/ modern Home &c. kitchen Just
climb a few flights Of stairs, and
there it will be dazzling before
your very eyes. Don't think it's
anything unusual if you have to
blink a few times because of its
brightness. There are six separate
unit kitchens which are enough for
a class Of about thirty girls. In
each of these units there is either
q gas or an electric stove Gnci-
dentally, the stoves have six speeds)
a lovely white chromium work tab
lie, and sink, which is in the CEN
ter of the table. They also
have a serving table with four
chairs of modernistic chromium in
each unit. Besides all this, there
is an electric towel dryer, a beau
tiful large Westinghouse frigidare,
big white roomy cupboards, and a
teachers desk and chair.
So much for the kitchen. Now
for the classes.
| Miss Cary's evening class has
had complete enrolment, and the
course is now drawing to a con-
clusion as the Christmas holidays
approach.
In the eighth grade, Inez Schlot-
feldt, and Dora Ward, Mary CHS
holm and Eveleyn Determan have
finished their articles for sewing.
In the ninth grade Il guess I'd
better not tell, it would spoil every
thing) they are making, well some
thing mysterious, I'll call it. You
mothers will find out later. And
mothers listen to this! Your girls
are going to learn to darn so now
they don't have any reason not to
darn those socks for you. Ahem,
girls, I just had to tell on you.
The seventh grade is busy pur-
ting that bothersome bias tape on
their aprons.
And last but not least, we shall
look in on the tenth grade. They
are kept busy hemming dish tow
els for the department. They will
soon initiate the kitchen. They are
going to start making candy and
cookies for Christmas. I guess I'll
make an appointment to drop in
about that time, how about it girls,
you wouldn't mind would you?
ART
I do hope you Senior high stu
dents won't hang up on me, but
you should see the Junior High
assembly. Miss Klobe's art classes
got together and did some really
fine work. They have put the
Christmas spirit in every corner
and crews of the room.
The lights are covered with huge
red and silver stars. On the black
board are three large posters. One
is replica of the 1889 tuberculosis
Christmas Seal. The other two
posters are Santa Claus scenes.
These posters are made of chalk.
Each window in the back of the
assembly is decorated with a large
wreath of evergreen tied with a
red bow. The tree Is one of the
most attractively decorated ones In
the school.
And so for their splendid work,
I take off my hat and bow to the
Junior High Art classes.
CLUBS
Last Monday night the G. A. A.
girls had a good turnout. They
are now learning the fundamentals
of the game of basketball. They
are not very skilled but if the will,
ingness to learn and enthusiasm
have anything to do with it, they
are learning fast. They are also
practicing free throws" Each
girl who makes six out of ten shots
gets her name on the chart. A
book of girls basketball rules was
put in the senior high assembly So
any girl who cares to may read =
The Point Box was placed in Miss
Wilson's room. Miss Ellis wishes
to announce to all girls to put their
points they made last summer or
fall in the box before Christmas
vacation.

cessful pancake supper Dec. IA.
