Projection Club Adviser. Science and Mathematics CIENCE and Mathematics, although they are here combined, are in truth separate departments. At least two years of Mathematics are required of students before graduation. In the first year Mathematics is entirely Algebra, in the second year Geometry, and in the third a study of advanced Algebra and Solid Geometry is given. Included in the Sciences are Physics, Biology, General Science and Chemistry. All are most interesting. The high school has some of its best faculty members represented in this department. Mr. Wilfred White, a new teacher this year, has very efficiently filled the position of Physics instructor. The Biology is taught by Mr. Edwin Lotz. Mr. Ralph Manley in the Chemistry cause and Mr. Rudolph Jordan in the General Science department have both proved capable and well-liked instructors. The Sciences and Mathematics are two of the most POPUQX' and necessary studies given in the Burlington High School, A Page Nineteen l T J

English E English Department in the Burlington High School is one of our most efficiently supervised and most valuable branches of the curriculum. Every student is compelled to take at least three years of the subject and is urged to take four. This course is especially necessary to those students who are planning to continue their education after graduation No school prepares its students for college entrance in this department better than the Burlington High. School. The course covers both English and American literature, in which the students read the more important classics, and English composition. It is excellently supervised, being taught by some of our most capable faculty members. Although it is considered one of the hardest courses in the high school by the students it is undoubtedly one of the most in- teresting and helpful. Page Eighteen
