PHYSICS CLASS GOES
: UP ON MT. ROBERTS

Monday OF this week the physics
class of the Douglas high school
assembled Mount Roberts for the pur-
pose of determining the amount OF
fall in the barometer at certain lev
els. The day was ideal for such a
trip, though the wind was found to
be blowing a gale at the top.
Two barometers were taken up,
an aneroid and large mercurial.
At the 1,90O-foot level the barometers
read exactly 81 inches. The climb
was continued till the barometer re-
corded 26.4 inches at temperature
of 4 degrees centigrade. Both the
aneroid and mercurial barometers
registered exactly the same. The
students who reached the top and
performed the experiment deserve
especial credit for their energy and
endurance. The students making the
trip were Rangnar Kronquist, Tom
Cashen, abb earn, Leslie Cashen,
Reid Allen, Nelma Neimela, Rica
Nina, Martha Soy. August Wideman,
Selma Aalto, Catherine Mccormack.

Poorly Printed Catalogues

BERLIN, Oct 26.-German trade
pamphlets and catalogues which are

been found TO contain SO many rhe

they have become target for criti-
cism in the Berlin press.
1t is pointed out that such circu

German foreign trade, but also serve
their promoters detrimentally. Price
