INDUSTRIAL ARTS AND HOME ECONOMICS This is distinctively an industrial age. In such an age the activi- ties of people are dependent largely upon science, invention, and skills. Industry affects our daily living in multiple Ways: and its problems lie at the base of many of our social and economic ones. It is the study of industry, professional pursuits, home maintenance, and others, which constitute industrial arts. Its purposes are to develop citizens who have some understanding of the basic processes of production, of the mater- ials used, and of the problems of the Workers who produce them. It aims to train students to be efficient producers, wise consumers, and appreci- ative of the inter-relationships of all occupations. - jolt n Callahan Industrial arts includes the study of graphic arts, Woodshop, machine shop, and mechanical drawing. Space is limited and therefore not all stu- dents who Wish to enroll, may do so. Home economics includes foods and clothing, as Well as the operation of the cafeteria. The skill and art of cook- ing as Well as the study of Well bal- anced meals, adequate nourishment, vitamins, and related subjects are in- cluded.

DEPARTMENT OF SCIENCE AND MATHEMATICS Science has made the world of to-day. It has created the tools of our modern life. But the Science on which we depend for all our com- forts and conveniences is no cold and remote force, acting on us imper- sonally from without. Science is human knowledge gained slowly and painstakingly by men like ourselves and applied by them to the service of mankind. All down the ages there have been moments which made history. An invention which was hardly noted at the time, save by the few far-seeing men who prejected it to us for the beginning of a new epoch in the life of man. Early man invented the wheel, modern man has invented machinery to turn the wheels of the world. -- Marion Florevzcc Lansing Science and mathematics are im- portant subjects to those students who are planning to go to college. Each of these require keen thinking and accuracy: their study will help you to acquire these virtues. These are also helpful to students who are not going to college but plan on going right to work after graduation. ln the science course is included biology, chemistry, and physics. The math course offers algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and advanced courses related to each. A foundation for these is usually ob- tained in Iunior High. l. K. THORNLEY, A.B., M.S. L. N.

CULTURE INCLUDES MANY STUDIES Culture, a harmonious perfection in which the characters of beauty and intelligence are both present, is that knowledge of men and affairs which places every problem in sociology and politics in its true light. Culture is the knowing of the best that has been said in the world, and the best that has been thought in the world. This meaning of the word culture is not incompatible with a broad knowledge of books, a deep insight into the arts, and a clear outlook over the field of languages. Through the media of arts, music, languages, physical education, a full rounded course of education may be secured. - Ideas compiled by Domlhy Gm'b1'ec'l1t, '50 Y l H. A. KRUIZENGA, MHS.
