The business world is demanding trained workers in all fields. For that reason, a modern commercial department is a must in every high school. Central has what it takes, for the Commercial De- partment, under the direction of Miss Katharine Miller, offers not only typing and shorthand, but also courses in business arith- metic, bookkeeping, business law, and a thorough course in business machines. Whatever phase of business commands the student's interest, efficiency is the goal in all cases. ln addi- tion to the varied group of oc- cupations for which the depart- ment prepares the commercial students, a special typing course is offered to seniors to fill their need for general typing back- ground. Taking everything into consideration, it is obvious that Central's Commercial Depart- ment is something to be proud of. Poge Twenty-One

lndustrial From the nether regions of the school come mysterious noises. Humming, whirring, hissing, and the countless other sounds that accompany busy workers announce the presence of the industrial department. ln machine shop and metal shop students learn skills which, though not understandable to most, are of foremost impor- tance to the welfare of all. They learn the intricacies of mys- terious apparatusg they make strange noises and long calcu- lationsy and they come through with the goods. Auto Shop is a popular place these days. Everyone knows the car situation, and everyone ap- preciates a good mechanic. Central knows how to turn them out. Print Shop and mechanical drawing classes round out the list. Here the ancient and mod- ern join forces, and Central's industrial department scores an- other point. No doubt about it, the indus- trial department is more than fulfilling its duty of preparing students for life. Page Twenty Top: Gerald Christoii.
