Today's business world is a complex and exacting one. Blanche Ashby, Everett Brown, and Rita Fern Comstock, commercial teachers, offer instruction in the different busi- ness subjects-typing, shorthand, bookkeeping, business English, and general business. Typewriting, in its first year, attempts to develop a mastery of the keyboard of a standard typewriter by touch, speed in production and in typing straight copy is empha- sized in the second year. In the office practice part of the second year of typing, pupils also use key-driven and rotary business machines and a voice-writer. First year Gregg Shorthand students take dictation of practiced material and also of new material at varying speeds and transcribe shorthand notes in longhand. Stu- dents of the second year develop skill in the ability to take dictation at a gradually increasing rate of speed and with a satisfactory degree of accuracy. The teaching of the fundamentals of double entry book- keeping is done in the two-semester bookkeeping class of S. H. S. An introduction to filing, bookkeeping, business arith- metic, business terminology and letter writing, and com- mercial geography are a few of the encounterments made by general business and business English students. Bev Hall, along with other members of the typing class, works diligently on the day's assignment. BUSINESS EDUCATION PROVIDES WELL-TRAINED WORKERS Blanche Ashby, Commerce. B.
