You just throw your whole heart into the task and do your best. 4. I 0 These boys in auto mechanics are not go! ing to create .1 new car. Nor will they create .1 new engine. But when the boys put that once noisy engine back into the car, start tl1e thing running, listen to its sweet putting sound, don't you tell them they l1.lYCIliI created something-they know better. These boys will have .1 better apf preciation of their own cars after taking this course. 147 I 55, I 2 mfg. F' . - z,'+?. 1. 45' sz., iff 'inv- 1 In science you create too. You talye two smelly liquids, pour tl1en1 to- gether, heat them over a fl.1me and then allow the liquid to ev.1por.1te. W'hat do you have? A lot of beauti- ful White crystals that you didn't have before. Of course some one else had them before. but tl1ey're new to you. And then, if you lseep study- ing chemistry long enough, some day y0u'll come up with son1e crystals that nobody has ever seen before and you will really know the joy of creating something new. lneidentally, you'll be famous too. There are also classes for students interested in physiology, biology, physics, and general science.

They have electric typewriters, the newest dictating machines. calculators, the mimeo- graph and others. These girls are talsing the advanced courses in business education. They have already had courses in shorthand, type- writing. and bookkeeping. XY'hile there are no boys shown in this picture, it must be said that many boys take these courses, es- pecially typewriting. Girls who go out from this department to take jobs are well trained and have little trouble finding work. Acme, 4u.l:pzcf.4. you, 1 W'-, ,f , Here is a shop where ideas are turned f I into concrete Cwoodj form every day. V There is something inspirational in worlt- ing with wood.

Some boys like it better to work with metal, and many useful and beautiful projects are made in the metal shop. In the drafting room boys learn about working drawings-htixv to malse and read them. llere are students in a mathematics class learning to use the Hslipstielf' fyslide ruled This is a very useful tool in the hands of a mathematieian. ltngineers hate used the slide rule for many years as .1 means of speeding up their calcula- tions. ln more recent sears the rule has heroine useful in many other fields. Nlans students shi axvax from math li.- tause they feel it is tonxlififietilt and ims prattieal. lt is not really ton diffit'ult. .X reasniiable amount of effort liy must stu! dents will do very wt-ll. and the stilaietat is prattieal and becoming more and more used every day. 1,-.ak .
