ROLAND In the Marts of Trade South's Commercial Department includes a large group of teachers who have been training many Rebels from their first semester here in the mysteries of operating a typewriter and learning the meaning of strange hieroglyphics called shorthand characters. Opportunities are given all pupils to gain practical experience in this field by doing office and school work. The law course offered has proved exceptionally popular with boys and with a few girls, who have visions of some day becoming second Darrows. School publications, the newspaper and annual, have proved invaluable for the opportunity given literary-minded scribes to display and to develop their talents. Business men and women oflthe future are formulating their plans of attack on the outside money world through special commercial courses. The majority of stenographers of tomorrow will be women, and the impor- tance of the part they are to play is capitalized upon by far-seeing teachers and sponsors. From this department, therefore, will emerge a large percentage of those composing the business world of tomorrow. A balance is obtained in the commercial department between the boys and girls by the number of boys enrolled in the salesmanship classes. This is a novel unit of study and has a large popularity although it is one of the very newest courses. Bookkeeping and accounting enable any student to qualify for a good position after leaving high school. Page Eleven
