Through these courses one develops abilities which help to solve problems in later life. These courses require the use and knowledge of many machines. Agricultural training helps one to prepare for farm life. Homemaking prepares students for more abun- dant family life. Industrial arts instruct students in the use of machines to make various materials. Business courses provide students with enough knowledge to secure positions as typists, stenographers, secretaries, bookkeepers, clerks, and salesmen. Typing students practice for speed then accuracy, to prepare themselves for june regents. The happy look on the faces of these Ceramics students could mean only that their projects are successful. j.

all aflecl' our lives Health is very important to everyone. We have a health course in our school which is taught by our school nurse, Mrs. McKenna. Each year every student in school is given a physical examination to insure physical fitness. We also receive eye and ear tests, and periodical clinics are held to inoculate pupils against dis- ease. The new addition will provide improved quarters for these activities. A. lflawkins and D. Chapman ea gerly discuss the dissection of a frog in-lnder the careful supervision of Mr unt. 4 .- -W 4 D. Acomb, P. Riefer, and G. Hoh follow directions of chemistry workbook while doing an experiment on distil- lation. Math is one of the most important subjects in which a student can major. It gives him a broader knowledge of arithmetic, develops his mind by figuring out prac- tical problems, and gives him a wider and freer choice of careers. Mrs. Gray is head of the math department, teaching algebra I, algebra II, and trigonometry. Mr. Hunt, our science teacher, teaches plane geometry. D. Curtis is pointing out to these boys the various organs of the human body in one of the health classes. 1
