High School News

The Manual Training boys have been finishing the assembling of their projects, and are getting ready to finish them. The first to finish was Billy Paris, who completed a smoking stand. The rest of us are making larger projects which requires more time. Mr. Shaffer, our present instructor in this course, is taking up where Mr. Hockey left off. It is a problem to get enough wood to finish out projects for this year without thinking of what we shall do for next year.
