Five Rooms
Constructed
For Exhibit.

Five rooms for a modern house,
completely decorated and, furnished,
are on display at the county fair
as the exhibit from Central high
schools wood shop.
These rooms, reception room,
bathroom, kitchen, two bedrooms,
we're constructed by $50 students
under the direction of r. A. CheS-
nut. The exhibit was made pos
Sible through the cooperation of
valley merchants who not only gave
the space at the fair but contri-
buted the building materials, kitch-
en- and bathroom equipment, drap-
cries and the bedding and mat
treSseS.
Both the actual rooms and the
furniture were constructed by the
students down to the last detail,
even to wall decorations and fine
ornamentation for the individual
pieces of furniture.

terialS used in the walls for all
rooms except the kitchen which is
constructed from a Johns -Manville
material
Not only have the boys learned
the proper methods OF construction
but they have studied the principles
of modern furniture design, the re-
suits of this study being shown in
the furniture which they designed
as well as made.
Visitors to the fair will find this
display interesting not only from
the educational standpoint but be-
cause it offers suggestions for mod
ern home furnishing and decora-
ton.
The treatment of the reception
room is marked by originality in
its combination of wall materials
and its furnishings, the majority of
which are black in effective con-
trast to the rooms and which exem-
plify the best of modernistic design.
One bedroom has walls of Ma
sonite in the natural finish and for
this room, to make nice contrast
in color. the students have design
ed streamlined furniture in white
with accents of brown.
The other bedroom, finished in
Celotex, has mahogany furniture,
decorated with white panels, the
dressing table and combined chif-
fonier and wardrobe having pulls
of mahogany.
The kitchen features the latest
in electrical equipment, exhibited
by an El Centro firm, and the bath
room fixtures equally modern in
design, are also entered by an Ell
Centre firm.
These rooms were first construct
ed in the school shop, and dis
mantled, taken to the fair and as

Central high school has one of
the largest wood shops in the state
as may be easily imagined since it
is sufficiently large enough to house
a building within a building with
ease. The department. has the
largest percentage of pupils, in pro-
portion to total enrolment of any
school in the state, while the entire
building, Manual Arts, in which
this shop is located, has an en-
rollment of some 400 boys.
In building both the rooms and
the furniture, the factory method
of production was followed: for eX-
ample 25 boys or more took part in
the making of an individual piece
of furniture, giving them real ex-
perience in manufacturing.
