SKILLS REQUIRE PRACTICE Again this year, MHS offered various business courses to stu- dents interested in pursuing a ca- reer in business. Typing I, the largest class, oc- cupied three periods a day. Stu- dents learned the basic rules of typing and how to handle the machine. Students completed various assignments, including memorandums, tabulating exer- cises, reports, letters, invoices, purchase orders, voucher checks, and personal data sheets-high- lighted by the major project, a 6-page research paper. Practice was the key factor in learning the skill of fast and accurate typing. Typing II class members worked to refine the fundamen- tal typing skills. Problems be- came increasingly more challeng- ing in that students were re- quired to use judgment gained through prior experience in set- ting up reports and tabulations. In second semester clerical prac- tice the girls typed more elabor- ate reports, legal papers, and letters. They gained experience in composing various types of business letters. A great deal of time was spent learning the in- dexing rules for filing, and typ- ing index cards and filing them. Accounting I and II classes spent a great deal of time on practice sets, giving each stu- dent a chance to learn the fun- damentals of bookkeeping. Creating problems that one might incur in the future, Busi- ness Math gave students a chance to learn the concepts of num- bers. Opposite page top: Finished products displayed.
