THE ANNUAL Last year ' s Annual staff bemoaned the lack of a suitable room for the dinner pupils to eat in. This year the Board of Education fitted up the room in the north¬ east corner of the basement, in truly regal style. Mission oak tables, hot plates, coffee-pots, etc., etc. The corridor leading to the room was fitted with lockers to hold the dinners safe during school hours. After a suitable “opening” by the faculty the room was turned over to the pupils. The room between Miss Moore ' s and Mr. Baldwin’s was supplied with the best magazines and equipped as a read¬ ing room. The dinner pupils certainly have it on the rest of us now. They are not compelled to walk to some distant home, swallow their dinner whole, and rush back again. All they need to do is to step into the dining hall, eat a nice, warm dinner and then retire to the rest room or library. Dinner pupils, we congratu¬ late you. OBSERVATORY. Astronomy is one of the most interesting studies. It is one of the oldest of the sciences. The earliest records left by man tell of his interest in, and study of, astronomy. As you look out into infinite space, you seem to see the stars gliding across the inside surface of a great, hollow sphere. Among them we see Sirius, the dog star; Arcturus and fiercely-burning Procyon sending its waves of light so distinctly to the eye. These blazing suns are awe-inspiring sights in themselves as looked at with the naked eye. But get a telescope, even a small one, and your vision will be increased wonderfully. By it you will be enabled to see some of the wonders of the solar system ; the beautiful rings of Saturn, the canals of Mars, and the stripes of Jupiter. You can see the great nebulae in Andromeda and Orion, where new worlds are in process of creation. You can see double and triple stars. And as you look and realize that their distances are ex¬ pressed in hundreds of thousands of astronomical units, then and then only are you given a proper conception of the universe in which you live. - 11 -
