rived and in steady use. We are try

change the daily program so we can
have our GeOTR6trY class before the
the experiments fill the air and have
q bad effect on our brains. Though
now we have some excuse we have
not our lessons.
The, new Biology books have ar
rived and we have been receiving the
first instructions, reviewing the first
part Of the book.
We are progressing rapidly in So
cial Science. We have two and three
class debates each week. The afflr-
matlYe debaterS generally win.
JUNIOR NOTES
w have been advancing rapidly in
Latin l having covered more Than
one fourth Of the years work.
In Sociology we have been study
ing the negro question in America
and a number Of pamphlets have
| been assigned to the members Of the
class in which to report. These help
/ the pupils to- understand more fully
| the conditions OF the negro.
The History class has been study
/ ing the events leading up to the Civ
il war. The questions as to whether
Jefferson was a greater president
than Washington was discussed in
class one day. But after a short
discussion the hour bell rang and the
question was left undecided
In American Literature we have
been studying the lives and works of
poets and writer's Of COOnial times,
The writer's are numerous and diff
! ficult to remember. We are afraid
that before long a majority Of the
class will be subject to brain fever.
SENIOR NOTES.
We have been making chlorine, the
poisonous wartime gas, in Chemistry,
and We have also had much practice
in writing formulas lately. The val
ences of the various elements are
difficult for some to remember And
the balancing f equations as a mist
in the minds of many.
In Latin II we have been reading
about The battle between the Hell
veitians and Romans And it has
dawned upon US that Caesar, like
most Of US, likes to put the defeat
of the other Fellow in large letters,
while his own failures are barely
mentioned, if not altogether invisible.
We have been reviewing the Ages
Of CAaucer and Elizabeth in English
Literature.
