'i The 1941 Willamizzou VOCATIONAL AGRICULTURE Claude Ferguson President Warren qun Keith Peterson lst Vlce-PreSident 2nd Vice-President The vocational agriculture class has had a good year both from the financial viewpoint and enrollment. There were 78 boys enrolled this year with a project income of $3,017.44. The chapter purchased a popcorn machine in the fall and sold popcorn, peanuts, candy and pop at the football and basketball games. The chapter also has a baby beef project, which will be shown in Springfield, and a sheep project. Our chapter won first place in the judging contest held here April 11. The third annual Father-Son banquet was held May 12. We enter- tained the Home Economics girls January 16, and the first annual bann-warming was held March 27, with great success. Eugene Clingan won first place in the SCA public speaking contest at Cabool and represented this district at Springfield. Four teams were entered in the judging contest at Columbia and they won first place in the dairy subject matter contest. We have two State Farmers this year, Francis Pfister and Keith Peterson. The Willow Springs chapter took 65 ribbons and $83.00 in prize money at the West Plains Fair, and 23 ribbons at the Ava Parish Show. We consider this one of the most successful years the class has ever had.

The 1941 Willamizzou VOCATIONAL HOME ECONOMICS 1940-41 is the second year of Vocational Home Economics. Since the enrollment this year was more than double that of last year, the course was changed to include two classes in Home Economics I and one in Home Economics II with Home Economics 111 to be offered next year. A bus load of girls attended the District Rally at Thayer this year. Betty Light was the pep song leader for the program and Naomi Honeycutt was toastmistress at the luncheon. The first year Home Economics class exhibited the aprons ;and pot holders they had made for later use in the foods unit, in Hammerts Store win- dow, at their invitation. During the Thanksgiving vacation the Home Economics 11 class ex- hibited some very beautiful and useful articles they had made in House Furnish- ings unit in Harryts Variety window. The articles showed economy and ingenuity in the use of dyes, crayolas, etc. They included luncheon sets, tie-dyed, fiesta- dyed, done in crayon work or embroidery. They were made of feed sacks, sugar sacks, and new muslin. There were also chair sets and sofa pillows made of burlap and gunny sacks, plain and dyed; a burlap table runner stenciled With oil paints, a foot stool made of tin cans and covered with strips of five-strand braided rags. At Christmas the girls made Christmas cookies and candies and filled sacks to take home to their smaller brothers or sisters. Many vases were made from odd shaped glass jars marbled with oil paints. In addition to planning and serving the meal unit each class enjoyed serving one or more luncheons to the Board of Education. Many useful home projects were completedesuch as redecorating a girls room, preparing, planning and serving breakfasts or suppers for a week, re- covering furniture, rearranging furniture, making a garment, making over some- thing old, making what-nots, etc. Near the end of school we plan to have an exhibit showing our garments we have made. We will invite our mothers, teachers and other friends who will be entertained at tea. We will also entertain the F. F. A. boys in return for the good time they showed us.
