The Nautilus The Jacksonville High School Wood Turning Department—M. T. Jacksonville has a reputation for being one of the most beautiful cities in the state of Illinois. It has the pioneer college of the middle west and the largest woman’s college west of the Alleghenies. It can also boast of one of the best equipped and most modern high schools of the state. The high school building is located on West State street about midway between Illinois College and Illinois College for Women. It is a handsome three story structure with a large basement in which are the departments of manual training and domestic science. The manual training department occupies three rooms. Two rooms for bench and wood work and one for wood turning. There is not a more popular or practical department in the high school thau manual training. None in which more efficient work is done. No other department gives such an all round symetrical training. It developes the mind, bod)’ and soul.
