Overview, Job Training Student Prepares for Future Pat Walter and Jo Anderson find that the address o-graph makes short work of addressing the school's outgoing mail. The purpose of the Lincoln High Business Ed- ucation Department is twofold. The department is immediately concerned with giving the student an overall view of the world of business and provid- ing a better chance to understand it. Job train- ing is the secondary purpose, offering the student a good start toward future employment. This year, the department introduced new texts for General Business and more types of business machines. The use of rotary calculators, ten-key and full-key adding machines, and electric type- writers gave the student invaluable experience. Courses in skills such as bookkeeping and shorthand further enabled the student to prepare for a career in business. Through constant drills, students increase their speed and accuracy as they learn the proper methods of typing letters and post cards. 20
