W ' QQWQ JQUR to To mi L With the rapidly increasing need for highly edu- cated men and vvomenilin the fields of finance, advertising, accounting, etc., a well-rounded busi- ness curriculum is a necessity in all high schools. Keeping this in mind, the AHS business de- partment offers courses in Typing, Bookkeeping, Shorthand, Business English, Commercial Law, and Junior Business Training. Students taking these courses get an insight of the business world. Since most of the business courses are skill courses, the only common technique in a field of this kind would be that of practice. Skill is ob- tained by practice in such courses as typing and shorthand. Competition in these skill courses is gained at the interscholastic League meets. Speed tests, timed dictation, and accuracy help determine the winner. Some of th Aldine students usually place in this highly competitive activity, which perhaps proves the strength ot Aldine's business courses.
