TRADE TRAlNlN Q Here we see Clarence Rowe mak- ing use of the shop's boring drill. Q George Hallet, director of Glas- gow's Trade Training course. 'f Trade Training is one of the few classes offered in Glasgow High School that is limited to Junior and Senior boys only and it is unusually different from other subjects in that its classes consist of a three hour period morning or afternoon, which- ever its participants may prefer. jl In taking this course, one enters an entirely new field of high school learning, for rather than the usual subjects of mathematics, history, English, this course offers a student actual experience on auto repairs Qtop and body work and mechanicsj, in welding both arc and acytelenej, in electricity in automobiles, and in the operation of the turning lathe. jj Glasgow High School has been honored by the presence of 13 re- turned veterans, several of whom are taking this course. This goes to show' how highly this subject is thought of by those returning fi om the war. Q Russell Waetzig, returned vet- eran, operates the lathe, a very valuable instrument.

WOODSHOP 11 During the past few years a critical survey has been made of the secondary school curriculum to determine what subjects in the curriculum are con- tributing most towards making more useful and more capable citizens. As a result of this survey, the practical arts courses, or otherwise known as Industrial Education, has gained in popularity. This popularity is largely due to the great variety of ex- periences which are offered by the well-planned shop course. 11 Woodworking has long been a favorite among the shop courses now offered in our school, for few courses offer greater opportunities for a student to learn to work in coop-eration with the other class members for the mutual good of all. U Of its practical arts course, Glasgow High School may well be proud, for it has one of the finest set- ups in Northeastern Montana. Under the careful supervision of Ray Baker, Glasgow's courses con- sist of Woodwork, Mechanical Drawing, and Metal Shop, all of which are designed to help the boy in future years. 0 In the above picture we see Glasgow's Industrial Arts building while below, Ray Baker, shop director, demonstrates on the lathe.
