“
interest in oral discourse and debate is aroused. He secs a new meaning in his English exercises. It is now not simply the will of his teacher that he should prepare his lessons in English. He is no longer studying his lessons to satisfy his teacher and to make a passing grade. He is working for himself. He is personally interested and wants to know for himself. The same is true in mathematics, science, etc., subjects apparently only remotely related to his expected occupation; they now take on a new meaning. He sees that all these subjects are vitally related to the affairs of life and human activity. Mathematics, including arithmetic, algebra, and geometry, is presented so as to show the relation of these subjects to each other and to give the pupil knowledge of the equation, drill in demonstration, and skill in the manipulation of number, especially the latter, to the end that the pupil may have ready control of numbers in computation. So with science. Chemistry and physics are made to give up their fundamental laws whereby the student is enabled to test the purity of articles of commerce, to detect adulterations, and to determine the quality of goods offered for sale. Modern languages are studied not primarily for their literature but rather for the sake of acquiring the ability to converse, and to carry on correspondence in business negotaticn. Art is studied “not so much to give proficiency in the arts and crafts as to give a discriminating taste and judgment.” In this department the pupil is taught, among other things, how best to display goods, cleverness in advertising, how to attract and retain trade. The pupil is encouraged to self expression. Whatever creative talent he may possess is developed without the sacrifice of originality. In addition to the more technical subjects such as bookkeeping, shorthand, and typewriting, courses arc taken in “Local Industries” and “Municipal Activities.” Classes in local industries make excursions to the important manufacturing plants of the city and study the methods of production. They visit the larger wholesale and retail stores and study at first hand business organization and business methods. The classes in municipal activities study all forms of social activities, both public and private. They familiarize themselves with all the branches of the city government and their various functions; study institutions for social betterment, both public and private, penal and reformatory. The students are thus being trained for intelligent and useful citizenship. The founders of this school believed that results could be obtained that would justify the establishment of a high school devoted exclusively to preparation for a life of business. The two years of experiment have, we believe, to an extent verified their judgment. While all our ideals have not yet been attained and perhaps never can be realized, yet we feel that progress has been made and that in the years to come the judgment of the founders of this type of vocational school will be more abundantly justified.
