Gym, together with its diversion from the other subjects, teaches the student valuable things in regard to sports, tumbling, and dancing. With the aid and cooperation of aspiring librarians, the library provides a valuable source for information on all subjects. 0 MR. VILHELM R.

What provision does the Constitution make concerning voting and voting qualifications? To what is the rising cost of modern living attributed? The answers to these and numerous other questions are answered when the student enters one of the social science classes proffered him by the interested and concerned teachers. If the student wishes to widen his knowledge of history and social conditions beyond the required acquaintance with civics and American History, he may choose one or both of the subjects, economics and world history. Mr. George Halvorson, Chairman of the Social Science Department, is very ably assisted by nine other discriminating teachers. 'MISS HAZEL PERRY- l Social Science, University of Minnesota, B.A., V. O.
