Much interesting and practical work is done in the class and it seems as though more than eight girls from. the en-| tire senior class should be taking up | To. most of the girls this subject| should be as important a' subject as the most important -one in the whole | curricglum, and yet it doés not seem up. without any knowledge of foods or the cooking of foods. : The domestic science class takes up the study of foods, the preparation of various dishes, the planning, pre-} paration and serving of wmeals, and’ also many other useful things. Only simple dishes, such as are pr pared in the average American home,! are prepared in this class. Frequent- ly certain members of the class are assigned to make ad serve a meal to the remainder of the class. They are taught not only to prepare it well, but also how to work that. time and energy may be saved as much as pos- sible. Preserving is also ‘studied;’ giving | each member a thorough understand- ing of every side of préserving. . This brief cutline 'of only a part of the work done the domestic science class should“interest some of the;igirls so that:they will feel ‘they would, really like: to join this class next year. . - STUYVESANT’S WOODEN WALL Barricade- Against English Colonists Gave Name té'the Famous Street | It there hml‘\!m[ been war between Hollang ‘and.
