In science classes students witnessed experiments in the sciences and learned theory. In physics classes one of the demon- strations showed the production and channeling of elec- tricity. Through such interesting things the Science De- partment increased the student's understanding of the subject he was studying. Experiments and demonstrations were also held in the other sciences that were taught at Edmondson. These were Biology and Chemistry. Through classes such as these Edmondsonians learned of their World. More emphasis than ever before was placed upon the sciences and upon its teaching. 537 uv' SUE MILES 4a...,, 'Q WILLIAM MULLINEAUX Miss Josephine Kelley and Mrs. Tillie Schonfield, not photographed, were also mem- bers of the Science Depart- ment.
