TO the Honorable Board Of Public

/ tlemen-Some little while ago Miss
! Aileen Ynieslra. one OF the principals
/ of this city. volunteered to instruct at
the high school after school hours
twice Cor three times) weekly a c'ass
In elementary domestic science, using
the equipment already installed and
with no cost 10 the board beyond that
OF gas, the materials necessary to be
furnished by the students. An investi-
cation shows that ffty-five of the
girls in the high school. about so per
cent of the enrolment of girls there,
would be glad of the opportunity to
take such a course. I believe the
course should be limited to juniors and
seniors this first year, nineteen OF
whom have signed for it, but there are
sixteen sophomores and twenty fresh
men on the waiting list who would be
glad to take the work next year if
they cannot get it this year because
of lack of opportunity.
THE faculty all expressed them
-T-F-.
hoping this need could be met in this
way, and I sincerely trust you will au-
thorize us to put the course in on these
terms.
VERY sincerely yours,
"B. B. LANE,
Principal Pensacola High School"
