STUDENTS ACQUIRE HABITS OF ACCURACY Just across the hall from the algebra classroom is the new commercial room, one of the most active centers in school. Miss Marshall has already organized an efficient commercial course for juniors and seniors. The hasty click, click of the typewriter keys informed the school that the seniors were not only practicing for mastery but also typing material for other departments. To see that modern oxfice methods were workable, the Junior Business Training students made a number of field trips to local places of business. In the algebra classroom, Miss Dickinson advised the freshmen and sophomores, To keep out of my Algebra Club, prepare your daily assign- ments, Our brilliant math instructor, with her keen sense of humor, made the solution of unknowns and square roots never-to-be-forgotten experiences. Miss Marker, Mr. Wylie's affable secretary, who spent many minutes everyday preparing detention slips, absentee lists, and club notices, also served as typist, telephone operator, and representative of the Lost and Found Department.

Miss Gregg and Mr. Rushworth discuss the program for the next Culture CIub's dancing lesson. Talented artists complete their Mountaineer Contest Posters. Patrons of Art and Music . FINE ART OPEN TO GIFTED STUDENTS No modern high school can produce leaders for a community without includ- ing courses in the training and apprecia- tion of art and music. Therefore, in Ligonier, Miss Gregg assisted those stud- ents who included art in their schedules to make' attractive posters, desigln and produce the effective old English back- ground for the carolers in the Christmas program, and cut linoleum blocks for the New Fort. Freshmen also enjoyed con- structing model towns in Miss Gregg's civics classes. The entire student assembly joined in singing There's a Long, Long Trail A-Winding, as enthusiastic Mr. Rushworth, the music instructor, announc- ed: 'tNow altogether! Boys whistle, and girls hum. Our Maestr0's schedule was a busy one with his sophomore English class, individual music lessons, band, orchestra, and swing band rehearsals. Page Eighteen
