This is the preliminary training session for a two-year evangelism program to be carried out by the whole United Lutheran church in America in 1956 and 1957. Following is a continuation of last week's article describing the desires of teachers in the business education department if an addition to the high school is approved by the voters next Saturday: A general business room is recommended to accommodate thirty units. In this room classes could be held in consumer's economics, law, business principles, sales, business English, general business and distributive education. At present, law and consumer's economics are being taught in the shorthand room. Business principles and .sales meet in the art room except on Tuesday and Wednesday, when they must be moved to Other rooms in order to allow for art classes. Up to this time it has not been possible to offer business English, general business or distPibutive education. A machine room is recommended to be used for training in machine transcription, dupl& eating and the operation of adding, billing and bookkeeping machines. At present the only machines available for student training are a mimeograph and a duplicator. Both are located in the shorthand room, which is in constant use for other classes.

Green St. McHenry, I1L As a result, actual instruction oh' the machines is greatly limited. £ With proper planning, thia room 3 could be designed to accommo- " date ample paper and supply storage. Paper and supplies now miist be kept in an impr6vised storage room on the third floor above the auditorium. It is recommended that two teachers' offices be built in connection with this five-room department. Teachers' offices would provide a place for practical training for students in office practice and stenography. They would provide a place for conferences and individual attention to students' needs. They would aJso provide a place for teachers to work at the time their rooms are being used by other teachers. . Since McHenry business albsorbs, so readily, all of the graduates who have been trained in this department, and since the demand has been greater than the supply for many years, it is the feeling of the administration and the faculty that the proposed expansion would be beneficial to the city as well as to its children.
