BOYS' HOME ECONOMICS Hllltt HIUNUMIES HNH IIHHltItIH The Home Economics Department this year included both girls and boys. They learned how to prepare new and tempt- ing foods, and how to sew on buttons and mend socks. Those tempting odors, which filled the halls between lO:OO and 11:30 during the winter months, came from the kitchen -food being prepared for cafeteria. The school cafeteria was operated by the home economics department, under the supervision of Miss Kelly.

lIUMMtHlIHl Ill When someone says, Commercial Department, we im- mediately think of Miss Clingaman, the shorthand, and typ- ing classes. Mount Gilead has a good commercial depart- ment. Of the fifty-four students taking typing, approximately twelve are taking it for personal use only, and the remainder expect to use it vocationally. Other things besides shorthand, bookkeeping, and typing go into the commercial work. Ten junior and senior girls have worked in Mr. Farrar's office this year, adding prac- tical experience to the class knowledge. Several others have acted as personal secretaries for teachers, doing typing and mimeographing. Members of the Gong staff have done the typing and mimeographing neces- sary for the publication of the Gong. Twenty students from the typing classes helped in two draft registrations and in the sugar-rationing registrations. Graduates from our commercial department are installed. in good positions. Beginners are taught the fundamentals of commercial work. lt is entirely up to the individual to make good. Grades in both typing and shorthand are based on the speed and A TYPICAL TYPING CLASS accuracy of one student compared with the others, so the grades also serve as a rating scale on that phase of their work.
