oUR BROADCASTING s'iTtT1oN ml Ls.-1 K the class. The pupils in the B9 class act as reporters. Many class rooms and clubs have special reporters who turn in news items. The journalism classes appreciate the helpful criticisms given by their advisor, Miss Baller, and also the co-operation of Mr. Lewis and his printing classes. They have made it possible for us to be of real service to the student body and faculty. - - The SMH. - The Mimeograph Department The mimeograph department, which is under the management of Miss Proctor, has proved, during the past term, to be very useful as well as inter- esting. This department has put into circulation many mimeographed sheets for faculty mmbers, especially Miss Baller, who sends out much material for the use of the English teachers. The ninth grade pupils who are accurate and do good work in typing, have been perniitted to run the machine. VVhen the copy is being typed, the keys must be struck a little harder than usual, and after the stencil is made, many sheets may be mimeographed in a very short itme.-Rosa: Riesclzberg, A9 The Purple and Gold, McKinlev's Year Book Our school annual, known as The Purple and Gold, is fully a McKinley project. Many pupils volunteered willingly to write articles describing our life here at school, and it has been the work of the staH to correct and com- pile them. W'e have not always been able to give credit to the writers, for sonie articles have been unsigned, and sometimes been able to use only a sentence or a paragraph, because so many have written on the same subjects. We want here to thank everyone who has contributed to make this book a suc- cess.-Tlzr' Siu-lf.

N S The Business Educator says that the penmanship specimens sent in by McKin- ley pupils for Certificates show marked excellence. The penmanship classes are as enthusiastic as ever. Everyone is working hard to earn a certihcate. Since the 7th grade has been taking penmanship every day instead of two days a week, they are doing very well and some of the best writers have been given permission to work for the Grammar Grade Zaner Certificate. The 9th grade students who have already received the Zaner Grammar Grade and the H igh School Certificates are working for others, such as the American Penman and the Palmer Student Certihcates. There are 157 students who earned their certificates so far this year.
