Previous to our last town meeting. there was heard in our homes, on the streets and at public gatherings dis- cussions of how the appropriations of the town could be curtailed. Many suggestions were given and among them was the suggestion that indus- trial education be dropped from the curriculum of our school. To the stu- dent, this seemed absurd, as industrial education is not a liability but rather an asset to our town. To prove this statement, let us draw your attention to its value. There are many students who attend our local high school, who, for various reasons, attend no higher institution of learning. They remain in our town, shifting for themselves and perhaps marrying and settling down right here in Bridgton. To the majority of this group, a knowledge of Latin, French. Chemistry and perhaps other studies required in the College Preparatory Course would be of little or no real value. The General Course offered in our school does not, of course, call for these subjects, yet what does it offer to those taking it, which will be of any material value unless they secure a position calling for the use of Mathe- matics? VVith the computating ma- chines of this Age of Technocracy such positions are few indeed. The fundamentals of English are imperative needs and a knowledge of Mathe- matics and minor sciences is very de- sirable, but without some other educa- tion the average graduate from this course finds himself or herself at loss
