The commercial department is not only for students who wish to become bookkeep- ers, typists, and stenographers, but it offers subjects ot practical application tor every student. An author should know how to type, a reporter should be able to take notes in shorthand, a businessman should have some idea of bookkeeping-these are a few Freeman C.

For the past few years, science has played an essential part in affairs of the world. Scientists have developed such items as penicillin, sulfa drug, atabrine, plastic, and, most important of all, the atomic bomb. Thus, this can be rightly termed the Scien- tific Era..
