Leaving Jr. High

One of my favorite classes in Jr. High was Home Economics. I loved cooking and sewing. I thought that I would like to be a Home Economics teacher. One day in the Spring before we graduated the Principal Mr. Hulet came to our class and said that he had a presentation. He called me up to front of the class and presented me with a statue for being an outstanding Home Economics student sponsered by Crisco. I suppose my teacher had nominated me. I don’t know what kind of qualifications were required but I guess I fit. I was so surprised and I felt very important. That was the high light of Jr. High. Yeah!
