HP' ' FORREST VOEKS JEWEL JACOBSON gl FLORENCE MlLES FORDYCE RHOADES MATHEMATICS Since I didn't have much time for educa- tion when I was young, I didn't learn much arithmetic. After looking over the mathe- matics classes, I see what I missed. Students with a yearning to sail the seven seas seem to be very happy in Miss Miles' navigation class. Potential engineers with successful years of algebra and geometry behind them take math analysis to delve into the mys- teries of calculus and analytic geometry. Maybe that's where Big Ole learned how to convert the working day into three shifts, each twenty-four hours, for the lum- bermen. B. FORREST VOEKS.

FINE ART D PAR T MENT Lumber men have a special language all their own, but I guess it's not the same as those offered by the Ballard Language Department! Why, my men wouldn't know what a verb was, let alone how to conjugate one. Yes, your Latin, French, Spanish, and Norwegian classes have us all beat hollow when it comes to learning and using a foreign language. The subjects are made even more interesting by studying the history and customs of the country where the language originates About the onlv melody we ever used to hear in camp was Babe s bel low and I m not sure that was a tune But with unior and Senior Cr chestra and a line band, all under the direction of Mr Smith Ballard now lacks no music The junior and Senior Glees for both boys and girls and the Choir led by Miss Charlton, fit harmoniously into the musical pattern, too, and with the Triple Trio and Double uartet provide a large part of the entertainment for school programs The calloused hands of a lumberjack aren t very useful when it comes to doing any kind of art work, perhaps a good art course under the direction of either Mr Nobles or Miss F Wilson could have taught them as much as it has taught the Ballard artists Making defense posters learning handicraft, lettering figure drawing and studvmg art fundamentals have helped artistic Ballardites to develop their skill If'1Lii f RR'.D nf um WT , mm HS 0 4,,. . ..

U FRANK ROWLEE 20 'Nw -11 ,sf Keeping up with a fast-changing map of .1 faslschanging world Nlarjofie Smith points out cities of current interest in a Vfor History class, HISTURY Why is it that the me in your history classes? If anyone ever made history, I did! But when I stop to think about it, I guess there are men a lot greater than I am in this world. After all, look at President Roosevelt and General MacArthur. I don't wonder the history department has adopted a policy of stressing current events such as studying the buyers' problems in Consumer Economics or delving into the labor vs. capital question in United States History. That way the students can better understand what is going on in the world of today. It sounds good to me and I'm sure y never talk about ' you students must like it. FRANK ROWLEE.
