They Mean Business Again this year the aim of the Commercial Department has been to give a thorough training, which will enable gradu- ates to go out into the business world and assume positions of responsibility in offices or stores. Long hours of practice on the typewriter, drill in writing and transcribing short- hand, or keeping a set of books, prepared commercial students for their chosen work. The retail selling class. in addition to training in selling procedures, gave instruction in merchandising and testing of fabrics. The department was kept busy all year fitting people to meet the ever- increasing demand for trained workers. t'oncenlration. :1 few minutes time. and presto a typewritlen page emerges. despite the noisy allnosphere.

Students who needed to have special difficulties in arithmetic 'tironefl out were advised to take the course in basic mathematics. Realizing that a greater knowledge of mathematics would further their chance of advancement in the armed services. this year boys have registered in the advanced lnathenlatics courses in unusually large lllllllll6I'S. Of special interest to the pre-induction students were the courses in aero- pn-flight and navigation. The higher mathematics classes gave nluch valuable information to those who expect to enter the fields of engineering or science. ldngrosseil in their Math .Xnal,, these students are directing: their attention on the implicit tiiffL'I'CIltitltiUll alias the int'ern:il triangle. 1 A 'Q-
