16 Piedmont High School shortest possible time and the required work in the languages and mathematics crowd out other sub¬ jects; at the same time few, if any schools, pos¬ sess the equipment requisite for obtaining good re¬ sults in scientific studies. It is our purpose to make the most of our opportunities and to enlarge our facilities for better work from time to time. The following courses are offered: 1. Agriculture:—Burkett, Stevens and Hill or its equivalent. Actual field observation and experi¬ ment as opportunity affords. 2. Physical Geography:—Maury or Tarr and McMurray. 3. Human Physiology and Hygiene:—Lippin- cott’s Physiology or Martin’s Human Body, Brief Course. 4. Physics with short study of Chemistry:—- Higgins. The text in each subject will be supplemented by the teacher in original illustrations and the use of such apparatus as may be at hand or devised for the purpose. It is expected at an early day to have a set of apparatus for simple experiments in Physics and Chemistry. BUSINESS DEPARTMENT This, the youngest department of the school, was established four years ago. Its progress has been steady, each year showing a satisfactory in¬ crease in attendance over the preceding year. Here¬ tofore, with the exception of Penmanship last ses¬ sion, all subjects have been taught by the principal. Next year the department will be divided. The prin¬ cipal will teach only Shorthand and Typewriting and allied subjects while the assistant will be in charge of the Bookkeeping and Penmanship work.

However, a general outline of the plan of study may be given. PRIMARY Includes a thorough foundation in Technic. In this is taken up the keyboard, staff, rhythm, for¬ mation of scales and simple studies and pieces. INTERMEDIATE Continues the study of Technic, Studies and Sonatinas selected from Czerny, Duvernoy, Loesch- orn, Bertini and others, as well as easy pieces by classical and modern composers. ADVANCED Includes the study of Technic in all the forms; Inventions of Bach; Etudes and Studies by Czerny, Heller, Berens, Cramer and others; easy Sonatas and Pieces by standard composers.
