Times have changed, thank heaven. Today we find high schools all over the country, including your own high school, learning by doing.

Here the boys are taught to turn out articles ranging from lightweight canoes to heavy duty lathes. In another corner of the basement the commercial art lads and lassies originate most of the flashy posters you see around school. The other half of the basement houses

the home economics department, where with modern equipment the girls produce a frock, a full course dinner, or a non-skid roast. Across the street in the Red Cross build- ing, home hygiene teaches the girls such homely things as how to make a bed. Back to school again, we visit the gen- eral science department, Where natural Won- ders are realistically portrayed by iilms. On the second floor aspiring secretar- ies are instructed in the mystic art of using all ten iingers to type, as well as in the use of more complicated business machines. Up above the clouds on the third floor, the chemistry, physics, and biology students are learning by the use of such articles as thistle tubes, volt meters, and pickled worms. Besides these specialized subjects, there are many other social, historical, and lan- guage courses in which the printed Word and the knowledge of the teacher are still the only means by which instruction can be given. These departments are every bit as necessary and important as the others, for every department is but a cog which helps to make Alliance High School go.
