Because the electric motor has
become so essential to modern life
the Consumers Science class Is not
only studying its parts and types,
but also each student has to make
simple electric motor. We know
that there are few people today
whose daily routine is not affected
in some way by electric motors
For this reason we are trying to
know the basic principles that
govern an electric motor.
Back in Miss Wilson's room, we

The book review this week is
1.-THE Year Of Jubilo," by Ruth
Sawyer.
1t was a great shock to the wy
mans to give up their home in the
city because they hadn't enough
money to keep it. All they had was
their summer cottage at Haddocl,
Harbor, which they loved, but II
was going to be difficult to make
it their year-round home. David
fished, Duncan gardened, Carter
chopped wood, Lucinda was berry
picker and somewhat uncertain
cook, and the little mother mended
their clothes. So the summer pass
ed in furious preparation for the
long winter ahead.
But there were other hardships
to face: Duncan in love and max
ing a great sacrifice for his family
the anxious time when the little
mother became seriously i'll, and
the frequent outbursts of temper
which Lucinda and Carter had to
learn to control.
But Lucinda found that other
things made up for their Difficult
ties-days when the sea fairly
sparkled in the summer sun; wan
dering by herself over the warm
sweet smelling hills; and many fine
and lasting friendships among the
natives"
What happened to make their
year of trial end with rejoicing
brings this moving story to a graf
flying climax.
