SHORTHAND is easy , provided you like to work and have a desire to become one of the im- portant Link sin an efficient office. The oppatunities are m any for the one who dedicates himself to becoming a means of business communication. Whose responsibility is it for the proper com- pletion of income reports? Through the study of BOOKKEEPING it is found that the taxpayer bears the burden of proof. In order to prove his figures a systematic bookkeeping process must be followed. A short course in personal income tax together with stress on accuracy and neatness makes the tax report much easier to fill out. The application of various skills learned in TYPEWRITING, SHORTHAND, SECRETARIAL PRACTICE, BOOKKEEPING, and JUNIOR BUSINESS gives the student an opportunity to actually put them in use and see how these various skills help them do a task which is well done.

Boys, it's comparatively easy: merely tap the mallet a little harder instead of so lightly and your design will come out beautifully. Words such as these, or similar ones, were often heard in the INDUSTRIAL ARTS room during freshman and senior classes. Some may look upon this subject as a snap course but if they ever take it they will find out differently. Much skill and techinque must be possessed by an individual before he can accomplish such feats as making a desk for Mom, or maybe a hope chest for his sweetheart, or maybe even a bed for himself. In the Industrial Arts course many fields are covered such as leather craft, acetylene welding, woodwork, plastics, engraving, auto mechanics, etching of metal discs and even others. These many projects are completed with great pride and effort on the boys' part. These freshman home ec. girls admire their work, after they finish decorating for Christmas.
