Shops There are various courses and activities awaiting the student upon his arrival at Thornton. The boys especially find interest- ing courses of which they can take advan- tage. The woodworking division, mechanical drawing room, electrical shop, auto mechan- ics garage, the machine shop, and various other shops offer an excellent course of study for the boys. It provides them with a knowl- edge which proves valuable to them in later life and which makes them more independent of others. It is in these shops that the lboys learn to make attractive pieces of furniture, draw blueprints, install motors, repair and over- haul cars, and get the training and instruc- tion which help them to become excellent mechanics and machinists. The shops are well equipped with modern machinery and other devices needed for training, and the 'boys find the work very pleasant and profitable. L l
