Wheels of Business TYPE Commercial teachers at Edison High capably instruct pupils in acquiring superior stenographic skill, which is a combination of shorthand, typing, and transcribing. Business students also obtain a clear understanding of business customs and procedures. Besides these two assets one also develops such traits as dependability, courtesy, initiative, judgment, loyalty, resourcefulness, and, most important of all, adaptability and common sense. Because of the development of these traits of character, our commercial department has rendered to the world a great service which is priceless. Page 18

Knowing Democracy What memory is to each man. history is to the human race. It explains what we are doing, why we are doing it. and how we came to do it. History makes our life more interesting by the meaning it gives to the books we read, the cities and art we see, the music we hear. It enables us to understand ourselves by making us better acquainted with other peoples. History is the whole story of man's life. It points out his failures along with his successes, thereby encouraging improvement. HISTORY Victor Erickson. Stella Ballou. Marjorio Simmons, Eva Peterson, Grace Ttllotsan.
