Mrs. E. II. Byrd has been working with her group on
Polynomials. In poynomials you learn how to add. subtract
divide and multiply. You also learn how 10 arrange the diff
ferent types of problems in ascending powers.
Mr.. Johnson's groups for the last month have studied sew
eral different things. First they studied word algebra and
learned how to spell them, second was how to work out graph
forms. The groups made different ways to work out formu-
las for making graphs, and how TO work out linear equations
by subtraction or addition. At the present they are studying
about the seven types of quadrate equations. We have fin
ished studying the multiplication of monomials by poynomials.
Some OF the students were asked 10 express what they
think about algebra. Mrs. f, II. Byrd and w. A. Johnson, in

Any man who is perfectly satisfied with the
way he is living. or the way he is doing his
job, is in rut. If he has no driving urge to
be better person, or TO do better job, then
he is standing still. And as any businessman
will tell you, that means the same thing as
going backward.

traits a man can have is total inability to be
completely satisfied with his own handiwork.

BY ELEM
Fashion Editor OF The Star

NEW YORK. N. Y. Jan. 10.
Judging from the lady-like
look of the fashions for spring
and summer we're previewing
this 26th national press week
for fashion editors. the big
gest Grace Kelly fan club is
located right on Seventh
avenue.
On Sunday night at the In
ternational Silk Associations
dinner for us we saw four silk
costumes created by Helen
Rose for the film. THE Swan"
in which Grace Kelly stars.
Who knows but perhaps one Of
them will wind UP in her trous-
seau, the gift of the studio on
the completion of the film.
The evening dress Of white silk
satin layered with matching
chiffon could be a part of
today's scene rather than the
early l900s in which the film
is set. A negligee of white
China silk with deep border
of handpainted flowers worn
over a slender nightgown of
silk crepe de chine was an
other Of the costumes shown.
New Mood Is Set
But the real significance of
the whole trend toward So
called "ladylike" fashions is
that. in recalling past days
when women dressed up in
satins, laces. chiffons and al
paca, designers are also evok-
ing a new mood OF fashion for
women today.
Many of the dresses possess
a picture prettineSs one seldom
associates with this dress mar
ket. They look as if they had
Just stepped out Of a painting
of a great beauty of a past
era. In fact with so many
chiffons floating by us in the
fashion parade we could only
think Of the phrase, She
walks in beauty"
To describe the whole mood.
