The courses offered in our schools include, electricity, printing, journalism, carpentry, cement working, furniture making, drafting, automobile mechanics, science, shorthand, typewriting,.bank- ing, general business, advertising, floriculture, cooking, sewing, millinery, arts and crafts, interior decorating, citizenship, mathematics, wireless telegraphy, public speaking, debate and others. Dr. Strayer, one of the foremost educators of the world today, said: If I were sure that my boy was to be a lawyer, I should very much want that he should take some work in carpentry, a little work in automotive repairing, some work in commercial department, etc., in order that he might have an understanding of and a sympathy with people who work in these fields.

The equipment used in the regular vocational courses can be used, bringing In the home nursing department. the little fellows into contact with the shop conditions of the upper classmen and the character of work they are doing. This atmosphere in itself serves as a stimulant to the younger pupils to enter and do the work of the upper classes when their time arrives and in the end they are better fitted to take up this work. The finding and broadening courses require but a single period of the day of the seventh and eighth grade pupil and during these two years he may secure a basic knowledge of no less than eight different trades and professions concurrently with his regular school work and without detracting from the latter in the least. SUPERVISION IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS Trained and sympathetic leadership is an absolute essential to any kind of successful work. The seventy-three teachers in the grade schools have been fortunate in this respect. In guiding and directing all work in every department, Miss Leta Brooks, Grade Supervisor, has shown the effects L . gf. '..if,g'- Where girls learn to cook. Making their own dresses.
