i i i i Mr. Francis J. Murphy, Guidance uidcuzce' and jyfacenzezzf Under the leadership of our Guidance Instructor, Mr. Francis J. Mur- phy, we are constantly informed of the necessary qualifications expected of the prospective mechanic in the field of industry. Most important of these ore reliability, promptness, and the ability to get along with other workers in the shop. These and good moral character are considered even more valuable than complete mastery of the trade, and those boys who develop best in these are first thought of by the Placement Department, under the direction of Mr. Francis J. Harrigan, when iobs in industry become ovailable to our boys. This department has been highly successful in placing a large number of boys in congenial and profitable places in industry.
