SOCIAL SCIENCE Our Social Science program offers four courses in history, two of which are required. In addition there is offered a semester each of sociology, economics, and civics, the latter compulsory. After his freshman year each pupil is enrolled in at least one of these courses. A changing world has had its effect on the subject matter of these courses, so that the social and economic problems of our nation are stressed with the aim of making the potential citizen conscious of his future responsibilities. SCIENCE AND MATHEMATICS The Science Department of Paris High School offers a rich curriculum consisting of one half year each of physiology and physiography, one half year each of botany and zoology, and one year of chemistry, and one year of physics. These classes are taught by Miss Margaret Steele, Miss Fannie Luck-haupt, Mr. C. J. Little, and Mr. O. R. Ariens respectively. The complete course of mathematics includes one and one-half years of algebra, one and one-half years of geometry, and one-half year of commercial arithmetic taught by Mr. O. R. Ariens, Mr. Leallyn Clapp, and Mr. C. J. Little. FOREIGN LANGUAGES Four years of Latin are offered in the department. A change has been made in sequence of authors read. Vergil is read now only every other year. The students this year have worked on a project using head lines of newspapers to show that although Anglo-Saxon is the bone of our language, Latin is the brain. Two years of French, open to juniors and seniors, are offered. During the second year several stories are read, giving an insight into French life, manners, and customs. As outside work, the pupils make notebooks containing illustrations of their stories, pictures of French cities, buildings, and scenes. Clippings showing the introduction of French words and expressions into our own literature are also included. ENGLISH Four years of English are required for graduation from Paris High School. The aim of the English course is two-fold: to develop in the student the power of accurate and effective expression of his thoughts and to give him an appreciation of the best literature. The course in composition is designed to accomplish the first aim; the critical reading of some of the classics, the careful reading of others, together with a study of the history of English and American Literature is intended to accomplish the second. PHYSICAL EDUCATION The program in the boys’ gym classes consists of calisthenics, games, supervised play, and interscholastic sports in season. Volleyball and basketball are played in the fall and winter, and boxing and track activities occupy the spring semester. The girls’ program includes gymnastics, stunts, tumbling, and pyramid building, track events, basketball, volleyball, indoor soccer, deck tennis, indoor baseball, and folk, tap, clog, and social dancing. These activities are classified into eight groups, one for each semester. This gives the students elementary training in courses which they will be offered later on in college, university, or recreational centers, and in their adult life. MUSIC The Music department of Paris High School, supervised by Miss Ethel Hougham, consists of the Girls’ Glee Club, Boys’ Glee Club, Girls’ Chorus, and Orchestra. Each group meets twice a week. All of the groups are doing more A Cappella singing this year, since the Girls’ Glee Club and Mixed Chorus number for the contest must be sung unaccompanied. The orchestra students have had an elementary course in conducting, each one having an opportunity to handle the baton. VOCATIONS Five teachers devote full time, and two, part time to vocation subjects. In the two-year course in manual training, Mr. H. B. Hunter and his boys work three days in the shop and two days in mechanical drawing each week. A three-year course in agriculture is directed by Mr. Don H. Hamilton. In the commercial course Miss Zulu Wright is in charge of the shorthand and advanced typing, Miss Stella Risser of the beginning typing and bookkeeping, and Mr. E. W. Eveland of the junior business training classes. The household sciences are directed by Miss Galena Kibby, clothing, and Miss Mary Perisho, foods.
