Business Arithmetic THE SCHOOL LIBRARY In reorganizing and improving the secondary school curriculum, increased emphasis is placed upon improved school library facilities. The librarian must prove to the faculty that the quality of their own instruction can be greatly improved through cooperation with the library. Instruction in the use of books and libraries is given to the Freshman and Senior classes. The school library aims to stimulate reading, and the Library Club, besides helping with the regular desk and routine work, does much to popularize reading and develop a permanent interest in books.

The training the Manual Arts department gives prepares pupils for contacts certain to occur in their lives. The Fine Arts Course includes the media: illustration, murals, friezes, design, graphic art, sculpture and handicrafts to encourage creative expression. Household Arts wants to make the students intelligent about the role food plays and desirous of making their food a factor contributing to health. We seek to develop appreciation of the factors which contribute to one's personal appearance; to help the girl select and care for clothing and to develop skill in garment construction.
