The industrial arts department. which consists of auto mechanics, woodwork, machine shop, mechanical drawing, and printing, is essential to every school. Since many of the in- dustrial arts students end their formal education with high school, these cours- es form a basis for the students' ca- reers. Through use of the most mod- ern equipment and techniques, the 'shop students soon become proficient in the use of wood, electrical equip- ment, and printing devices. Each boy strives to improve his work and to leam more about each field in indus- trial arts so that when he begins his life in the community, he knows how he wishes to use his skills. With the training they received at Po-Hi, the industrial arts students find little trou- ble adapting to the tempo of the com- munity.
