St. Mory's College W' YV VERNA CUNNINGHAM IDELLA BRADLEY Commercial More and more the importance of commercial subiects is expanding. The present war is greatly increasing the demand for persons with a knowledge of typing, shorthand, and bookkeeping. The flying fingers on a typewriter no longer are the skilled fingers of a few but the competent fingers of many. This typing ability can secure for the student a reliable course for future life, besides that, it forms a helpful knowledge for personal use. Other commercial subjects are off- ered that create for the student a widened knowledge of the business field. There is commercial law, which explains the functioning of business, bookkeeping, which instructs him in the effective and orderly manner ol filing and the actual keeping of books, shorthand, which gives him an entirely new and time-saving method for tak- ing dictation.

University of Chicago M.A. Columbia University Department student, because it enables him to express himself with clearness, exactness, and effectiveness. To those who have definite talent in written expression, a course in creative writing is open, while news writing is offered to the student who has a nose for news. The study of newspapers and actual reporting of news com- prise this course. Some students may choose rather the field of oral expression, and study public speaking and advanced public speaking. Or those who wish to know the mysteries of the stage take play production. This course includes instruction in acting technique, make-up, and the various tasks behind the stage, such as, lighting, scenery paint- ing, and arranging the set. CLARENCE ROSVALL B.E.

Stout Institute Head of Manual Arts Manual Arts To many, a Smith-Hughes course only means greasy hands, spoiled clothing, and unbearable noise, but a Smith-Hughes student knows that the course is preparing him for his life work by giving him a full two-year training in electricity, machine shop, pattern making, foundry, architectural or mechanical drawing. One of the various tasks of the Smith-Hughes class is the repairing of autos. This iob is excellent for the training of the future mechanics and grease monkeys. This year there has been a steady increase in the enrollment of Smith- Hughes classes because ofthe nation's demand for more skilled mechanics. The Smith-Hughes boys are really getting down to business in preparing themselves for the winning of this war to save democracy.
