The Grix Building should be destroyed for the following reasons: 1. It is unsightly. 2. It takes up valuable land which could be used for growing sugar beets. 3. It is unoccupied (except for the ghosts of bygone teachers and pupils.) 4. The bricks could be used to build a mausoleum into which could be cast the car casses of the students who expired in the last examin ations. We think it unsightly because:1. William forgot to give it a new garb of purity when he whitewashed the main building.2. It obstructs the line of vision so that the Herald staff cannot see the 12:20 P. M. street car in time to catch it. 3. The Grix Building is out of style. It reminds us of one of those old fashioned girls they don't build that model nowadays. We think the Grix Building takes too much valuable space because: 1. Sugar beets are Utah's most valuable crop and we should plant them in our flower pots, on our lawns, and especially where' the Grix Building now stands. 2. Weber needs a larger campus. The campus would look better without the building on it, in fact some students are prone to think that the campus would look better without any buildings on it at all. 3. Now that winter is com ing we could use the basement of the Grix Building tor a skating rink. Pupils learn more at skating rinks than they do at school any way. But if it is turned into this summer gaiety we would suggest that the roof be removed so that fresh air and snow could be enjoyed while the skating continues. We think the Grix Build ing is unoccupied because: 1. We miss the old familiar noises that used to emanate from the windows that insti tution. 2. We haven't seen anyone go in or come out of said building since Bulgar became a booze hound. We sent our reporter over to verify these facts. When he came back he handed in the following report, brief, but to the point, "I went over and knocked at the door but no one answered." Lastly, the bricks compos ing the Grix Building could be put to valuable use in the building of a mausoleum. 1. According to the latest reports, two-thirds of the English I students expired. 6. One-third of Dr. Terry s students passed out. 3. One-fourth of the sci ence students have severe cases of palpitation of the heart and are expected to be wafted into eternal bliss almost any moment. 4. A mausoleum, built of these substantial clays, would be a fit and lasting repository for the remains of those who tried but faltered. Therefore, for these reasons do we extricate ourselves from the entanglement of past traditions and solemnly swear that from now on, and forever in the future, we will be of this mind and opinion that the Grix Building should be razed, demolished, destroyed and otherwise disrupted. Besides we want to tear down the old institution just on general principles. Recently Professor C. II. Schidinore, Superintendent of Box Elder County Schools, requested the names and the grades of all Brigham students in this institution. Rc- nuests similar to this are coming in all the time, so students, watch your records.

