Education

Five evidences Of an education
as enumerated by Nicholas Murray
Butler are as follows: "First among
the evidences of an education /
name correctness and precision in
the use Of the mother tongue. AS
a second evidence / name those re-
fined and gentle manners which are
the expression of fixed habits Of
thought and action. AS a third evil
dence / name the power and habit
of reflection. AS a fourth
evidence of an education / name
the power of growth. There is a
type of mind which when trained
to a certain point crystallizes, as
it were, and refuses to move on
ward. This type of mind fails to
give one the essential evidences Of
an education. AS a fifth evidence
Of an education / name efficiency,
the power to do"

Extracts From C.. c. H. S. Carbon Copy
Editors Note

On this page and ON page six
the News is printing parts of the
Carbon Copy Review, paper pub
lished by the Carbon County High
School in honor of the graduating
class of this year. The high school
students hope to make the Review
yearly event in the future.
The Review gives a very COM
plete history of the doings of the
senior class for the four years
they were in high school, touching
on all the activities such as dram
atics, athletics, commercial work,
and social activities of the school
for the year.
While we are not able to pub
fish the Review in its entirety we
are printing the main text of the
paper, the parts we have left out
are mainly articles that we have
published in the News at the time
they took place, which are:
Tipping awards, in which stu
dents made exceptionally good
speed and accuracy records. Alice
Boyer made a record of 81 words
per minute for Is minutes; Mary
Kolarich made So words per min
ute for Is minutes. Others who
made exceptional marks are Helen
Leckie, Sara Brophy and Viola
Warila. Sara Brophy won the ac-
curacy award, who typed a gross of
SO words with only three errors
in Is minutes. In the speed con-
tests Mary Klarich won the award
with speed of 81 words a minute
for Is minute period.
In the athletic events Oscar Muir
do, one of Carbon's three repre-
sentatives at the state meet, placed
second in both the pole vault and
the javelin throw. In the pole
vault he made a better record than
was made by the winner at the

before. In the county meet held at
Belfry on May 10, the Carbon

took first place after one of the
closest battles in the history of

Hard and Soft Soldiers

Soldering operations are classi-
fed, according to the composition
of the alloy used, as either. soft

Solder Of low melting points, COM
posed mainly of lead and tin in
varying amounts, are known as
soft soldiers, while those Of high
melting points, composed of vary
ing amounts Of copper, brass, zinc,
silver and gold are known as hard
soldiers. The soft solder common
ly used Is made up Of half lead
and half tin, and melts at a temper
ature Of $40 degrees Fahrenheit.
