W .10 wflfflomi A TO PPRECIATE O R HERITAGE At the present time educators are realiz- ing more and more the value of history in the view of the international situation. His- tory is becoming less and less the mere story of a formal textbook and more a correlation between the past and the present. This department, ranging from Ancient History to Sociology, emphasizes our Ameri- can principles of democracy and teaches our students to appreciate the fundamental lib- erties for which they are fighting. It helps the student to understand this complicated modern world which he must soon face. The rapid advances in scientihc and technical knowledge, the development of an intricate system of the lives of millions. A national calamity fa flood, earthquake, a iirej as a man-made calamity fan international warj may bring starvation and panic to millions of human beings. All these things are studied from a logical modern point of View under the able assistance of the four instructors in this department. Indeed, the history depart- ment helps our students face their citizen- ship in our United States of America better prepared. By instilling within them the knowledge of what is right, this department prepares our students to solve the intricate problems of sociology and economics they will have to face. When a student has com- pleted the social science course of our high school, he is ready to become a voting mem- ber of the democratic population.

The study of general biology is supplemented by '1 semes- ter of Zoology and one of botany. In addition to these subjects an excellent and most inter- esting course in geology is offered. The country surrounding Kingsport offers A ij 5, fl! l H so much additional practical information to the student that field trips are added to the eourses to make the subject more interesting The industrial aspects of our city also make the study of physles and chemistry much more profitable In the course of socul ehemistry emphasis is placed upon the practical applica- tion of science in industry' while those who study for college entrance requirements take regular chemistry and get '1 more thorough study of theory. All the courses have labora- tory work which creates active interest and gives the students 1 chance to show their me- chanical abilities. MR. ELLIOTT, gmloyvy rbcnz- ixlry, Jlzysifs. MR.
