G ommercia al !i§ The Commercial department, headed by Bertram G. Clarke, consists of nine teachers all doing their part to instruct their pupils in some of the things that their future employer will expect them to know. Miss Bennett, Mrs. Malone, and Mr. Clarke try to instill in the minds of their pupils the bookkeeping cycle, while Mrs. Berenson, Mr. Clarke, Mr. D ' Ambrosio, and Mr. White assist the girls in learning to become swift and accurate typists. Miss Sylvester, meanwhile, is teaching the girls in her office practice class how to manipulate the various machines that will be found in the different offices, and Mrs. Malone instructs her girls in the operation of the cal¬ culator. The job of teaching stenography falls on Miss Cloper and Mr. D ' Ambrosio; and commercial geography is under the direction of Mr. Donahue.

MR I 0 omestic rts Who prepares those wonderful meals and creates those captivating fashions? The girls in the Domestic Art Department, of course! The Cooking department, under the supervision of Miss Mildred L. Johnson and Miss Patricia Griffin, train the girls to prepare well-balanced meals that not only satisfy an epicure ' s delicate palate, but serve as a nutritious meal. The sewing classes, under the capable direction of Miss Melba T. Wright and Miss Patricia Griffin, cannot be surpassed. These talented young misses have ac¬ complished much in the way of creating those slim lines of the current Paris fash¬ ion. Who says the Christian Dior Look cannot be equaled? For here their nimble fingers whip up keen creations that de¬ light the eye.
