T e 'chool HIS scene portrays a group con-i tending with the problems of' Woodworking which influence their lives not only in the school shop, but in the home and community. In an adjoining room may be found another group testing scientifically the but- t.er fat content of various samples of milk. In still another room, stud- ents are mastering the use of the tools, of Written and oral expression, as Well as, the habits of clear thinking and speaking. From the music room comes the wail of clarinets, t.he blarc of trumpets, and the role of drums. So it goes from group to group and room to room everyday of the school year. Education is on the march. The future progress of our nation is dependent to a great extent on the training we give our boys and girls today.
