inger to remind us of its pleasure,
its trials, and it's victories. The time

Yet, how many incidents, how many

packed in this space of time. How

OUR HIGH SCHOOL AND IT'S
WORK

One of the aims of the Blue and
Gold is to build up an understanding
between the school and the people of
Red Lodge. This aim can hardly be
accomplished if the people of the town
do not know what the school is doing
With this thought in view we are
going to print series of articles des-
cribing the school in general and the
work of each department.
Of course we all know that the
executive head of the institution is
c. r. Schmidt. Mr.. Schmidt was pre-
viously head of the science depart
ment and director of athletics at Car
bon. In addition to the extensive duties
of the executive which Mr.. Schmidt
enjoys, he is teaching a class in bust
ness law and geology. The business
law class takes commercial geography
the last half Of the year.
Business law and commercial geo.
graphy are one credit subjects. They
are of a practical nature, dealing with
subjects that will be of aid to anyone
who takes them, There is so much to
be covered on each of these subjects
that it is too bad that more time can
not be devoted to them.
Geology is a two credit subject last
ing the full year 1t is the second year
science subject offered at Carbon. 1t
is made up Of study of rocks, their
strata. etc. Geology is Of special in
terest and Importance to the student
who hopes to become an engineer.
