:dx'lr9 en ; Departments MR. HARMON CONFERRING WITH STUDENTS It is generally believed that students, if they are to get the most possible out of their school work, should know the objective and purposes of courses of study just the same as do the teachers. With the belief that the scholastic phase of school life should be included in the book to make it a record of the year, summaries of these objectives, as well of some of the things accomplished this year by the various depart' ments have been added. The $126,000 addition to the building, which provides a gymnasium and eight more class rooms has given facilities for more extensive work than formerly, in many departments. Among these are, science, art, auto-mechanics and mechanical drawing. The removal of these to the new part of the building has allowed more space and improvements in the old part of the building for the domestic science and journalism departments. BOOKKEEPING Bookkeeping takes one into the atmosphere of business from the standpoint of the executive. To be an intelligent consumer, one must know something of the prob' lems of the executive. In learning to keep btx ks neatly, accurately, and with g xxJ judgment, one uiv derstands the value of having all information about a business systematically recorded and always at hand. The pupil becomes aware of the necessity of conducting his own business affairs in a businesslike manner correctly, thoroughly, and on time. From the great fund of information in grouped transactions, financial statements, operating costs and income, most pupils get a new idea of the purpose of keeping books. Part of the time is devoted to the study of business science which deals with the major fields of business in general. It takes up the growth of each kind of business, the present development of that business in our community, and the dc- mand for, and requirements of the different jobs in each field. Very important is the ability, attitude, and adaptability of the individual in chtxjsing his job. He must be happy in his work, it must allow him to develop men' tally, physically, and socially and to be of service to the community. It is necessary that one approach his choice of a job with intelligence for a public business or for the home where efficiency is desired. 1931 Twenty
