In ninth grade mathematics III
history of the use of numbers, in
Guiding the old Roman letters. was
reviewed. We found that algebra
was the name of a book written
hundreds of years ago by an Arab
ian. To solve problems he used an
equation of the things he wanted To
find. This was so much more success
full with certain problems that
mathemeticians have since improved
and enlarged the method Today we
do many interesting things with
algebraic symbols, and it is these
things which will occupy the atten-
ton and study of the mathematics
class.
The typing class has eleven mem
bers this year The beginners are
over the worst stage of learning the
keyboard and can keep a fairly
quick rythm although perhaps not
as accurate yet as they would like.
The second year typists are well
into the practice on business letters
of various styles. Some often take
most of the hour to get out per-
feet copy correctly spaced, but the
time is well worth spending.

kinds of water insects. Some OF
these, a water boatman and two
crawling larvae of the dragon fly,
are still very well IN the aquarium
which Ruth Seribner brought
Charles Jenkins found a water dog"
salamander. It didn't like its new
home SO ON the first night crawled
out and down the hall. 1t was found
the next morning quite a mummy
of its former self.
Several fish, trout and salmon,
have been brought to live in the
aquarium, but because of the danger
of running water Overlooking the
tank at night, they have had to do
without d change of water This
makes them pretty weak by morn
ing and some have had to be added
TO our mummy dog in preservation.
