No matter what vocation a person may choose, some facet of business will be used. The Business Department has added a new secretarial block, along with the Future Secretaries of Amer- ica Club. The department has in- creased its size with two new instruc- tors. HAMMERS, COMPASSES and wires are a few of the items often used in teaching industrial arts classes. For the boy who would like to become an architect or engineer, a course in mechanical drawing is invaluable in giving him the basic knowledge which will be used in college.
