oienoe Department One of the greatest values of the stucly of science is that it develops the stutlent's appreciation of his sur- roundings. lt also encourages his reasoning power anal makes him less likely to accept itleas not based on truth and facts. VVell-equipped laboratories aitl the stutlent in his quest of the facts of the four sciences taught at Classen. The four are biology, chemistry, geology antl physics. There are also show cases in the hall to show the students evidences of science that are about us. Kathryn Webb antl Billie Nlarie Askew try to figure out the puzzling intricacies so prominent in fractional clistillatiou. FIRST ROW-HOWARD BROVVN: B. S. and M. S. from O. U.g CARL S. WOODWARD: B.

g .,. V n rt Department Such varied and numerous uses of art have been developed that it now offers many vocational opportunities. Since it is used extensively for commercial means, art is no longer considered an impractical frill, and art education takes its place along with other vocational courses. Art courses today offer training in fashion design, figure drawing, inter- ior decoration, crafts, and commercial design, as well as painting. All types of art work, especially crafts, may become a pleasant and useful hobby. Art education is also an important factor in raising the general standards of taste, for it stimulates a desire for the finer and more beautiful things of life, and teaches the student to appreciate art and beauty wherever it is found, thus increasing his enjoyment of life.
