I 1 ffm I ' HISTORY In the history room a green book called The American People reigns supreme, Its author is none other-mirable dictu-than Mr. David Saville Muzzey. Its contents are oft quoted, and, sad to say, sometimes forgotten, It furnishes material for friendly argument, heated debate, thoughtful discussion, and quiet in- trospection. This book is unheard of by freshmen, dreaded by sophomores, loathed by juniors, respected by seniors, and invaluable to Miss Northcutt, The knowledge gleaned therefrom promises to make capable citizens of us all, and who shall say that it may not bei instrumental in producing a future President? Knowledge of American History is not the only type to which we are ex- posed in Miss Northcutt's room. European and World History are also taught. If walls have ears, certainly the four which inclose Room Three must have a medley of historical facts. There is, in addition to the students and the walls, one more to whom has been imparted every current history day the most interesting knowledge of all. 'l'he receiver of this information is an object quite prominently viewed from the west windows--the pine! MATICS There is one question which has harassed freshmen since the introduction of Algebra into the curriculum. It is a very simple one of only three words, but a more tricky one could hardly be found. Perplexing problems there are in Geom- etry, Trigonometry, and the other Maths which are offered at M. H. but none are encountered which hold the sinister suggestions of this question. Students who are Math Sharks find it easily answered. Others find it a delightful brain- teaser and are not satisfied until they have figured out the correct solution. Still others tackle it with all the pep with which they play basketball. 'l'o all such persons the question is not a treacherous one: but there are countless numbers of us who stare at it with blank countenances. whose hearts beat jerkily at the thought of it, and to us it is decidedly a Waterloo. A capable Algebra teacher we certainly have, and it is through no fault of hers that the interrogation plunges us into a slough of despair. Indeed, without her timely assistance, we might make ourselves permanent residents there. The question is: X equals what? SCIENCE . The work of science is to substitute facts for appearances, and demonstration for impressions. -JOHN RUSKIN. In all your work stop and think. Constantly ask the question: What does this fact mean? You may or may not be able to answer the question, but that is no reason for dodging it. -V. N. SPALDING. Every intelligent person likes to know something of what is going on in other fields of laborithan his own. In a study of the sciences and the industries based on them we are brought into an intelligent and sympathetic touch with our surroundings so that we may come to know and understand life about us, ' We are led, too, to appreciate the lives and work of great scientists and to evaluate their contriliutions .to society. i .niu...r..- g...a,tgl'. - 1 '- asv.. 154.3 timing, 4,1 ice-L 4.
