-l MATHEMATICS -Mt The mathematics department makes the girls aware of the development of form that is beautiful because of regularity. After studying geometry, we are able to see the lovely designs of the snow flakes and appreciate the individual symmetry of each one. Because of our natural love of form we enjoy making graphs which in themselves are pleasing patterns to the eye. In mathematics we learn how to think more clearly,. and we gain a certain satisfaction found in no other subject by successfully solving a difficult problem. Just as in our classroom we struggle with and over- come each mathematical example, in the same way later in life by facing problems and mastering them we restore the harmony which has been lost. The study of mathematics furnishes us with the knowledge of this subject which is necessary for everyday living. The home budgets, income tax, and investments require our knowing some mathematics to handle them intelligently. If one plans to go to college, she must take this subject which is not only important because of its own value, but also supple- ments other courses. I. Mrs. Stephens demonstrates a difficult problem to her geometry class. 2. Miss Patton helps Elsa O'Callaghan with her work in the bank. 3. Miss Claflin uses her spare time to sponsor the A.W.V.S. with Miss Davis, who is a teacher of English. Head of Department l Patton Sue E.

Head of Department La Verne Garrett Elizabeth Wellington Susan Leonard Gladys Proctor SCIENCE We pursue the intricate theme of science with a basic harmony of mathematics to be able to have complete command and intelligent use of our sub- ject. The science department strikes a major chord in our composition of subjects. This study of life opens our minds to the beauties of nature and the harmony in composition which we should try to bring into our lives. We are made aware of the importance of the smallest particle to complete a pattern or preserve a balance in the world of science. In this study we find that the lack of one substance will spoil a compound as one wrong note will ruin an entire composition. .lust as the planets proclaim their celestial music as they perform their essential tasks, we in our orbit of school life sing a smaller but still important song of our own. Our science classes reach their climax during laboratory experiments which awaken our senses as some new melody which we hear for the first time. In human biology we are al- ways aware of some form of rhythmic movement such as the even in-and-out of breathing or the beat of the pulse. Annie Sue Brown Venetia Cook I. Miss Garrett supervises Lucile Griser as she writes an experiment. 2. Sara McClam, Sarinthia How- ell, Virginia Wolfe watch a reaction while Mrs. Brown explains the results. 3. Absorbed in their work, Mar- tha Wiley and Miss Leonard work with a microscope.
