NQQRYGS. . U Y7' 1 Dmwmg bllflkeclwmal Miss NELL E. SAMPSON Ari Fine and Industrial Arts THE ART classes, instructed by Miss Nell f Sampson, have made posters for all enter- tainments at Chrisman and painted scenery for the operetta and the minstrel show. Miss Samp- son is sponsor of the Art Club and of the National Art Honor Society. The high school orchestra under the capable leadership of Miss Jessie Smith, has taken an ac- tive part in the life of the school. Miss Smith also directs the Girls' Chorus and the Glee Club. Ably trained by Mr. Edward Schowengerdt, the Boys' Chorus has furnished several well- irendered numbers for assembly programs this year. Mr. L. E. Morris, our mechanical drawing teacher, is well versed in the art, and the classes have made marked progress under his leadership. Mechanical drawing is not only interesting, but it is also useful in later life if one plans to be a con- tractor or blue-print reader. P The manual training classes, under the direc- tion of Mr. Henry Wininger, have made many useful things. The course teaches one to use his mind and hands to the best of his ability.
