Our students are made aware of new conceptions and plans which are appearing in industry as men keep pace with the time in which they live. Through participation in a wide variety of projects, art students enrich their cultural background, and increase immeasurahly their usefulness to society. The broad vision, resourcefulness, co-operation, and talent which we encourage in art throughout our country will help promote international understanding, respect, and unity. Completely engrossed in their plaster casting are these ambitious art students. This should make up very nicely. Finger-painting is really an accomplishment, and these students look as if tllcylre enjoying it. Yes, this stained glass will add a Yuletide touch.

Page 30 Wiorking in widely separated territories and times, mathematicians have always been technically united. Euclid and Einstein have depended upon the same axioms, postulates, and formulae. The discoveries of the past today contribute to the calculation necessary to a telescope or a skyscraper. This unity will be invaluable in a world where great enterprises in travel and communication will involve en- gineers of many nationalities. A sister science to physics and chemistry, mathematics has been necessary to the amazing discoveries of our era. S0 international does the outlook of men working in these fields become that many
