A Lesson in Grooming

When we popped into-the Nelson Intermediate School recently, we found home science mistress, Mr W. J. Ratcliffe, supervising: three girls of a special class in the art of personal grooming - a branch of the homecraft course. The girls learned how to set their hair, make and apply face packs, to manicure their nails and to maintain a good posture. While there, we also watched Raelyn Griffith and Anne Sutton serve a six-course meal they had cooked, to masters, Messrs R. J. Carter and A. D. Hoather. (below left)
