Messrs. A. M. Russ, A. W.
Reynolds, P. S. Kendrick and
j W. O. Willingham went to
Throckmorton Monday to look
over the vocational course in
the public school there. They
found that domestic science,
domestic art, shop work and
manual drawing are all taught
in that school, and that the
pupils and teachers are all very
enthusiastic over this kind of
work.
The only vocational studies
we have in our school are book-
keeping and typewriting. The
interest that the pupils take in
this work is illustrated by the
fact that the bookkeeping class
is full and running over, even
though pupils of only the 10th
an^l 11th grades are allowed to
take it. Also, those studentR
•nterested in typewriting went
to the expense of buying the
typewriter in order that they
might take this course. W«> feel
| sure that the same interest
would be taken in other voca-
tional studies.

tained Monday evening with a
very pretty bridge party com-
plimentary to her friend, Miss
