THE SEA BREEZE 7 typwriting, shorthand, and office practice. These subjects are very important for one entering the business world. We also have Manual Training for the boys who are interested in tools and carpentry. This is only a beginning on the work, but it teaches the student the handling of tools and gives him an opportunity to make things. Not much can be done, of course, in the short time given and with limited equipment. n Vocational Guidance has become more important in recent years. The State Department has now established a vocational branch in sup- port of this, and this high schoolgis doing its part. This has been done by having speakers come here who, during an assembly, could tell about their vocations. This gives students whose future is not planned, a chance to get an idea for some vocation that interests them. The reason for vocational guidance is so that boys and girls in high school may decide for themselves what work they would want to ' choose for their vocation. It is an objective to have some place where boys and girls can be given an apprentice job as part of their high school training. Rank according to the amount of work done would be given. If he or she liked the work and was adapted to it he would know that that was the work which he should do. If not adapted to the work or if the student did not like the work, he would now have an opportunity to find something different. This has al- ready been tried in several schools with very satisfactory results. It is a plan that should be given consideration.
