As all these clippings relate to the lives of graduates of the class of ‘23 they are here published with the hope that a great many of the former graduates will be interested in them.

Wilson Observatory located in California has by applying different trigonometric and geo- metric functions measured the distance from the moon to the sun.

Nov. 3, ‘35—Miss Leila Smith a former resident of this place, will give a exhibition of her spiritual powers in the local Community Build- ig on Thursday of next week. If you wish to communicate with any of your deceased friends you can not afford to miss this rare oppor- tunity.
