HEALTH 7 A few of the seventh grade girls are read- ing The Way We Feel in their health class. With Mr. Matthew's guidance they prepare reports and get many ideas for class discus- sion, which are for the main purpose of help- ing to explain the everyday common prob- lems of seventh grade students. HEALTH 10 The tenth grade pupils are practicing bandaging on each other. The parts band- aged are the head and the hand. The hand is wrapped in bandages and is held in posi- tion by a sling which, in an emergency, can be made out of almost anything that is handy. The head is bandaged as needed. HEALTH 11 Jerre Gehris explains the operation of the heart to the class. The heart consists of fou chambers, left auricle and ventricle and right auricle and ventricle. The heart serves as a force pump which, in turn, forces the blood to circulate throughout the body. The normal heartbeat is seventy to seventy-three times per minute. Twenty-four

oCan cj u a cj cS LATIN 9 Mrs. Kline is helping Nancy Henne with what appears to be a difficult but interesting Latin reading. In the reading Cassiopea is a beautiful and proud queen with a beauti- ful but not proud daughter, Andromeda. Cassiopea causes it that Neptune wants Andromeda as a sacrifice, but Perseus kills the monster that is to kill her. This is a sim- ple story of mythology. LATIN 10 In second year Latin Fern Ernst is trans- lating one of the Hercules stories. Hercules became insane and killed his wife and chil- dren. In order to atone for his sins he went to the Oracle at Delphi. There he was sent to the king Eurystheus, who gave him twelve labors to perform. No matter how difficult the labors were, Hercules, a modern super- man, accomplished them all. GERMAN 11 Paul Miller is painting his bench which is his German project. Projects of other Ger- man 11 students include painting Pennsyl- vania-Dutch designs on chests, chairs, small frying pans, benches and trays after which they are varnished. Much interest is taken in this project which gives a break to the usual German grammar. Twenty-five
