This year only 29 students accomplished this honor. This is a Q3 ji lower number than former years and we hope to be able to present a larger number V up next year. Q A ' . ' Bedford is a school where one has never been known to accomplish much with- out the needed effort and work.

Survey of the Curriculum HE Bedford schools were organized in the year of 1871. The first enrollment was 300 pupils. The first graduating class consisted of six members. During the last 59 years not only has ' the school increased in enrollment but also in the number of educational courses and activi- ties. Bedford High School today has a high rating in the estimation of the colleges of our country, the graduates having always carried honors and responsibilities on every campus. The following courses are offered for the purpose of bringing to each student the most bene- ficial training possible in the subjects that will be of the most value to them: The College Preparatory course, the Stone Vocational course, and the Vocational Building Trade course. One could not find a school more complete in its preparation for successful graduates. In the above courses history, English, civics, mathematics. science, and physical training are required. The best of texts are used and adequately prepared teachers are employed. Science has always been very popular with the students. A well-equipped laboratory and modern experimental apparatus make possible the success of this subject. Almost 80 percent of our 800 students accept the advantages offered them in this department. English and history go hand in hand. Both are of the utmost importance to any pup-il in the shaping of his speech and background, so unusual patience and training is given them. Grammar, a new subject offered this year to Senior students preparing for college, proved very helpful. History and English as well as other subjects require reference work and outside reading. Because Bedford High School lacks little in furnishing us the best of everything, the library is always open to students. It is fairly well-stocked and well-kept. Students find it most helpful. The ancient world takes on a greater glory by theehelp of the study of Latin. Bedford has for many years sent apt Latin students to various contests. They have never disappointed us. Another foreign language made popular to our boys and girls is French. It has been a part of Bedford High School's curriculum for many years. If Caesar or Louis XIV were to visit our school in this day and age they could find many companionable students with which to converse. Business men of this city have always to thank the Commerce department for their efficient secretaries. They can tell you of the important and complete training given in this course. Each year a large number of students receive Commercial Diplomas. The department has prepared as many girls and boys for the outside working world as the College Preparatory course has sent students on to Universities. Physical Training, lately renamed Health is not only made beneficial by its recreation periods but once each week the class members are given a lecture on the essentials of keeping your body well and fit. The music departments have distinguished themselves this year in producing a band and orchestra of unusual quality. The Boys, and Girls, Glee Clubs have united with the band and orchestra and produced a beautiful piece of work, the annual operetta. Twenty-six
