DEAN WINTER B.M., Michigan State College Band and Driver Training Arg Curriculum Offers Varied Program Vocal music, under Miss Haupt's direction, gives students the satisfaction of singing with others and an opportunity to develop and train their voices. Mr. Winter, the band director, believes that band in high school should be open to every student who desires to play an instrument regardless of his native ability. The primary purpose of band is to expose students to music of all types and to help them appreciate fine compositions. Another aim is to encourage outstanding musicians to pur- sue music vocations if they possess sufticient talent and courage to fulfill their ambitions. In art, Miss Yanke makes her students aware of the beauty and design which surrounds them and enriches their lives. Her aim is to help apply this awareness by individual creative expression. Miss Thompson, the librarian, tries to help stu- dents find the right book when they need it. More- over, she widens their scope of reading material by choosing the most suitable and interesting books for their various personalities. The physical education program, under the sup- ervision of Miss Morrow and Mr. Burnison, deals with mental, physical, and emotional health plus physical activities for all students. Their principal purpose is to establish a definite relationship be- tween the mind and the body, and to work toward more perfect control of both. Physical education is more than an exercise or a muscle builder. It offers group experiences, the ioy of eftort and achievement, the 'fun of participating in a game which takes thought away from the individual. MISS STELLA THOMPSON MISS MARY MORROW MR.

Homemaking classes are valuable because they help young girls gain self-confidence and a feel- ing of achievement when they transform tedious household tasks into pleasant, worthwhile duties. ln training potential secretaries, Miss Merritt and Miss Mohney teach the necessary technical skills and, in addition, stress punctuality, initiative, willingness to work, and the ability to follow direc- tions. They instill the desire to do good work, and they emphasize that a secretary must possess the driving determination to be successful in order to fulfill her duties conscientiously. Manual training classes, under the instruction of Mr. Hodges and Mr. Kanouse, prepare boys for apprenticeship positions in industry as well as developing their knowledge of how to do many practical iobs. Their aims are to teach their stu- dents mechanical skills with emphasis on safety and to help them learn how to work together in this age of many technical improvements. Mr. McKim inspires his students with the desire to become more proficient in the specialized fields of agriculture, horticulture, and animal husbandry. He helps them to establish successful living on small acreages. He also stresses cooperation and good citizenship, and encourages rural leadership to enable his students to understand the people with whom they will be doing business. MR. MORRIS HODGES MR.
