Confusion, accidents, hard labor and concentration have helped to create this scene. Myriads of neon lights and thousands of factories loom in the industrial panorama. Railroads, automobiles, trucks, airplanes and ocean liners indicate that machines play a big part as instruments of the motor energy that dominates our era. ln this quickened tempo of progress sailboats have developed into modernistic ocean linersg log cabins have become skyscrapers, and covered wagons, in their uncertain tread, have given way to air-conditiond stream- lined trains. . As one of the many phases of modern enterprise, education has ad- justed its tempo and scope to correspond with other important develop- ments. It covers so broad a circle of liberal and vocational knowledge that those who have learned with its tools are enabled to go out into the pursuits of a progressive world fully equipped. q , In our high school a great number of these advantages are available. Numerous fields that provide for the pupils a range of learning have been thrown open to individual and group achievement. ' Besides the traditional and fundamental departments of English, science, mathematics, social studies and the languages, classes and extra- curricular-activities in drama, journalism, music, physical education, com- mercial studies, printing and a recent innovation, general shop work, have been organized and developed to give specialized knowledge and training to the- interested student.
