BARRE HIGH SCHOOL- -continue d Other subjects such as econo: Acs, biology, and manual training have boon suggested as new subjects , but it has been shown by experiment that there is slight interest shown in these . A special course in typing for seniors who wished to go on to college was maintained until a year ago when the regular typing classes became too large for the supply of typewriters. There has also been some talk of having a moving picture machine in the assembly hall. There is money enough avail- able for a second-hand projector but it is advisable to wait until there is enough to get a new one that will last a long time . Drawing is another subject that is becoming more and more important. There is practically no industry in which drawing is not involved. It is only a part-time subject. Students who are interested in mechanical work or en- gineering need only to go three flights up, enter the room at the right of the girls str ' rs , and find in the drafting room of Barre High School, I ' hore are rows and rows of draw- ings hanging about the walls. A few steps farther on, and one finds himself standing in a garden with flowers and trees all about him. Soon Mrs. Rice arises from the roll-top desk or emerges from the closet and sks with a smile, ” ' hat can I do for you, young man (or lady)?” That ' s all there is to it. But a lot of competition exists among the 58 girls and 34 boys in this amateur workshop. Ten years ago there were only 38 in the entire class. •‘• ' his young lady (Mrs. Rice) seems to bo getting more popular every year. The cost of school has been reduced considerably in the last few years. This is partly due to the fact that the state gives a certain per cent of the money appropriated by the town. In 1928 the net cost of the expenses have decreased steadily until now the net cost is only $48,459.16. $60,400. was the amount appropri ted , but the state paid the? difference. Fenton Carrutb ’40
