GIRLS At GARFIELD
CAN AUTUMN FRUIT
FOR LUNCH ROOMS
Students of Domestic Sci
ence Get Experience on
Preparing Goods and Meals
in Large Quantities.

The course Of training in the voca-
tional subjects will be greatly broad
ened in the Garfield school this wear,
according to Principal n. G. Heironi-
mus.
Heretofore the course has included
only two hours week in either man.
ual training or domestic science. This
year an industrial course has been
added which gives five hours addition
al work each week in wood work,
printing, sewing and cooking. This
combined with the two hours prevfs
ously given, provides seven hours of
vocational work for each student elect
ing these courses.
Voyle Hybarger has charge of the
boys manual training work, and is as
sisted by F. D. Walker, who teaches
wood work and printing. The sewing
and cooking classes are under the su-
pervisiOn of Miss Bertha A. Larsh.
Girls Can Fruit.
Eighth grade girls under Miss Larsh
are canning large quantities of vege-
tables and fruit to be used in the
school lunch room during the winter
months. According to the teachers
this work will prove much more bene-
ficial than the usual laboratory work
that is given in domestic science
courses, where each pupil prepares
only a small quantity. The sale of
the material canned now, in the lunch
room later on will help greatly to
meet the expense of the laboratory
work.
The cooking classes are given
further practical experience in prepar-
ing and serving the food in the lunch
room. Many pupils avail themselves
of the opportunity to eat their noon
lunch in the school building during the
winter months. A small charge is
made for the various dishes served,
the average charge being about 3
cents, and very tempting lunch can
be obtained for from 10 to Is cents
One group of girls is assigned each
day to wash the dishes and for this
service they receive their lunch free
In the sewing classes in the new in
dustrial course the girls are started at
once to make pillow cases, aprons and
articles of clothing.
The regular wood work in the boys
department has not been started yet,
as all the equipment has not been re-
c"ived, but the boys are working on
material to be used later on.

The Second Austrian corps head
quarters are at Vienna, while the Sixth

with great success according to an
official announcement made by the
war office today Fighting has beer
heard around Tefmonde. Both sides
are using artillery and the guns have
been booming day and night since
late Wednesday.
The Germans attempted to cross the
river near Termonde after the Bel
gfans had destroyed the bridge and
were met with withering fire that
forced them to fall back
German Strength.
The Germans are said now to have
about 100000 men in Belgium Their
aviators have been very active during
the last twenty-four hours. Three
Taube machines have been sighted
from the Antwerp forts during that
time, leading to reports that the Ger
mans were planning an attack on the
city, but the war office statement re-
assured the people, declaring that
there was no danger of lombard
ment while the Belgian army stayed
in the field.
1t is permitted only to state that the
Germans are apparently anxious to
drive the Belgian army into Antwerp
and are fortifying positions west OF
Brussels and between that city and
Louvain.
This may indicate that an English
army, cooperating with the Belgians
is expected to strike the Germans
The report that there were 10000

that they have sent reinforcements to
