0 reparef r uture ife Now is The Time Tor all good men To come To The aid OT Their counTry. This line always makes one Think oT Typing and all The associaTed commercial skills. Never beTore has our commercial deparTmenT had as many enrollees as in The pasT year. ln anTicipaTion OT The day when They will be salaried oTTice workers, Miss Nordvig's second year class pracTiced The arTs oT sTeno4 graphy on True-To-liTe proving grounds. Each girl was appoinTed secreTary To some Teacher in school. ln perTorming Their duTies Tor Their school bosses, The girls gained experience in correspondence work, Tiling, Typing, and dicTa- phone operaTion. Adeline Johann posed using The dicTaphone in The approved manner, while Doris GoeTz was phoTographed aT her Type- wriTer. The girls learned The use oT The Telee phone, and in addiTion, sTudied The personal qualiTies a young business-woman should have. lvliss l-lerreman and lvliss SchmiTz, who Teach elemenTary classes, build The ToundaTion Tor This advance Training. Every day Mr. Baechler's bookkeeping sTu- denTs Took ouT Their ledgers and accounTing books and Tackled problems analogous To everyday siTuaTions. One such class is picTured here, enTering accounTs oT hypoTheTical asseTs and liabiliTies which will laTer be replaced by acTual business TransacTions. When These sTu- denTs, in elemenTary courses, were compared wiTh others in a sTaTe achievemenT TesT, They ranked above average in abiliTy. Under The waTchTul eye oT Mr. Baechler, The sTudenTs learned The use oT The machines which aid bookkeepers, namely The bookkeeping machine aT which Ralph Tews is shown working. The success oT These modern meThods is reTlecTed by The manner in which local Tirms have absorbed The commercial graduaTes.
