LITERARY ECONOMICS Economics is a science that treats of the production and use of wealth, and political economy. The economics course in the senior year is one of the most interesting and valuable courses in the whole four years at the high school. Economics prepares and broadens che mind of every student. Often the course seems difficult and uninterest- ing due to so many theories and prac- tices, but after research work and ex- planation by the instructor, the laws seem more practical and understand- able. The study aids in helping the student form definite opinions and attitudes. During the last part of the term a course in Problems of Democracy is undertaken. l feel that this course is most valuable as important problems concerning crime, adolescence, war, unemployment, and others are thor- oughly discussed. It presents to the student from a birdseye view fdue to lack of time, a cause, the situation, results, and var- ious methods applicable to solving the problem. Current events at home and abroad often result in interesting and educa- tional discussions. Economics broadens the views and aids the student in obtaining a funda- mental idea of government, condi- tions of buying, selling, and wealth. A course in economics tends to open our eyes to our present day problems, arouse our interests, and make us feel more at ease when well informed on topics of the day. The economics course helps formulate ideas and de- velop within the individual a more logical reasoning and an ability to think problems through. K. Eileen Gaylord, '38.

Then Tex felt something prod him in the back, and his guns clatter- ed to the floor, and his hands shot straight above his head as he said, All right, you have the drop on me, whoever you are. The stranger said nothing, but just remained motion- less. V Then the man who had spoken in che low, gruff voice came out from behind the door. Hfe was about the size of Tex, but had a darker complexion. Okay, Pedro, l've got him covered, he said as he step- ped towards Tex. Now, Tex, l think it is about time you were put out of the way because you know too much. Tex didnit say anything but his foot shot backwards and kicked the object behind him, then he lurched forward at the killer and knocked him over. Crash! went the object behind him. Billy! Jack! What are you doing up there in the attic? said a com- manding voice from below. Aw heck, a fellar can't even have any fun, said Billy as he turned around to see what he had upset. There tumbled on the floor, was a
