October S, 1951 High Life York Gives Review Of Home Ec. Classes Senior High’s Home Economics Department offers many valuable experiences in preparation for par enthood or for further training of a professional nature. Miss Mary York, head of the Home Eco nomics Department, summarized some of the current activities of her department. The child development classes, under the direction of Miss York, are doing observations in the Kin dergarten here at Senior High School. The purpose of this study and observation is to study the values of heredity and environ ment in the development of per sonality. The classes are working on the project or unit of heredity and environment, and a debate and discussion group has pointed out that heredity and environment are different even for children in the same family. Such influences as playmates, music, toys, books, shelter, food, love, and the family play an important role in one’s personality development. Eye col or, hair, special talents, features, types of nervous systems have a, tremendous influence on an indi vidual from the standpoint of he redity. Classes of advanced home eco nomics students are studying fall fashions and designs. These stu dents are working with woolen ma terials and mercerized cottons in preparation for making skirts and blouses as their first clothing con struction problem for the semes ter. While students are observ ing and studying the clothing prob lem, they are learning pointers on how to buy intelligently, how to plan a balanced wardrobe, and how to deal with problems of a bud getary nature. Eighty girls have purchased col- ,orful plaid woolens and flannels for additions to the new fall fash ions parade. The first year classes are study ing foods from the standpoint of preserving and caring for seasonal foods. Preserving and freezing of fruits and vegetables have been demonstrated and practiced by many of the students taking the beginning course. Already the pan try shelf is stocked with pear hon ey, grape marmalade, and quince preserves. Further study in pre paring and freezing fruits and veg etables depends upon delivery of a new freezer refrigerator.

To some, a profit making organization in a public school would seem out of place, but not perhaps when they realize that the students themselves share in the profit. As you have prob ably guesed by now, this organiza tion is our school store which is sponsored by the student council. The profit, which goes to the coun cil, is spent for various school projects. The store is operated by the fol lowing three faculty members: Mr. Johnson of the Physics Depart ment, and Mr. Smith and Mr. Baker of the Physical-Education Depart ment. It is their responsibility to keep the stock and handle the mer chandise. To make an organization of this type successful, and to keep it that way, much effort is required. They must know which items to carry and the quantity needed to maintain an ample stock. Some of the many and various items that you can buy at the store are notebook paper, notebooks, pen cils, rulers, ink, small packages of Kleenex, typewriter paper, school stickers and pennants, and prac tically anything that the students need for their school work. The selling prices of the various items in the shop are in line with those of the downtown stores. Since the profits of this store go to wor thy school projects, the students should support this enterprise in every way possible.
