Mildred French, Richard Appleby
and Irene Reilley have been out on
account Of ill health.
The football team is showing steady
Improvement. They will play Grand
Junction at Grand Junction Friday.
The registration to date is IA.
The following composition was writ
ten by Anna Koprinikar on the speech
given last Wednesday by Mr. Nice,
who is connected with the laboratory
of the Mt. Mamm Oil shale company:
Tho need Of chemists is growing
greater every day. Almost every in
dustry has chemists to test out the
product.
The Swift Packing company has
chemists to test out the meat and to
find out the different ways to mix
certain ingredients together to make
different things.
The railroad companies have chem
lists working for them and the baking
factories have chemists to test the
dough.
| Mr.. Nice said that some of the no.
tells and restaurants send in samples
of some of their foods about twice a
week. The dairies of Denver send
samples of their cream and milk every
day to the laboratory where Mr.. Nice
worked.
! A great number of chemists are
needed to mix medicines. A man may
be great surgeon, yet know nothing
about the ingredients that make up
different kinds Of medicine.
The Eastman film and kodak com.
pany has a great number Of chemists
working. They make different liquids
which they put on the films to repro
duce the likeness of anything taken
with the kodak.
Mr.. Nice said that it wasn't what
the chemists did with their tests and
testing tubes that counted 30 much as
it was what he could do with hi,
pencil and paper at his desk. He sale
that mathematics were needed to max,
a good chemist more than anything
else
