care to pass their daily tests.
The biology students have been
doing experiments. In one of these
they put a bean in 9
test tube and put 1t over the Bun.
sen Burner, put some acids in to
see If 1t contained starch, protein
and sugar. Mr.. Schwartz told the
biologists that IL they broke any
test tubes they would have to pay
a nickel for each tube but instead
Of the students breaking the tubes
Mr.. Schwartz was the one to break
a tube.
I haven't asked any of the chem.
istry students what they have been
doing in class during these last
few weeks but one day thought
I smelled some Of the odors that
come from a chemistry lab. I took

ing on some experiments but didnt

That's all folks, until next time
THIS N THAT ABOUT JR. HI
The Junior High has started g
new pep song which was sung fol
the pep fest before the Alex game
The pep band has made up the
music and Miss Ellis wrote the
words, so We'll have to give credit
to the pep band for the music, to
Miss Ellis for the words and the
body for the singing. The
first time it was sung Miss Swope
led the singing and Miss Wilson
played the piano. OF course, with.
out them the song wouldn't have
been success.
Mr.. Kohl was over to the Junior
Hi Friday morning and played the
piano for a half hour. He taught
them the "12th Street Rag" a song
which he always plays and that is
also one of his favorites. He also
played his new song which he
wrote and sold to a London pub
fishing company. Every student
thinks it's grand; so I hope you
all will be able to hear it sometime
in the future.

JUNIOR HIGH CLASSES
Well start off this time with Mr.
Rasmussen who has an interesting
bit Of gossip if you will permit me
to call it that. His ninth grade
girls classes are still on the theory
of light. They learn how to apply
1t in the home as to the best place
ment, color, intensity, and types o.
lights. In connection with light
ing, goes the study of the human
eye which is closely connected will
light. Eight different projects are
under construction now, and his
room will be a very picturesque
place when they are all completed
One thing I noticed as I entered hi:
room was a set of eight photo
graphs showing tornado from the
time it was forty miles away unit
it struck and passed on. The boy:
are on the study of bacteria, you
know, those little things that are
the causes of infectious diseases
They are studying the types of bac
terra, conditions for growth, ant
natural and acquired immunity. 1
any Of you boys get sick you'll
know the cause Of it now; or will
you?
The eighth grade have just start
ed a long unit on health which
covers personal and public health
and they have started out by learn
ing the body structure. Oh yes
Mr.. Rasmussen had added new
piece Of equipment to his supplies
which is a slide protector and ha.
100 slides to it and a daylight
screen. They have one or two pei
day which is connected with theil
lesson. Some originality has beer
shown by his pupils in their "B'
and "A" contracts by marking some
excellent posters in the last foot
unit.
The seventh grade Of Mis-
Schmitz' classes are now on tn,
study of savings and investments
business methods and savings &C
counts, and the eighth grade are OF

dition. They are reviewing the diff
ferent types of equations and mum
icipal bonds.

In Mr.. Knutson's classes the.
