Students of all ages seem to enjoy some phase of science. From snails to stars, the popular question is Why? As freshmen, students begin their training in biology. As the courses of school proceed, botany, physical geography, physics, or chemistry may be elected. There must be an answer for everything somewhere, and in science boys and girls learn how to go about finding the answers. In tackling large problems or small, the soluf tion is found by reasoning, figuring, and applying knowledge. lvlathematics also has its place in every high school course. The required amount is one year of algebra, while geometry must be taken by those going to college.

' But the teachers who instruct in any phase of math know the importance of getting their pupils to respond to simple ideas presented in a complex manner and to develop strong reasoning powers. These are qualities valuable to everyone, child and adult. The social sciences cover a wide range of learning, each part being important in itself. Knowledge of history is not primarily learning dates and generals. The student who reads between the lines in history books can see the emotions of man. The understand' ing of how the tides of the human race turn and how one man's power can create or def stroy is vitally important to the graduate who plans to be active in his community. With civics and economics well studied, young boys and girls have a fairly complete background concerning politics and general economics. Civics elaborates on what his' tory books quickly mention in regard to government and its operation. Earning a living, the problems one meets, and how to cope with them is brought out in high school in the study of economics.
