Have you wondered why the clouds were so gorgeous at sunset? To answer such questions and to stimulate individual thinking and observations which causes Nature to reveal herself, is the purpose of the Nature Club in Room 102. The trees and plants have a definite purpose, and plan of unfoldment, in their growth. This purpose and this plan we learn through observations made at dif- ferent periods of growth. Insects, reptiles, furbearers, all give us lessons in life purposes and show us their place in the plan of our universe. We not only observe but must record our findings for future use. The stars lead us to behold the glory and the immensity of the firmament, to sense the power of being, and to learn the adjustment of all by laws. The heavenly bodies are obedient to the law and power of Him who guides all. Therefore we observe, record, and reach conclusions of our own, thereby grow- ing in power to investigate intelligently. Miss Neill is the adviser. Fifty-Eight ,

The mathematics clubs aim to help the members meet the demand of society for greater accuracy and skill in the arithmetical computations used in common business transactions. To further this aim three clubs have been organized. The work consists of drill 0n the fundamental processes in integers, fractions, and decimals, and on all types of percentage problems. Many problems involving situations arising in daily life have been solved. ' . But the work has not been all drill. Mathematical games and contests have been introduced to add interest and enthusiasm. Our idea has been to do the most we can, the best we can, and to find pleasure in doing it. We hope that the habits of application to the task at hand and of analyzing situations, and the self confidence that comes from having succeeded in a specific piece of work, will carry over into our class work and into life. Thus we feel we have rendered service to our members, to our school, and to society. Misses Emmett, Schonebaum, and Brown are the advisers. Fifty-Seven

Why bother to learn about the world, its flora and fauna? To some of the boys and girls these seem like foolish ques- tions. Isnit the great out-of-doors a part of our home and life? Does not our pulse beat faster and our soul almost burst with some pent up emotion when the first warm days of spring come after many long below zero days? Whether we look or whether we listen, We hear life murmur or see it glistenfi It is our life, a part of each one of us. How much bigger and fuller our lives are as we learn more of our surroundings! Two people took a three-hundred and fifty mile auto trip one hot summer's day. One reached the end of his journey warm, tired, and cross. As the auto speeded along, the other saw thirty-eight different kinds of birds and as many varieties of fiowers, including many strange new ones. Which had the happier day? .And so I say: Blessed is the one, who in early life, learns to know Nature and ' who feels her healing, restful, inspiring touch. He who is a faithful student of her will learn much of Godf, and say with the merry brown thrush sitting up in the tree: Oh, the world's running over with joy! The adviser is Miss Hoy. Fifty-Nine
