COMMERCIAL
Mrs. Bainbridge's transcription
class is studying office-style die
tation. This means that there are
a lot of corrections in the copy
as it is dictated to the class.
At their regular March meeting,
the Commercial Club made type
writer portraits. They had special
directions and when the pictures
were done they were very nice,
some of them looking like cross
stitch samplers. One of the ones
that 1 liked was a picture of
Mickey Mouse, looking like the
real thing.
Mr.. Ladd's bookkeeping classes
are working on the accounting
problems of corporations. They
