Social Science HE Social Science Department is one of the most important departments in the Burlington High School. Its chief aim is to train the students for better citizenship by giving them a fuller knowledge of the laws of our land, to develop cultur- al knowledge and to teach an appreciation of current events. A student is permitted to take three years of the sub- iect including one semester of Community Civics and one of an Introduc- tion to World History. The next three semesters include the European background of American History itself. The last lap in the course is a semester of Economics. Besides being very good instructors in their respective fields, many activities, including debate, declamation and the school paper, have benefited from their excellent tutelage. Mr. Tow, debate coach, and Mr. Vieg, faculty adviser for the school paper, have both done their share toward acquiring additional honors for the Burlington High School. There is probably no more popular course given in the high school. Another advantage is that its interest is not limited to any certain class of students, but is open to all those who .are interested. In future years the Social Science Course will probably be made compulsory, but until then it will never be in want of students wishing to better themselves by its study.

M ' Music Department of the Burlington High School has gained a distinguished reputation in past years through its fgfb excellent performances, and this year has continued its good and efficient Work. This could not have been so thoroughly accomplished if Ag TXVTQJA our capable instructors had not been so willing to co-operate with the students. Throughout the school year various Wind and string sections have rehearsed at least once a week. Miss Carder has worked vigorously with her students, training their voices and teaching them word pronunciation. The instrumental department is supervised by Mr. Anthony Abbanatt, assisted by Miss Dorothy Baumle, and the vocal department by Miss Lorane Carder, assisted by Miss Genevieve Lee. The purpose of the or- ganization of such a department is for a greater appreciation of music. The orchestra was presented in its very fine annual concert. As a result of this year's training it has been aided by the development of a strong string section. The band has played for all athletic games and has added much ,to its reputation as an outstanding high school band. A The vocal group has been greatly benefited by the free singing les- sons, which every' student interested may obtain. These lessons are given after school and have .added much to the success of the department. This group has again sponsored a very successful operetta. Page Twentyefour
