tism, all ed to plans of investigation.
The conjunction wish its never ending

fully used by DR.. Hoss.
To play tricks on a teacher seems ever
to be in the minds of the pupil and
nowhere is there chance to do so that
it is not done, but to play such on an
unsuspecting fellow-mortal as Mr.. Fifer

class.
The class in arithmetic discussed
Stocks and Bonds Superintendent
Sence explained that If the student saw
stocks and bonds as so many shares as
he would see so many bushels of wheat,
nothing would be easier to compute. The
mere fact that they were quoted in per
cents only made them easier TO under
stand. Also that the rate per cent stated
was the income and could be so used. and
| this was always the same, whether the
| share cost 81 or 500.
Professor Dunkin, in physics. took up
the subject of analysis of light and ex-
planned the solar spectrum with its re-

ments TO be found in its source.
