Are Important My bodice is on upside down, 'fVVho gummed up my pitch fork are phrases that bring back mem- ories of homemaking and fine art departments. Will Rogers' homemaking department is respon- sible for events that range from sewing on a button to building homes for the future. Life gets risky and nerves jittery as the Women of tomorrow try experi- ments in personal development, their first bisc ' and uballoonl' dresses. L-X i X O V, Strike up the music, and notes of melody flovv. The roaring drums of the band, the singing strings of the orchestra, and the blending voices of the choir make up the music department. A dab of paint and a whish of the brush, and the art department begins to operate. Among the soiled paper, and cans of paint sit the artists who are often responsible for the art Work displayed in the halls. . - - vers: sftwfzwf . , ,.,. Z , .. M 'f t as: . t. s it .

As Thomas Jefferson so aptly stated in the Decla- ration of Independence, all men are entitled to Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happinessng and this is one of the reasons for Will Rogers' history depart- ment. By digging into the history of the World, or America, students find themselves better informed citizens. Mistakes and successes are compared and used in everyday life, and students recognize their freedoms and their responsibilities. Sophomores are required to take United States history, and juniors, 'world history. Other history courses offered include ancient and medieval, govern- ment and economics, Latin American and community and state, modern and senior World history. 'Yle Wk 9' ? 73. 5.81.2 M Q sf E..
