Build Fur The Future signs and the programs for various events. Led by Miss Kathryn Lohr, this group did work in pastels, lino- leum, charcoal, plaster, leather, and cork. The commercial course prepared its students for work in office and busi- ness management. The young people in this course learned office procedure and operation of various machines nec- essary for good office management.
