' L : Commercial Department and heard the simultaneously clicking type- writers of what you thought were all fu- ture stenographers. But that is just where you made your great error, for commercial subjects are becom- ing as popular among students preparing for college among regular commercial students. There are so many different branches of this department, and so well are they organized under the direction of Mr. Buckstaff, that the ordinary student specializing in commercial subjects is as well prepared as the graduate of a business school. lXIiss Powell, llliss Engle, and lVIiss Blackburn ' ' guide the struggling beginner through the deep mys- teries of typing and the intricacies of shorthand. And we hear that being able to typewrite isn't enough, you have to do it fast. ln addition to assisting in the teaching of these subjects, lNfIr. Powell demonstrates his versatility by conducting classes in office practice, penmanship and spelling, and bookkeeping. Still another branch of the commercial field is that of accounting and of commercial geography, which are both handled by lllr. A. E. Cook, while lXIr. Buck- staff teaches still another side of the subject, business law and salesmanship. In the picture are, at the desk, Mr. Buckstaiifg left to right, Miss Powell, Mr. A. E.

There is no doubt but that the Art Department is the most attractive place in the building. From the large number of students who are taking art courses, it would seem that there are many future artists in the school. And aside from that fact, a view of the splendid work accomplished in this department would make the fact self-evident. Bliss Garrabrant heads the department and is assisted by bliss Barkley and hlrs. Rash. The excellent quality of work done by art students should be certain proof of the ability of these instructors. If you haven't real artistic talent, you needn't neces- sarily be discouraged, because whether you can draw or not, you can learn to appreciate art. And to help along, there is a class in art appreciation offered. There are other fields of art in which exceptionally good courses are offered, among them being com- mercial art and interior decorating. Through this department, students are permitted to bring their work into public view by entrance into contests, and through the craft work which they do. Graduate students are finding their work of great commercial value. Bliss Garrabrant Cleftj and lliss Barkley are shown in the picture below.
