Gain Careers In The Business World “Miss Moore, may we borrow one of your girls to work in the office this period?” It’s an all-familiar re- ?[uest to many commercial students who are planning or a career in the business world. Nothing develops proficiency in any activity as well as practice, and the students behind the high bank counter or facing the early-morning crowd at the school store will be the first to agree. Actual out-in-the-world” experience is available to the Diversified Education students, seniors who attend school for three periods in the morning and work in town during the afternoon under their em- ployer's supervision. The common meeting point of Commercial and non- commercial students occurs over the typewriter, where both bend to the task of training errant fingers to obey their owner and find satisfaction in the triumph of “mind over matter”. We find final satisfaction in that summer job which came because of our typing skill. Earl Toonc, Susan Sclkc, Riia ima. Mrs. Ravin, Gloria Halow, and Jo Johnson pose in a demonstration of the range of activities covered by the Commercial Department. 19

Practice To Develop Skills And Talents Ever since childhood, when we discovered that we had a special ability to harmonize in a singing group, or catch a friend’s likeness with pencil and paper, we’ve been encouraged by our parents and teachers to work with and develop that talent. We are still working and practicing—in the A Cappclla Choir,our voices blending with a hundred others; in the band or the orchestra, inarching at game half-time, or playing for a P.T.A. meeting, we give and receive pleasure. In the Arts Building, artistic hands sketch, paint, work with pajxrr or soft clay, and give form to ideas and images conceived in artistic minds. Our creativity carries over into the home arts rooms, where a girl with a bit of material, a needle and thread, and a streak of originality can create lovely clothing. Stronger hands work with metals and woods, heavy machines, to pro- duce graceful trays, lovely jewelry, or household objects. Every burst of creativity nurtures a talent that grows. MR. GEORGE G.
