-p.-g-,,.s...,a,,.r, Uiifi l.f'.'li .r .i 5 1 'SEV SCDCIAL SCIENCE The Social Science Department of our school, contains five general branches of study. They are: General History, American History, Civics, Eco- nomics, and Sociology, The first of these, General History, is the study of past events in the Old World. It includes ancient history, concerning chiefly the people of Rome, Greece, Egypt, and various others of the Mediter- ranean countries, and medieval history of the middle European countries. A study is made of famous historical characters and of the significance of certain events. American History is the history of our United States. The students learn how our country was settled, how the government was established. and who our great leaders were. They learn our most important laws, the wars, and the events and con- ditions which have most affected our industry, progress, and growth. Each student at Central is required to include American History in his course in the eleventh or twelfth grade. Civics deals with the structure of our govern- ment and its leaders. The students are taught the fundamentals of the federal, state, and city types of government and are so instructed that they may take part in its activities. They secure a better knowledge of what it means to live in a demo- cratic country: they learn the laws of the country which have the most influence on their everyday lives, they come to realize the significance of our constitution and the high ideals of the people. Economics is the social science which investi- gates the conditions and laws affecting the pro- duction, exchange, distribution, and consumption of wealth. A study is made of the economic order of our country and its people. This subject gives the students a better understanding of the economic problems of our country and prepares them to meet any financial difficulty that they might have. Sociology consists of the study of our social order. It deals with such problems as population, immigration, child labor, crime, labor organiza- tions, and other difficulties dealing with the con- servation of human life. The purpose of this sub- ject is to help meet the social needs in the students life. +512
