32 » B IHE 1956 TATTLER Shoe Repairing L to r: Arvid Lundgrcn. Jack Harris. Our Driver Training course is n recent addition and many girls and boys are glad to have the chance to take it. Mr. Marks is trying his best to send out students who will keep up the good record of deaf driv-crs in the state. Mrs. Oraf has been our Home Ec. teacher the past Cwo years. Besides puling on style shows showing a variety of garments, from skirts and blouses to formals, the girls have done very nice embroidering and crochetting. The girls are also becoming eff-cient cooks nnd have added tasty bits to mnny of our parties. Printing will always be a good trade for deaf men and we are proud of many of our alumni who hold responsible positions in this field - teaching at other state schools, on big city dailies nnd in small print shops. Mr. Cordano and the boys put out this Tattler and Wisconsin Times and do the job work for the school. Mrs. Kastner's coun e in grooming helps the girls present a better appearance themselves and also help members of thir families. The art program is basically a creative process. Mr. Prevetti emphasizes the importance of art as a reative and emotional outlet at the lower level. Continuing through an awakening to the limitless ex- periences that art training uffords. and the under standing of relationship of design and color in the intermediate years some of our students in high school havoc developed their talent and understanding in art so that they further their training after graduation. Typing is another new course at our school. Mr. Wilber offers this course to the Juniors nnd Seniors. Both boys and girls arc happy to have a chance to learn to type nnd several hnvc become quite proficient. The boys who take advanced woodworking with Mr. Best have very nice displays of furniture each year, from smaller pieces to coffo tables, desks and chests of drawers, in modern. French Provincial and Period styles. In Crafts Mr. Marks provides work in leather, wood, metal, plastics and drawing. The younger boys in his classes learn to work together and gain acceptance by the group. Crafts provide an atmosphere of activity where joyful learning takes place, i'heso lK ya also have attractive displays. Our shoe-repairing class is the manliest of all but some of our alumni have won much success in this field.
