Novel Departure I'm the Cincinnati
High school,
EnniI,rn,

CINCINNATI enquirer
One OF the most unique features In eAuca-
ton that has ever been tried In this city IS
a cheap cooking class for boys. which was
started at Hughes high school last week
Seven young gentlemen ont Of an enroll
ment Of ten were present and were initiated
by Miss Huh. the teacher, into the first
mysteries Of that science which their sis
tiers have hitherto claimed al their almost
exclusive prerogative.
The class assembled in the cooking rooms
in the basement OF Hughes and PUT on the
regulation cap and apron. Then Miss Hull.
In a ten minute talk proceeded to explain
20 them the simpler processes Of chemistry
which are involved in the art Of cooking
After this few practical Illustrations
were given OF the cooking which they were
20 perform.
4 row Of gas burners were lighted. and
each boy was furnished with an egg and
egg p0acher. The resulting poached eggs
would have done credit 10 the cafe OF any
Of the swell restaurants or hotels. Pota-
Toes were then started roasting and bread
was toasted.
The value OF bread crumbs and thelr
proper preparation and preservation were
then elacidated 70 the young students and
a whole 3arful was prepared by them and
set aside for the next recitation.
The menu thus prepared VAS served on
BILE by the boys. and they proceeded 30 re-
gale themselves on the fruits of their work.
The skill displayed by the boys was very
noticeable. there being no accident save a
burned finger sustained by Master Shaw IN
