Their pupils may make contributions to so- ciety as have these men below, whose pron fession is the creation of fine art. A pair of outstanding musicians, Mr. Brady and Mr. Beckett, several times throughout the year synchronize their ef- forts to produce such performances as this year's Handel's Messiah, Hchdwogon, and The Mikado. Mr. Beckett leads the A Capella Choir, and also several vocal groups outside the school. Matching up very well are the orchestra and bond, con- ducted by his colleague, Mr. Brady.

The typing, shorthand, bookkeeping, secre- tarial practice, business arithmetic and jun- ior business courses provide outlets for those students who do not wish to pursue an academic program. With this background they are capable of holding many good iobs, and they also receive help from their teachers in Finding work.

These fine instructors have started many a lad and lossie on the road to a good career in business.
