The purposes of the Club are: To foster a higher and finer social spirit among the students of the department: to present to the students through lectures, plays, programs, the problem of business life and a better conception -of the commercial world as it is today, to give awards for typing, which formerly had been given by the typewriting companies but has been discontinued by them, and to sponsor commercial contests which are given each year. The plans of the Club have been retarded this year as the club was organized in the second semester of school, but it is hoped that in the Fall the cornmercial students may work with renewed energy and interest, and carry it forward surmount- ing all obstacles. The officers of the club for this year are as follows: president, Clarence Miller, vice-president, Glenn Bowman: secretary, .lane Seitzg and treasurer, Roger Bailey. The Commercial department, an infant member of the school organization, is fast developing into a progressive division -of the educational life in the high school and community. I add community because we feel that the work of this Depart- ment is of vital importance in bringing about greater efficiency and intelligence in the business life of Wapakoneta and its vicinity. Students in the Commercial Department have instruction in shorthand, type- writing, bookkeeping, and commercial arithmetic, The English Department offers in addition to these subjects, a splendid course in Business English, while economics also holds an important position in the supplementary business training. gg, 910101010-loin: :mini 1 11112 1 111 2 1010101 1 iyioioirlioinioioioiuoa
