CENTRAL JUNIOR ,QM ANNUAL REFLECTOR eau- nkfbikau new School Values I was an interested, and not surprised, listener in a meeting held in Flint one evening a month gone. This group was composed of busi- ness men, principals, and commercial teachers from various parts of the state. The question was What training should the school give its commercial graduates so that they may enter the office or go behind the coun- ter . You might expect these business men to say reading, writing, arithmetic, bookkeeping, typ- ing, machine work, and these were mentioned, but the real school values dwelt upon were speech habits, study, appearance, willingness to work, ability to meet and please others, the power to say no sir, and yes sir, the power to be independent of others, the habit of dressing neatly rather than expensively, the power to keep the face reasonably clear of cosmetics and the mouth empty of gum or candy. In other words, the discreet, honest, accurate, punctual, able young person has lots of chance for a job even now. N. W. Chaffee GNQKD The World,s Language Waitress: Hawaii, gentlemen?
