing may be taken by sophomores, juniors, or seniors. Me- chanical drafting may also be taken by juniors and seniors, but architectural drafting is made available only to seniors. This year 460 boys participated in practical application in different phases of shop work. Many of the boys undoubtedly have opened the door to their career and many also have probably discovered that their talent does not lie in this field.
