CLASSES PLEDGE TO
ROOSEVELT FUND
Over $35 Raised in High School This
Morning-Capt- Gibson Speaks
Other School Notes.

On account OF the great interest shown
in the Roosevelt Memorial fund, meetings
of all the classes were held this morning
at the end of the second period. At these
the following amounts were pledged:
Seniors, $S.75; juniors, S.; sophomores,
Sl0.46; freshmen, $ll5S. With the excep-
tion of the freshman class tho amounts
We're raised by subscription and by gifts
from the class treasury. The freshmen
raised the full amount by subscription
only. Other contributions will be received
by the class treasurer until Thursday.
At the opening exercises yesterday the
school had the great pleasure of listening
to an address by Capt. E. W. Gibson, who
spoke very interestingly about the life
and ideals of Colonel Roosevelt, epitomiz-
that throughout his life he fulfilled this
prophecy found in Psalms ll2: 5: "He
will guide his affairs with rectitude."
In speaking of Colonel Roosevelt's life
Captain Gibson showed how he attained
great physical strength by vigorous ex-
ercise outdoors and by his experience as
a cowboy on a western ranch; how, in
his early political career, he gained the
respect of all by his fearless independence
of political bosses, and how throughout
his life he opposed evil. Much interest
was added by Captain Gibsan's relating
"reminiscences of several visits at Oyster
Bay and of attending the Chicago con
vention, where he gained more knowledge
of Roosevelt. By these "reminiscences he
showed Roosevelt's far-sightedness, his in
terest in the common people, and his 10y
atty to principle, no matter the cost
That Roosevelt was loved and honoreG
not only by Americans but by foreign ma
tions as well, Captain Gibson had ample
opportunity to observe, having been sta
| toned, at the time of Roosevelt's death
| in French town where there were troops
of many races. The news of ROOSEVELT
death seemed to bring even to these ;
sense of personal loss. In closing, Captain
Gibson urged the school to show its appre
citation of this great American by a gif
| to the Roosevelt Memorial fund
/ At chapel exercises yesterday morning
Mr.. Warren spoke about the football
game of Saturday afternoon. He sal,

It is easy to demonstrate that germi-
mating seeds take In oxygen and give
ont carbon dloxide, according to the
following experiment described In the
Scientific American:
A 0 or so Of peas are placed IN
a close-ftting Jar with a small amount.
Of moisture. After a while the peas
start to terminate, but soon they a
all development, because the oxygen IN
the Jar Is exhausted. A single pea In
a Jar Of the same size, however, will
develop and grow up into a little plant.
There is evidently oxygen enough for
the needs Of the single specimen.
To prove conclusively that there Is
no oxygen left in the jar in which the
number OF seeds terminated It Is only
needful to plunge in a burning match.
This instantly goes out. The presence
Of carbon dioxide In this Jar is clearly
shown by pouring into 1t lime water,
and then shaking. The lime water
becomes milky In appearance. This
would not happen in a jar In which
there had been no terminating seeds.
