Each morning they have an oral English class, which is carried on by parliamentary procedure. They have made anthologies, in which were twenty-four poems. The Homemaking girls have learned to cook and sew. They’ll make good wives. The “AG” boys have learned to use many new tools, recently purchased by the Ag department. They must be handy to have around the house. 29

We’ve had a profitable and enjoyable year. “Ups” and “Downs”—Yes, but “Flying over the Hump” is common these days, and we hope we’ve arrived. We’ve learned about our great state and the vast resources of our glorious country. Castle life of the Middle Ages was interesting and we rode with the knights of old. We also know a little bit about how our country came to be. Forming a club and electing officers has given us valuable ex- perience. We can make proper introductions and carry on intelligent telephone conversations. Call us up sometime! 31
