Junior - Senior
Classes at C. H. S .
We, the junior and senior Home
Economics class of the Covington
High School, haw been study
ing the arrangement, cost, pattern,
and necessary ftnnishings of a
home.
A small number of the members
of ou rclass knew something about
home furnishings. However, their
knowledge was limited.
I’m sure since we have been
studying the Rirnituxp and its
placement in each room, that each
of us girls have looked around
our homes and asked, “Is my bed
room carefully and wisely plan
ned?” or “Where should I place
this piece of furniture?” Many of
us will soon be working whole
heartedly toward making our
homes more attractive, and a more
desirable place in which to live.
If we should decide to buy new
furniture, we should take in con
sideration the cost, make, pattern,
color, and ask ourselves if the de
sign we choose corresponds to our
personality.
A person fails to acknowledge the
effect of lights in making a home
attractive. Direct and indirect
lighting are used to relieve eye
strain, an dt osoften the light,
Soft lights make a room very de
sirable looking.
As you know, your house should
harmonize in every respect. You
do not need an Interior Decorator
for this if you know a few of the
simple facts that Home Manage
ment teaches.
the the type of furniture you
prefer, but the rest of the room
should be in keping with that type.
This is even true to the type of
glassware and silver which should
repeat the type of furnishings in
the dining r<jom.
The type of bedroom you have
should reflect your own personali
ty. It can be modern or old fash
ioned, tailored or fancy, and sim
ple or elaborate. Any type you
have should be comfortable and
pleasant to look at.
Now for the kitchen, which is
probably the most important room
in the house. Here the housewife
spends most of her time so this
room should indeed be pleasant
and restful. Here is where most
of the work is done in preparing
meals. This is where the labor
| saving devices come in. Simple
things such as can openers, egg
beaters, lemon squeezers, and
other “taken-for-granted” gad
gets which we use every day.
These are just a few of the
many things we have discussed and
profited by. Later we are going to
use our knowledge of home man
agement when we decorate our
Home Economics Department.

growth and expansion supplanting
the old with the new.
Twenty years ago a pretty lit
tie town with unpaved streets
greeted us. The stores and shops
were characteristic of those found
in any small town. The old mule
car had just passed out of exis
tence. Signs of southern aristoc
racy could be seen in many old
colonial homes.
Through efficient leadership
and with outstanding citizens who
have civic interest and pride at
heart, Covington has become a
progressive and thriving little me
tropolis. Brightly colored neon
signs and modern stores have kept
pa ce with the times. Many new
faces and names have mingled
wR hthose that for generations
have been integral factors in civ
ic life. Building is in evidence
everywhere. New homes have ap
pealed. Fresh paint has brought
new beauty to the old colonial
homes, thus lending a touch of
prosperity.
With growth, we too, are better
equipped to give service of the
highest type at reasonable prices.
Visit us and be convinced.
