Speed and accuracy are the key words of this department, and only through constant drill and practice can these be accomplished. Bookkeeping students had never before realized how two little words, debit and credit, could be such a pain in the neck. While the typists try to unscram- ble the alphabet that lies before them in a maze of keys, the shorthand students try to master the peculiar language of loops and lines, which was devised by Mr. Gregg. With a few words of encouragement and explana- tion,.however, the commerce teachers are able to smooth the perplexed brows of their 354 bewildered students.
