An instructor is shown teaching a group of boys about plumbing at North Carolina State 4-H Short Course in 1932. The black and white photograph was taken in the basement of a brick building. The instructor, wearing a tie, is pumping water at one of the two pumps and sinks in the building. His left hand rests on the top of the pump while his right hand is grasping the pump handle. The groups of boys watching him vary in age and they are wearing white shirt with 4-H emblems on the front pocket. Some of the boys are wearing ties. The young boy in the forefront of the picture is barefoot. He is learning against a table along the wall that has pump parts on top of it.
