STUDENTS AID OFFICE Business teachers were responsible for help given to the administrators in recording statistics, typing re- ports, and filing records. It was they who accommodat- ed many teachers in the details of school business. Through them their students received practical experi- ence for securing jobs upon graduating or for business specialization. The business era should certainly increase its boom when trained students from the MHS business de- partment become the leaders of our community.
