Wafoaraf Sienced If you happen to be strolling about the campus in early fall or spring perhaps you will notice groups of students intently studying the foliage of the various acer, quercus or populus trees or the blossoms of the dog-toothed lily or the marsh marigold. Be it known that these seekers after knowledge are members of Dr. Henderson's botany classes. If you are awakened in the dead of the night by the howling of your neighbor's cat, be it known that the cat anatomy boys have collected another specimen. If you live in a dormitory and your roommate decides to mother a homeless squid, be it known that she's only studying zoology this year. Dr. Henderson and Dr. Stewart conduct such natural science courses as astronomy, genetics, entomology, geology, and many others too numerous to mention. Headquarters for natural science students may be found on the second floor of Hanna Hall. Paramecium, Arnoeba,

y eyocwfmenf 0 14556 Mrs. Nelle Pyles Reinhart Head of Department We often fail to realize that lvyhurst which is located on the corner of South Washington and Greene Streets, and which houses the Department of Music, is a definite part of our college organization. Although lvyhurst is several blocks from the main college buildings, it is one of our most important divisions. Among the instruments taught there are piano, organ, and violin. Voice is also a feature of the department. Students in music need not necessarily be regular college students, although many students do work in music while pursuing a regular academic course. Recitals are given from time to time at lvyhurst, and junior and senior recitals are given in Alumni Hall at various times during the school year.

Merchant Although one might think that this field is entirely for students who plan to enter the ministry, this is, however, not the case. Since Waynesburg College is affiliated with the Presbyterian Church and, since it is required that every student complete eight hours of religious education before graduation, everyone, at some time or other, spends a great deal of time with either Prof. Harry E. Gardner, Dr. Edson, or Mr. Harold L. Merchant. For several years Prof. Gardner and Dr. Edson carried on the work alone but now Mr. Merchant has joined the staff to ease the load, teach- ing Bible to many students. This department works hand in hand with the Parish Proiect, the various pro- fessors helping to direct student religious activities and, since each of these professors is also an ordained minister, conducting services at pastorless churches throughout the immediate district, feeling that the college and church must promote the welfare of the whole community of which they are a part.
