one besides soldiers.

The Physics classes had the first
labratory work of the year last Fri
day morning. We are still having
laboratory work this week. One class
meets from $40 to $50 a. M, the
second class meets from $50 to
1920 a. m. AS result some of the
students have to set their alarm
clocks little earlier.
The laboratory work is quite inter-
esting. The people have been prov
ing some of the formulas they have
been using. The escond class cuts
chapel on the mornings when they
have laboratory.
Over heard in Physics:
Mr.. Rindom: John in what unit is

John Wooden: Feet work per

writing a "scribble" each day.
The English w class meets at $40
a. m. the morning that laboratory
work is done in Physics class. The
class is studying about argument
tons and debates. We hope that
more interesting debates will be
given since we are taking up the sub
ject of debates as school work. Mon
day morning they had an interesting
discussion about "Modes of Reason
ing"
