flllathvmatirz HENRY O1.soN, A.B. Henry Olson, Professor of Mathematics, known for his inexhaustible patience and his readiness to give his time and energy to help his students. is almost exclusively a Bethany product, being a graduate of 1901, and since 1903 he has been teaching Mathematics in his own College. However, he is not one of the kind whose ambitions of scholarship do not go beyond bare necessity, and most of the summers since have found him pursuing graduate work at the University of Color- ado and of Kansas.

History is a moving picture that portrays 2 the achievements and aspirations of the human race well 'as its failings. Its movements are the inoveinents of men. Its g purpose is chiefly to teach the methods and A principles of government as well as the cus- il tonns and ideals ot' the l1u1nan race. -i Professor George Herbert R-yden is per- 3 manent head of the department. His in- 1 fluence has not been confined only to the class room but has extended itself to the Qi conmruuiity at large. Through l1is elforts ll the Civic League became a flourishing or- ganization. Professor Ryden is this year pursuing graduatetwork at Yale, preparatory to re- ceiving' his Ph.D., from which institution he received his A.M. in 1910. l --,. .

The department is fully equipped with simple and compound microscopes, aquaria, charts, models, inculnators, ovens, microtomes, autoclavs and other apparatus needed in these courses. The general laboratory is a large and well lighted room fully equipped with tables, lockers, models, charts, exhibition cases, gas, water, etc., and altortls working space for 50 stu- dents. In addition to the general laboratory there are several smaller labora- tories fully equipped for advanced and special work. The department main- tains a store-room that is well stocked with apparatus, chemicals and ma- terial for dissection. In connection with the instructors' laboratory is found a private library containing several hundred volumes of texts, references, reports and periodicals which are available for students, use. An herbarium and a general museum of Zoological, paleontological and geological collections are located on the laboratory floor so that access to illustrative material is made easy from these sources. Additions to many of these collections have been by the specimens prepared during regular class work of the students. The department of chemistry offers thorough courses in general and ad- vanced inorganic chemistry, qualitative and quantitative analysis, assaying, metallurgy and organic and physiological chemistry. The general laboratory is well lighted and thoroughly ventilated and has ample table and locker equipment to accommodate 82 students. It is supplied with gas, water and electricity and provided with a roomy hood for experimenting with irritating and noxious gases. A separate laboratory is provided for advanced and more specialized work. This is equipped with hoods, gas and electric furnaces, ovens and other appliances for thorough work in advanced and industrial chemistry. A separate room which is well lighted and free from jars and laboratory fumes is provided for the analytical balances. The department maintains a well arranged store-room in which is found a complete stock of chemicals and ape paratus of all kinds. In connection with the instructors' laboratory is found a well selected private library consisting of texts, references and periodicals available for students? use. The department of physics is fully equipped to give thorough courses in elementary and advanced physics. The laboratory is well lighted and thor- oughly ventilated and supplied with gas, water and electricity in direct and alternating currents. A full line of apparatus is found in the laboratory for experimental work in mechanics, heat. sound, electricity and optics. It is also probable that a wireless station will be installed during the present year. The department of science also possesses two stereopticons, several series of lantern slides, an astronomical telescope, spectroscopes, mineralogical and technological collections, a work shop, a fully equipped drafting room and a plant for distilling water. Students wishing to prepare themselves for medi- cine, engineering, research or the profession of teaching will find ample facili- ties in the equipment at Bethany College. E. O. Ilnnnn.
