HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

Tuesday the Physiology class re-
ported out of its usual time because
of some special work in dissecting.
The work was done with a rabbit,
showing the internal structure of the
8 final and the course persued in di-
gestion. The operation cleared up
a number of points that had hereto
fore been very doubtful to the class.
The remainder of he week was con-
sumcd in the study of the different or
gans and their functions.
The American History class seems
to be composed of lot of very sell
fish members; they enjoyed little de-
bate all by themselves Friday fore
noon. The next debate that the jun
Tors indulge, in. we will see that they
are also excluded.

trying to study; in doing that YOU
don't only break your own train OF
thought. but disturb everybody else
in the room. When you are reading
your lesson try to picture in YOUR
mind what YOU derive from its
t oughts, If this does not bel p in a

bad thing either t. try little dia-
granting with paper AMI pencil,as you

time where this will he required. Per-
hapS the writer needs to take little
of his advice home, who knows but
what he received the same thing just
before writing.
Some interesting questions occas-
sionally arise in the civil government
class. The young ladies seem To he

than me of our rising young Amer
leans.
