Show E. S. A. FACULTY MAKES ROUNDS CF Lit TOWNS The Emery Stake Academy faculty met with the parents and children of Lawrence, Elmo, Cleveland and Ferron the forepart of the weeii and would have met the, people of Huntington and Emery but for the presence of a scarlatina epidemic at the former place and whooping cough and the fact that almost everybody was away from home at the latter place - on Wednesday night the date set. i The visits to Lawrence, Elmo and , Cleveland were made Sunday morning, afternoon and evening, respectively, ! and good crowds were out in Elmo and Cleveland, though the Lawrence meeting meet-ing was not so weil attended. Excellent talks, readings and musical selections were given in all the towns, and a ' pleasant vein of sincerity seemed to underlie the whole proceedings. Prin. Hickman, in fact, claims that he en-' en-' joyed this pre-opening campaign more than any ever hel.i heretofore. The same " spirit was manifest at Ferron where the meeting house was crowded. Principal Hickman, Miss Woolfe of the English and dramatic departments; Prof. McQuarrie of the wood . ork and missionary dtpartments; Piof.Kuhre of ; the chemistry and physics.departments; : Sister Day of the dressmaking and j millinery departments anl incidentally : m itron of the school for tie coming school year; and Prof. Halverson of the ! music and athletic departments, as members of the faculty, gave excellent ! talks, readings and musical selections, i while Miss Leah Hickman and Mr. ! Erwin Jensen gave musical selections I and O. Sorenson jr. , who accompanied ! the party gave some very encouraging talks. Prof. Halverson, however, did not arrive in time to make the trips of the first day, but made up for his delay at Ferron, where every number on the program was heartily applauded and several encored. A meeting was scheduled to be held in Orangevilie last night. Altogether the 1911-15 school year promises to be bigger and better than ever before. It seems an assured fact that there will be some six or eight students or more from Lawrence; three or f'lur from Elmo: about sixteen from I Cleveland, an 1 no one can tell how many from Ferron. With the meetings meet-ings in the . .er towns not yet held, it is h.ir.l t i . ; timate the number that ..i!l . ttend from them, though the number promises to be at least 150 students. Inasmuch as the meetings in Hunt-: Hunt-: ington and Smery were necessarily . postponed, t..-. will likely be held af-i af-i ter school start; that the people of the 1 whole county may be able to meet the splendid set of teachers for the winter's i work. The Molen aid Clawson meetings I will be held tomorrow (Sunday) morning morn-ing and afternoon respectively, and in tlie even.ng of that day Castledale will have the pleasure of seeing and hearing the old and new members of the faculty. On Monday evening will be given the regular Academy opening ball and everything looks favorable to a record-breaking record-breaking crowd tnat will attend the same. The following, taken from a daily j paper, shows what the world at large . tiiinks of chemistry, the fourth vear subject this year being added to the courses at tiie Academy: Of the applied sciences chemistry is perhaps one of the most important. Its usefulness is daily increasing. The time is near at hand when the chemist' will be a necessary part of nearly every ; industry. In textiles, color making, , fertilizers, foods and drugs and in many: other branches of trade and manufac-' ture chemistry is of extreme im- i portance. ! The demand for specially trained j chemists is increasing. The extension j of the agricultural bureaus both by ' state and national governments and the j growth of food analysis are creating ' openings daily. The young man or -woman with an inborn liking for investigation inves-tigation and a mind that is quick at analyzing should consider chemistry as a possible occupation. Other important qualifications for a ; chemist are exactness, accuracy, thor- oughness and patience. A good physical i constitution is always of value in chem- istry, which often entails a considerable amount of physical work, j After graduation a special line of work can be taken up in one of the industrial in-dustrial establishments. Or a young man may take a position as assistant to another chemist and there learn the special line to be followed in all its practical phases. j The average pay of a chemist runs i from $12 to $35 per week. There are j chemists in speci il lines of work who: earn much more. The higher and better bet-ter paving positions are often connected connect-ed with managerial work. |
