The physics laboratory equipment
which was purchased BY the Board
of Education this fall, has been de-
ilvered and this department now
has an equipment that will fully
meet the requirement and which
was necessary for efficient work in
the department. The new equip
ment will add much to the standing
OF the school as well as give the stu
cents the advantage of the use Of
the much needed apparatus in work
ing out their experiments.
The students Of the high school
observed the usual annual ''hobo"
appearance at school Wednesday.
Superintendent Browning took ad-
vantage of the occasion to explain
10 the students in general assembly
the significance and meaning as sug-
eested to him by their appearance
IN such attire. He explained that
there are three or four kinds Of peo-
Pie In the world and our attitude
toward work determined the class
to which VIC belong. The tramp,
more polite. the "hobo," is one who
has fell out with all kinds of work
ind refuses to do any productive
labor whatever. He Is the fellow
that has few or no associates and
ono that we never chase for an asso-
ciate. He is conspicuous charac-
ter who has refused to enter any
occupation and has shut himself out
OF all that leads to development. He
is always excluded from society and
is never permitted to enter the front
door.
The crank" Is one who refuses to
accept the progress of the world.
He ignores everything that tends
toward progress and undertakes
tc change all forms of improvement
In the affairs of men. The crank"
Is lar below the average and never
reaches the highest places in society.
The Jack-of-all-trades'' is one
who has the ability to do many
things and it is easy for him to learn
the beginning Of anything but the
thing that causes him to fail is be-
caase he cannot do any important
piece of work and complete 1t. His
interest dies and he quits.
The expert" the highest type Of
man-the man that Is In demand
the world over. is one who does his
work SO we'll that 1t never has to be
done over nor can be done In q bet
ter way. He is the kind of Z man
or woman that is always in demand
and is found filling the responsible
place in the big affairs of the world.
The things he does adds to the pro-
gress Of the world and makes society
better. He made electricity give
on light by causing the current to
pass through platinum wire en-
closed in q parcial vacuum. The
resistance or difficulty the current
meets causes the wire to become
heated and the results are familiar
to all. Our homes are lighted as
we'll as our streets and business
houses of the cities. To become an
expert one must learn to do the
things that are worth while. He
must possess extraordinary power
for hard work. This may come
about by liking to do the thing
which they are working at, but IL
we can substitute for love Of work
the will to work we can become IN
expert and thus be a light In the
world.
The students greatly enjoyed the
timely talk and heartily applanded
the suggestion that they become CA
pcIts rather than "cranks'' or a
Observation-Disclosures" but much less a
