The above hgures represent thirty eight thousand, eight hundred and eighty student hours or the time of one student sixteen and two tenths years of three hundred days per year, working eight hours per day. TWO students graduate this year With four credits each in this department. K , $931312th HE business of the school is to help in every way possible to prepare the students for intelligent and useful lives. It is manifestly impossible for any course of study to provide for all the questions bearing upon modern society, and it is to make place for such general instruction, as well as to give opportunity for the school to take advantage of some of the best things in the way of mvsic and general culture that this period is provided. In addition to this it is the aim to interest the students in affairs of current interest whether in the line of recent science or of political and economic history. To assist and encourage this movement The Northwestern has offered a series of substantial prizes to those students passing the examinations in current history as prepared by this paper and given one month apart. By this plan an examin- ation is held in each of the months of February, March, April and May. While it is still too early to determine the results of these tests, it is quite evident that it is a hard task to interest a portion of the students in these things: but that is a thing that is badly needed. The music in assembly has improved very much during the year and a much livlier interest and co-operative spirit is shown by the student body. Some of the students have appeared With discus- sions of subjects of general interest and others have rendered musical selections. All of this work has been done in a very cried- itable manner and those taking part have had valuable experience besides giving valuable information to their hearers. An occasional period has been devoted to parliamentary practice, With some quite gratifying results. Page 17

CEHammI almining Eepartmmt MAN seeking information in regard to a route 0f travel through a strange country, will, without hesitation, consider the direc- tions of those WhO have traveled the road. In like manner, in selecting a course of study, the student may rest assured that it is planned in his best interest in View of the experience of those who have preceded him. One Of the objects of Manual Training is to help the student find himself. The course offered is outlined with the idea of affording opportunity for the mastery of the fundamental principles and processes, rather than the development of mere mechanical dexterity. The beginning of the organization of a Manual Training Depart- ment in the Klamath County High School is credited to the year 1910-11. Drawing and woodwork were special features of the work at first. Four hours per day were allotted to the purpose. During the vacation of 1911, the woodworking machines were installed and the shops were extended to cover a, large part of the basement. The forge room equipment was secured during the early part of the school year of 1912-13. The metal turning lathe, and gas engine with the auxiliary equipment were installed during the present school year. At the present time the High School shops, located in the base- ment of the building, contain all of the machinery equipment for constructing first class pieces of furniture and cabinets. 0f the mission style. The forge room is equipped With all necessary tools for elementary general forge work, and small tool forging. A 13. inch screw cutting engine lathe is installed for instruction in the elements of metal turning. A 16 horse power 4 cylinder gas engine is installed for instruction in the elements of gas engines. Desks are provided for drawing work. Four credits are given for 1440 hours work in the High'SChool shops. . The work is apportioned as noted belOw. M. T. Course I. 1.8 XVeeks Bench Work ............................ 1A3 Credit M. T.
