GEOMETRY CLASS The Solid Geometry Class consisted of, B. Stanley, R. Keelor, E. Copeland, D. Yeager, L. Overholt. G. Withrow, S. Fisher, E. Poole and A. Nebergall. All of the Plane Geometry Class of last year are taking Solid Geome- try this year which shows the firm belief that the students who have the ability to carry Geometry belong to the select few. We will have an insight into deductive reasoning and it will allow us to know what it means to prove a statement, and give us the privilege of standing upon the vantage ground of truth. The Plane Geometry Class consisted of, C. Wolfe, E. Hos- man, C. Bisbee, F. Ensign, D. Brinkman, E. Neuman, R. Trout, L. Chavis, L. Reamsnyder, H. Neeland, R. Edwards, R. Huntington, E. Fagan, V. Lindenman, and V. Powell. The two Geometry Classes as a whole proved to be exceptionally good this year and have made much progerss in this branch. The average grade of the classes was B which proves their ability to master difficulties. -Laura Overholt 1928

This was a relatively large number of pupils to express their interest in this science. Although our labratory equipment was somewhat limited, we were able to carry out many interesting and helpful experiments under the direction of our instructor, Mr. Lawrence. The majority of the members passed through this year with a few burns and minor explosions caused by too close contact with certain dan- gerous chemicals. We enjoyed the work as a class, and feel that our time has been very profitably spent. It has been a means of gaining practical knowledge to enable us to better appreciate the world in which we live. --Pearle Huffman 1928

THE LATIN DEPARTMENT UROMANI HODIERNP' Omne initum est difiici1e - Every beginning is difficult . Any Latin student, who has struggled to translate the books required for a four year course, readily agrees with this slogan. No matter how difficult the beginning, we find the end more helpful and interesting. Our civilization is largely derived from the Romans, including our laws, political customs, religion and even our every day customs. Few of us realize the extent of our obligations to the Romans. Not only have we taken over these laws but the very words by which we name them, are of Latin origin. The Freshman Class, with the exception of a few members, entered the first year Latin and have composed the largest class ever enrolled in this course. We hope they will keep on, for, as yet, they have only begun. The Virgil Class consisted of six members, namely, Sarah Fisher, Hazel Deter, Cloyce Wolfe, Rachael Beihler, Dorotha Brinkman and Eleanore Poole. - Bonum, Melius, Optimum Numquam requisat Dum bonum est melius Et melius est optimum -Eleanore Poole 1928
