NV Trip to
Benjamin Franklin Institute

RLhl2h@AAAA
Ever since 1 heard about last
years Latin club going to Benjam-
in Franklin Institute, I have had
The Anticipation Blues" When
our class first began to discuss our
,cverfiowing treasury, was one of
the first to ask about going to Ben
jamin Franklin Institute. Everyone
else seemed interested, too. so the
secretary wrote and asked when
we would be able to see the Plan
etarium Show on classical Myth
ology of the Stars" They said on
Wednesday, March 1, there was a
reservation open to go to the Plan
-etarium. 1t seemed as though the
great day would never arrive. 1t
finally came and 1 was bubbling
over with excitement. Going up on
the bus everyone sang and had a
grand time. We arrived about
1900, ate our lunch, and observed
the building till 2o'clock. Then we
saw the Planetarium Show. This
was the most interesting to me be-
cause it was different from things
people are accustomed to seeing in
famous buildings. When you first
went in the building where the
show was about to start, the sky
appeared to look as it does about
8 o'clock at night in the summer
time. Then it began getting darker
and darker, till at last you couldn't t
see your hand in front of you. Then
all of the stars came out. They
were very clear and all of the con-
astellations were so much easier to
find than they are in the real sky.
A very pleasant speaking man rose
from his seat and began talking
about the different consultations,
pointing them out in the sky, and
then telling the fairy-stories about
them. These stories were that the
Greeks believed as to how each
star got in the sky. The show last
ed Till three. Then we observed the
Building again. Several of us took
automobile and driving tests. The
things that were on display were
all scientifically operated. The
building is noted for its push
button" exhibits. There were large
locomotives, Saratoga wagons, and
all types of industrial machinery
IN the building. Some of the other
things on display were how wax is
made, how chemicals combine, how
atoms separate, and the sensation
a tilted room gives you. This room
was called "The Dizzy Room" In
the top of the Planetarium was an
observatory. In the middle of the
building was a large pendulum
which extended from the top of
the building to the very bottom. 1t
hung on a cable and on the bottom
floor was large, metal ball which
was the pendulum. Finally, when
5 o'clock came lit was time to go
home. We arrived in Smyrna 8:15.
Everyone enjoyed their trip very
much and this was the ending of a
very happy and educational day.

What 1 Liked Best About the
Trip to the Franklin Institute

On Wednesday, March /, the
Latin Club went to the Franklin
Institute where we spent the day
and saw many interesting things
as A part of the observance of Lat
in Week, including the "Skies in
Roman Times" The planetarium is
a large dome-shaped room with a
large machine that looks like a
dunbbell in the center. The stars
were projected on the dome as they
are seen in the sky during different
times of the year. The constella-
tions that the Romans named were
shown to us. Many had very inter-
esting and funny reasons as to why
they were in the sky. The show
lasted As minutes and was very in
teresting. I think it was well
worthwhile.

Navy Granting It's
Reservists Delays

To minimize the hardship of
naval reservists called to active
duty, the navy is granting those
qualified a delay of 10 days in re-
porting. 1t is the navy's desire that
where practical the r%eservist be
given the maximum advance mott
fication of recall to duty, after he
has been found physically fit, so
that he may settle his personal af-
fairs.
In all cases where circumstances
permit, the naval reservist called
to temporary active duty will re-
port to the nearest main navy re-
cruiting station for physical ex-
animation. After that he will re-
turn home and be released from
active duty so he may arrange his
affairs. He will then be recalled
to active duty on a specified date,
in most cases will be not less
than 10 days after the physical
examination.
This policy and procedure is be-
ing followed in the case of naval
reserve officers and enlisted per-
sonnet.

Mrs. Barney Speaks
On Winter Bouquets
AT Meeting OF Club

Using arrangements of painted

gourds, evergreens and grains,
Mrs. C. H. Barney presented a
program, winter Bouquets" at
a meeting Monday afternoon of

and arrangements she had made
from only locally grown items,
Mrs. Barney demonstrated there
are many ways to make a winter
bouquet.
"Suit yours to your furnishings
and containers" the speaker urg-
ed. Don't worry about detailed
painting of seed pods so long as
you get the desired effect and it
pleases you" One rather unusual
bouquet was made of oats, left on
the stem, with each grain rolled
in colored tin foil. Many colors
shimmered on the delicate stems.
Local evergreens present a chal-
lenge to amateur decorators. They
are lovely used in their natural
state, or the cones of various sizes
and shapes may be gilded.
One large basket of seed pods
combined iris, milk weed both
closed and open, soap weed, wild
grass, cress or garden pepper
grass, tansy, cattails, wild mustard
and poppy.
Start looking in July for seed
pods, gather them in season..
Begin now to collect your
Christmas greens for doorway de-
corations. The rimrocks north of
town as we'll as the mountains af-
ford a variety of these" said the
speaker.
