To the question, Can manual
training, be taught in the
schools of Baca County,,
Miss Belle Raymond writes in
the affirmative, as follows:
In answer to this question |
will say yes, in a limited form.
The classes may be conducted on
Friday afternoons after recess,
instead of the old form which
has been the custom in some
schools for many years, of spell
ing or Of cipheringdown. This
will greatly arouse the interest
of the pupils and create enthusi-
asm and develop their love for
neatness of form and beauty.
