C laz.f.fe.f A high school may be likened to a factory, turning out educated young men and women as its product. ln that sense it should be considered the ITIOSI important type of factory in the country because its product is vital to a democratic society. As factories need good equipment to turn out the best products, so the school needs its class rooms and laboratories provided with scientific heating, lighting, and ventilation, with comfortable seats, and with the particular apparatus required for each work room. That our new high school building is not lacking in these facilities can be seen from a description of the equipment to be found in the various class rooms and laboratories. Public speaking and drama students are to have a room especially designed for their needs. A small stage, a piano. and one hundred chairs compose the equipment. To the students who have been forced to use the noisy, echoing auditorium of the old liigli school this will bring great relief to the voice and mueli greater interest in the subject. The library is attractively and conveniently arranged and well furnished. lts equipment consists of eighteen library tables, one hundred and twelve chairs, card catalogues. a filing cabinet, four dictionaries on stands, and a charge desk. A wide variety of books from fiction to science will be found on the bookshelves around the room. The natural sciences biology, physics, and chemistry are to be well supplied with room and apparatus. Several new pieces of equipment are to be added in the biology room. An aquarium, a germinating table and incubator, and a screen for showing slides and moving pictures will make the work much more interesting than ever before. ln the physics room a new photometry table for tests in the transmission of sound is to be added. The chemistry laboratory is to be furnished with large permanent chemical work cabinets provided with sinks, running water, gas, bunsen burners and other apparatus. Chemical supplies will be kept safely in a stock room. The girls in domestic science are especially fortunate in having well-lighted rooms on the first floor for cooking and sewing laboratories and a demonstration room for cooking. The sewing room will contain six tables with thirty chairs, and seven electric sewing machines. The cooking laboratory will have, in addition to other ordinary equipment, six electric ranges, and the smaller demonstration room adjoining the laboratory, will have one electric range and other equipment. The student lockers will be conveniently located in special corridors on either side of the auditorium to avoid congestion in the halls. Each locker will be furnished with a hat shelf and several coat hooks. ln addition to present shop equipment, the manual training room will have four special lathes, each powered with a one-half horse power motor, and much special equipment. Wheii the Corvallis High factory opens next fall, its greatly improved machinery. directed by competent teachers, will once more resume the task of turning the raw material of pupil intellect and interests, hopes and ambitions, into a product designed to perform efficiently the work of life.
