Some ofthe fellows in machine shop had never seen one until the day we stepped into Mr. Ludeman's class. Now we are running ma- chines smoothly with the ease of old hands. ln most instances our reason for electing a course in lndustriol Arts is simply to equip ourselves with a wellfrounded education in the tricks of the trade. This knowledge will keep us employed at a good job when our four years of school are through. Recently the department purchased a num- ber of war surplus articles. Among the new stock being used by the fellows are: grinding wheels, power hacksaws, micrometers, and machine vises. six lllmlllffwhil Hull! -Y. In Dull?- iim fU.'L'l7lq

I0 4 7 Megaphone' ART AND MUSIC Well, kids, l think the Spring Festival is everything you said it was. I looked especial- ly at the portraits you said were your big project this year. Mom was interested in the wooden bowls that the art class had painted. l had no idea that high school students could draw as well as the landscape pictures were done, and the all-over designs looked really professional. I heard that some of the cover designs had won prizes in local organizations. The art teacher there told me that the art de- partment took care ot posters, scenery, and some of the properties for the plays. I had heard the choir sing at some pro- grams before, but it's still a wonder to me how they can all keep in tune so well without the piano. That's a good idea to have instruction in stringed instruments for the beginners. l understand you have a junior band and choir, too. The school seems to have a field of music for every taste with band, orchestra, choir, Madrigals, and even a barbershop quartet. F N-.Q-' The band has O warm up session at the beginning ot class.

Wea Sale COMMERCIAL Mom never could balance her budget. Guess she didn't take a business training course like we get in school which will not only help us balance our own budgets, but play an important role in our future careers. The local business firms profit from our com- mercial course because our school plays an essential part in these industries. In Junior Business Training, the ninth graders learn about insurance, banks, mail systems and various business forms. Sopho- rnores learn to keep their accounts straight in Bookkeeping. Accuracy, speed and concen- tration are by-products we acquire through our work in Typing, Shorthand, and Office Practice. Commercial Workshop gives us a chance to demonstrate our talents in a prac- tical way as we cut stencils, do mimeograph work and perform other services for our school.
