ting along nicely. They are starting
on the Causes Of the Revolution.
Miss CRUDE sprang little trap on
the Cicero class this Monday. Instead
of sending them to the board and di.
vidink the sentences as il her usual
custom with composition work, she had
them remain at their seats and write
on paper the translation Of the English
sentences which were written upon the
board and hand them in. Thus she
shrewdly calculated to find out those Of
the class who were working.
Chemistry is considered Junior sub
ject but inasmuch as several of the
Seniors are taking it instead of Physics
this year, we feel that it has a part in
the Senior notes Hence we hope when
ever any, mention Of the Chemistry
class is made that the Juniors will take
no offense at what they call Stealing
their glory" During the past week
the class has been engaged in another
struggle terrible" Chemistry prob
lens, but thru the valient efforts of
Prof. Coonrod, who certainly cultivating
all the characteristics of monument of
patience, the majority of the class has
been rescued from the Slough Of Des-
pond and are on sure ground once more.
The Physics class has been having an
English argument. The book said ''If
the air WAS pumped out" Some men,
bers of the class insisted on IF the
air WERE pumped out" Every teach
er in the school was confronted with
the great question, for might it not
mean mistake in our otherwise infal-
lible Physics author? Everywhere the
same answer came, "Was the air real
ly pumped out, or was it condition
contrary to facts?" Over this point
the battle ragged hotter than ever. The
class was divided in opinion as to that
fact All the satisfaction we got was
eff the air was really pumped out was
is correct"
The Training Course students will

SOPHMORE NOTES.
The Sophmores reveled in Geome-
try test last Friday. Some of US are
afraid to hear the outcome of the pa
pers for fear of becoming deaf ae the
result of hearing such awful things as
Miss Snider would be forced to tell US
about them. Mrs. Hill gave US anoth-
er history test. She said we did fine.
We are expecting test in Caesar soon
which will be on what we should know.
Miss Gruhe says she expects good pa
pers. We are therefore going to try
real hard.
Oh unhappy day that will bring that
English test.
The Sophmore basket ball captains
are sure putting the teams thru. Even
if We did lose game it is no sign we
aren't going to help ourselves to the
