Cru- sading to teach us the skills we must know to conquer the business world, these teachers constantly astound us with their limitless knowledge of the intricacies of bookkeeping, shorthand, typing and numerous other sub- jects. At some future time we will pause in the midst of the busy schedule of our high paying executive job and glance at the splen- dor of our Manhattan office long enough to marvel at and be thankful for the patience and talent these educators showed while in- stilling in us the necessary business knowl- ' edge and attitudes.

Projects improve practical skills Mr. Emile Roberge PRACTIC AL ARTS DEPARTMENT Bourne does not produce only the future presidents, the perspicacious geni- uses, the nuclear physicists. A tantaliz- ing aroma which irresistably draws stu- dents towards the home economics rooms indicates the presence of various non- pareil talents. Prepared by Mrs. Jack Turner, courses which help girls under- stand nutrition values, complicated dress patterns, recipe book instructions, and the social graces are eagerly taken by many. Down a few corridors, a different group is engaged in other interesting activities. Besides helping the boys achieve a certain technical skill, me- chanical drawing, wood, and metal classes stimulate an interest in the in- dustrial world as a possible future career field. Through the excellent supervision of Mr. Roberge and the dedicated pa- tience of Mr. Dunn and Mr. Watson, attending these classes has become a memorable experience.
