Students Enter the Business World Under the skillful direction of Mrs. Askew, the business department prepares students for a practical introduction into the field of busi¬ ness, including various subjects as account¬ ing, typing, secretarial shorthand and man¬ agement. The expansion of the business de¬ partment has made it possible for an in¬ creased number of people to obtain instruc¬ tion that will benefit not only those who go on to college and vocational institutes, but those who will apply for jobs after grad¬ uating from high school. Accounting pupils are given special atten¬ tion by Mrs. Oliver and Mrs. Pulley and short¬ hand and typing classes receive expert in¬ struction under Mrs. Edwards and Mrs. Mc- Lamb. Mrs. Oliver also handles many of the money accounting problems for the Senior class. This includes purchasing announcements, calling cards, and cap and gown rental. MARY L.

Classes on cooking, sewing, table setting and gen¬ eral homemaking no longer constitute the activities of girls in home economics. Under Mrs. Jensen and Mrs. Jackson, charts on household budgets are made; first aid is studied; the nutritional value of foods and drinks is explored; and perfect meals are planned to a science. Girls finishing this homemaking course at GHS are among the best trained in this field.