Do Mormonism And Science Harmonize There have been many con flicting statements made re garding the relation between Mormonism and science Some have maintained that they absolutely disagree yet others find that they do not disagree. I will attempt, in the remainder of this theme, to show wherein they harmonize.The first argument of the scientist in regard to this matter, is the creation of the earth. Geologists have two explanations lor tins, namely; the Nebular Hypothesis and the Planetesimal Theory. These two theories are very similar in nature although they differ as to origin. The Nebular Hypothesis as given by Chamberlin and Salisbury, two very eminent geologists of today, accounts for the origin of the earth in this manner; "The sun, the planets, and the satellites were once parts of a glowing, rotating, spherical, gaseous nebula, which was expanded enough to embrace the whole space of the present system. The nebula was assumed to have shrunk. This shrinkage accelerated the rate of rotation, and this in turn increased the equatorial bulge which rotation developed. The progressive increase of cooling, rotating and bulging finally led to a separation of an equatorical ring. As the ring cooled and contracted, it was disrupted and its substance gathered into a planet whose orbit lay in the plane the ring had occupied. A series of rings, separated from the central mass formed the sun." The Planetesimal Theory-is very similar to the Nebular Hypothesis and differs only in that a group of small planets, called planetesimals, take the place of the gaseous nebulae as the constituents of the earth at the beginning. The fact clearly brought out is that scientists have no explanation for the origin of the materials which formed the earth. There can only be one explanation in my mind and that is that God created them. It is the onlv loeical and reasonable conclusion to draw. Whenever science at tempts to theorize on the ori gin of matter it completely tans. It assumes that matter existed before the earth was formed but when it endeav ors to explain where matter came from, it cannot do it. In the first chapter of Gene sis, Moses writes of the cre ation as follows: "In the beginning- God cre ated heaven and earth. And the earth was without form and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep, and the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters." God revealed to Moses that the earth was without form and void and that is in exact accordance with the Nebular Hypothesis and the Planet esimal Theory. In one it was a gaseous nebula and in the other an aggregate of planetesimals.Some maintain that God created the earth in seven days, while geologists cannot possibly imagine the earth being formed in less than millions of years. They have definite proof that some rocks found here on the earth are older by far than the time given in the Bible. The only chance for an argument here is on the definition of the word day. It should be ridiculous to maintain that in six days (of twenty-four hours each) God created the heavens and the earth. After a bitter fight between theologians and geologists, it was finally decided, but not until a vigorous search of the Mosaic records had been conducted, that a day in the original Hebrew referred more frequently to periods of indefinite duration. This then made clear to all that fundamentally science and theology did not disagree concerning the time of creation. There was another theory prevalent among the scientists after Lawson formulated a method by which he calculated the number years from the fall of Adam to the birth of Christ. Those calculations were placed in Bibles on the margin of the pages. He gave as the date of the fall of Adam, four thousand and four years before Christ. The very fact that these dates were printed on the edges of the pages was enough evi dence to show the fallacy of them. If they had been written in the Bible record we would have to beleive them, but as they are only the result of a man's guess we can discard them as incorrect. There have been some misunderstandings between scientists and theologians regarding the motion of heavenly bodies. In late years science has begun to recognize that there is a great governing planet which controls the motion of all other planets. In the Pearl of Great Price, Book of Abraham, Chapter II, Joseph Smith relates in very plain words that such is the case. He says: "And thus there shall be the reckoning of the time of one planet above another, un til thou come nigh unto Ko-lob, which Kolob is after the reckoning of the Lords time, which Kolob is set high unto the throne of God; to govern all those planets which belong to the same order of that upon which thou standest. And it is given unto thee to know the set time of all the stars that are set to give light, until thou come near unto the throne of God." This shows that Mormonism taught, long before science ever thought of it, that the stars and planets were governed by one large planet, Kolob. The Doctrine and Covenants printed 65 years ago mentions in a number of places the motion of the heavenly bodies, while science only lately states the theory of the solar system. Quoting from the D. and C. Section 88: verses 43-45, Joseph Smith writes: "He hath given a law unto all things by which they move in their times and sea- ons; and their courses are fixed; even the courses of the earth and the heavens which comprehend the earth and all the planets. The earth rolls upon her wings and the sun giveth his light by day and the moon giveth her light by night, and the stars also give th their light as they roll upon their wing's in glory, in the midst of the power of God." Joseph Smith, being poetical by nature, gives a poeti cal touch to his writings but does not overshadow the truth contained in them. His writings show that he is in absolute harmony with modern views as to the motion of the celestial bodies. And so in other questions which arise there is a harmony between Mormonism and science. Even in some of the most extreme cases there is no discord between the faith of the Mormon people and the beliefs and theories of the scientists.

Peterson of the U. A. C. attended the American Country Life Association Conference held in St Louis in November. Problems of the rural home and possibilities for develop ing' the rural communities were topics of discussion. The annual conference of College Presidents convened in Chicago in November. A careful study was made of the Purncll bill, now before Congress. This bill proposes to increase the federal appropriation for the experi ment stations in the several states. The "Y" news announces that the white fir tree standing at the foot of Mt. Timpa-nogas lias received a place in the "Hall of Fame" which is under the direction of the natural American Forest Association.This tree is considered the largest of its kind in the world and the only tree in Utah to be so honored. It is 110 feet high, 20 feet in circumference at the base and is supposed to be five hundred to one thousand years of age. Professor Willard Gardner of the U. A.

Know-les, president of the College of the Pacific, is reported to have said: "There is a magnificent system of schools in America, but no system of education. No definite step has been taken to unify secondary education although the unification of college courses throughout the Unit ed States has had a slight and indirect effect on the unification of secondary schools. The time has come when there must be a national sys tem of education. Dr. Terry has had one class during the last quarter which has been composed almost en tirely of boys. We say almost, because the class did have one co-ed. We of the staff have not deemed it advisable to publish this news before this time because it would no doubt cause a great confus ion due to the fact that there would be numerous reregis-tration in the Algebra class. Dr. Terry has stated that the one g'irl caused more dis turbance than all of the nine boys together, and he has therefore recruited two more girls for his Solid Geometry class. In this way he thinks that one girl will get less individual attention, which will be better for her as well as for the boys. We agree heartily and think that the Girls' Association (of which we ain't got none) should take immediate action in this matter to see that the boys are more evenly distributed in the classes. CONCERN The g'irl who simply sits and waits For a g'ood man to come along, Ain't worth the breath that one would take To tell her she is wrong. 7or good men ain't flowing round this world For every fool chicken to sup. You've got to put your sce-ers on And go and hunt him up. Some men are so dumb they couldn't have a brain storm big enough to get the inside of their scalps wet. Lots of people have brains but they keep them in stor age in some other persons head. Some people's heads are so empty that every time they snull you can hear the wind howl. If there is anything in. the Bible touching on the present style of Woman's dress, it must be m the book ol Kevc- ations. Only two kinds of animals sleep while standing up. These are horses and telephone users. Pror. Blaylock, "What do we call the period in a boy's life between the ages of 1G and 20 years?" Almon Brown, "The stone age."
