Commemkzl CHE commercial course is continuing to grow in popularity, with the typing classes still the favorite. Another new typewriter was added this year to meet the demand for the first-year course. There are now 61 students in the typing classes, 19 in shorthand, and 18 in bookkeeping. Although typing for personal use is emphasized in the beginning typing classes, actual office problems are set up as nearly as possible for the other commercial classes--in bookkeeping through the use of business setsg in typ- ing with the use of budgets setting up actual office situations.

CQHIS year a Driver's Training course, taught by Mr. William Whalen, has been added to the schedule of our High School. The course consists of three hours a week--one hour of classroom instruction and two hours of driving. The total of twenty hours is required to complete the course. The successful completion of the course gives each student a de- finite plate number to be used on the automobile license plate. In this way the Depart- ment of Revenue is able to determine just who is having automobile accidents. The cou-rse has been interesting and instructive. As a result 45 students are well trained to operate motor vehicles. In the above picture are the students of the first of three classes instructed this year. We wish to extend our sincere thanks to the Schultz Motor Co. for donating the use of the 1950 Ford used in the training. I 3 n N ,nm- Parallel Parking S ' y Parts of the Motor l ' L fx - l 7 1 22.

Home Maker! ELATED ART - the part of homernaking which makes life more pleas ant and agreeable by developing the appreciation of art in our every- day lives. We have learned to use art in simple ways, how to find beauty in common things, and, most of all, how to enjoy beauty everywhere. Nothing is more inter- esting and fascinating than watching children develop.. Guiding and directing young chil- dren in their growing and learning is an im- portant responsibility. Regardless of its furnishings the home affords rest and immediate sat- D isfaction to the family only if well cared for. The care and com- fort of her patient is one of the great- est responsibilities of the home nurse. K.
