Chemistry Chemistry is a fascinating and interest¬ ing science. It is the science which deals with the chemical changes of matter. Part of the Molecular Theory states: all matter is made up of molecules. Molecules are in¬ visible to the naked eye, in fact, about one million average molecules laid side by side are one millimeter long (1 25”). These molecules are composed of what scientists call atoms. But still further, these atoms contain protons and neutrons in its nucleus. These nuclei have electrons in orbit rotating around its centre. These atomic struct- tures of molecules are very important to chemists, who synthesize different com¬ pounds to create new chemical compounds. Chemistry is useful to geologists, physi¬ cians, physicists .photographers, as well as to you and me. Iberville April 25 we, the Blumenhof High School students, made a trip to a Hutterite colony. The main purpose of the trip was to see the Hutterites ' way of living and to study the culture of these people. The first thing that caught our atten¬ tion when we arrived at the colony was a cat being chased by four big greyhounds. Lucky enough that cat made an escape; if it had not, it would probably have given up its nine lives. The fellow who acted as our guide was in grade ten; something which was very un¬ usual for most of the people only have grade seven. He was a very friendly and polite fellow, even quite talkative. He show¬ ed us around and explained the different things to us and also ate with us. We notic¬ ed and he also explained, that all things were in common. Work was carried out collectively by men and women under the management of a boss who is assisted by several other bosses. The preachers, he said, were in charge of the spiritual side of life. Their meals are taken in common refectories. The jobs are rotated to avoid boredom. On rare occasions the boys get Colony a little pocket money when they go to the city. We noticed that the people strive to maintain a high level of self-sufficiency, although modern farm machinery and trucks have made them increasingly de¬ pendent on society. Due to the industry and good management of the colony, they are economically successful. It seemed to us that the boys had had a better training in guidance than the girls, for the girls could be seen staring at us from behind houses and into windows while we ate; while the boys visited with us and occasionally made a joke about the girls. Even though there are many things about such colony life we would not like, there are also things that are very good. Close integration of community and religion and the good organization in each colony have increased not only social controls but also individual security, leading to a relatively small number of mental disorders, crime, and other social problems.
