III fhe Name of Science

For the past two weeks the
physics class has been studying
light and the reflection of light
in mirrors. This has all been lab
work instead of the usual three
recitation days. a week. In the lab
the students have been working
with prisms and determining the
direction which light takes thru.
This is especially interesting work
on bright days. The class is also
studying the nlagnifying power of
different types of lenses and the
bearing which light has on them.
One of the most frequent sayings
in physics class is "Fiat lux" (let
there be light.
The sophomore biology class fin
ished the invertibrate animals. This
work takes up the study of the
different insects, their manners
and customs Of living. The class
will take a test over that work
the middle of the week and will be
ready to study yertibrates. This
takes upethe Crustacans, Arachids
and MolluslkS, their structure and
manner of living. The class is
studying the crayfish especially
hard as Mr.. Clark usually brings
some to school. This is especially
fun when it comes to pulling the
legs off of them.
The general science students,
feeling that they should study
something which is appropriate
for this time Of year are studying
plants. They begin with the plants
as seeds, taking the parts of the
plants as seeds, stems. buds, leaves
and flowers. This study deals with
the growth of the parts of the
plants, the work of the parts and
of the plants and also how they
are introduced. One morning Mr..
Clark cut piece of a corn stalk
in two to show the class the kind
of stem it was and how it. grows.
Another day tie brought to class
some apple blossoms to show the
development of the blossom. The
class also discusses wild flowers
and whether or not they are worth
preserving.
In the science department the
chemistry class has been studying
the different forms and properties
of magnesium. zinc and mercury
as well as the preparation and US
es. The class is also studying iron
and steel. Under this comes the
different kinds of iron such as

WHAT SHAIJIw WEAR

WHAT SHALL WEAR!
The much discussed touic today
among the seniors is: What color
of dress shall I wear at the prom,
or what color shoes shall we have
for Commencement? The latter
seems to be the most vitality dis
cussed problem, especially among
the senior girls. We find this ques-
ton undergoing a great deal of
filibustering at the last Senorita
meeting, but we hear the question
is vet to be settled.
There is also much discussion
over the color of the gowns for
the prom. 1t seems that the red
headed girls like pink best but
find green more suitable, while the
blondes think they look good in
any shade, the brunettes, who are
more numerous, also have their
problems.
We hear very little from the
boys. but the report has come in
that Buster and Levy can't decide
whether to have long or short
sleeves in their suits, and we find
Roy Warnock red eyed over trying
to choose between his checkered
golf knickers with the pretty
crinkled shirt or to buy a suit he
saw down at the secondhand
store.
All who expect to graduate are
vitality interested in new buds. and
it is very likely that the credit
lists of some of the stores will go
up until after spring work.

RIVER AGAIN THREATENS
 SERIOUS DAMAGE

Salmon River went on an-. other rampage last week and not only threatened to cut its way through the townsite near the McGrew barns but also changed it's course below the sawmill and threatens heavy damage to the Salmon River Dock Go. dock. The vagrant current is now running direct ly under the dock and has al- ready washed out a number of piles, permitting the struct- ure to settle over a large area.
 Although no appreciable damage was done to property Tn the townsite, the river threatened to break through in T couple of spots and was pre- vented from doing so only by the timely efforts of a crew of men employed by the Hyder Townsite & Improvement Co.,, assisted by property owners of the locality and others who generously volunteered their services. With Wm. McGrew in charge of operations, con- siderable rip-rap work was done before the danger was averted.
