Science That nearly twelve-hundred students are tak- ing courses in science is evidence that science is one of the more popular courses in Springfield High School. The science departments aim is to teach not only a sense of value but also to encourage sys- tematized thinking, and thereby instigate a useful habit. Courses in science are open to all students. F or the freshman there is general science. Sopho- mores may take either botany, Zoology, or biology. These three courses offer a background for medi- cine and nursing. Chemistry, a third or fourth year subject, is also valuable to anyone planning to take up science as a vocation. Physics is the usual third year science course. Physics and chemistry are prerequisites of engineering. The Value of these courses is to in- form the pupil Whether he has the ability to hold a job which requires science.

More college prep students were enrolled this year in or- der that their background might be of some commercial value to them after graduation. Even if a person does not enter the business world the commercial knowl- edge obtained in high school should be helpful in understanding and man- aging one's personal finances. For this reason the department has considered enlarging its courses in order that everyone might benefit. The department now has its own bul- letin board on which displays of a gen- eral interest are posted. field Junior College, Associate in Artsg ' B ' C l Brown s usiness o lege, graduate. ffm-ff. f 6 A 1'-'V ' ll Milli X , Q i 9 Qu fx 'K 1 ' N I xl 'wet' ir XaQ linux iff' K qi! .Z A , ill lzlgff 11' ,. 4:-l J fe f'-T417 it tx lf ckak ,i .

Draftsrnen of the Future. Industrial Arts The aim of the lndustrial Arts Department is to provide for a variety of shop courses which give the pupil a dexterity in the use of tools and which will be of value regardless of his future occupation. Preparation for living is in reality living itself. When a student operates a machine in a school shop, he is doing the same thing that a Worker does in industry-the difference is merely in degree. Every boy in Springfield High School has an opportunity to gain experience in shops and labo- ratories. This practical training is the vocational foundation upon which and around which the in- dividual's aptitudes are developed. lt is just as vital for a student to determine Whether he is adapted to craft Work as it is for him to ascertain how his gifts should be applied in a professional direction. A broad education embodies the best of the practical and the academic. Twenty-seven A. B. McCall Illinois State Normal Universityg University of lllinoisg Bradley Poly- technic Institute.
