, MODERN I' I' R R I I' I' I, I' M CALLS FOR WOODWORKING METALWORKING. PRINTING. ELECTRICITY AND AUTO- NIECHANIFS. ni 31, 's One of Vsfyandottes least talked about and yet most important units is the five industrial shops located in the east wing of the huilding. Although their aim is not vocational, in their general courses they offer an introf duction to the fields of auto mechanf ics, electricity, metalwork, printing, and woodworking. There are many reasons for general courses of this sort. First, the teach' ers are not satisfied to teach only one or two phases of an industrial course, hut feel that a general course helps a lwoy to hecome familiar with all types of work referring to each industry, and aids him in discovering any specif fic skill he may possess. Another rea' son is this: to understand a part of anything you must understand the whole in general, No young man should enter any field as a specialist without a knowledge of the field as a whole. Only one hour a day is offered in each course. hut, according to the shop teachers, this will prohahly he changed, They are hoping soon to have it so that each hoy may have two hours a day for half a year inf stead of one hour a day for the whole year as is the present plan. AL'To MI3r1HANIi1s The one hundred and eightyffive hoys enrolled in auto mechanics do work on the teachers' cars and their own, and there is always plenty to keep them husy, according to Mr. A. I.. Guy, auto'meehanics teacher. This method means that a hoy may miss a part of what would he taught hy means of set lohsf' which would cover all phases ot autofmechanic work. hut which would lack the inf terest of a live john Mr. Guy tries to arrange their uyolis so that the hoys ,'Xl'TOlNlEffll.'XNlIfS gives the laoy- in the class a chance to keep their ears in first' class shape. ln the top picture four lallys Norhie jones.
