Students of the commercial depart- ment of the Natrona County High school who won prizes offered by the Casper’ Lions for proficiency in type- writing, shorthand, bookkeeping and penmanship during the closing school year will not be announced unt!l next Wednesday evening when the full list will be available, it was an- nounced last night when Lions wit- nessed the competition in typewrit- ing and shorthand at the high school auditorium. Tests of students who competed last night remained to be fded after the close of the demon- tration. It is probable that the honor students will be invited to dine | with the club at its next meeting. _ The competition last night carried out under the direction of Miss Myrtle Dolan, head of the commer- cial department, demonstrated the ex- cellent work being done in the high school business course. The ad- vanced class in shorthand took notes at thrgrate of 90 and 110 words a minute to determine the prize win- ners, while the most proficient among the first year class in typewriting copied for ten minutes at a lively pace. The demonstration followed a din- ner prepared by girls of the domestic science department under the super- vision of Miss Harriett Gardner. Dainty favors were used and flowers decorated the tables. The four-course dinner proved appetizing in the ex- treme and won the highest com- mendation. Arrangements for the dinner were made by C. K. Fletcher, principal of the high school, who is also chairman of the Lions committee which recom- mended the awarding of honors to commercial course students.
