The membership is made up of boys who are interested in learning about the world of commerce and finance, either with the idea of careers in mind or merely to broaden their knowledge of the world about them. The Club has been ably guided by Mr. Parnell, who teaches Commercial Science subjects. Among the Club's activities this year have been the fol- lowing: visits to business organizations in the areag studies and discussions of present and future trends in the cost oflivingg studies on careers in managementg films on the building of sound business organi- zations. This group has made great strides in its brief history thus far, and is looking forward to con- tinued rapid progress in the years to come. Although many of the club members are students who are taking Commercial Science courses, membership is open to any student who is interested in learning something about the business world.
