o'' ~ NOTES


The Chemistry class is still studying
water and it's power as a solvent. They
learned just recently, the information
being offered by a member OF the class,
that the solubility of gases depends
upon their solubility. OF course no one
disputed this although the class paused
a moment to go into the matter.
The German II class have just COM
pleted their first work, it being Storms
"~Immensee." In spite of the fact that
it often required some extra thinking to
obtain correct translation, it may be
tr%uthfully said that all the class found
the story very interesting. If the re-
naming portion of the German ii work
for the year is as pleasing as this was 1t
will not be work.
The high school class in drawing
seems to be progressing nicely. Friday,
Miss Austin was called upon by Mr..
Hazeltine to judge the display of art
exhibited on the board. She found it
rather difficult to make any distinction,
all being of such high standing, how
ever, after close inspection she succeed
ed in awarding the first prize and also
the BOBBY prize.
The members of the high school
were not given the expected forty
minutes off last Friday for singing as on
former occasions. We hope this will
not occur often.
Those of the high school who we're
IN t%erested in football gathered at the
assembly room Friday night to rehearse
the high school yell and various other
songs suited to the occasion. We put
them into effect Saturday afternoon,
perhaps not without results.
