Miss BOYCE Miss VVll,l,l.'XlVlSON MR, SEWAL1, Bliss Cousins Miss LOUTZENHISER Mathematics Department Perhaps the reader may ask what mathematics has to do with cowboys, Even i11 the 111ost remote ranches of the country, matheinatics is a necessity. The surveyor has to have inatheniatics 111 laying out the land-the architect 111ust have a knowl- edge ot matheniatics, tor he is responsible for the safety, stability and convenience of the buildings. Matheinatics is essential to a capable builder. The ranch owner could not maintain the ranch without being able to calculate the probable expenses :tml possible profit. So it is all over the world. A man is at a clisaclvantage without a knowledge of some of the various branches of inatlieinaties. In Sharon High School all mathematics is purely elective, except Algebra I, which is requirecl of all Freshmen. The courses which Sharon High offers are: Algebra l, Plane Geometry, and Business Arithmetic, each for one year: Algebra H, Solid Geometry, Alge- bra IH, and Trigonometry, each for one semester.
